I have note 8, pixel 2 xl, razer phone and onePlus 5t to partner with iPhone X. I can say note 8 is the best because it is the only phone that can do something iPhone X cant do.
Galaxy note 8 (despite not so good battery life), allows u to have extra functionality like s-pen whenever u need it. It is also a perfect all rounder phone with ip rating (vs Oneplus 5t and razer), dual sim (vs pixel 2 xl), microSD slot (vs oneplus 5t and pixel 2 xl).

Plus both iPhone X and Note 8 support the same wireless charger.

Wow just curious why do you need so many phones laugh.gif
So note 8 is even better than the pixel 2 XL?

I bought to play / test then sell off to friends or here.

Pixel 2 Xl is a great phone, I like it very much. But it is too similar with iPhone X (android edition though tongue.gif).

With note 8, at least you have something a lil bit different for different purpose.

Refurbished by Apple itself is way better than used set.

Dont mistaken with illegally refurbished by 3rd party or ahbeng shop.

Weird. I used to heard that iPhone was very solid, stable, no hang before. But now since iPhone 8/8 plus / X era with ios11, many of my friends and even I feel that is no longer the case.

My galaxy note 8, htc u11+ and even pixel 2 xl have no weird bugs like current iPhone.

I had 3 iPhone X in total (gray SG set, silver MY set, and gray MY set), all stimes got weird bugs. Battery icon disappear, whatsapp window shrunken to the middle, unable to touch to answer call, phone stuck in landscape mode in certains apps like whatsapp, youtube video doesnt want to minimize, and many more.

And I’m not alone.

It's iOS problem. Hardware is good i guess. No laggy, all smooth, but buggy right.

So as a user, should we feel good about that? Hardware or software it doesn't matter. Any issue still affects our usage. It's not like we can simply change the OS. Lol.

Set ur orientation lock. Issues fixed

It's not a solution. My point is, iPhone itself has lots of bugs. So stop dreaming.

iOS is not perfect but these features really catch my heart hence my departure from Android platform this year:

1. First iPhone with a new design after 4 generations
2. iOS is the boss, apps cannot run in background, access location and private data unless explicitly allowed. Unlike in android where google play services basically can do anything it likes.
3. Finally a stable Bluetooth stack. Things just work.
4. No contest when it comes to standby time and idle drain. iOS just rules.
5. Apps generally look and feel more high quality on iOS.
6. Notifications are a bit of a mess but can be disabled easily in one place.
7. Bloody fast NVME storage.

Oh yeah another thing. Auto brightness algorithm is so much better than all my previous android phones. All in all definitely not a perfect device and os. Balanced is the word I’d use.

I agree with some points you mentioned here. Also about no phone is perfect. I just hope iPhone should be more solid than it is now.. doesn't matter if the issue comes from software or hardware.

With all the weird bugs it has, it feels a bit funny reading people embracing or worshipping iPhone..

i always believe iPhone during standby halt the battery movement to close to none.. thus leads to impressive standby time.. because once we used it for a while, it's very fast to drop to around 92-94%.. the 6-8% drops is significantly faster than drops occur when the battery is at 80% (for eg.)
