Galaxy A15 5G has a screen that is very similar to the iPhone 8 Plus one, because although the Galaxy A15 5G has a little bit inferior count of pixels per display inch, it also counts with a bit higher resolution of 1080 x 2340, a bigger display and a brighter display. The Samsung Galaxy A15 5G features a bit better camera than iPhone 8 Plus, because although it has lower 30 fps video frame rates, and they both have a same size diafragm aperture and the same 1920x1080 video definition, the Samsung Galaxy A15 5G also counts with a lot more MP back camera.
The Galaxy A15 5G counts with more storage for apps and games than iPhone 8 Plus, because although it has only 128 GB internal storage capacity, it also counts with a SD memory slot that admits a maximum of 1000 GB.

Although Apple iPhone 8 Plus is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than Galaxy A15 5G, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy A15 5G. So if you need that extra specs and features, you can buy the Apple iPhone 8 Plus, otherwise you can save some dollars and get the Galaxy A15 5G, letting go some specs and features.
