Use Samsung for a day and enjoy the whole experience. I bet those cameras aren't utilised well in 3rd party apps and good luck delving into developer mode when things go wrong with Android.
Just yuck.
Just yuck.
Although in all fairness an iPhone 12 Pro is hardly to be sniffed at and he didn't mention what version Samsung his girlfriend had. I certainly wouldn't say the iPhone 12 Pro has a **** camera.
I'm certain that the engineers from Samsung company are not currently busy for implementing dynamic island feature for their soon to be new galaxy lineups. If they won't, my hat will be coming off from my head
Just make sure not to touch the screen with your fingernails!
Or peal off that layer that looks like a protective shipping cover.
And Samsung's components are literally living inside Apple's iPhone.
I'd say it's a fair trade-off.
That's awesome...Samsung...since you have all those megapixels...how come you cant come up with a top 15 rated camera by DXO? First Samsung on that list is ranked 17...it couldn't beat the older 13 Pro, and its more expensive than the iPhone...
I'm sure Samsung's version will be called "Fantastic Planet" or something... you know... Galaxy and all that...
🤣
Because Samsung doesn't get some of their components from other companies right?And Samsung's components are literally living inside Apple's iPhone.
I'd say it's a fair trade-off.
Even more embarrassing for Samsung. Apple uses some of their parts and makes much better use of them than Samsung themselves ever will.And Samsung's components are literally living inside Apple's iPhone.
I'd say it's a fair trade-off.
This reminds me of the crazy hitchhiker in There’s Something About Mary, trying to push his idea of a 7-Minute Abs workout video.
Hitchhiker: Think about it. You walk into a video store, you see 8-Minute Abs sittin’ there, there’s 7-Minute Abs right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man?
Ted: I would go for the 7.
Hitchhiker: Bingo, man, bingo. 7-Minute Abs. And we guarantee just as good a workout as the 8-minute folk.
Ted: You guarantee it? That’s — how do you do that?
Hitchhiker: If you’re not happy with the first 7 minutes, we’re gonna send you the extra minute free. You see? That’s it. That’s our motto. That’s where we’re comin’ from. That’s from “A” to “B”.
Ted: That’s right. That’s — that’s good. That’s good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 6-Minute Abs. Then you’re in trouble, huh?

Samsung sells more phones, but not more flagship phones. Samsung only sells more phones because they sell phones for as little as under $100. If all they had was expensive phones like Apple, their market share would be crap. The original comment that Apple sold more iPhones this morning than Samsung will sell Galaxys all year isn’t far off the mark of you are talking about S22 level galaxy phones.
But that's the point... impressive because of more megapixels? Is their hardware achieving *better* photos than an iPhone 14's camera rig? Impressiveness should be based on end results and the user experience, not purely on "mine is bigger than yours!" silliness. Nobody needs to be publishing a 108 megapixel photo to their Facebook feed.
MP has almost nothing to do with camera quality, and samsung knows that. they just know that a lot of people don't, so it works for advertising (at least they think it does).
True... but we don't see Samsung making fun of their Taiwanese o-ring manufacturer via Tweet...
Yes, I have 13 Pro as my main phone but I also recently bought a flip 4 to check out. It is a nice phone, but it is no iPhone. And you do have to be a lot more careful with the flip.
I know it's old... but it's not like Apple's always been mature about its ads.
