Comparison review
IPhone X has an overall score of 88.1, which is better than the Galaxy S7's overall score of 79.5. Even though the iPhone X is heavier than Galaxy S7, it's just a little thinner and also newer. IPhone X features a faster processing unit than Galaxy S7, because although it has a lower amount of RAM memory, it also counts with a 64 bits CPU and a higher number of cores (and also faster).
Galaxy S7 counts with a bit better display than Apple iPhone X, because although it has a little smaller screen, it also counts with a little higher amount of pixels in each inch in the screen, a quite better 1440 x 2560 resolution and a brighter screen. The Apple iPhone X features a slightly better camera than Galaxy S7, because although it has a tinier aperture which is worse for capturing images and video in low light situations and a tinier sensor capturing lower quality pictures and videos, and they both have a 12 mega-pixels resolution back camera and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video quality, the Apple iPhone X also counts with faster 60 frames per second video frame rates.
The iPhone X features a way bigger memory capacity to install games and applications than Samsung Galaxy S7, because although it has no SD card slot, it also counts with 224 GB more internal storage. Samsung Galaxy S7 features just a bit longer battery lifetime than iPhone X, because it has a 10 percent bigger battery capacity.
Although Apple iPhone X is a better device, it is way more expensive than the Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy S7. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the Apple iPhone X, else you can save a couple dollars and get the Galaxy S7, letting go a couple specifications.
