iPhone 8 vs Samsung Galaxy S8: Sorry Apple..

2018-01-22
iOS versus Android for nearly a decade the rivalry between these two lineups has spun a trend of love and hate that even we have a hard time controlling in the comments surely on one side we have the misunderstood iPhone and on the other we have the galaxy on its way out but the small price tag on one and the deals on the other make this a worthy comparison nonetheless I'm he meant of event with pocket now and this is iPhone 8 vs samsung galaxy s a brought to you by DD brand there was a time when iPhones and Galaxy phones looked so much alike that Samsung got sued and lost to Apple for the similarities who did what first this still a battle we just don't really want to discuss but what's important is that comparisons have gone great lately mainly because of how much things have changed I mean look at them these two phones couldn't look more different even if they tried and if this were a beauty contest the galaxy as a twins this by a longshot it's actually been winning for the last three generations the curve borders on the class the tall aspect ratio and the rounded corners on the display the premium feel all have contributed to a phone that seems like if it were from the future by contrast the iPhone 8 is a complete opposite it follows a design language that's at least four years old and surely does have the return of glass construction that Apple pioneered with the iPhone 4 but the rest of the package meaning the large bezels in the camera humph are all very 2014 now even if these are the smaller variants of their respective lineups the dimensions can be more of a disparity the galaxies new approach to a taller aspect ratio has the Galaxy s8 being 10 millimeters taller one millimeter wider nearly a millimeter thicker and 7 grams heavier than the iPhone 8 this also allows a much taller 5.8 inch display compared to just 4.7 inches more resolution at quad HD capabilities versus 750 P the more modern and saturated colorful AMOLED technology is the more accurate IPS LCD and the infinity display effect on the curved borders that you just won't get on the iPhone and the iPhones favor there's the case where bigger is not necessarily better for content consumption the iPhone sports stereo speakers while the larger galaxy does not for handling purposes I can use the iPhone 8 with one hand and reach all four corners of display where this proves to be a chore with the galaxy s 8 now there are options for reach ability on both devices through software and the final nail in the ergonomics coffin I mean reaching the iPhones fingerprint scanner requires zero effort where on the galaxy s 8 it's always a challenge to not hit the camera lens instead now and the galaxy is the fence this is not the only way you can unlock the galaxy s 8 we've got iris scanning and facial recognition as well though each of these has added limitations that we've discussed in our respective reviews powering each device is a very different set of hardware and I'm not even going to spend time declaring a winner when it comes to specs a really tired of the whole well the iPhone has only got 2 gigs of ram argument because you know what numbers don't really matter in the real world so long as each device can deliver on its advertised promise the differences that are really important are that you're actually getting more for your money when it comes to the galaxy s 8 there's a micro as the expansion to save you on having to pay more for additional storage there's a headphone jack and better headphones bundle in the box and Samsung also includes a fast charger in the box something that combined will cost you more than $70 if you want to buy this for the iPhone you get a wireless charging on both sure but only the Galaxy s8 has fast wireless charging and there's also water resistance on both but the Galaxy has a higher rating another debate that's not worth having as if Android is better than iOS or vice versa by now it's clear that people don't switch for operating systems but really for what the phones can do and more specifically for which one does it better in this regard both devices run their respective operating systems like champs for the most part BSA blazes through its experience UX just as fast and fluid as the iPhone 8 can on iOS both devices are very robust with their ecosystems and play graphics intensive games relatively with ease I pray Samsung's visual aesthetic more given the flexibility of the user interface there's a bevy of options that you can enable or disable at your heart's content where I praised iOS is in the logic of its user interface like seriously control center should be a swipe from the bottom where you can actually reach it easily even if the iPhone 10 just completely kills this and then or I don't praise the Galaxy S a it is that it's currently for software versions behind on Android yes for where there's just not that problem on the iPhone 8 and then where I don't praise Apple is because this homescreen seriously needs to die Apple it's more than ten years old another example where bigger isn't necessarily better is battery life the galaxy s 8 has nearly twice the power pack of the iPhone 8 but believe it or not the only phone that lasted through a day of moderate to heavy uses the iPhone and yes I'm actually also shocked about that one I'm not saying that the SI it has terrible battery life but power saving features are the only way to get to end of day so don't let the numbers fool you now when it comes to photography you're looking at two of my top picks for best all-rounder smartphone cameras and yes I know you're not getting the added functionality of a secondary lens either but both devices sport cameras you can trust just point and shoot at subjects great color saturation contrast in detail with the Galaxy winning and flexibility thanks to manual controls both also take in my opinion some of the best selfies in the industry though when it comes to selfie video I'm glad that Apple finally woke up to offer a better field of view compared to the Galaxy you won't have any complaints when it comes to the video from the primary shooters though with stabilization and color reproduction being strong on both devices to conclude I think it's fair to say that each phone pulls its own weight when it comes to pros and cons the Galaxy s8 is far more beautiful as a device more flexible and hardware and software and with added perks that come with in the box of accessories factoring that the Galaxy s8 is also an older device and you can definitely find better deals for it than with the case of Apple's offering the iPhone 8 on the other hand doesn't have the better looks they'll cost you more money if you want more storage and the same goes for whenever you want more useful accessories it wins basic things like economics future-proof hardware no excuses when it comes to software updates and battery life really has me impressed if it were my money I'd incline more to the galaxy s 8 just because I feel that it's a better deal so this is the one you get if you want to maximize your dollars now for those of you in search of the latest and greatest these two devices might not be what you're looking for on one hand we have the galaxy s 9 just a few weeks away and you also have the iPhone 10 already in the market again these are the better options if you're looking to save a few dollars for great hardware and again with the galaxy s 8 in my opinion being the better deal now assuming that you did pick any of these devices the glass back on either is a fingerprint nightmare the brand skins will help you eliminate those fingerprints and add some grip to your upcoming Galaxy s8 or iPhone 8 for that matter visit the brand comm
