Yes because it's a tedious and I'll say again, incoherent thing to moan about when it's inevitable Samsung will use their own parts. You only have to understand why there's even a requirement for the QC model people can test against.
I'm not saying it's not a problem, i get you've got issues, what I'm saying is twofold.. firstly, the millions upon millions of people who are buying these things are not experiencing the issues you're having for the most part or it would be bend/antenna/batterygate all over again.
Secondly it's a waste of time and energy to even hope Samsung wouldn't use their own product in 100% of cases if they could, regardless of a performance delta to the QC part.
I keep coming back to the analogy on car engines. Vertically integrated companies use their own parts. Period. They try and make them better/competitive, they do't tend o use 3rd party ones just for a performance increase in certain scenarios.
Car engines have to abide by quite a few specific requirements and regulations, be it emissions, economy or performance. This is where Samsung can get away with it, there isn't a set of metrics these SoCs have to abide to at all, just whatever marketing department spits out for the given year really. As long as they don't lie about number of cores and Mhz it's all god really as far as average Joe is concerned (and regulators I imagine).
Point isn't that anyone is hoping for anything like them not using their own parts, point is that product which costs the same exists in different markets that performs at different levels. In good cases difference is small, in bad cases you're getting quite a substantially worse product with no hope of resolution.
Also a case of a lot of people making the decision based on reviews, with quite a few publications based over US and using the different version of the SoC. So without even realising it, they may base a decision on product that may not be quite the same and not provide the given performance and battery endurance.
I'm not sure, what's so incoherent and beyond the point of being mental in that, particularly when it comes to what is top of the line flagship product at a very high premium?
