Samsung Galaxy S20 or OnePlus 8?

Posted on 06/22/2020 8:25:52 AM PDT by ClaytonForester

I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place. I'm in dire need of a new phone. I've narrowed my choices to the Galaxy S20, the OnePlus 8, or the OnePlus 8 Pro. Does anyone have experience with anyone of these? Which would you recommend? Is there something else better in the same price range?

I’ve had my Samsung for that long.

But I don’t want to replace it with something else made in China.

My biggest problem is that I like and use my stylus. If I get amother cell phone, I want one that comes with a stylus.

“Because I can’t remove battery to go dark”

If it is switched off is it still trackable?

I just got a OneNote 5G with T-Mobile because they had a great 50% off promotion. I'm personally not a huge fan of the curved edges, but it is a high powered phone at a great price.

Really regretting T-Mobile, though....

How about the Motorola G Power. Big Battery, headphone jack, no wireless charging, no NFC. I can buy 4 for the price of either phone.


Communist Chinese garbage

One feature about Android phones is you can get a great automatic phone recorder from the Play Store.

What specific app are you recommending? Thanks.

I have never wanted or needed my cell phone to be another computer.

Every cell phone I have had has always had what I considered useless features I had other, and better, equipment made to order for those functions.

Cell phones are going the way of Microsoft and Google - trying to be the be-all to end-all and ending the cheap price of just getting basic phone and text service accomplished.

Made in China...home of the Wuhan Flu (which destroyed the economies of the world’s civilized nations).

My S7, at 4 years, has also been rock solid. The battery is showing some degradation, but it’s getting close to 1000 discharge cycles. I will probably stay with Samsung.

My wife got a Galaxy S20 Ultra a few weeks ago and she absolutely loves it! When it comes to electronics and son on, she’s says “they make her hair hurt”. This tells me that her phone is perfect for her!

My Galaxy S10 is operating perfectly so it will be a while before I get the S20 Ultra for myself.

This one?

Most recent reviews look pretty brutal.

Yeah, for the low, low price of $1999.00.

I bought the Samsung S20 about 3 months ago. My other Samsung had lasted 2.5 years and just quit working one day. My previous Samsung had the larger screen, and it’s been difficult to get used to the S20. Functionality, no issues. Battery does last a fairly long time. I would give it a thumbs up, with just the missing of the larger screen being my sole issue.

We all pay through the nose somehow--if not in cash, then in privacy. You can choose.
