Not commenting because I'm a Samsung guy, as a matter of fact I'll straight up say I hate fanboy/fangirlz.
While the OPPO may have come out on top, it doesn't mean much when there is brand reliability issues. Obviously any phone can have issues but if you look at Reddit, it's always Xiaomi, OPPO, RedMagic that have some person (who according to them) didn't do anything or installed an update and it's in a bricked state and they don't know what to do.
That said, the phone world has gotten lost in phones being all about the camera. The majority of flagships are great, one is only unequivocally better when compared side-by-side. That aside, we see so many comparisons but no actual owners (exceptions of course) of people with said phones sharing their pictures. How often does the at the time "best phone camera" have a thread where users actually actively share amazing pictures to share?
OEMs have become stale and media feeds into it. It's time for Android phones to be innovative again in software and hardware. Right now it feels like new model year cars and iPhones. Incremental, usually insignificant changes.
