Comparison review
The iPhone XS has a score of 84.2, which is a bit better than Samsung Galaxy S5's 80.8 score. The iPhone XS body is newer and just a little bit thinner than the Samsung Galaxy S5's, although it is also heavier. The iPhone XS counts with a little better processing power than Samsung Galaxy S5, because although it has doesn't have a GPU, it also counts with a 64-bit processing unit, a higher amount of RAM memory and more CPU cores (although slower).
The Samsung Galaxy S5 features a little more vivid screen than Apple iPhone XS, because although it has a little smaller screen and a bit lower 1920 x 1080 resolution, it also counts with a little bit more pixels per screen inch. The iPhone XS shoots a bit better videos and photos than Galaxy S5, because although it has a lower video quality and a camera in the back with much less mega-pixels resolution, it also counts with a larger aperture to take better captures and videos in poorly lited environments and a larger sensor.
The Galaxy S5 features a bit bigger memory capacity for applications and games than iPhone XS, because although it has just 32 GB internal memory capacity, it also counts with a SD extension slot that allows up to 128 GB. Galaxy S5 features just a bit longer battery life than iPhone XS, because it has a 5 percent bigger battery capacity.
Although Apple iPhone XS is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Galaxy S5, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy S5. So if you want that extra specs, you can buy Apple iPhone XS, else you can save some money and get the Galaxy S5, resigning a couple specs and features.
