Compared! iPhone 11 VS Galaxy S10e -- Which is the Better Budget Flagship Smartphone? By AppleInsider

Let's compare the new iPhone 11 in that the Samsung Galaxy S 10 II, hey everyone. It is Andrew here from Apple Insider. Today we are going to be going more in depth with both the iPhone 11 and the Samsung Galaxy s.10 II. Both of these are essentially the most affordable options in the flagship lineup for the respective manufacturers. So we're going to compare these head-to-head and see which one kind of comes out on top. Let's go ahead and dig into the details.

First up, let's take a look at the displays and the size of each phone, so the iPhone 11 has a 6.1 inch display. It fits in the middle between the iPhone 11 Pro and the 11pro Max, whereas the Galaxy S 10 II is smaller, with only a five-point 8-inch display, Apple and Samsung used different displays on their phones and not just because of the size. The iPhone is using that liquid Retina display with the rounded corners, but it's still an LCD, whereas here over on the galaxy s, 10 II they're, actually using an AMOLED panel instead, so you're going to get far deeper blacks and more contrast on the Samsung Display. Then you are on the iPhone looking at them side-by-side. There is definitely a difference.

The iPhone doesn't look bad at all. The colors are still outstanding for an LCD panel, but you're just never going to get those deep blacks, like you do with the iPad item pro or 11 pro max or the galaxy s 10 line. You also notice a difference as far as pixel density goes the Samsung, S, 10 II is far higher, with 465 TPI against Apple's 324. That is a pretty big difference in pixel density, normally looking at that as 10 versus the 11 pros, there's not a huge difference, but between the iPhone 11 and the vs 10 II there's definitely a difference when you're. Looking at certain images, you can definitely see the difference.

Looking in the reading text, it's just not quite as high resolution or as intense as it is over. Here on vs 10 inches before we move on and talk about performance, which trust me, you guys definitely want to see. Let's talk about this video sponsor could debate so Qaddafi makes smartphone cases and with the iPhones, just launching there's no better time to dive into this. This is their sheath case, it's very thin, but it offers a lot of drop protection same time. Another proprietary shock, leg material and offers two meters or 6.6 feet of drop protection in this thin design. Their whole thing is making this thin and minimal aesthetic with offering that good at drop protection at the same time, has a nice micro textured outside for some added grip, and we have their synthesis case, which is their most rugged case out there, and it offers two materials.

It has a polycarbonate back and a shock laid around the edges. So you have that added drop protection here on the outside makes a little angle to accent around where the camera lenses are. It has extra bumps around the chorus which should give you a little more protection on those corner Falls, and they have these precision cut ridges along the edges for added grip. So you just don't drop it in the first place. If you want to check out either these case or any other in Medal Bay's loud, you can find information at the link down below in the description.

Now, let's go ahead and move on the next aspect to dive into would be the cameras. There's the front facing cameras, as well as the rear facing cameras on the front of the phone Apple does have the edge of the 12 megapixel sensor on the iPhone 11, where the Samsung Galaxy S 10 II only has a 10 megapixel camera more, so the s10 II only has one camera up there, whereas the iPhone has the true depth camera system and a lot more options there. Because of that single camera, you don't have a depth camera there, so it does do kind of those live. Focused portrait style photos, but they're not nearly as good, and they're all doing it through software, whereas on the iPhone and the higher-end Galaxy S 10 plus, you do have those depth cameras that can capture a much better image, turning them over to the rear cameras, the iPhone and the galaxy s2 II both have two cameras here on the back. They each have a wide-angle lens and an ultra wide-angle lens.

The iPhone 11 is 12 megapixels for both, but the s10 II does bump up the resolution on the ultra-wide. But, as we mentioned in our previous camera, comparisons going from the 12 megapixels, the 16 megapixels on those ultra-wide lenses doesn't really make that much difference day-to-day because you're going to zoom in to actually see that difference. You might as well have shot on the wide-angle to begin with and got a markedly better picture all around. We also have to give the iPhone the edge here just because of the night mode support, so there is night mode on the latest updates to the galaxy line. But when you compare to the night mode on the iPhones, it is very, very different.

We've also been playing around with the beta of a deep fusion over on our iPhone 11 Pro Max, and you to get a lot more detailed and textured shots. That's going to be another enhancement coming into the iPhone 11 versus the Galaxy S 10 e. So as far as the camera scale, the iPhones definitely have the win. Turning view security, both phones have facial recognition to unlock them, though Apple is definitely a more secure face. I'd has the edge absolutely over the facial recognition over on the s10 II, primarily due to the true dev camera system, which again captures depth data, so it actually captures like a full 3d shot of your face, even watches for your ID movements to kind of unlock your phone wears on the s10 II, it's capturing with just one camera a static photo of your face and compared it each time it has been easily fooled with even just a video of the owner of the phone held up to the camera, and it's been able to unlock them.

So the facial recognition on this is gotten better over time, but it's still nowhere near as secure as face ideas on the iPhone 11. They do back that up there with an ultrasonic in screen, a fingerprint reader which gives you additional biometric security, get in your phone besides just a passcode, but it's who has been fooled with easily 3d printed fingerprints. So there's still some issues here with security on these phones, but having a 3d fingerprint handy is not all that likely and the security level should be good for most users on either phone. But if you're looking for the most secure you're going to have to lean towards the iPhone and either just use a passcode on you at the phone either phone that you choose okay, so now, let's go ahead and dive into performance, which I think is what most people are excited to hear about. So both of these phones are powerful.

There's no doubt about it. These are powerful phones. They each have really capable processes in there. There's a Snapdragon 805 processor in the galaxy s, 10 e is a beast of a chip with eight cores and six gigs of ram and over that iPhone Apple has its own in-house design, a 13 Bionic ship, which is only six cores, and it only has four gigs of RAM. But you wouldn't know that from our testing.

So we went into our usual kind of gamut of tests, starting with Geek bench v in key pins 5 to s 10 here in 721, single and 2417 multicore scores that was compared to the 13 35 and 34 290 that the iPhone 11 scored, there's a huge difference on his double in that single core score between the two and the only reason the multi-core was closer was because there's eight in here and only six in here and still the iPhone 11 collaborate, the s10 II. Moving on, we ran the an tutu multi hiking, a test which runs a bunch of difference. Has it taken you a long, long benchmark to perform here's a lot of result, and then it combines them all into eight single total scores on the in to benchmark the iPhone 11 manage a cumulative four hundred, thirty thousand 160 a huge boost over the three hundred. Fifty-five thousand two hundred fifty-one at the STN II scored the iPhone 11 had the biggest gains in GPU when we compared those scores side-by-side. Lastly, we took to the browser for the speedometer test.

Now this benchmark org benchmark, really kind of test web applications in the browser, so a lot of what we do, even if you don't think of it as a web, app kind of qualifies as a web, app with just anything that you do in the browser really other than just reading. So we really want to test this out because it can make a big difference day to day and what you're actually doing on their phones. So we ran this benchmark, and it gives us some good impressions on how this does between both devices, the galaxy s, 10 e, earned a pretty solid. Fifty-five point eight runs per minute, but when we ran the iPhone, it eclipsed that score with a massive 153 runs per minute, so we have almost three times that web app performance over on the iPhone compared to vast any. Needless to say, the iPhone 11 was far faster day-to-day than the s 10 e.

Now, for what it's worth, we did notice those differences when we held them side-by-side, it's faster to restart the phone and faster to launch a bastard open the camera faster to unlock with facial recognition. All these things work faster over on the iPhone, but you only notice them when you're from the side-by-side they're still speedy either way. This is 2019, nothing is particularly slow, so there is a speed difference, but we're not sure how much even notice it now, but it could play into the longevity of the device and how it holds up over time. A lot of this has to do with Apple designing its own chip. Sets that you're designing at a 13 Bionic in-house they're, not buying it off the shelf and just slapping it on their phones, they're, designing us or the can get the most out of that silicon and really just making it the most efficient chip for their phones as they can, instead of just buying something off the shelf and trying to tailor their software to match the chip so which device do you choose? Do you choose the iPhone 11 or the Samsung Galaxy S 10 II? If we're just looking at the specs, the iPhone wins in a few categories and the galaxy wins in a few categories.

Absolutely galaxy wins as far as the screen goes. The screen here is gorgeous, it is vivid, is powerful. It has great contrast. The OLED display it's really nice, and the pixel density is definitely higher. The liquid Retina display is by is no slouch by any means, but does have larger bezels and is an LCD rather than OLED panel, but the iPhone also wins when it comes to security and the easily wins when it comes to performance, and we even gave it the edge with cameras, because the night mode photos are so much better on the iPhone line, then on the s10 II.

So if we're looking at just specs, we do give the edge to the iPhone, but the specs are never the whole picture. It's a nice story, but it's not the whole story. There are so many ineffable qualities that you can't put your fingers on between the two of these. Maybe just prefer Android. Maybe you prefer the more powerful device and the smell our passions.

You don't have to pay for the iPhone 11 Pro to get that. There are a lot of reasons that you would choose this one or this one or this one over this one. It's simply just going to be the case, and we're never going to judge anyone by which phone that they prefer.
