Comparison review
IPhone XS Max has a general score of 84.5, which is a bit better than Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro's 81 overall score. The iPhone XS Max body is incredibly thinner and just a little lighter than Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, although it was released about a year before. Apple iPhone XS Max has a little sharper screen than Galaxy XCover Pro, because it has a bit higher screen pixels density, a slightly higher resolution of 1242 x 2688px and a quite bigger screen.
The Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro has a very superior storage to store more apps and games than Apple iPhone XS Max, and although they both have exactly the same 64 GB internal memory capacity, the Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro also has a slot for an external memory card that admits a maximum of 512 GB. Apple iPhone XS Max counts with a quite better processing power than Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, because although it has 2 lesser cores (although they are faster), and they both have the same RAM amount, the Apple iPhone XS Max also counts with a 64-bit processing unit.
Apple iPhone XS Max captures just a bit better pictures and videos than Galaxy XCover Pro, because although it has a camera in the back with a lot lower resolution and a tinier diafragm aperture which is not good for shooting photographs and/or video in low-light situations, it also counts with a way higher 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution and a way larger sensor providing a much higher image quality.
The Galaxy XCover Pro counts with better battery life than Apple iPhone XS Max, because it has a 4050mAh battery capacity instead of 3179mAh.
Although iPhone XS Max is a better device, it costs a lot more than Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro. So if you need that extra features and specs, you can buy iPhone XS Max, else you can save some dollars and get the Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, letting go some features and specifications.
