The iPhone XR has a little bit better camera than Samsung Galaxy S7, because although it has a tinier aperture which is worse for capturing images or videos in low light environments and a smaller camera sensor offering a worse image quality, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition and a back-facing camera with a 12 mega-pixels resolution, the iPhone XR also counts with better video frame rate.
Galaxy S7's battery performance is just as good as the Apple iPhone XR one, although the Galaxy S7 also has a 2 percent greater battery size.
Although Apple iPhone XR is a better device, it costs a lot more than Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Galaxy S7. If you prefer to save some dollars, you can buy Galaxy S7, letting go a few features and specifications, but you will get the most with your budget.
