I keep on saying that Chinese OEMs/ODMs are Comprised on Privacy & Security Parameters..Since most of them having Server in China and your Data is at higher risk, though Oneplus has Conveyed that they have Server in India for Indian Region Phones but for others still doubtful..Even who knows they (OnePlus) have Synchronisation of Local Server with Main Server...May be or may not🤔 Since Chinese are not reliable at all...

Second and most important why I never prefer OnePlus over these Branded Phones Because of One big Security Threat....
Mostly in All High-Mid/High range Smartphones from Samsung You are not able to Power Off Or Increase/Decrease Sound (Ringtone,Media) in Samsung Device without Entering your Security Credentials in Device Lock Condition Nor you able to Disable/Off or Enable/On like Mobile Data, Wifi, Aeroplane mode etc when Enable One Setting in Secure Lock Settings →Lock Network & Security .But Not So with OnePlus, here I am taking example of OnePlus7. You can Power Off OnePlus7 in lock Condition and it doesn't ask for Security Credentials, it's a really big Security Threat, Since one can Stole your Phone and can easily make it Switched-Off and put it into the pocket and you are not able to trace it by Calling even if the Person is with you in Same Bus or at same Place...

Though one can Disable quick settings panel on lock screen in OnePlus7, So you can just protect of using Mobile Data, Wifi, Aeroplane mode in lock Condition..But You Can Power Off and increase or Decrease the ringtone in lock Condition...Is not these are big threat to the Security...Since making your Phone Silent on lock condition is also a big threat and this is why I consider Samsung Over Oneplus, though I bit disappointed with Samsung in terms of delay in Updates & Feature removal Policy...But I Focus more on Security & Privacy So I'll prefer Samsung over OnePlus and if at any point I have to leave Samsung then I'll go with Lg/Nokia/iPhone etc..By Seeing these Security Parameters...With Lg it is same as that of Samsung but about Nokia I am not aware....What's your Choice ???

going for every other than Samsung is not bad even though I agree Chinese are not well to do company because the China samsung is destroying them selves one thing really do t understand why on s21 samsung wants China display moreover I really don't understand when you have already achieved full screen display why on earth you want to push it further like China notch punch holes or tear drop notch this needs to stop

perfect display is with the top bezel not like gimmicky punch holes and notch






but the last thing is that I really don't like China for destroying samsung even though Samsung supplies those display but the thing is we really don't need such bezeless trend

as I said bro in these two parameters even I am also bit disappointed with Samsung but it doesn't mean that I'll compromise with security and privacy parameters... and we have shown our anger on this platform regarding these two from Samsung

lock network and security and enter pin to switch off is not available in any android mobile i used forget chinese. And yes I purchased samsung only because of these features.
But you know kuch logon ke liye kala akshar bhains barabar hota hai.
All they need is security updates.

Bro..Yes with No Chinese phone you will get this Functionality and in most of them you won't get Disable feature to Quick Settings Panel in lock Screen too..But LG has somewhat same Functionality like Samsung to enter Pin/Pattern/Password/Fingerprint to switch Off in lock Condition but it has option to Make Silent from quick settings Control panel like Samsung though you can't change the original status of Mobile data, wifi, Aeroplane mode on lock mode...

Oppo/Vivio is worst than that you can just open the notifications even in locked condition. and you can also fedel with the fingerprint scanner and unlock the phones.

No doubt samsung has better security feature than One Plus because the above mentioned features are a biggest threat. Samsung does not have to follow the bezzel less trends. even the latest iphone SE 2 (2020) has the top and bottom bezel and has all the latest features of IOS 13. Samsung is just chasing the hurds
