Are you blind or stupid. I already mention the top phone score.
As I stated, the majority of the devices were within 5% margin.
175 vs 151. So does that mean those other phones are trash or is it typical you just wanna trash Samsung?
You are just like any other hater, when facts are thrown in your face you can't talk.
Also, that Hwawei device, why do you care about it? Assuming you live in the US, you cant even buy it. Which means you would have to pay double to import it which would make it 4 times more expensive vs the S25U.
I know stupidity knows no bounds, but I think you found a way to exceed that.
I don't care about a product that I can't buy locally at a retail store. It would be no different than you trying to tell me how great a Lamborghini is over a Toyota, when you can't afford the more expensive option.
When all those overpriced Chinese toys are available in 200 markets including the one I live in, then we can talk. For you to even try to argue for a phone you can't even buy and is banned from sale in the US because it breaks several FCC specs requirements for phones sold in the US; shows just how much of a joke you are
I will never believe you ever own a Samsung, because after all; of they were garbage ad you saod; why would you keep buying them?
Here is an example. I think iPhone are garbage. I based that on the fact that I've own 4 different models. It is because I'm the last they were less capable vs what they cost. In recent years Apple jas stepped up and made the device a lot better, but I dont see any reason to change because the product I already buy does what I want the way I want and I see no need to switch for no valid reason.
I can choose to buy what I want vs buying something that continues to play catchup. The gap has been wide for nearly 2 decades. These Chinese oems are in the same boat. That Hwawei doesn't even run Android, it doesn't work on any US carrier but 2 and even then it would be using lower slower standards. There is more to a product vs the camera.
Are you gonna buy that device? Nope. Even if you didn't, how would you use it? Without Google Services it nothing more than a paper-weight.
See i am just showing you your purposeful ignorance and fan boy logic won't work with me. Unlike you, I was born at night, not last night.
Now here is will try to find some common ground. I recently too a trip to Hong Kong. I had a chance to spend some time with 3 phones from Hwawei. Those device was very nice, fast, took great pics and had a comparable price around $1000USD. Of the phone was available in the US i would buy it because it would be 100% compatible with US requirements.
But when it comes to making a choice with options available in the US, nothing sold in the US beats any Galaxy S branded device consistently in any metric. The few little one ups of Google or Apple make them a solid contender, not an overall replacement. The Pixel or iPhone is still a downgrade vs the Galaxy S.
As long as you are satisfied with the product, that is the most important factor. I would not be comfortable purchasing a device with mid-range camera and with a problematic CPU (as reported by users here) for $1300.00. I would prefer to pay the same amount for a device that offers significantly better performance and cameras.

Samsung has never officially acknowledged the defects observed in its Galaxy S20, S21, S22, S23, S24, and S25 models. However, these issues have been widely reported and discussed in online forums and through Google searches. Notably, Samsung store managers have confirmed the existence of these defects, yet Samsung has not taken any official action to address them. This situation is indeed ironic. There is an article available on PA that delves into this matter.
In googling CPU issues the only real complaint is CPU throttling (this is not considered a CPU problem) but only on sustsined heavy graphics game operation. A few complaints about occasional input lag but nothing serious. I dont doubt what you are saying but can't really find confirmation for your comment. To be honest if it didn't require an over $4000 investment just to try Apple i would do so just to see what i think. It would just require a complete Ecosystem overhaul. Given the ridiculous cost just to try Apple i will have to default to "if it aint broke, dont fix it". I also hear Apple Car Play is not as good of a user experience as Android Auto from a few of the automotive audio installers.
Yeah you say you hear have you tried it ? I have both and can tell you compared to car play android auto is pure junk. I have the fold 7 just in case you ask.
No i haven't as i dont have an Iphone. I have Sony Mobile ES head unit and it supports both. Android auto both wired and wireless but Car Play wireless only (which isn't a big deal as both downscale streaming audio to only CD quality). I do know Google maps is vastly superior to Apple's imp.imentation because I have ridden with someone using Apple Maps for navigation and I wasn't impressed.

Obviously you have no clue of technical devices or whatsoever.

Thanks. By the way my net cost on my S25 Ultra was a little less than $500. Samsung gives outstanding trade in values.

Also, the Snadragon Elite in my S25U has never missed a beat. I dont think the as25 U has any confirmed CPU issues, confirmed being the key word here.
