Biased Doesn't mean they'll give bad reviews to other manufacturers.
But they will cover up for shortcomings of Apple devices.
Heck even their PC Build videos are a laughing stock for the entire tech community.
Anonymous, 07 May 2020PhoneArena, Verge, CNET, Anandtech are super biased towards Apple. Excuse me?
Anandtech, 100%, but the verge? No.
They gave excellent reviews for samsung phones as well. And oppo phones(find x2 pro got 8.5). And a bunch of other phones.
The verge actually thinks about what a non-tech person would want, and gives reccomendations based off that. GSMA is more based off value/money and features.
This review is a joke, if you removed the Apple branding it would get 2 stars.
I also can't believe this junk camera hardware gets such good reviews.
I'd take the OnePlus 7t over this hopeless phone any day. There is such bias and such a double standard with reviews of Apple phones.
Everything is recycled obsolete junk except the SOC and people act like the segment has been revolutionized because it has an Apple logo.
>but they will be a target for many laughs either way.
Only by you, the actual public seems to like them
Anonymous, 09 May 2020great phone for 2016Haha:) 2013 would be better
great phone for 2016
Dominique, 08 May 2020No wonder why you can't have a TRUE daily experience with Android. FYI, apps stability, speed ... moreGood day to you too but I did use a xiaomi mi 9 for about 2 weeks as a daily driver as my iphone was broken for a while so i did have a decent exerpeince with android and like i said before i did have a solid android phone not too ling ago.
Kriegsherr, 02 May 2020It depends. Exynos runs hot and battery life is pretty bad. I have a s10e with exynos in it. T... moreEven with exynos, it will hold better than iphone SE with 1800 mAh battery.
Rk100, 06 May 2020Like I said it doesn't matter what phone the android is, the apps always turn out worse then t... moreNo wonder why you can't have a TRUE daily experience with Android. FYI, apps stability, speed and COMPATIBILITY varies on different brands and models of Android. I'll not dig in too deeper as your insights looks so inclined to iPhone. Good day and enjoy your iPhone experience.
Rk100, 06 May 2020And i also can assume that you don't have an iPhone but you also don't have a new flagship. Co... moreYes I don't own any iPhone but I bought iPhone 11 PRO Max for my daughter last November. When did I ever tell you that I own a Samsung S20? I had a very bad experience with S8 when I shifted from Mate 10. FYI, my current daily driver is still a Mate 20 as Mate 30 lacks Google support.
Why should I lie? Read and understand my comment before assuming anything.
Simon, 04 May 2020The four stars don't do this justice. This is the most revolutionary mid-ranger since the Nexu... moreYes. It's so revolutionary that Apple has managed to convince u that a garbage battery in a phone is still a great bargain.
Anonymous, 05 May 2020To give this phone fair review from Android boy.
What's good:
. CPU
. Apple Support
. lo... more"Battery life. Even with that small capacity, I expected more than what we get. I mean, it scores lower than iPhone 8. Can GSMA redo battery test ? Might software update improve that? I don't know."
Sorry to disappoint you but nothing's fixing the performance of the meager battery. Once the applauded A13 kicks in (as in when playing a game) the battery will drain so fast that even plugging the phone in won't help.
lek, 06 May 2020oh wow, I was wrong about the battery endurance.. maaaaan, that could be a deal breaker to me u_uCould??
OmeninoDoMorro, 07 May 2020This phone is very bezells , and its too smal for this days.
Not even got a great constructio... more” iphone for the third world, where they dont have data enought to see videos”
Watching videos with this SE or for example 11 pro 5.8” have hardly no difference. 11 Pro screen is only lot longer and hardly noticable wider, new smartphones are too long for video in it’s real size. This phone has actually bigger screen than what you could think from the specs, it’s because the screen aspect ratio have changed then to those longer phones.
I mean 8 plus 5.5” iPhone X 5.8”. Based on the specs plus should have bigger screen than X, right? It doesn’t. So there’s that.
Reviewers from gsmarena can you please explain.
59 hours endurance from a 2020 iPhone is pretty good
59 hours endurance from a 2019 Motorola Moto g7 plus is .....pretty underwhelming?? And very dissapointing.
Please explain because i dont get it.
Thx
This phone is very bezells , and its too smal for this days.
Not even got a great construction, just cant see how this is 500 euros and they say its good for the money.

Anonymous, 06 May 2020You do realize that the Galaxy S2 was best selling Android phone with 4.3 inch screen size way... moreWow. The anger over a phone choice. Funny, I’ve been a Android user since the Samsung Note 1 and have had a lot more Android models since then. At $449, I thought the risk of trying an IPhone was negligible and bought one. A couple of days in, I realized I really liked it. So much, I sold my Note 10 on Swappa. I buy phones to assist me in accomplishing things I like to do. I don’t care about symbols or branding. Anger over a phone choice seems remarkably silly.
peter lac, 07 May 2020you are right, it is not phone from 2020. I still think that many people will use/buy it. Nope. It is a phone from 2020 that outclasses every Android phone in performance, sells for the price of a mid-range Nokia, and will be supported for half a decade at a minimum.
Incredible value. I will still be using this in 2025 to look at my investments which generate more monthly income than you pajeets make in a year.
jtrogr, 07 May 2020Reviewers that get review units write nice things as they want to get them in the future as th... moreExactly.
They are also barred from talking about shortcomings of the device as part of the contract.
Very few reviewers out there these days who give completely unbiased reviews whether it's Android or Apple.
