For whatever reason it happens, DXOMark tests iPhones after a much
longer interval from their release than other phones.

Alan,
How many iPhones has Apple ever made?

I haven't counted them.

o And how many are on the tested list at this very moment?

Again, I haven't counted.


HINT: Almost all of them.

You seem to be making the famous claim that the next phone will be the
killer even though _all_ the prior phones aren't even on the top ten.

Nope. I'm not making that claim at all.

I'm claiming that in a fast-moving and competitive marketplace, it makes
a large difference to where a product will come out in testing if you
test it significantly later than than its competition.

Let's look at the top 10:

Phone Score Release Test Posted Delay Country

Huawei
P40 Pro 128 2020-04-07 2020-03-31 -7 China


Honor
30 Pro+ 125 2020-04-21 2020-04-15 -6 China

(Again: test posted BEFORE the phones release. -6


Oppo
Find X2 Pro 124 2020-03-06 2020-03-06 0 China


Xiaomi
Mi 10 Pro 124 2020-02-18 2020-02-13 -5 China


Huawei
Mate 30 Pro 5G 123 2019-10-23 2019-12-17 +47 China


Honor
V30 Pro 122 2020-02-?? 2020-01-17 -?? China


Samsung
Galaxy S20 Ultra 122 2020-03-06 2020-04-22 +47 S.Korea

Huawei
Mate 30 Pro 121 2019-09-26 2019-09-26 0 China

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro
Premium Edition 121 2019-11-11 2019-11-05 -6 China

Samsung Galaxy
S20+ 118 2020-03-06 2020-05-11 66 S.Korea

Apple iPhone
11 Pro Max 117 2019-09-20 2019-11-07 48 USA

In only ONE case in there, did a Chinese company's phone have a
significant delay between release and testing.



It's classic for you apologists to simply fabricate your excuses for Apple.

What your response proves is you're _desperate_ to fabricate an excuse for
why _every_ iPhone that _was_ already tested (and that's literally almost
every iPhone ever made!), isn't even on the top ten.

When Apple iPhone are regularly tested after a long delay, it is natural
that other products that get test without delay (and even BEFORE their
release) are going to arrive with better specifications.


What's interesting is how _desperate_ you apologists are to claim that
Apple MARKETING brochures are the gospel and that every tester on the
planet is being _bribed_ by everyone but Apple (according to nospam)...

Why else are iPhones almost never even in the top list of camera QOR?
o It must be a conspiracy because MARKETING brochures are so very pretty.

They ARE in the top list, Liar.

Wasn't it you who said there are 24,000 models of Android phone?

Don't they all have cameras?

Or is that claim now inconvenient?


How could an Apple MARKETING brochure possibly not be right!
o nospam: It must be that Apple didn't _bribe_ the reliable testers
o Baker: It must be that the reliable testers _forgot_ Apple existed

From the FACTS, it certainly looks like Chinese manufacturers are
getting better treatment.

Is it that all Chinese phones are getting tested early or is that
iPhones are getting tested late? No matter what the answer is, why is
there that difference? It is unlikely to be bribery unless all Chinese
manufacturers bribe DxO Mark.
