@GSM arena, BY what means do you place S20+ as the no 1 choice? It has exynos 990 process in rest of the world. Only in UA it has sd 865. So while making your list, take that also into account. In that case Samsung S20+ will never make it to the top. Exynos processor heats and also drains battery very quickly

My experience with four Xperias has been beyond horrendous, they - literally - fall apart and Xperia XA1 has a serious manufacturing error; the borders of the touch screen start dying after a few months of usage. There is plenty of forum threads about the issue I sadly experienced myself as well with two XA1. The phone turns unusable and Sony refuses to take a stance on that. They don’t care about their customers.

        I've got my Samung Galaxy S20 plus for some 2 months now (Exyons version). My overall experience with it is very good, with only downside from this phone is some battery overheating here and there, but 120 Hz refersh rate works great, and the camera photo quality is at the superb level day and night.

          This is out of date. The Sony Xperia 1 II is the flagship to go for. Would never go for an iPhone SE either when you have the Sony Xperia 10 II.

            Where i can find buyer guide in gsmarena android app actually?

                          Oneplus 7t pro is one of the best flagship phone in 2019.

                            So... Sony makes it, but not the Vivo Nex 3?

The problem with phones this days is that every person wants the newest, most expensive, and most popular phone and due to that companies have lost their passion for making the best specs phones.
