I actually don't like this "waterfall" display. Its meaningless other than for aesthetics and just makes getting a screen protector a pain or costly affair.

Also I do hope the new telescope lens will allow incremental zoom levels instead of just 5x or 10x. While a long range zoom is good to have, in most cases people will use a 2 to 3x zoom to get closer to an object that is not that far. 5x or even 10x is too close to the object to be useful.

Could have made a bigger camera sensor instead of having more lens.

While having a bigger sensor is the preferred option, it is already pushing it currently due to how physically thin these phones are. And increasing sensor only helps with light capture and thus, better photo quality. Each lens on the phone is specialized for certain use. Think of a DSLR where, you will need to switch lens when you want to do macro shots, wide angle shots, zoom, etc. The likes of the TOF lens is really just to create depth of field in your shots since phone cameras are limited physically to create natural bokeh shots.

You can always side load gms.

People are just too anal that some apps does not work well. If u want best apps and eco system, go Apple. One hardware for all software.

The android are so fragmented due to so many Brand’s of android and not all android apps will work well across devices. Of cos the flexibility for android over Apple is customisation and side loading apps that allow u to stream videos and media from a 3rd parties source like a PC which I believe Apple will never allow such things to happen.


No GMS will mean it's good as dead to most people here.

This is exactly what I did, move back to Apple. I do miss some of the great features on Android phones like a nice full screen high refresh rate screen and easy transfer of files. But I do agree that Android is just too fragmented and with the rise of HMS, even more so.

With google firm on banning it, Google can easily block all the side loading methods

There is so many android devices and google is just a suite of application and all device ID is unique. They won't go all the hassle to ban you and you are giving them to collect personal info for their google big data collection for ads and analytics. :p

You are right. Is a matter of time. Worse case is today work tomorrow may not. So if really need Google apps, why take the risk?
