You post are becoming more and more absurd as the time goes on.
I guess social distancing is already taking its toll.
Please do not ever stop, your troll posts ... I mean scientific facts ... what a wierd typo, right? ... are endless source of enjoyment in these times.
TimApple, 20 Apr 2020Nah, they're perfectly fine provided you get a decent pair that supports aptX. People who have... moreI don't think you have any idea what you are talking about. Someone with Apple in its nice name talking about AptX and forgetting to mention LL mode... Jack size whose never a problem, the implementation quality is open for discussion. USB "pasive" pass trogh? Either you use passive dongle which relies on integrated DAC & Amp & OS chain (Android usb audio 1.1) or active one with its own DAC and amp with either default or costume driver while pass trogh is possible only for DSD in direct mode & with some costume drivers choosing direct raw output for PCM, usually this is referred as bit perfect.
It's your chance what you like or prefer but people need to have a chance. I am not ready to let go either wire's or headaphone jack one way or another.
Fearghast, 20 Apr 2020"The whole world besides Europe will be getting Exynos version, so that's the variant that mos... moreOh, so even the Europe would get the Exynos?
It only makes the best version of Samsung much more limited, then!
The fact that you've said it made my claims even more applicable in reality, with less people having access to Snapdragon versions.
Anyway at least you're admitting that their own chipset is worse.
Good for providing source of facts, so thumbs up for that. Should I say thank you for correcting me? Maybe, I think it'll help lower your ego per say.
In what way did I exactly point out that Sony phones are better because Samsung phones are worse?
Well obviously that would be the case when we compare the two. All I was pointing out the whole time is that the Xperia 1 Mk II wouldn't exactly be the best phone of 2020, but it certainly wouldn't be as bad-performing as the Galaxy S20 Ultra, which is absolutely horrible for a modern day flagship phone costing over $1400 from a very reputable brand as big as Samsung.
Delay to official release is caused by the pandemic, and also because they're preparing the phone to be more polished before the first release, unlike Samsung which made the autofocus more reliable only after it gets publicly released.
Though I have to say that I'm also irritated by this common habit of Sony in releasing flagships in the first half of the year.
TimApple, 20 Apr 2020Nah, they're perfectly fine provided you get a decent pair that supports aptX. People who have... moreYou just want to sell dongles lul. Instead of people using their years-old headsets that still work.
And who are you to just dictate who can say this and that wrt to opinions.
Take your BS to gatekeeping lul.
Anonymous, 20 Apr 2020How about:
No bashing - deliberately and repeatedly bashing the same brand
No trolling - del... moreBashing and criticizing are exactly two different things.
I'm doing the latter because for real, there are true evidences that back up my claim. In contrast, all that you're trying to do is bashing because you don't even have any scientific data or experiment to prove such claims, so it's pretty pointless to even argue with people like you. Be glad I'm not doing anything much this quarantine so I'm wasting my time explaining basic things to you. The fact that my comments even bothers you so much makes me a happy entertainer for knowledge for myself.
Trolling is everywhere. Not all trolls are blocked by GSMArena, but I'm certainly not trolling at all. Again, how can it be like that when everything that I'm saying is actually backed up by countless facts based on real life testings and real users' experiences?
Maybe it's you who's trolling. You were saying something that absolutely makes no sense right from the start, but also gettin' mad when I speak real stuff.
Why would I be guilty of those things? Don't call me wrong doings that you're doing yourself. You put light on me for being a troll in order to put attention to me because apparently it's you who's trolling.
I've pretty much said many things similarly on this page, and there were people who responded much nicer and more intellectually and sensibly than you're doing. Bring back those people so I can actually have a meaningful discussion and not waste time to trolls like you.
Ofcourse the Xperia 1 Mk II isn't out yet, but I'm solely depending on the specsheet alone, but given Sony's track record of making smartphones, there's absolutely no doubt this new one would also be a brilliant device that's closest to perfection, as far as quality and versatility goes.
Well again, why am I saying this again? You wouldn't listen and get it anyway, so good luck trying to find the attention that you've been needing badly in your whole life.

Anyway, the slim form factor of 21:9 allows it to be held easily with one hand.
If you're not happy, then move the f- on.
I also hate your nonsense screen cutout, but I never wished nor asked for it to burn in hell, so yeah, just shut up.
Robert, 20 Apr 2020Hi, does this phone has IR blaster, like the other LG phones?Sorry. Now LG and Samsung doesn't give IR Blaster for cost cutting and makes us believe it's an obsolete tech. But Xiaomi and Huawei still believe it's relevant even at 2020.
Garebear, 20 Apr 2020No, bud, the reason a lot of people refuse to give up the headphone jack isn't just quality. B... moreNah, they're perfectly fine provided you get a decent pair that supports aptX. People who have never used true wireless headphones shouldn't be allowed to make comments about them. 3.5mm has no place on a modern phone, it's a waste of precious space that's better used for haptics of battery. 3.5mm on a desktop or notebook computer is perfectly fine where space is apt but not on mobile. Not to mention that it's extremely redundant given that USB-C audio passthrough exists - just get a passive adapter and you still have the same quality on your wired headphones.
3.5mm is gone and good riddance.

Dont get LG phones!!! I muself have one. Phones are great maybe for the 1st 6 months of buying coz after that you fall way back in the software segment. I have got the Vseries and though android 9.0 came out 2 years ago, I still haven't seen the light of it yet. Pathetic customer service who keeps on blaming 3rd parties for the delay in bringing it out, when all other vendors have moved on to android 10.0. They touted some unknown global software development centre which is all a gimmick.
No wonder they continue to post losses in their mobile segment as people who already own a LG phone will never order another one or recommend to another.
SO STAY AWAY GROM LG PHONES
No, bud, the reason a lot of people refuse to give up the headphone jack isn't just quality. Buds are annoying to deal with, the quality does suck, and there's tons of latency so you can't play games very well on the phone with audio seconds behind.
Bluetooth and AAC suck, that's why we stay to the jack.
I'll not be long and try to make it short...As years of using iPhone and then switching to Android... I had great experiences with old LGs and specially OnePlus (but to be honest camera set up was always more or less a miss). Now that Huawei has ban from Google (also HONOR = best value performer), I'm happy to see LG is back. This phone gives you most important features FIRST. Great battery, Solid screen (and best is that IT'S FLATT), great overall audio experience, best processor and it's not overpriced. So as I'm from EU and I use a lot Google services and I don't like other generic Chinese products (XIAOMI, VIVO, OPPO,...and as I said OnePlus lost me when turned back to loyal comunity!!!), I'm left to either LG or Sammy. But Samsung cheats Europeans with it's own EXYNOS instead of Qualcom's BEST!?!?!?! In my opinion I was first shocked when LG left out some of features, but then after a while, they did BEST compromise and deserve to BE BACK. LG just PLEASE improve your UPDATE policy AND I'm absolutely sure you'll surpass competitors (only decent is left of Google = HUAWEI / HONOR).

You are really clueless. You can't even fact check in your fanboy rage ...
Europe gets the Exynos ... Exynos is worse version .... it suffers most of the issues ... do I have to continue?
Only regions like NA get the better Snapdragon version ... where do you think (If you are even capable of such a concept) petition originated?

At least read it, sign it if you agree like I did --- and breathe ... read ... understand.
... but to repeat my point. Samsung S20 series not that good != make Sony phones better.
Every device is unique and has unique bugs and broken features ... Xperia 1 II was even delayed to June ... guess what they are fixing.

Don't tell me you are not guilty of these. And Xperia I II is not even out yet. On paper it looks good but how do you know that it will perform well in real life?
Why did they removed QHD+ resolution on this phone??
I don't underestand, this phone got everything but not the quad hd resolution which is essential for a flagship... Disappointed
Wondering how’s gsmarena doing brightness measurement since s20 ultra only reach 731 nits in auto brightness.
