AnonD-441601, 11 Jan 2018Oh people really? Like REALLY? I wonder how mucj apple paid to Kantar for making this nonsens... morethats pretty far fetched for you to assume Apple pays Kantar, considering they have been doing this sort of statistic research since Nokia days. Also are you implying that Chinese people are not capable/too poor to buy iPhone X?

I think you should consider your words before commenting bro.

Only problem is the OS, but apparently Apple maniacs... moreMore like the opposite: Android phones have truly amazing hardware compared to Apple (especially for the price) , but Android OS is more fragmented than ever. App developers are struggling to keep up/maintain their apps on so many previous android phones which never got updates. Android OS has more features and freedom, but at the cost of having little to no updates from OEMs. Devs are still more inclined to give better support of their apps for iOS, simply because most apple phones have less fragmentation.

      Hmm... Bet you've never heard or seen what Sharp and Fujitsu have been coming out for their smartphone range since 2006...

      Also, Sharp stated this edgeless/bezelless trend back in 2014, XiaoMi kick in back in 2016, then everyone else slips and fall in 2017 and beyond...

                  But as much i know chinese peple with their average salary i can honestly say its not possible for Iphone X to be best selling phone in china.
                  Anyway who is interested in phone with stacked and used batteries, buggy IOS, fugly notch and waiting ages to charge his phone with a charger included in box with your phone.
                  All companies just copy each other. Only Motorola and their Motomods are trully inovation.
                  Rest is just add-on of something made before.
                  In number of units sold i barely believe a Apple X is top selling device.

                          Only people in gere(gsm arena) are cary about samsung phone - no body else.
                          The true fact is samsung phone not even close to pixel - forget about iphone. iphone is 1000 miles ahead of android.
                          let me give you a hint : 1000 of apps are there in android trying to copy ios style (beacuse nobody like fugly icons in android)
                          even google apps are better in ios (do you know google makes android?)
                          why I am so annoyed ? because I wasted my money for s8 and sold it for 1/3rd price.
                          I did not found any people who said "Oh android !! wow .. Galaxy s8.. best phone.. please let me buy".
                          You guys who praise samsung phone please convince people to buy "premium" laggy, ugly phone with premature os.

                              WickedWilly36, 11 Jan 2018Look at the tech on the X and the tech was already here. If you look what Apple added, not onl... moreMost of the important tech was not. Only fast/wireless charging was which is a secondary feature,

                              Edge to edge screen was not and to this days only Apple and Essential did it (the rest still has visible bezels).

                              The Screen's amoled existed , but never done as well: http://www.displaymate.com/iPhoneX_ShootOut_1a.htm

                              Face unlock through depth recognition is a first too.

                              Desktop performance on a phone is a first too (the SoC is twice as good as the rest's, like literally): https://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_x-review-1681p5.php

                              Research better next time. With iPhone X Apple was turned from a follower into a Tech leader.

                                dgg, 11 Jan 2018Still prefer my S8. S8>>>any Iphone on the market(my opinion). Cant image to have pho... moreS8 was the worst flagship Samsung ever released a proper step back, not only it does not touch iPhone X, it's not even close to S7. I'm not going to bother to compare with iPhone X because the results would be laughable, instead I would do with S7E, the last proper Samsung flagship (before rampant cost-cutting caught customers unawares)

                                S8 as compared to S7:

                                Same SoC : Exynos 8895 ~ Exynos 8890
                                Same RAM: 4GB
                                Yet worse app retention (last in *all* phonebuff tests)
                                Same screen just taller: Same PPI, similar colours
                                *Worse* fingerprint placement: besides the camera (!)
                                Similar Camera
                                *Worse* battery life (in both mah and actual tests).

                                Things it was actually better: Better body to screen ratio ... the END

                                If you think that S8 should be in the same sentence as the rest of Samsung flagships, much less that of iPhone X, I think you should watch the mobile space more closely.

                                If it was not Samsung behind it, whichever company released it would had receive lawsuit after lawsuit for false advertismenet, you're supposed to make the phone *better* when you up a number, not worse...

                                S8 is the result of Samsung's rampant cost cutting. Yes it sells abysmally, but it was close to nothing for them to design and especially produce so they fattened their margins. Be more careful next time, else you reward bad behavior from companies, you don't want us to be filled with minor upgrades that only "upgraded" their prices, right? Then stop buying phones like S8...

If you look what Apple added, not only did it exist already, but for most of it Apples version was not up to the standard of the best of its peers. Wireless charging, fast charging, modern standards of screen to body ratios, and IP protection are perfect examples.

                                        While I don't think their phones are close to being worth their price, I have to accept that their success is on another scale, remember it's 1 Company vs All of Android. o_0
