iPhone X vs Samsung Galaxy S8

I am planning to buy a new phone and I'm pretty confused to purchase between these two giant brands. Both of these companies manufacture amazing phones and the competition in the global phone market is pretty high in today's age and time. I am going to compare specification and value for money between these two phones.

The iPhone X

iPhone X

The iPhone X was recently released this early November catching a lot of attention. The phone looks are to die for and many new specs were instill in this phone. The specs are listed below:

Samsung Galaxy S8

The Samsung Galaxy S8 was released close to a tear ago and is still one hack of a good phone. The specs are still to the current generation.

Screen:               5.8 inch Suoer AMOLED display

Display:              2960x1440 (570ppi)

Aspect ratio:       18.5:9

Rear Camera:     12MP, f/1.7 OIS

Front Camera:    8MP. f/f.7

Chipset:              Qualcomm Snapdragon 835

RAM:                 4GB

Storage:              64/256GB

Battery:              3000mAH

Waterproof:        IP 68

Fingerprint:        Yes

scanner

Face scanner:     Yes

Headphone:        Yes

jack

Data port:          USB

Wireless:           Yes

charging

Weight:             155g

From what I notice, even though the Samsung Galaxy S8 is launced way earlier but her specs are still much better com[pared to the iPhone X. In specs department I would reckon getting the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Value for money

These both phones come at a hefty price. The iPhone X costing around RM 5899 for its lowest model and the Samsung Galaxy only costing around RM 2899 for its lowest model. As we can see here the clear winner is the Samsung Galaxy S8, its almost half the price of the iPhone X. So I am going to stick with buying the Samsung Galaxy S8.
