    Religious Playboy , 03 May 2021I agree most people are switching away from the walled Gard... moreI am from India. There are lot of guys who were previously using Apple or Samsung flagships. Last year, They wanted an upgrade, were disappointed with the Exynos inside Samsung and lackluster leaks of the iPhone 12.
    These folks seemed super happy with their decision to avoid Samsung and Apple last year. Plenty of them saved around Rs.40k by ditching weak iPhone 12 Pro Max in favor of Mi 10 ultra. So this year with the worldwide mi 11 Ultra launch, they know which brand they going to stick to.

      On one end, they say, apps and games are better optimized for iOS.
      When the test doesn't go their way, they say it isn't optimized for A14 chip.

      Their A14 GeekBench scam is exposed.
      The chip throttles badly and is losing in speed tests as well.
      Not to forget the total battery hog that is 5g. So much for the 5g marketing.

          Religious Playboy , 03 May 2021I agree most people are switching away from the walled Gard... moreYeah I switched to Galaxy s21+ (Snapdragon) this year. Coming from iOS, used it for about about 8-9 years before I got tired.
          I got tired of the bugs on iOS which needed constant fixing every time a new version was launched. And the restricted nature of iOS was the final nail in the coffin.
          Android is such a maintenance free OS.

            It's my first Android for about 10+ years

            Using iPhone for long long time and I couldn't be more happier with my decision to leave iOS.

              There are so many people here who have switched to Samsung, Mi, Oppo and others.

                Their best days like Sony, LG, HTC are behind them.
                Sales will steadily go down with the lack of innovation.

                  Anonymous, 03 May 2021Please don’t mention about Genshin Impact. This game is poo... moreI am getting 55fps and above on Genshin Impact with highest quality on Mi 10t pro (SD865).
                  MI Once again beating overrated Samsung..

                  Lenovo legion giving constant 60fps, same for blackshark 4 pro which cost €320-€500.
                  Every Snapdragon 865/888 flagship giving 50fps and above while iPhone barely going past 45fps. Can you imagine a 400$ phone outperforming your 1500$ ToyPhone??

                  Reason why Samsung does so poorly is the same reason why Apple does poorly which is the absence of dedicated cooling.

This game is poorly optimised as I have also played it in a SD865 Android (S20 FE 5G) and it lags even at medium settings, yet the other demanding games run very smoothly. The servers aren’t even stable, there are quite many bugs in the game. If you join the community on Facebook or Discord you will realize how an utter mess this game is.

                          Having poor performance in a single game does not dictate a phone is weak etc. so grow up.

Watch TechTablets... moreI am sorry, but I never watch this "Gary explain", but allow me to share that, when I am charging my iPhone 12 on the fast charger, and if I do not have a fan blowing at me, it does throttle after 5 minutes of Genshin Impact.

                            The game will slow down to a painful 10 frames per second. I am not complaining though, just highlighting my experience. I had used a ROG 2 before, and trust me, I can never feel it throttle.

                            Don't know about Black Shark, but throttling exist in every phone. It depends on your usage and the games you play. Don't be like my friend who tells people how good his phone is as it never throttle, but in reality he plays low-end games like Candy Crush and use FB only.

                                    Antutu exposes it. 40% drop in performance. Thank Apple for this thermal throttling nightmare

                                      The Chinese editions do have NFC, but the European editions don't have NFC. The UK editions are not available as yet to pre-order. But black shark have said the UK editions will be available sometime in may. Maybe there is a delay to possibly include NFC or a software update once launched. Who knows...

                                        To all who's interested, there will be a software update at some point for the global/international versions for the black shark 4 to bring NFC.
