Comparison review
The Apple iPhone X is slightly better than Galaxy S5, having a general score of 88.1 against 80.8. Even though the Apple iPhone X is heavier than Galaxy S5, it's just a little bit thinner and extremely newer. The iPhone X counts with a bit superior processing unit than Samsung Galaxy S5, because although it has doesn't have an extra GPU, and they both have a 3 GB RAM memory, the iPhone X also counts with a 64-bit processor and a greater number of cores (although slower).
The Galaxy S5 counts with a little more vivid screen than Apple iPhone X, because although it has a quite lower 1920 x 1080 resolution and a bit smaller display, it also counts with a little more pixels per inch of screen. The iPhone X shoots clearer photographs and videos than Samsung Galaxy S5, because although it has a tinier sensor which provides a worse photo and video quality, a back camera with a lot worse resolution and a lower (4K) video quality, it also counts with a larger camera aperture to capture better low-light images and videos.
IPhone X features a much greater memory to install applications and games than Samsung Galaxy S5, because although it has no external memory card slot, it also counts with more internal memory. The Samsung Galaxy S5 has just a bit longer battery lifetime than iPhone X, because it has 2800mAh of battery capacity against 2716mAh.
Although iPhone X is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Galaxy S5, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Galaxy S5. So if you need that extra features and specs, you can buy iPhone X, otherwise you can save some money and get the Galaxy S5, letting go some features and specifications.
