Also it's Global so it works on any carrier basically.

Nope never here's my thoughts and true story.

Samsung is done there's way to much phones out now that will out perform any Samsung phone, OnePlus 13 is one another is OnePlus 15, another is Xiaomi 17 Pro Max , and i can keep going, So Samsung, Pixel and iPhone just can't compete with the phones i mentioned, my OnePlus 13 out performed my S25 and S24 Both Ultra lol , and I will be ordering the OnePlus 15 .


PS same phone look every year not and upgrade, I won't be that person that Samsung takes advantage of. Repeating the same look alike phone , Samsung is no longer and won't ever be King. Same old boring looking phone.
Better Hardware better software way better battery way better ultra super charge , IRblaster and so on , The USA phones Samsung, Pixel, iPhone need to get there heads outta of you know where lol

Those are some very broad strokes in the story you painted for us. Samsung is not finished or dead. The phones you mentioned are great phones and they deserve recognition. But still lack in distribution and inclusion. Some Chinese brands won't ever come to countries like the US for IP copying and would get sued. Why aren't these brands offered by the carriers in the US. If there was demand for them they would be offered for sure.

I have tried several of the phones you listed in the last few years. For me personally they just don't measure up to to Samsung or Apple.
They do some things well but fall short in the overall user experience for me anyway

Verizon can get very picky usually there are some bands for low long range areas that are not supported unfortunately , one phone that I was looking at was that Oppo x9 pro where it was not fully supported at last look. I think at the end of the day the support by Samsung Google and iPhone work best for many people in US and can still enjoy a phone. I love my OnePlus 13 which soon will upgrade to 15 but meanwhile can't stop using my Fold 7 haha

I would trade in for this phone lol

I'd pay 2 grand for it but might as well add a 4K screen.

based on what I've seen, so far, my S24U (paid for) is looking pretty sweet.

I have to wait and see. Likewise, I have an S24 Ultra fully paid for. Unless there is something that is new to the S26 Ultra that isn't available on the S24 Ultra or my S24 Ultra has a catastrophic failure, there is a good chance I won't upgrade.

The s24u Samsung did it right, unless the s26u has major upgrades I would stay with s24u
