AnonD-754814, 03 Mar 2020This review unit was with early software. Apparently according to a commenter over on Sammobile, the camera issues cannot be overcome due to the method of focusing?
Is this true?

Been thinking.
Was this review based on the initial firmware or proper public release firmware, for which I believe that there is already an update for.
I really can't believe that Samsung would be so naive to release their latest flagship phone with so many (what I see as significant) flaws in it.

They recently did for the Galaxy S10.
The device indeed has matured beautifully.

That guy said Samsung made iPhone display based on Apple research-design.
And that is rubbish.
Can you name a iPhone part which is designed by Apple except the SoC ?

Also most reviewers lack a certain manner of maturity and patience, not bothering to follow up and re-review the device after firmware updates, checking for camera and battery performance, among other things. That's why nobody really know how long the batteries of 100W quick charging phones really last.
Most reviewers probably don't even know the complete list of setting on phones, and don't bother asking or researching. To be fair to them, they have timelines to follow, and the only person who suffers, is the customers.

The Last Oracle, 02 Mar 2020This is from the other thread on gsmarena.com, regarding th... moreI'm not a samsung fan or user, but I agree with this. Phone manufacturers most likely will give improvement in the future updates for their flagships (like Huawei, samsung, apple, sony, google). Sometimes also for their midrangers (but don't hold on to it). It's pretty normal if in initial release, something is still not optimize yet.
The problem with reviews are they just gonna review these devices in the begining, but rarely do a revisit after a couple updates. This is due to a lot of phones that being review are just being lend by manufacturers to the reviewers, so they only have a couple days (or might be a week) to review the devices.

Kendra Shields, 02 Mar 2020You are amazing my friend:) Thank you for this informative ... moreI would advice you to wait for atleast 2 firmware for the S20 Ultra (and the other S2p phones) to release.
1 is already in the offing with improvements in autofocus (?) and image quality, both for photos as well as for video. The price will also reduce after a few weeks (6-12).
The P40 will be a great phone, but whether it will be better than the S20 Ultra, will only be open to scrutiny after the S20 Ultra gets 2 firmware updates. Also, the lack of Google Services, UNFORTUNATELY, is Huge.
The 11 Pro Max is a great phone, and though I love the video quality (especially with FilmicPro) I don't really like how it takes photos. They have way too much saturation and the white balance is absolutely rubbish. Everyone looks like a badly touched up wax idol out of Madame Tussaud's.
Wait for a few weeks. You wont regret it.

This is from the other thread on gsmarena.com, regarding the S10 lite
(https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s10_lites_first_firmware_update_adds_super_steady_at_4k_other_camera_upgrades-news-41784.php)
"The first update for the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite brings new capabilities to the phone’s camera. Despite its name, the device straddles the line between the S10 and S20, having the design and some of the features of the latter.
The biggest improvement that comes with this update is that the Super Steady video mode is enabled at 2160p resolution (even the S20 flagships are still stuck at 1080p-only Super Steady, but that will probably change soon)."
For all the whiners and all the genuine feedback givers (the brethren of yours truly), the S20 is destined for some kickass camera features and improvements, via a (few)firmware update(s).
Be patient and let Samsung listen to what needs to be worked on and improved.

I want to either buy the S20 Ultra or the 11 Pro Max. Do you know which is best camera-wise?
Or should I wait and get the Huawei P40 Pro?
I hope you see my post.
