I'd love to see some actual values/evidence out of you one of these days, Bot-chan.

The only evidence these people have are those predictions made by analysts....and, as we know, analyst predictions are unreliable and do not equate to being official information. I think them believing this analyst bullsh*t stems from the fact that they want to see the iPhone X/Apple fail, so of course they'll side with analysts who say anything negative.

You just like Apple fans believe all the unreliable analyst any time it has to do with Samsung. Pot calling the kettle black.

I might make a bigger presence in the comment sections for Samsung analyst articles, but that's because I love Samsung and am interested in any rumors etc. I have never once actually believed anything an analyst has said, whether it be negative or positive. If you actually paid attention, you'd see that I mock these analysts at any given moment. So...........I really don't understand what the point of your comment was.

Yea, I would love to vote for the better average battery life option but I don't see the choice for throttling phones anywhere.

More battery life is always better. If they get to two full days, a week will be better.

V30's amp LG needs to start maketing their amp, its what really seperates their phones in terms of audio quality Especially for mid-high end headphones where other phones (and laptops/PCs) require USB amps

Definitely not the ugly iPhone10 iNotch, which in case the iPhone8s looks way better than the tall narrow 18.9 screen. Definitely not the kinda ugly S8, with its ultra long Tv remote look_a_like design, and along with that nasty 18.9 screen. 16.9 looks way better...

2:1 is more practical. It's closer to the aspect ratio of movies, so you're not watching a thin bar of video on your phone, like you are with 16:9.

This is what I've been saying for a while as well. Movies are generally filmed in 19:9 or 21:9 (or there about) aspect ratios these days, so having phone screen closer to that makes sense as all media will move in that direction soon, and YouTube creators already are.

The S8 actually has an 18.5:2 ratio which is why it looks even taller. The 18:9 ratio isn't quite as bad. I have the V30, and it isn't nearly as bad as I feared it would be. I've used the S8, and wasn't a fan.

I like what Apple and Samsung are doing. Phone of the year: Note 8 Design of the year: iPhone X Apples design departure from its previous design, was bigger than the rest, resulting in a beautiful design. The notch is intrusive, but its grown on me looks wise, and looks cool.

Bring a plus variant of the iPhone X design next year. Also Apple remove the throttling from your software. Samsung center your finger scanner on Note 9. Sure they will. Also offer the cool colors that you hold back on release day.
