Comparison review

Even being the best in this review, the Galaxy Note10 is an older, just a bit thicker and somewhat heavier cellphone than iPhone 12 mini. IPhone 12 mini counts with a brighter display than Galaxy Note10, because although it has a little bit smaller screen, it also counts with a little greater display pixel density and a little higher 1080 x 2340 resolution.
IPhone 12 mini has a better processing unit than Samsung Galaxy Note10, because although it has an inferior number of cores (but faster) and 4 GB lesser RAM, it also counts with a 64-bit processor. Samsung Galaxy Note10 has a slightly better camera than Apple iPhone 12 mini, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition, a back-facing camera with a 12 megapixels resolution and the same video frame rate, the Samsung Galaxy Note10 also has a larger camera aperture to capture better photos and video in low light environments.
