    That was the most boring tech event I have ever watched. They e brought the Brazilian YouTubers on to demo video editing and showed nothing. Then they brought on the instagram guy to take a selfie in a very awkward way. It looked like none of the event had been rehearsed. 
    @crosslad   Or over-rehearsed.... 
    the whole thing was completely choreographed. It was appalling. And why were all the people video calling from god knows where and the camera shots of demos were clearly staged as well. All the cutting away and going to a video then cutting back. It was a shambles and I kind of felt sorry for people. They reminded me of first class airline crew on a certain Arab airline that shall remain nameless. They all try plastering a smile on their faces but you can see they’re scared shitless as if one foot out of place and they’ll be hit by a firing squad.

    Funny that Samsung is charging iPhone prices (if not WAY more now) for what is essentially a me-too lipstick-on-a-pig Android phone, and the Samdroids just lick that stuff up.  Thanks, but no thanks.  At least I know that my hard-earned money is better spent on a quality Apple phone than any of the junk that Samsung puts out.

    Looking forward to seeing these phones be the flops that they are.
    Just took Asiana airlines from Korea and I would say that 90% of Koreans I have seen have the latest iphones in thier hands, even the sales ladies in the airport.....

    Well, I gonna ditch my Iphone X for an Android, my reason its Google does a better Job with the Google Assistent, were Siri still sucks big time.
    Bluetooth Audio sounds alot better on Android even on Cheap Androids, because they support better HD audio codecs...

    I see no reason for the 5g model to be separate from the 4g models, is there a reason for that other than charging higher prices for 5g access?
    5G is entirely new technology, but they are basically charging a premium price for a premium experience (in terms of sheer speed of network access). Too bad that 5G networks aren't common yet, so anyone that buys this will still be using LTE for some time to come.

    I need to give Samsung credit. Even their stage presentation was super-creative with the "fold" design of the screen above and below. I think that was super cool and creative!

    The Fold seems to be an industry-defining device. I won't lie. Apple has their work cut out for them.

    And here I am perfectly happy with my new SE. I like it when Apple keeps it simple and beautiful.
    The SE is an example of Apple giving people what they want rather than forcing them to take what they make.
    They need to do a lot more of that....

    Apple is entering a mobile computing market where their restricted, simple, minimalist product lines may be too restrictive and existing and future customers will have to look elsewhere to get the hardware they want and need.

    Only if you live in the boondocks....
    It's being rolled out to major urban areas right now.

    Trump admits that he's blocking Huawei as part of his trade war to let poorly performing U.S. companies catch-up -- and announces he will skip 5G and go straight to 6G.

    Those tweets are astonishing. His advisors must be tearing their hair out.

    Most people knew from the outset the likely reasons for what the US was doing to try and de-rail Huawei at any cost but for him come out to post something that pretty much confirms it, is a reckless thing to do.

    If it were limited to the US perhaps people would shrug it off but he has people touring Europe right now threatening governments to follow US policy on Huawei.

    I'm sure EU member states are also flabbergasted by these comments.

    He's basically saying he's all for competition but only if the US is guaranteed to come out on top.

    The upshot is that he doesn't want Huawei's better, cheaper, technology on the playing field, much less when Huawei is delivering solutions worldwide already (40,000 5G base stations already shipped).

    I’ve always wondered why Samsung doesn’t incorporate its own SOC design on its smartphones in markets like the US etc...From what I’ve read, their latest design is about on par processing power wise with Apple’s A12 series. Instead they use the apparently far less powerful Qualcomm SOC instead.

    You were being mislead then!!! Qualcomm SoCs are superior than Samsung's SoCs in the last couple of generations OVERALL. Please note the keyword - OVERALL. Samsung has focused on couple of benchmarks and push the narrative in mainstream media that their SoCs are superior than Qualcomm's. But in real world performance, that is not the case. Anandtech has done deep-dive on Samsung's and Qualcomm's flagship SoCs. You can go through them to get an idea of what I am talking about.

    We have to be dishonest Samsung hit this out the ball park while apple gives us the same stuff at higher prices , you can just do so much more with samsung phones 
    There. I fixed it for you. 
    Sound like you’re a hater while I’m a iPhone user you have to admit they are killing it and miles ahead, phone to phone charger and we can’t even get a free dongle anymore 😂😂😂
    Apparently you haven't bothered to read Samsung's financials.  Sure, they're selling a lot of phones, but making almost next to nothing on them.  Keep trying though!
    I could care less what either apples or Samsung’s profits are , it don’t benefit me lol , when it comes to phones they just have so many features

    What’s the point of charging someone’s phone and draining your battery?
    Oh but if apple did it you would be singing a different tune , what’s the point of having a quick charging phone but no useful accessories in the box 😂😂
