Hûh?... What in the, I don't even...What kind of stupid argument is thát? How often does it occur that a smartphone spontaneously dies within the 1 to 2 year timeframe? And why should one _not_ hold on to his//her device for more than e.g. 4 years, if it still fits the need?
For example, mom is still rocking that SGS7 Edge of hers after 8 years already. Yeah, I know; plz keep the smartassery to yourselves because I can see the "old in the tooth" comments coming from a mile away. The phone still feels solid enough to not (physically) fall apart or softlock//brick itself at any random moment, and Facebook, WhatsApp, and Chrome are still working fine. Sorry scammers, no banking on her phone :P.
Point is, smartphone HW can last for quite some time, and having official support for an extended period of time is therefore quite a nice thing to have, without having to deal with custom ROMming. That is however, reflected in the pricing. It's pretty much like the situation with//on Linux. Ppl tend to forget that HW//device manufacturers that offer good FOSS support do factor that into the pricing, because of the age-old but always relevant adage of TINSTAAFL.

DarlingYuck, 20 hours agoI see no different between this phone and xiaomi 12S Ultra.... moreIf you don't like the camera island of a phone that's specifically made to feel more like using a real camera then don't buy it? Go for a Samsung or iPhone then but if you're gonna complain that their camera quality might be slightly worse than a phone specifically for photography then don't complain about the camera island. It's that simple.

DarlingYuck, 25 Jan 2025No 7 OS upgrades = no buy.And why you need 7 years of upgrades if you have only one year of warranty.
Dont tell me if your phone dies on a366 day of use you will pay 700 to fix it rather than buy new phone for 1000.

jiyen235, 15 hours agonot really, most people don't care about the features ... more
Or, maybe, those ""normies"" don't feel like having to jump through hoops to get the latest and greatest OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi etc and having to deal with all kinds of custom ROMs, alternative app stores, apps, frequency bands, warranty issues that may up rear their ugly heads, and want to go plug&play out of the box. If you want to go the official, supported route then the choice is usually limited to either the flagship version from Apple and Samsung, or a second fiddle phone (be it a next-in-line Pro version or flagship from a sub-top brand) from, a.o, the aforementioned brands. And since ppl do have a tendency to wanting to buy the latest and greatest, the (somewhat) lesser known brands tend to get overlooked in favour of Samsung and Apple, especially when e.g. a Vivo or Oppo decides to simply not release their Ultra versions, or even worse, differentiate even within the Ultra versions and releasing the lesser specced version as the ultimate Ultra version internationally. That won't help at all building some market clout. So like I said before, major props for Xiaomi for releasing their Ultra version outside of China as well.

Reasonable for normies essentially, in other words they're like Apple users but instead of iPhones they use Samsung phones.

HyperOS it's like MIUI with some extra layers of trashware and AI crap on top which explains why it's so much worse than MIUI in terms of performance.
You should try the older MIUI phones to get an idea how blazing fast a Xiaomi device can be.

DarlingYuck, 20 hours agoI see no different between this phone and xiaomi 12S Ultra.... moreThe camera island looks cool and I love it.. Samsung have same camera rings 4 years in a row.. and I'm s22 Ultra user but Samsung sadly got very boring with the same camera tech over and over.. s25 Ultra is a good phone but nothing special.. the AI stuff for me are more gimmicky..
I am a camera lover also 5000mah 45w charging for 5 years not cool at all.. have to say goodbye to Samsung still love my s22 Ultra

CargoJoe, 25 Jan 2025Wow an ultrawide downgrade. Seems like a missed opportunity... moreThe only downgrade I've seen this year is Samsung with the S-Pen. Chinese companies don't. There's a lot of people waiting for Xiaomi's 15 ultra and Vivo's X200 Ultra to make a choice. I heard OnePlus and Oppo are gearing up too. Google pixel is still out there. Bro the only people playing safe here are Apple and Samsung. They have diehard fans 😂

One UI 7 is even way polished than 6, now with vertical scrolls in app gallery as opposed to last year's horizontal scrolling. One UI outclasses MiUi. But like I said, MiUi has changed to hyperOS. Look at reviews from MrWhosetheboss or MKBHD. A lot has changed. It has all changed. They've also ditched the square app icon. It's like a fusion of iPhone and Google pixel.

Bro, there are over 10 major android phone companies dishing out tons of phones this year. There's plenty of choice. Oh... Last I heard was that the red magic was lacking in zoom capabilities and the main sensor isn't as good as these with camera bumps 😂
