    ABF Media, 04 Nov 2021"That's because apple has to fit Face ID sensors ... moreIndeed. It's always good to have multiple unlocking ways

      HaterzSuckkkkk, 04 Nov 2021"How is it better implementation when it fails with a ... moreBoth honor magic 3 Pro and Mi 11 Ultra are better devices than handicapped buggy mess of iPhone 13 Pro Max.
      Check out tech spurt 1 Month review, he points out how many bugs still haven't been fixed on the 13 pro Max..
      He also calls out other reviewers for not pointing out the same.
      Then we have golden reviewer with his gold standard analysis exposing multiple brands..1250 euros for this buggy mess?? Ewww!!

Apple fans just praise whatever Apple does and considers it to be automatically better then everything else, that is despite the fact that features better then iPhones are already present on other phones but iFans poke fun at it. Later they go on to sing praises if Apple does the same

            HaterzSuckkkkk, 04 Nov 2021"How is it better implementation when it fails with a ... moreFace Id doesn't work with a mask on... Stop lying.
            Apple had one year to fix it they didn't because the company doesn't care about its customers

            "Too bad that the back camera design is absolutely horrible."

            Classic change of the topic when you lose the argument.
            It's way better than horrible gas burner design on iPhone.
            This one stands out while no way to know difference between newer iPhone and old model.

            " I would say honor's dual punch hole takes up more space than apple's new notch, since it's lower than the notch"

            No it doesn't, you get more notification icons with honor's implementation. Even after reducing the notch, the apple implementation is still poor.
            The 3d biometric system is the same secure one.
            Just accept that a Chinese brand once again showed Apple how it's done.

              ABF Media, 04 Nov 2021"That's because apple has to fit Face ID sensors ... more"How is it better implementation when it fails with a mask every time??"

              LOL, apple already has a working Face ID system that works with masks.

              Magic 3 pro?

              Too bad that the back camera design is absolutely horrible.

              I would say honor's dual punch hole takes up more space than apple's new notch, since it's lower than the notch.

              Plus, their 3d face unlock only uses a ToF sensor, which is less advanced than apple's system, which uses dedicated components for the most security.

              I heard that you say that the mi 11 ultra was the best android. Why are you using a so called "inferior" android as a comparison?

                HaterzSuckkkkk, 04 Nov 2021" "That notch is such a piece of tech, better th... more"That's because apple has to fit Face ID sensors under the display, which no other android company can do. No hypocrisy there, apple just has the better implementation."

                How is it better implementation when it fails with a mask every time??
                They had one year to fix things but cheap non innovative company as usual never cares about its customers.
                Android has even better implementation. Apple should learn from honor that gave 3d secure face unlock along with in display fingerprint scanner on their magic 3 Pro.
                It never fails with a mask as in-display fingerprint scanner takes over and when you can't touch the phone, face unlock takes over.
                Once again android showing Apple how it's done. Cheater company don't want to give dual solution like honor in order to reduce component cost and make more profit.

                    L.O.R.D, 02 Nov 2021That is true. It is almost like a tradition, for Android ph... moreCertainly, microsoft introduced ARM chips on windows.

                    Apple did it 20 years later.

                    Nobody is going to argue that microsoft's implementation is better than apple's.

                      "That notch is such a piece of tech, better than holes on those Androids"
                      Next year "Punch hole feature in latest iPhone 14 is such an innovation"
                      "

                      That's because apple has to fit Face ID sensors under the display, which no other android company can do. No hypocrisy there, apple just has the better implementation.

                      "
                      "Human eye cannot even distinguish beyond 326 pixels, on the Retina Display" and then praise Apple for introducing the Super Retina LED on iPhone X because it's sharper and better. Before that they be like, "LCD is the best because it's the Apple Retina LCD"
                      "

                      That sharpness is just when you are pixel peeping. Apple's Retina LCD was already great for it's time, and super retina is a even bigger leap.

                      "
                      "One doesn't need more then 120 hz on an iPhone because the OS is so optimised" but after Pro Motion they are like " The Pro Motion is a better implementation of 120 hz because almighty Apple did it"
                      "

                      You need to learn some addition, dude. A 120hz display+more optimized software is better than 120hz+less optimized software. Especially since more optimized software by itself is only slightly worse than 120hz+less optimized software.

                      "
                      "Android people just care about numbers. We don't care about those spec-sheet comparisons" but after the Apple event they be like "The Apple chip is ahead in all the benchmarks, so it is the best"
                      "

                      The M1 is not only ahead in benchmarks, it's far more ahead in real-world usage. Get your facts right.

                        -Trix-, 04 Nov 2021"Samsung global share is increasing every year, "... moreI believe Apple users should be forced in a way or another to switch to Android or Harmony OS. The first idea would be to ban Apple products in certain regions for security reasons, then for the US to apply antitrust laws against big corporations. Apple should be treated as counterevolutionaries. Instead we could promote a prime competitor from outside the US. Harmony could evolve to become independent from Android, and maybe KaiOS will be adapted to smartphones as well.

                        If we went back to the 2000s where every manufacturer had their own phone OS that would be great

                          Anonymous, 03 Nov 2021Take a look at this first https://www.counterpointresea... more"Samsung global share is increasing every year, "

                          No it's not, clearly from your link we can see the trend is down 2019Q2 21% 2020Q2 20% and the biggest drop came this year like we all know how Samsung sales aren't what Samsung expected. 2021Q2 18%

                          Also new fresh data just came for Europe market and Samsung is heavily down there in Q3. From 35.8% to 30.4% Sametime Apple up from 17.6% to 22.1%

                                  Read what I said: "specs aren't the only thing that decides on a phone".
                                  I never said specs don't matter.
                                  And, the iPhone 5 doesn't have the latest IOS 15.

                                  Nice try dude!

I pick my phones based on features, not spec sheets. Heck i even mentioned the TouchID, since they use it on the lower end iPads.
                                    But keep putting words intro my mouth. Trying to make me look bad.

                                    Ofcouse i like Samsung devices they are very few who have the features i look for.
                                    Oh and iPhones doesn't have the features i look for so idk what you mean by that last part either.

                                      So why don't all you guys revert back to iPhone 5 then ? Specs do not matter, right ? Why does Apple brag about a faster chip every year then ? They could be using the same every year as specs do not matter. Specs are just for Android people (those silly poor people with logic)
