I think it is a little OCD obsessing over reviews & what they think. To real world usage battery tests on reviews are not realistic as they are done in optimal conditions. Saying a website is paid by a manufacturer is just plain daft. If they prefer another brand over another then who cares?? 
Phone?? What phone?? |

What are you talking about? Have you got any proof that they paid those websites? Didn't Phonearena publish an article stating that Samsung's screen is far from the best? Why would they do that if they were paid by zdamsung

Awful example as Phonearena have mentioned before this that they don't believe its the best display, what they posted today was a thorough explanation on why.
Quit clutching straws.

You said they paid websites. They didn't. You should start trying to climb out of the hole you've dug yourself into. |

Sorry for going off topic too. But I want to give an example a-brand-paying-the-website is a real thing.
http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g_[....]esign_award_2014-news-7957.php
In the above article you may find gsma is writing an article about the LG G Flex winning iF Design Award 2014. There are 3 strange things here:
1. The article is sourced from the LG website, not from the iF Design website.
2. The article only talks about the LG G Flex winning the gold award despite the HTC One M7 also winning the gold award.
3. It does not say any other smartphones from other companies that won some awards too. Instead the article tries to reaffirm why the G Flex won the Gold award.
It is happening. That's why I don't trust any tech websites for their reviews. With money, you can just do anything. It may be a coincidence, but look what PA is comparing the s5 against! |
