But admitting actuality so new, abounding would altercate that the latest and greatest iPhone is already years abaft the Samsung Galaxy ambit in tech.
Here are bristles affidavit Apple is arena catchup:

Of course, the OLED affectation in the iPhone X trumps that old affair but it still doesn't appear abutting to animadversion off the Galaxy S8 range. iPhone X has a pixel anatomy of 458ppi, which is impressive. But the Galaxy S8, which has the aforementioned admeasurement 5.8-inch screen, clocks in at 571ppi. That's a lot added clarity.
And if you're still on the fence, aloof bethink who makes Apple's OLED screens. That's right, Samsung.
2. Wireless charging
When Apple appear wireless charging for the iPhone 8, 8 Plus and X, Samsung users charge acquire been abrading their heads. The South Korean tech behemothic included wireless charging as accepted in its Galaxy S6 range, which debuted in 2015.
Not to say it's not a acceptable accession to Apple's ambit but the tech abaft Qi charging isn't absolutely groundbreaking.
3. Bezel-less display
You acquire to duke it to Apple on this one, the iPhone X affectation has almost annihilation but screen. Don't bother accusatory about the notch, we all apperceive it has to be there to abode components.
But for all the iPhone X's glory, Samsung afresh exhausted it. When the Galaxy S8 launched beforehand this year, it was accompanied by the tagline "unbox your phone" (along with some abundant viral marketing). And, damn, did it wow the apple with automated design.
Although it's not absolutely as bezel-free as the iPhone X, abounding would altercate it looks a hell of a lot better.

But lo and behold, the little 3.5mm anchorage has remained on the Galaxy ambit in 2017. Even afterwards Apple and Google said the jack bare to go for waterproofing, Samsung still manages to backpack it central the body.
And aloof as a ancillary note, baptize attrition (IP67) was included on the Samsung Galaxy S5 all the way aback in 2014. And yes, that buzz had a headphone jack.
One added thing, it's a abashment Apple hasn't switched the lighting anchorage to a USB-C port. It already absolutely committed to the move on Macbooks, so why didn't it for the iPhone? Samsung and Google are on board.
5. The home button
No, the Samsung Galaxy phones no best acquire a home button. But they do acquire a agenda one.
Apple has accomplished into barter for years the accent of a home button. So, what, now we're aloof meant to acquire it wasn't absolutely that needed? The new bash action works able-bodied (after some accepting acclimated to), but it does beg the catechism why Apple couldn't accommodate a agenda adaptation on screen.
Click it and it curtains you aback like on the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus. Seems appealing straightforward.
