          if only that haha. anyway, I see no reason to shell out this kind of cash for a phone, it's not even funny :D

          I agree but thanks to coming from an iPhone, this kind of cash looks so much more appealing… It's cheaper than my laptop and PC.

                  I can buy a professional lens to make beautiful pictures for $1400. I can buy a professional laptop to process those photos on the go fro $1400. I cannot justify spending this kind of money on a phone haha

                  You can drop $1400 on a lens, plus $1400 on a laptop, and using your half decent DSLR/mirrorless body that cost >$1000 for a minimum outlay of $3800, you can produce better quality phots than a $1400 phone? Woah.

                      What is a professional $1400 lens compared to an unprofessional $1400 lens? And a professional $1400 laptop compared to an unprofessional $1400 laptop? If a phone costs $1400, does that make it a professional phone?

                      Not only can you take calls on the latest Hawaii and Samyung Phones, you can make calls, and send and receive text messages of more than 160 characters.

                        @aja12: still don't see a point. $1400 lens gives much more resolution at various apertures compared to a simple lens. professional laptop has colour accurate screen, huge battery, top quality components, and a 35W CPU to provide performance and endurance, that normal laptop doesn't have. so what does $1400 phone do that $400 phone does not?

                        • @[Deactivated]: Hello, just to add to some objectivness here.

                          I own a p20 pro and also a full frame Canon dslr with quite a few L series lens that I have since sold. I an holding on to a few lens still.

                          The p20 pro, does so much more than my dslr - based on what I use it for. (there are obvious situations where the dslr triumphs)

                          I would suggest you try out these newer camera phones, and review the results for yourself. There is a stark difference between a $400 phone and a p30 Pro (or similar) .

                          The biggest advantage is that it's in my hand and ready to go. I am not going to lug my camera bag everywhere. Apart from good post processing and photo options, the video stabilisation/slomo options are amazing.

                          I wouldnt do a wedding/photo session with a camera phone, but good luck trying to tell the difference with photos taken with either (based on similar focal lengths).

                          Enjoy.

                          • @Fijiboy: sigh. you say that as if I didn't know what I was talking about. I would love a phone to replace my camera, dear friend! I would love to, and my shoulders scream the same! I would love to ditch the 1.4 kg lens and 700g camera if a phone would give me the same DOF and oof area creamy blur! I would love a phone to give me same details in RAW as my camera! I would love that from the bottom of my heart, so every time a new phone comes out, I am there in the store to check the camera out (I haven't checked S10 yet because I was kind of busy). And you know what? Yes they are slowly getting there, but they are not quite there yet. when there's a phone that gives me what I need to do what I like, I will be putting my camera on eBay, along with the 3 lenses. But that hasn't happened yet. I know what you mean, though, and I have made a few photos with phone cameras that are worth showing to newspaper editors, but that's not saying much. also I don't care about video in any way shape or form! stabilised or not haha

                            p.s. and to be honest I think at the current rate of technology advancement, it will be another decade till we see full frame quality pictures from phone cameras. there's a reason why medium format cameras pull more details out of a scene than a 35mm sensor does, and it in turn is more detailed than a cropped sensor. yes we can develop more and more advanced processing algorithms and more powerful processors to run them on, but the smaller the mesh, the higher the noise, you can't work against physics of it, which is why a tiny sensor and tiny lens is never good enough, not today anyway.

                            • @[Deactivated]: You are right my friend.

                              I still love my faithful dslr; but its not my travel or family camera; it only comes out for those special events.

                              Each to their own.

                              In 10 years time, I have a feeling that photography will be different.

                              I'd suggest you still have a go with a p30 pro and see what the complete packaging is like. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Its not a like for like replacement for a 35mm body and a bag of lens, but it honestly does quite a few things better/quicker

                              Blessings.

                              • @Fijiboy: convinced :) I will, when prices go down to acceptable level.

                                6d is rather light compared with 5d, which is one reason I went with 6d instead. I wouldn't call 6d a heavy camera. 6d is 90% of 5d in a lighter package. and for family and travel I found a gem of a lens: 20-35 USM. it is light and perfect for all occasions, also if I manage to break one, they are $200 used off ebay. with lens profile they are no different from more expensive L glass, wide angle lets you fit whole family in, and at 35mm portraits of kids etcetera are very convincing!

                                so it will be hard to say that I would be easily motivated to switch to the phone on these occasions. the package is light, the controls are all in your hands, and the results never let me down. I switch to jpeg, zero post processing, straight to printer, and everyone is happy.

                                p.s. at night on a tripod said 20-35 doubles as a sharp landscape glass extraordinaire at f/16 haha

                                p.p.s. and 6d has WiFi, so 5 minutes after I am off the scene I am able to share the fruits of my labours which is pretty good I think. yes doesn't compare to phone cameras' snap and share workflow, but still.

                                and anyway, I am still not convinced a phone (phone! for crying out loud) can cost this much, however cool a camera on it was, it's just plain ridiculous.

                      @[Deactivated]: I don't think you realise how much a phone has become these days. It's almost surpassed the point of being a 'mini computer' where all you need is a monitor and a cable, and you can turn your phone into a full scale desktop computer. Phones are very much reaching the level of moderate PC performance where you could very easily get by with only a mobile phone these days. Look up the photos that phones can take these days, and compare it to your $4000~ camera set up and see if the average consumer sees that price over performance as being worth it.

        • Why not, the funny thing is, I would have if I don't already have two phones.

            @craving: Best camera is the one that you have on you. So unless you carry your camera with 50 different lenses with you all the time you are out and about. Your phone is the best camera you've got.

              @mbck: I cannot see myself selling prints from my phone camera. have you printed yours on A4?

              • +1

                @[Deactivated]: Daylights are fine. I've printed small canvas of the Melb CBD too, great quality.

                Nighttime, sure even huawei/google with their computational photography, may still struggle with prints.

                Some phones even come with raw mode btw, so you can still tweak (daylight) photos.

                In saying that, I don't think anyone is saying mobile cameras are better than dslrs,etc. Thats just not possible.

                I think the point is, most people would be more than happy with the versatility and quality of a phone. Obviously if this isn't for you, then that's fair. But considering the mobile industry is in the billions of dollar figure, that shows for the majority, they're happy.

                @aja12: The Nova 3i is actually a pretty decent phone and at the price of $400 its hard to argue against it especially when comparing it to flagships at their exorbitant prices.

                I'd like to see it as paying a third of the cost of a flagship whilst attaining 80% of the features for most consumers.

                Do we really need 3 or 4 cameras or the newest processor? Probably not, but you can't put a price on materialism and the desire for luxury.

                    Anyway, I doubt you googled it because if you did, you would have found your phone, compared to an S10, has lower res and worse screen, no NFC, worse processor, less RAM, worse camera, older USB standard, etc.

                    • -2

                      @Mister Popo: ok, and that's a reason to pay $600 more for S10? and you are sliding here, because it takes a certain kind of vision to enjoy oversaturated colours of Samsung OLED phone screens. they look unnatural. I use my phone to rate photos taken on my camera, and that's one reason I do not own a Samsung, the colours are wrong. NFC whatever for? processor and ram: what should I be doing on it to notice the difference? I don't play games. worse camera: not a serious argument, it is still a tiny sensor attached to a little piece of glass, improvements are marginal. older usb standard.. shall I start laughing. I have more micro USB cables around the house than the usb-c ones, so I am less likely to be caught without one. also my previous phone had usb-c, I haven't noticed any disadvantages going back. so what are the real advantages?

                      the point is, let's step back and take a look at the bigger picture here. technology progress is in a stalemate. things are already great! fast, portable, cool, and shiny! the "improvements" of new models make little sense, but are marketed as breakthrough, which they are not! we already are spoiled. what I would like people to do, is put that money into something more valuable than a new phone, like a holiday for crying out loud! haha. just stop and think about it for a minute: they want you to drop $1k+ for something that is yes better than the old one, but doesn't give you any value! wouldn't you want to spend that money in a more constructive way?

                  • @[Deactivated]: Considering you didn't know what features were on the highly publicised S10, I really doubt you knew anything about the P30 Lite

            @DvApps: OK let's do analysis. what do we have here.

            more LTE bands. wow I'm excited. oh, 2000 mbps vs 600. hmmm what would I do with that speed? I would fill my phone internal memory in 1 minute downloading at that speed, so? next! another oversaturated AMOLED screen. higher pixel density? I haven't noticed any pixels on mine, they're that small already, do we need them smaller? I didn't think I needed that? phew. next, CPU. octa core bla bla I don't care my CPU is fast enough, and also octa core so screw them. next! microsd - err what would I put there? I have 128GB of internal space on my phone, filled to 25%, and I download photos from my camera on it every day. I didn't know I needed that much space, I don't even have a microsd in mine! camera pfff spare me if you please, it's another phone snapper, good enough to fill the void. speakers pfff who cares I have bluetooth headphones, never use phone speakers they are all awful! wifi OK oops huawei screwed up here without ac, but Wi-Fi is normally OFF on my phone anyway, mobile data is 10x quicker than wifi! NFC don't care, had it on my Sanmsung last year, cool feature, but still I pay with my cards, so who cares. some bixby crap, battery, OK we're done!

            So in real life scenario, only Wi-Fi is better. But if it was a selling point to me, I would probably just go back to Samsung A5 2017 I sold last year to buy this nova 3i! It was a fine phone, waterproof, snappy, solid, and with good camera. so, what is really new here? we're back to the original question. anyway I am tired of this nonsense. You have $1k lying around to get a new toy, be my guest. If I had $1k lying around, I would probably fly to Singapore and back instead haha

                @aphexx: but it's so vane. vanity fair all over again! haha

            • @[Deactivated]: The Nova 3i & Nokia 6.1+ are bargin basment phones that are amazing bang4buck quaility look and feel. Just because you paid more does not mean you get much more.

              often for the extra $700-1200 you get maybe NFC (seems lacking on the budget end), wireless charging (not a must have but you get used to it) and extra camera lens at a better resolution. About $50 extra in parts or $100 if you toss in more memory, faster cpu and better screen and thats retail. Parts are a fraction of that!!!

            • @[Deactivated]: Your points actually make no sense.

              1. hmmm what would I do with that speed? I would fill my phone internal memory in 1 minute downloading at that speed

              So then we should never improve on internet speeds right? Why not stick with dial up just to make sure we don't fill up our 128-512gb of internal storage, not to mention uptown 1tb expandable storage.

              another oversaturated AMOLED screen. higher pixel density? I haven't noticed any pixels on mine, they're that small already, do we need them smaller? I didn't think I needed that? phew

              It's the best display available on the market, don't even try and compare your shitty display to this.

              next, CPU. octa core bla bla I don't care my CPU is fast enough, and also octa core so screw them. next!

              This depends on your workload, even if it's just basic web browsing, you will have a better experience and also be future proofed for longer than a worse performing CPU.

              microsd - err what would I put there? I have 128GB of internal space on my phone, filled to 25%, and I download photos from my camera on it every day. I didn't know I needed that much space, I don't even have a microsd in mine!

              Fair enough, I would agree as well

              camera pfff spare me if you please, it's another phone snapper, good enough to fill the void.

              Compared to the nova3i it's much better

              speakers pfff who cares I have bluetooth headphones, never use phone speakers they are all awful!

              Fair enough if you don't use it then I guess it doesn't matter

              wifi OK oops huawei screwed up here without ac, but Wi-Fi is normally OFF on my phone anyway, mobile data is 10x quicker than wifi!

              So it has slower LTE and also slower wifi speeds, even if you keep the wifi off, it proves your own point wrong that you don't need faster LTE speeds, even just web browsing will be slower.

              NFC don't care, had it on my Sanmsung last year, cool feature, but still I pay with my cards, so who cares.

              NFC is seriously useful, even if you use your cards, you never know when you're going to forget your wallet at home or in your car, and it makes it much more convenient to just tap your phone than pull out your wallet and try to find a card

              • @DvApps: I don't know how you will notice difference in lte speed or cpu performance, everything is in a blink of an eye already. lte was a huge step forward from 3g because the speed was suddenly x10, and delay between request and response became much shorter in addition to that. but step between 600 and 2000 mbps is the same as bike vs sports car when you need to travel 50 metres. you will get there in a second whatever you choose! the rest is minor convenience, including NFC. In my whole life I had 2 occasions when I forgot the wallet, and last time it happened I just used cardless cash from CBA. also there are just 3 payment cards in my wallet, so finding one is quicker than digging into phone menus. once again, had NFC in my old phone. don't miss it in the current one. and the screen, come on, you are talking to a photographer here. I had Samsung phones twice in the past, and holding them next to calibrated screen on my laptop.. colours are oversaturated and wrong. when you say "best screen" it means "appealing to the eye of an average person", that doesn't mean "accurate" or "good" at all. yeah, probably action movies would look punchy on it, and so will photos taken on the phone's camera. but still, summing all above up, I see no reason to pay upwards of $1k for a phone, because there are no real advantages to it. some drawn out marketing pitch, and some higher numbers here and there. $400 phone is plenty, and that's that. I love technology my friend, I really do! but we live in the future already, if you haven't noticed, and all the improvements are marginal.

              @aja12: I don't see a point here. the camera is generating revenue. the laptop is generating revenue. I won't be generating revenue with a cheaper camera (unless it's 7d perhaps, but it's not my game). phone is not generating revenue! and those improvements are marginal at best! how am I supposed to throw money away to pay for them?

                @[Deactivated]: You're arguing like its camera vs camera here. Are you also angry at phones because they can't wash your dishes as well as your dishwasher? A phone isn't made to compete against professional photography. A phone is much more than a camera. Stop comparing a $2.5k device that does nothing but take pictures against a phone, which believe it or not, can do much more than take pictures.

                  @FR3D99: no, you missed the point completely haha. it was the other guy who asked me to compare cameras. I am saying that I cannot justify buying a phone for $1k+, because there's zero benefit in doing so compared to a much cheaper phone, like nova 3i that I already have. what those extra $600 I am paying are buying me here? no one can reply so far. I would love it to wash my dishes and my car, too for that money! haha this turned out to be such fun.

                • @FR3D99: also you are wrong, I am not angry or mad, I am trying to understand, what is exactly with these phones that they cost so much? what makes you buy one? what makes you or anyone here think it's a good deal? I think it's a waste of money! I just want to understand, seriously, but no one can tell me so far. sounds like it's got some super camera, which I doubt, anything else?

                  • @[Deactivated]: Some ppl prefer the better features, nicer display, better performance, better camera etc

                    Do you really need to ask the question?

                    • @JDKC: yes I do. let me tell you the simple story here. I see this thread. I see that a phone costs $1k+. I think "wow, this phone got to do miracles at this price, what's the breakthrough?", I open a comparison say on gsmarena with the phone that I have, and what do I see? just some higher numbers here and there, faster cpu (but they are already blazing fast!), smaller pixels on the screen (but they are already damn small!), better camera (but phone cameras still suck, why even bother), I see no breakthrough here, so I am asking people an honest question: what would justify spending so much more on a phone that doesn't do anything differently? the quality of experience is the same, so what are you paying for? higher specs is just a word, and it doesn't mean anything. 3g vs lte that was a breakthrough. HD to FullHD on mobile phones that was a breakthrough. IPS on phones instead of TN that was breakthrough. Capacitive touch screen on the phone instead of resistive, that was a breakthrough. glass on the screen instead of plastic, that was a breakthrough. oleophobic coating was a breakthrough. but they all now have everything above! so what are you paying extra for? just for being able to say "oh, it's got better specs"? then just come out and say so haha "no added value for my money, I am just a victim of marketing"

              @aja12: also every feature I mentioned is a huge step up for a camera. smart auto ISO: I don't have to jump around between Av and Tv when I walk around the city in and out of the shadow, I can stay in Av and rest assured that shutter won't drop below 1/250. low light sensitivity is an eye opener because shots made at ISO 6400+ are suddenly usable and printable. MFA is a must because with it focusing is always spot on, and the amount of keeper shots is suddenly higher by an order of magnitude. Ability to remap controls by preset means that I can go between 1-click shots with auto focus point to back button focusing and partial exposure with a flick of a switch, on a cheaper camera that would take me 20+ seconds to configure. all of these improvements are mission critical, and I am happy to pay for them, because they help me in photography.

              now if we look at mobile phones, what is the difference, the mission critical difference between say S10 and nova 3i that would make you pay more for it? maybe weatherproofing, alright, then let's compare A8 and S10, both are weatherproof. what is it, camera? well, is it worth such big difference? you can buy a decent MFT camera for the difference, that is light and compact and takes far better pictures. I just fail to see the point in buying top of the line phones any more. at times of S6 S7 it was probably true, but now all these improvements are laughable, come on.

              • @[Deactivated]: Look I've also mentioned the issue I have with these prices previously and current crop don't warrant the prices they are demanding IF you compare them to previous models n prices so I agree with you there … however i don't think it's what you said but how it comes across when you said it that gets people riled up….

                Here's a funny thing.. For the past close to 2 years now, I've had it in my head that my note 8 I got for a bargain price of $897 was the most I've ever paid for a 'phone'…. Then I realised when I posted in another thread that I've been using 'smart phones' from back when they were glorified PDAs… And then I remembered wait those rubbish win ce based things used to cost my work over 1k to get for me… So as much as I won't pay those Apple n top Sammy prices I will however shell out a decent amount for a good bang for your buck smart phone….

                Just like you would for a camera… Smart phones are essential to me and I hardly ever use it as a phone… Ive been in IT for 20+ years and now I don't even need to sit in front of a pc or laptop When I get home… That to me is priceless… Just like the SLR and it's features are invaluable to you….

                Keep on snapping… I admire good photographers alot!

                  @scud70: Thank you for a polite and intelligent reply for a change, very much appreciated.

                  I know what you are saying, then again I don't understand what is it that one can do on S10 that you can't do without degradation of quality of experience on last years top of the line phone? It runs exactly the same apps, it has a better screen fine, but how much better is it? Is it even relevant to the experience and what I am able or not able to do on it?

                  I use my phone a LOT, and I am in IT, too. Heck, I am even able to do my job from my phone when I really have to, because a lot of it is in the cloud, and often I just need to flick a switch somewhere, and mobile browser does just fine. Also I can remote desktop into a server to check something, too, which is very cool. But I have been doing it for 3+ years now, on phones of various generations, and does the latest phone I have make me do this easier? faster? more convenient? it does not.

                  I just do not see how can I be convinced to pay $$$ more for something that just "has better specs" well, it does! I don't doubt it for a second! But will I feel the difference? I won't. Just like if you take latest 15W Intel CPU's (most laptops are equipped with those), there's 5% difference in performance between i5 and i7, but you will pay $$ premium for that i7 label on your laptop.

                  my point is, your average mobile phone is already great. last year's average phone was already great, too! It does everything you need! And it does it quick. So why, maybe you can tell me why, why would I want to buy a $1k+ phone that is apparently latest and greatest? I would just get an average phone with a good screen (not oversaturated Samsung OLED panel), be done with it, and tunnel saved cash towards something that actually adds value. Anyway, I am done raving here haha I need to process some photos.

                  Thanks again :)

                  • @[Deactivated]: Just curious, in your opinion which is better, Huawei P30 Pro or Samsung s10/s10 +?

    • Thanks to iPhone XS MAX…

    • Looks like I will keep my Mate 10 Pro for another year. It is not as shiny, but it takes good photos and does what I need.

  • +3

    if this was 999 i would buy it. that extra 80 is annoying me. i feel ripped off if i spend more than 1000

    • +3

      Buy the S10e

      • +3

        but i heard it has horrible battery life, and coming from s6 with garbage battery life, i have a fear of running out of battery while im out everyday, my current phone looses its battery in 2 hrs sot i wana feel like i upgraded, s10e wont cut it in the battery department

        or i can just upgrade the battery of the s6 and squeeze out another 6months from it..
        v30+ is a great deal but that damn thing came out in 2017, if i am buying a new phone i want it to last at least 3 years, my s6 i bought i the first day it came out. and still rocking it, everything is good except the battery life, yes everything, no lag, no freeze, fast performance, amazing screen, decent camera. just horrible horrible battery life..

        • Where did you see the S10e has poor battery? I heard that it was around 5-6 hrs SOT? And from what I’ve seen/read, the regular S10 has worse battery life than the S10e.

          • @callumds: bro watch the comments from the last s10e amazon deal, everyone complaining..
            also most reviews mention it, very average battery life

            • @striker5950: It seems like they fixed it in the late march update. Anyway, you said you were preferencing the s10 over the s10e for battery and from the reviews I've seen the s10 has worse battery life because of the marginally larger battery, but a ~25% larger screen.

              • @callumds: well a battery life comparison on youtube shows that the s10 has 20 mins longer SOT time so..

      • S10e is nearly the same price from mobileciti :-(
        (And compared to the EPP deals it is just too expensive - too many people have access to the deals so the resale value suffers big time)

      • best deal with 10% off I saw was $829! delivered… must hurt resale value but its about what a 10e's worth new max anyway as good as it is, its not all that good.

        geewiz, a fingerprintscanner in the power button, the old nokia I had over a decade ago had that!

        • 829?? i would pay that, do you look for such deals on ebay?

      • I just returned s10e to Officeworks from the Amazon price match deal, as the battery life is horrible. s10e loses 50% of battery just for taking 5 pics, 10 mins of google maps use within 4 hours of 100% charged. I will be going for s10+.

  • wait for mate pro 30 with 6 cameras and Kirin 985

      wait for 30 cameras in 6 years.

    • The problem with Huawei is they never pioneer at video recording, still giving 4k@30fps.

      Never ever buy when they first come out.Look at all the noise the Mate 20 pro made.Now its whimpering at the $1000 mark.

      This P30 pro will be $1000 within a few months…
