Comparison review
IPhone 7 Plus is just a bit better than the Samsung Galaxy A50, getting an 83.8 score against 83.8. IPhone 7 Plus is a incredibly older and heavier phone than Samsung Galaxy A50, but Apple was able to make it a bit thinner anyway.

IPhone 7 Plus features a little more vivid screen than Samsung Galaxy A50, although it has a little bit less pixels per inch in the display, a bit worse resolution of 1080 x 1920px and a little bit smaller screen. The Samsung Galaxy A50 features slightly more storage capacity to install applications and games than iPhone 7 Plus, because although it has only 128 GB internal memory capacity, it also counts with a SD memory card expansion slot that holds a maximum of 512 GB.
The Galaxy A50 features a really longer battery duration than iPhone 7 Plus, because it has 4000mAh of battery capacity. Galaxy A50 has a little bit better camera than Apple iPhone 7 Plus, and although they both have the same video quality and the same 30 frames per second video frame rate, the Galaxy A50 also has a larger aperture for better images and video in poorly lited situations, a bigger sensor providing a better image quality and a lot better resolution back camera.
Although iPhone 7 Plus is a better device, it costs a lot more than Samsung Galaxy A50, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as Samsung Galaxy A50. If you are trying to save some money, you can get Samsung Galaxy A50, giving up a couple features and specs, but you will get the most with your budget.
