Pls tell them. Most people on this forum just dey hype Putin I dey laff. Russia is yet to develope the so called defense system they are boasting about. I even fear North Korea weaponry pass Russians because those people no dey make noise.

ALLFATHER14:
The S300 was just destroyed but did you ask what happened to the craft that destroyed the S300!!?? That's right another S300 sent it to oblivion. You say "A recent TEST LAUNCH" that's funny because the S400 passed their testing phase last year and are now deployed in Syria, and do you know why they have not downed any aircraft yet!!?? it's because no pilot on the face of this earth dares fly into their sphere of influence it's an A2/AD no fly zone.
If you're versed in the military space you will know that high tech defence equipment are bound to fail now and then, recently an F-22 raptor burst into flames for Absolutely no reason.
US sells their equipment but don't want to allow Russia sell theirs it's hypocrisy at its finest.

CSTRR:
And the funny is that this missile along with the best of Russian tech are not for sale.

Each nation on earth is ultimately alone.

I am not missing the point I said earlier that based on the usage of the the lg g8 and the last iphone I used I prefer the g8

That's my own opinion period

olujosh301:
Price wise the xr is more expensive than the g8
xr is more updated than the x processor wise

Lg can't use underdisplay fingerprint sensor because there's already a speaker under the screen that vibrates the whole screen which would disrupt the under optical sensor of the fingerprint
And also there are other variants of lg g8 that don't have a fingerprint sensor

The g series are compared to the s series
the v series are compared to the Note series


The same procedure of face unlock in xr is similar to x I can't say the same for 11 because I haven't used it for long

olujosh301:
I have used both iphone xr and now using lg g8
The lg is faster and can unlock from different angles
Also in complete darkness the iphone brightens up the screen to the max to unlock and sometimes it's hit and miss but the lg doesn't brighten up the screen in complete darkness and it unlocks very fast

NOTE!!!!
My opinion is from real life usage not just speculations or from what I see online

This is because they failed to appeal the case within 14 days after INEC issued a warning about the qualification of their candidate.

I see where you coming from but at the same time you missed the whole point.

Android being open source means that some of your information are logged and saved on cloud by apps you use, not necessarily from some component responsible for security and not all devs abide by this rule. Oh and most financial apps use 2D images saved for authorization and hackers are getting creative when it comes to Android.

iOS being closed source got to do with the security they promise their consumers. I don't know how it fully works but the gist is apps - especially financial ones - sends a request to the neural chip which allows Face ID to be used to authorise a transaction, it generates random keys for each transaction and bars the app from using it again and Apple are strict on this. If not every dev would've had your information long ago.


Fingerprint can be the same if OEMs don't put in measures to tackle it (Samsung Knox is an example) unless sensor used is a fingerprint magnet so there's that.

KrazyDave16:
You should know by now Apple are notorious for their naming schemes for existing tech.
While it's true they got the same application, later models of the ToF sensor allows for use of lasers for accurate depth mapping.

But that aside, iOS isn't open source like Android which makes Face ID a risk to use for financial transactions, making Face ID secure which I acknowledge but you see "the best overall", there isn't right now.

A competent court in South Korea had to ban these two companies(Iphone and Samsung) from selling smart phones in South Korea in 2012 after finding out they both copied each other and where both guilty of the same accusation they made about each other. I don't usually engage in these sort of comparison but i had to after seeing how strange the the main question was. Its a fair fight. No winner here. The OP made it seem like apple was being too ahead while other phones fell behind. Trust me the those days are gone. Its a highly competitive market with samsung and iphone playing gods while others fall behind the demi god category. CNET plus other top gadget reviewing websites with high reputations for phone reviews all graded the current samsung flagship above the Iphone 11 while i also stumbled upon other reputable sites grading the Iphone 11 as number one. Its perfectly balanced trust me. If i am being a fanboy i would actually side with Samsung because i saw a bigger number of sites putting current S20 above the iphone. In the end it still boils down to usage. It takes a power user to show these superiority in these phones trust me. If you are power user you would understand what i'm saying. I remember using one of the earliest infinix phones as it came out with a paid spotify subscription in it,i had a paid netflix too in it,Mobdro for streaming any US,UK or other premium cable chanels for free and power amp to handle my .FLAC files for a lossless audio. I have never being the picture snapping type so there was no need for a phone with a powerful camera.

While my friend not so tech savvy friend struggled to pay for simple things like itunes with his current gen iphone i was busy checking the US tv guide so i can watch Breaking Bad or a live match in England using some of these apps mentioned. It all depends on your livestyle. Any smartphone should help balance your day to day activity and not for show off. Anyone buying a smartphone should pay for what he can use and not for features they know nothing of which is what most Nigerians do. Usage is everything. Na boys we be. There is no need for all these fights. plenty fights dey. DC vs Marvel, Chelsea vs Man United or even Coca cola vs Pepsi and in the end nobody go gree for each other. They all have where they excel and others don't.

LG G7 and G8 uses the ToF sensor for 3D mapping and they got the same application as Face ID and the ToF sensor is better (it has a longer range) and somewhat faster than what Apple used for the iPhone X up till the 11 Pro Max.

Oh and FYI Face ID uses infrared tech for mapping ones face for unlocking compared to ToF that uses both infrared and laser for higher accuracy.

Modified - the G7 and G8 are notched and there's nothing like the best overall Face unlock right now, it's not 2017 anymore.
Also reason Face ID is fast is cos it saves a 2D image of your face while setting up which it uses for faster unlock. Some cool innovation huh...

KrazyDave16:
Secure, yes
Best, I don't think so

KrazyDave16:
Some Android devices use 2D scanners true but some recently employed the use of ToF sensors for face unlock which is better than Apple Face ID but some here would disagree.

Apple using the LIDAR tech is to improve Face ID and make AR more of a reality,

The airpods has its unique design but that's another story. There are claims flying around that they also infringed on another company patents though that is yet to be proven true.



Not a coincidence if they paid to use ARM architecture (Cortex X1) as their in-house custom cores were a disaster. Qualcomm using it to maintain their monopoly is nothing new. Also licensing is different from patenting.




Samsung went with the niche and improved on it as they made more devices.
Apple on the other hand made it and left it at that, recycling the same thing and charging a premium on it with each release.




They're marketing strategies but they got their own purposes despite the disadvantages with them.

@bolded LIDAR was termed useless but they went on with it and people suddenly love it, forgetting Pixel 4 had it.
Refresh rate was termed useless by all iSheeps but now they're asking Apple to implement it.
OLED was bashed by Jobs himself but na dem dey use am now and Samsung is their supplier (same company that did them dirty)


The iPhone is stands out in its own way but Android has its perks that makes it stand out as well but that doesn't mean the iPhone is the best device so far as some put it.

Also despite being the richest tech company in the world, they couldn't reduce the size of the notch but only to increase it but our country people will not see it cos na iPhone and e no matter.

You posted something from 2015. Samsung will still make money from the iphone 12 to iphone 1000.

Pls no hate here, I don’t really comment on thread like this, but I must say this with all honestly, all my life I’ve always use android from the scratch, until around March this year, when I had to do some stuff which android can’t handle, so I had to buy an iPhone with the hope of reselling after been through with it. Pls right now no other OS stronger and durable compare to IPhone.
Before you attack me and meet your Waterloo, I currently own both Samsung S8 and IPhone XR, on my life I don’t have joy each time I’m operating my Samsung, starting from the key pads to multi tasking. Dam iPhone beat androids hands down. The only different or regret is data consumption, iPhone consume more data than androids.

Bye

Apple partnered with Samsung to make their chipsets before they (Samsung) decided to do what Apple was doing by making their own chips (Exynos) and making phones to rival the iPhones.

There was no direct copy of the chipsets, they both
copied business ideas and some designs along the way.

Apple copying the stylus without improving on it (only price of it improved increased), using LIDAR that people bashed when the Pixel 4 launched with it is now an "innovation", 120hz they said was not necessary they plan on using but they waiting on Samsung to supply them the new screens for it (same screen used on the note 20)

Samsung copying Apple designs to the point Apple tried to patent the whole thing, even down to the design, copying this "no charger in box" madness Apple is doing with the iPhone 12.

sagieramos:
Copy chip as in, you mean Qualcomm copied A-Bionic?

D4donnn:
Then the preminum galaxy are the Bugatti's

I have tons of friends who uses 11 pro and pro max , but one of my friend uses the latest note 20 ultra that gold colored one , I swear gan everybody they dread that phone . It's not about iPhone this iPhone that try buy the premium ones for a change and see how sleek they feel , abeg make I manage my note 10 plus

blingxx:
The same iPhone that is now dragging levels with huawei, xiaomi and Samsung... When last you read updates on Twitter or watch YouTube?

Some states won't need to do anything at all to generate income, perhaps you're from one of those states. Don't pretend. Their wastefulness will only escalate. While some states that are not economically viable will struggle to do the least.



I don't see how resources control encourages people with ideas and strategies run for posts and not people with financial backing, the correlation is there at all
