Is Apple in trouble? 49% of Americans Think Galaxy S20 Will Outperform iPhone

Samsung’s latest Galaxy S20 and Z Flip have quickly become the topic of discussion because of their innovative features and specifications.

The S20 Ultra, for example, comes with an impressive 100x zoom on its rear camera lens and films in 8K. Meanwhile, the Z Flip is the first flip phone to offer split screen operations and an automatic selfie mode.

What, then, does this mean for Apple? The iPhone maker has been struggling with low sales of iPhones in recent years and the coronavirus outbreak isn’t helping the situation by putting a delay on production and supply.
