As a Samsung user, if it's not an event about a foldable, I don't care anymore. Waiting for a the fall event. Slabs phones are just so lame to me now. :p

Good luck and I hope that the hard edges of Android will not hurt your brain!
I’m fine with Android. I have had seven Android phones in the past and enjoyed them and actually prefer them, I just switched to iPhones for awhile for something different.
 
please Apple gods; give me an integrated stylus in the largest iPhone so I can kiss this galaxy goodbye.

otherwise I will be forced to keep buying samsung note-like phones.....
 
Apple just turn to 48...not 200. Apple will stay and improve by software that 48mp for at least 4-5 years, in the meantime samsung will be probably at 300mp...so what trend is Apple chasing ?! Apple is still at 6gb of ram. And this year Apple for surely will be among first with 3nm SoC
When Samsung started using 50 (and then 100?) MP and iPhones had 12MP the fans were joking about Samsung too. Supposedly it was only pixel size that mattered. Then Apple followed Samsung. But it's not just about the camera. The same story repeated itself with screen size and resolution, battery size, RAM size.

Yes, but it comes with no notch, a 3 billion megapixel camera, Android and they make foldable versions with a custom crease.

Tell me you aren’t sold now…
I always buy iPhones, and I always will, but the iPhone X was the epitome of iPhone design, and they’ve gotten worse since, by moronically going to unergonomic square edges, and moving to matte glass (far more slippery).

When you look at a Samsung device though, the face looks far more futuristic than Apple, with much smaller bezels and retaining the curved edges to an extent. Moreover, the hole punch is astronomically superior to the Dynamic Island which is just a distracting gimmick.

Luckily the Dynamic Island will go away eventually, as apple finally transitions away from the cutouts. The Face ID tech can move under the display and the camera can rest under a display cutout that magnetically moves out of the way and then falls back into place when the camera is activated/deactivated.

I really liked the ZF3, but the Note series is more suitable for my use case currently. I'm really hoping Sammy does it significantly better with ZF5 ( s-pen with built in silo, outer screen s-pen enabled, dust resistance, larger battery or better optimized at least, further diminished crease ) and I'll def. get it again!
 
If they give some excellent iPhone trade-in values which they usually don't I would love to be on Android I hate typing on an iPhone and that dumb cursor.
 
I'm so excited to see what features they'll copy this time; the Bixby Island feature on the selfie camera's cutout is sure to be a hit! :p

You have a point here.
But 200 mp is really marketing talk on this size sensor.
 
That just isn't true.
You may be finding the algorithms are ovelry aggressive.
Switch to raw.
You’re right

The sensors themselves aren’t worse , but the over sharpening is badshit crazy

Raw takes a heck lotta space, but I’m very curious about this apple pro raw

You can’t have hdr with raw can you?

Don’t see an option the camera itself or Settings > Camera to turn HDR off or on.
I only find it in Photos for viewing.
Not totally positive but I think SmartHDR is always on unless you are shooting true RAW.

Reason I use Halide - better control.
 
I still use an abysmal Galaxy A20e as a secondary Android phone, lets see if they launch the A24 or A34 soon to upgrade that slow thing to something more useable xD

Pro raw in the main app can take up to 100MB but if you edit it in lightroom it can take up anywhere from 5-20mb so not alot.

pro raw you can really make things as you want. The results can be stunning if you are into photography it's worth using. That way you are using the sensors and not apple's processing.
