I will never buy Huawei or iPhone phones as well.
But one or two brands that I will suggest my friends to avoid is samsung and Huawei. No doubt these are good big phone manufacturers but the quality is still not there.
HTC and Sony are better phones but due to lack of marketing budget comparable to Samsung, Huawei or Apple, their sales can't growth.

It is user preferable.
The only 3 common brand I not suggest is Oppo, Vivo and Asus.

Oppo always over price with middle range spec.
Vivo is much cheaper and sometimes even came with better spec but the build quality is not the same level as Oppo. Even though both from same father.

Asus too many bloatware. Asus no need recommended already a lot people reject it now because it do famous once and that famous make people though Asus phone battery very bad thanks to Intel power hunger and bad power management. Intel out from mobile market is a great choice.

HTC? Sorry to said HTC already dead after HTC M8.

Sony is good but not great. I never recommended and never ask people ignore also. Those love Sony still can consider it as it still a decent phone.

I highly recommended user get Samsung, iPhone & Huawei for flagship phone.

For middle range, Mi is the well recommended brand. Honor also not bad.

oppo always find those artist to promote their phone in order to promote how good is their selfie
but seriously, their target only works on female customers, not male

For all you know, it's tuned by akg that's all, no where near audiophile grade. Most likely they shove a small dynamic driver and brand it with akg. Even the mi pistons pack better specs.

So yeah 320kbps mp3 will do just fine.
*
in your opinion piston 3 vs akg which is nicer to listen to?

i have those 2 and cant seem to decide..

Huawei crappy ? Seriously have u used any
My opinion HW makes very good phones having used the 6.1, X1, Mate7, Mate8, Mate 9 pro n Mate9.
It can easily rivalled most high end phones these days
U make this conclusion just on its recent p10 series storage type issue ???

Btw the S8+ isn't that great for its price vs the much cheaper LG G6. I am using both now

surely you should compare S8 with G6 no?

and S8 is only slightly more expensive than the G6.

S8 is around rm3.1 k while G6 is only rm2.4k now. RM700 is a big difference to me. Anyway I paid rm3.6k for S8+ and 2.7k for G6

The S8 can be bought for between 2770 to 2900 right now. So taking your word for G6 current price at rm2.4k..

well the difference isnt much of a difference. Because you compare the s8+ with g6 of course gap is big, because s8+ is not an apple to apple comparison.

S8 vs G6 is a better comparison, both 18:9, both screen sizes almost the same 5.7 vs 5.8 therefore its only fair to use the S8 as the benchmark.

So for rm 300 more you get a significantly better looking phone along with its samsung software features some are so good while some are gimmick if you dont use or utilize them. Oh not to forget you also get the latest 10nm procs vs G6's outdated procs,

While you only really lose out on dual camera functionality against tthe G6. Thats if you even use it. If you talk about your normal standard pictures, IMO S8 looks nicer than the G6.

So for you to say the S8+ or in this case the s8 "isnt that great of a device" for its price compared to the G6 is just mind boggling.

LoL... so what's up with mass comparison with other brands flagship? Hahaha...

In the end, all these inequalities that can't be compared straight up means nothing in the end. The benchmark being used in the end would be economy since it's the only common element found for all these devices.

I am saying it from an actual user experience and not theoretical argument based on specs. I will post my assessment of both later

I agree with you that iPhones are not for everyone. But in case, this has escaped you, neither is Samsung.

In the same breath as you shot down Huawei, one can also say the brands you mentioned you own, belong to the dumps. And I am curious as to the definition of crappy in your mind. Why you have a demeanour where you crucify other brands just to elevate Samsung, particularly in this S8, is beyond many? Why could you not just heap praises on same and validate them by expounding, which would be the decent thing to do and in this manner, you would get more yays than nays.
