Surprise? Sony beats Samsung in our latest popularity contest (Poll Results)

Surprise? Sony beats Samsung in our latest popularity contest (Poll Results)
So, Sony's latest flagship is definitely something to behold. No more blocky shapes and out-of-date looks. The Xperia XZ3 has a curved display, nice ergonomic arches all around, and thin bezels (yes, even the top and bottom ones are not gargantuan).

With its size and pricing, it can be called a direct competitor to the Samsung Galaxy S9+. So, we thought we'd ask you which of the two phones you would buy.

With 1730 votes on the poll, we have a victory for Sony — 60 to 40. It's worth noting that, just over a month ago, we held a poll for Xperia XZ2 Premium vs Samsung Galaxy Note 9, which Sony also won (though, by a hair).

Of course, there's a difference between opinion polls like "would you buy" and actual sales. But still, could mean Sony is on a bounceback. Could it?
