    Its a good phone. If they had to add a higher capacity battery phone would have been even more thicker.

          IpsDisplay, 25 Aug 2021Still a bad test.. they don't have same processors ... moreBattery consumption is higher during web browsing because of non black background.
          Afcourse this can be fixed with dark mode inside browsers

                People want mobile cpu with power of desktop, 120/144Hz, screen brighter than the sun.
                But with battery endurance of feature phones.

                You can have power or larger battery endurance. This is why midranges and low ends last way more despite using chips of weaker litography like 7, 8 or 10nm.

                  Anonymous, 25 Aug 2021Samsung yet again cheapening out on cooling on their flagships It is almost as big as ipad mini.
                  Cooling should not be necessary considering larger body loses heat much easier.

                      Battery savings on these OLED screens are negligible

                        No information about mi mix fold as an alternative. The only other foldable on 888.
                        And no, mate x2 was not a paper device, you can still buy it on the official site for the announced price. There are tens of thousands reviews there, people are actively buying it.
                        Very poor comparison

                              Bigger the screen size, bigger the battery consumption.
                              Snapdragon 888 is also power hungry.
                              Overall battery endurance rating is good, only let down in numbers due to poor standby time

So it's still the same five cameras in my book. I'd rather see Samsung utilizing a much more useful front ultrawide camera instead of a much more useless front depth sensor.
