Regarding I Phone it does not care for user feedback its positive side is it's clean operating system but it's not user friendly & is money minting machine.

Can you please add newer versions of benchmarks to Samsung Galaxy s23 ultra? antutu v10 benchmark: 1514502 source: https://www.antutu.com/en/ranking/rank1.htm (number 6 in list) geekbench v6: 9256 source: https://browser.geek bench.c...

100x zoom is a feature that is rarely used unless you wanna click the moon, apart from that its of no use but good to have it on a phone.
