Both the Huawei P9 Plus and the Honor 8 had portrait mode before the iPhone. The P9 was released in Spring 2016 and used two Leica cameras to achieve the effect. I have an iPad and bought my daughter an iPhone so no, I'm definitely not a paid Huawei plant/spy/shill.  

And still use the iPhone design...

When it suits them Apple touts IDC numbers.

Apple HAS the damn numbers. They don't brag about 3rd party guesstimates. The first sentence of your post is complete bulls*** so I stopped reading after that and everyone else should too.

Good luck convincing people the knockoffs like the MateBook Pro, MiPhone 8, GalaxyTab are better.

You state: "Huawei is  definitely taking sales away from Apple", yet you don't have any data, or even anecdotal evidence, that iPhone users are switching to Huawei, even in China

Where did curved screens, holepunch  camera cutouts, in screen fingerprint scanners, tri and quad cameras, periscope zooms, superspectrum image sensors, rear facing ToF sensors, wired and wireless reverse charging, ultra fast charging, graphene assisted batteries, 3D live modelling, dual video, AI image stabilisation, gradient shell designs, vapour chamber and microcapsule cooling, to name just a few, originate from?

And look at how many of those technologies and ideas you mention have panned out - not well.  Remember, a thousand ‘Nos’ to every ‘Yes.’  Just because Apple didn’t introduce a new feature doesn’t mean they didn’t look at it.  They may have simply decided it was not a mature enough idea to merit inclusion in their next product iteration.  Historically, Apple is not first to market with a new feature.  But when they do introduce it, it is typically well thought out and really for prime time.

Actually it would be refreshing if I could find original things to complain about Apple, but the fact remains that there’s simply far more egregious flaws to rail against in the bloggorati that’s trying to be critical without really being up to the task. 

Apple reaches a trillion dollar valuation and it doesn’t matter because “Microsoft is close too.” Microsoft was supposed to be unreachable far ahead and in control of the tech world. And here it’s barely competing with Apples market cap while making significantly less money. 

Apple’s issues with its 4% failure rate in MBP keyboards is real, but let’s recommend Surface hardware which has an even higher failure rate. That sort of absolutely nutty gibberish that passes for intelligent commentary from major media sites. 

And then you have our resident AI Samsung/Huawei posters demanding recognition of the innovation of “hole punch cameras,” after reviling the “notch” as a bad idea. How long did Avon think about that before typing it in? This person is like a font of nonsense. A Chatty Cathy pulling their own string.  

And lauding “screen fingerprint scanners” that don’t work and are poorly implemented, and far worse than the Touch iD they professed to hate. Remember Samsung’s Iris Scanner? It’s gone, just like the Edge screen. Temporal fad gimmicks. 

It’s amazing that Android licensees are so amazing yet can’t manage to attract even the slightest fraction of Apple’s premium sales. 

The latest reports from Vodafone and the UK detailing that Huawei is simply incompetent at security and refuses to fix massive problems and leaves open security backdoors above and beyond the security lapses in Android itself. And yet we are supposed to keep believing that China’s defeating Apple in pure cheapness when all its got is distantly third rate products that are wildly behind in both silicon hardware and software usability.
