Podcast!! Talking about 4 Android Ultra phones, do you choose Samsung or the rest?

Hello everyone, today Huy and I sat down to look back at this year's genuine Android Ultra lineup in Vietnam, with everything from S26 Ultra, Oppo Find X9 Ultra, Xiaomi 17 Ultra to Vivo X300 Ultra. It's been an exciting year for the flagship segment as Chinese companies bring more Ultra versions to Vietnam.
Each device is different, but I personally use the S26 Ultra the most because of balance. The cam cluster design is not too thick or heavy like some Chinese machines, it feels balanced and comfortable to hold. Samsung's plus point is that One UI is well optimized, AI features are easy to access, but the battery life is normal and the camera is admittedly weaker than the other three.

Meanwhile, this Chinese camera system takes very high-quality photos thanks to its large sensor and cooperation with reputable camera companies. Huy most likes the warm, high-contrast Leica photo colors on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, especially the black and white shooting mode. The Oppo Find X9 Ultra is a comprehensive device overall, with a smooth operating system, very familiar to anyone who has ever used an iPhone. As for the Vivo

There are a few things that I find annoying about the Chinese machine: the cam cluster is large so when shaken it easily makes a clicking sound, making me feel a bit nervous. In addition, their adaptive refresh rate screen sometimes squeezes itself down to 60-90Hz in some apps like YouTube and Instagram, not a smooth 120Hz like the way Samsung or Apple do. On the contrary, the silicon-carbon battery of Chinese devices is very strong, this is something Samsung needs to learn in the future.

In short, if you save money now, I think the S26 Ultra is still the most worth buying because of its extremely good price and many incentives in Vietnam. Chinese Ultras cost around 40-40 million due to the increased cost of components such as chips and RAM, so they will be a bit more picky about who they can approach. How about you guys, which one of these four do you like the most?
