From experience,an original Samsung phone with 1500 MAh is equivalent to a 3500MAh in other phones

Abeg dont say what you aint sure of, na wetin dem tell me when i was using s4, s5, and now s6 still the battery is just nonsense, you guys should stop underrating chinese oem, i bet you cant even compare this phone to a gionee m6 based on battery life and what we basically need in fons as a nigerian.

My friends s7 edge makes my iphone 6 feel like a joke in every way...the phone had the best camera in 2016...idiots mega pixel only depicts how large the photos will be...the larger the pixel..the bigger the photo...so camon c8 or c9 or cx will have 30mp and still feel like nokia c1 camera to samsung.

It really seems Samsung doesn't consider Nigerian market at all when manufacturing their phones. Or do they expect us to spend hundreds of thousands on phones with mediocre battery capacities?
Why talking like an ignorant dude? Dude, Flagship phones are not known for battery capacity anywhere in the world and people have been buying them. If battery is your concern, then that is reason why they have the quick charge feature.
I don't even think anyone struggling what power supply for his home should be buying an S8.

As for the ram...my brothers abeg carry any tecno,infinix,gionee even if Dem get 6gb ram...use them play NBA 2k16 or gangster vegas...I'll use a galaxy s4 and the speed and gameplay will be far better.. can't compare a phone using snapdragon or exynos to them tecno using MTK....mtk sucks that's why they need large battery cause they depend on cores...the galaxy s7 with 3500mah lasts longer than gionee m5 with 5000mah...The galaxy s7 edge was the best phone of 2016.hands down...it has a nice successor.

That Reddit was from MKBHD.

How's the G5 in your top 4 without the HTC 10?

Your opinion is shit.

This isn't my opinion. IPhone 7 isn't among top 4 camera phones last year.

just ask yourself this question

why didnt google support DeX, despte microsoft and adobe support?......is it that sammy didnt contact them?....if they could collabo with microsoft,y didnt they collabo with google?

The truth is DeX and its apps are samsung ecosystem and not google's..this will pose threat to chrome os and the merge btw chrome os and android and thus render the latter useless

It's all about business and interest. MS will do same if they were in Google's shoes

Nope. Windows phone is dead for now. MS will surely make returns in one way or another. Btw, is this really MS tech? Motorola did something like this too tho didn't turn out successful

MKBHD

Check under cameras.

In most competent reviews about cameras the Pixel always comes out tops.

I've the S7 Edge (and LG G5), I'm not saying it's a bad phone but the Pixel has better cameras. While the main camera i quite good, the selfie camera on the S7 is pure shite.

Sorry, in what universe can MKBHD be considered in the same class as Anandtech?

Anandtech is pretty clear: Pixel takes slightly better daylight pics, the S7 beats it in low light. Depends on your focus as each one has trade offs.

MKBHD is one of the most trusted and followed software/hardware reviewer....anandtech is the most trusted hardware only reviewer,tho...they are more technical than MKBHD

The 12MP on the S7and Pixel were the best cameras last year dusting the competitons to the ground.

I use the google pixel and I can confirm that it has the better camera in well-lightened environment. The S7's camera is overrated.

So why then say the S7 has the best camera if the pixel takes better pix at daylight, which is when most people pull out their snapper?

And don't be glib; i was showing different reviews, not comparing MKBHD with anandtech. At least unlike you who relies on the opinions of only one reviewer I scoured.

Still waiting for you to dispute the rankings of DxOmark.

I am sorry but MKBHD never said the S7 had the best camera, in his 2016 flagship ratings I recall he specifically called a tie between the iPhone 7 and Pixel (one of the reasons I opted for the pixel over the iPhone). That is not to say it's performance in low-light doesn't trail the Galaxy though. I have friends who own the S7, and compared to them my pictures lose sharpness without lightening.

See not all chinese phns fall into that category.I have tremendous adoration for Chinese phns.In fact i use a Chinese oppo brand called n1 running on nougat 7.1.This is over three years and still the battery tank of 3,452MAh is still amazing.....i bought samsung galaxy tab 7.7inch in 2012...My guy the battery juice is still the way it was...Very unprecedented.

MKBHD is bias. He started losing his credibility over a year ago. There's no way in hell, heaven and earth iphone 7 camera will tie with Pixel. Now you see why he is a biased guy.
