Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus vs iPhone XS Max

- Now that the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus is officialhow does it compare to the flagship from Apple?Whats up guys, Saf here on SuperSaf TVand lets find out SuperSaf style.So initially looking at the sizesboth devices are pretty large but I would saythat the S10 Plus is slightly more compact,its not as wide as the iPhone Xs Maxand it also weighs quite a bit lesscompared to new Xs Max, around 50 grams.Now this is partly becauseit has a slightly smaller display,6.4 inches versus 6.5 inches on the Xs Max.Both devices have minimal bezels,maximizing that screen to body ratio.On the Xs Max however you do have a notch,and on the S10 Plus you have a punch outfor the front-facing cameras.Now neither is a perfect solution for a bezel-less displaybut I think its going to come down to your personal preferencewhat you prefer, the notch or the punch out.Definitely let me know in the comments below.In terms of the display technologieswe have OLED for both devicesand these are some of the best mobile displayson the market right now.Weve got sharp detail, vibrant colors,great viewing angles, and I dont think you can go wrongwith either of these displays.Samsung have now said that the S10 Plusis the first mobile display to support HDR 10 Plusand it does look absolutely stunningbut one thing that you get on the Xs Maxwhich you dont get on the S10 Plus is 3D touch.So this is a pressure sensitive display,it allows you to push down harder on certain apps and thingsand get more options.Now moving on to the build and design,both devices are very premium and both are alsoIP68 water and dust resistant which is great.The iPhone Xs Max has a stainless steel framewith glass panels on the front and back,the S10 Plus has a aluminium or aluminum framewith curved glass panels on the front and backso it is curved towards the edges, looks pretty cool.However the S10 Plus is also availablein a couple of ceramic options,ceramic black and ceramic white.These look and feel very premiumand theyre also going to bea little bit more durable compared to glass.The S10 Plus does come in a variety of other colors as well,weve got prism white, prism black,prism green, as well as prism blue.The iPhone Xs Max doesnt come in as many colors,youve got space gray, silver, and gold and thats itso the advantage of she does go to the S10 Plus.However if you do want a customized lookof either of these devices Id recommend picking up a skinfrom our channel sponsor, dbrand.Theyve got a huge selection for both the iPhone Xs Maxas well as the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus.Im going to be leaving a link to them in the description belowso do go ahead and check them out.Now moving on to the internals, the iPhone Xs Maxhas the Apple A12 Bionic chip, its super fast and snappy,one of the fastest out there right now.The S10 Plus comes with theQualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor or Samsungs Exynos 9820.Which one of these you getwill vary depending on your region but both of theseare some of the fastest processors out thereand I dont think you can go wrong with eitherthe iPhone or the S10 Pluswhen it comes to speed and performance,these are going to be some of the fastest devices out there.If however you do want me to doa side-by-side speed test between these twothen definitely let me know in the comments below.A lot of the speed will also depend on the operating systemsand we do have iOS on the iPhone and weve got Android Piewith Samsungs new OneUI on the S10 Plus.I quite like OneUI, very smooth and snappy,but I also really like iOS so Im in between these twoand I always have an iPhone with meas well as an Android device.Of course which one you likeis going to come down to your personal preference.In terms of RAM and storage the iPhone Xs Maxcomes with 4 gigabytes of RAM across the boardand it has three different storage options, 64, 256,as well as 512 gigabytes all at different prices.The S10 Plus comes with a base of eight gigabytes of RAMand 128 gigabytes of storage,however if you do go for one of these ceramic optionsyou can get 512 gigabytes of storageor the the top of the line has one terabyte of storagewith 12 gigabytes of RAM, that is absolutely insane.Im not sure how much of an impactthis is going to have on performancebut its crazy to think that we can have 12 gigabytes of RAMon one terabyte of storage on a smart phone.In addition to that you do have expandable memoryon the S10 Plus so you can get your micro SD card slotand expand your storage by up to another 512 gigabytesso when it comes to storageI would have to give the edge to the S10 Plus.Now lets move on to my favorite part, the cameras.The iPhone Xs Max has a dual camera setup,both are 12 megapixels with optical image stabilization.They are some of the best cameras out there,Ive really enjoyed using them.The primary camera has an F 1.8 apertureand the secondary camera is going to give youtwo times optical zoom that has an F 2.4 aperture.My favorite thing about the iPhone camerashas been Smart HDR,it gets amazing dynamic range in all situations.However when it comes to low-lightI do think the iPhone can improve.The S10 Plus comes with a triple rear facing camera setupso the primary camera actually has a variable aperture,F 1.5 which is great for low-lightbut also F 2.4 depending on the light in your scene.The telephoto camera is very similar to the iPhone Xs Maxso youve got two times optical zoom with an F 2.4 aperturewith optical image stabilization.But this year Samsung have also introducedan ultra-wide camera, this is 16 megapixelsand its going to be great to get more into your shot.Im a huge huge fan of ultra-wide camerasand Im really looking forward to spending more timewith the S10 Plus camera.Now which one of these is better between these two,of course were going to have to doa SuperSaf style camera comparisonand if you want to see thatthen definitely smash that like button to let me know.Now moving on to video, both devices do support 4Kat up to 60 frames a second which is great.And for the front-facing cameras the iPhone has 7 megapixelswith an F 2.2 aperture,its a really good front-facing camerahowever, once again, low-light not so great.The Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus has two front facing cameras,the primary camera is 10 megapixels with an F 1.9 apertureand it also has the dual pixel auto focusthat weve got on the rear facing cameraso this should be pretty cool in terms of getting focusalso from the front-facing camera.And in addition to that you also have an 8 megapixelsecondary camera which is going to helpwith depth information so it should helpwith the portrait selfies that you can take.The iPhone also takes some great portrait selfies.Of course were going to have to put these side-by-sideto find out which one of these is better.But one thing that the S10 haswhich Im pretty sure no other smartphone has right nowis 4K UHD video recording from the front-facing camera.This is pretty new, Im pretty sure,Ive not seen it on another device,and if youre somebody who likes to usea front-facing camera a lot and maybe vlogsthen this is going to be a great addition for you.With the iPhone Xs Max it does max out at 1080p.Moving on to the audio department,both devices have stereo speaker which is great,one is in the earpiece on one is button firing.The S10 Plus however has a 3.5 mm jack,Samsung have still included this which is greatfor a lot of people I know.The iPhone Xs Max of course does not have thisand Apple have not had a 3.5 mm jack for quite some time nowso its something that we werent really expectingwith the iPhone Xs Maxso this advantage does go to the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus.And in terms of the other additional features,the iPhone Xs Max does come with Face ID,its really accurate, really fast, very secure.the S10 Plus does have 2D facial recognitionwhich is not as secure however it does havean ultrasonic in display fingerprint sensor.Now this is one of the first deviceswith an ultrasonic fingerprint sensorand this is a lot more advancedcompared to the optical solutions that we had previously.And in my initial testing it has worked really well.If you want to see a detailed comparisonbetween Face ID and the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor,once again, definitely let me know in the comments below,Ill be trying to prioritizewhich comparisons you guys want to see moston getting through them as soon as I can.The S10 Plus also has a heart rate sensoras well as Wi-Fi 6.Wi-Fi six is 20% faster compared to what we have right now.These are some of the new featuresthat Samsung has included.And moving on to the batteries, the iPhone Xs Maxhas a 3176 mAh battery,the S10 Plus has a larger 4100 mAh battery.Now usage obviously varies and size doesnt always matter,thats what she said, Im sorry, Im sorry,I really need to grow up, but of courseusage will vary from person to person.The iPhone Xs Max has been pretty good for mein terms of battery life,it usually does get me through the day.Itll be interesting to see how wellthe S10 Plus performs in comparison.And both devices do support fast charging,however the fast charging does not come out of the boxof the iPhone Xs Max.This is something that Ive ranted about before,it should definitely come out of the boxwith the iPhone Xs Max but its not included,you do have to buy that separately.With the S10 plus you will geta fast charger out of the box.both devices also support wireless chargingwhich is really useful,however the S10 Plus supports fast wireless charging 2.0so this is much faster compared to previous generationand it will be much faster compared to the iPhone Xs Max.And it doesnt stop there, the S10 Plusalso has wireless power share.This is reverse wireless charging,so you can actually use your S10 Plusto also charge the the iPhone Xs Max.You can charge pretty much any deviceby just placing it on the back as well as some accessorieslike the Galaxy earbuds or the Galaxy watch.Finally looking at the price, the S10 Plusdoes come in quite a bit cheapercompared to the iPhone Xs max in the UK, anyway,around 900 pounds is the starting pricefor the base 128 gigabyte model.The iPhone Xs Max starts at 1100 poundsand that is for half the storage, 64 gigabytes.So when it comes to value for money, bang for buck,you are getting more on the S10 Pluscompared to the iPhone Xs Max.However, of course it is going to come downto your personal preference,I really do like the iPhone Xs Maxand in my opinion it is the best iPhoneyou can buy right nowand if you are within that ecosystemit might be the best option for you.However, if you are on the Android sidethe S10 Plus looks like a very, very promising devicewith a lot of features, lots of boxes ticked offfor a lot of people.Pre-orders start todayand it is going to be shipping out from the 8th of March.Ill try to leave a link in the description belowif youre interested in picking one of these up.What do you think of both of these devicesand which one would you go for?Definitely drop me a comment below and let me know.I hope you enjoyed this video and found it useful.If you did then do hit that thumbs up man for meand if you
