And both phone models have pros and cons.

1. iPhone Or Samsung - The Choice Is
Yours
In an increasingly technological world, it's easy to get confused when choosing
between an iPhone or a Samsung phone. Both companies are continuously
'upgrading' their technology, which makes it challenging to keep up with the latest
features and benefits of owning one brand of phone over the other. And both phone
models have pros and cons.
In this article we will compare technical and public perception differences between
iPhone and Samsung. There are many features in an iPhone that a Samsung does
not have, and vice-versa. Here's a quick comparison of some of the top features
unique to each phone model:
Comparing Features
Downloading Apps
Downloading an app is similar for both iPhone and Samsung. An iPhone has the App
Store whereas, Samsung has the Play Store. Almost all of the apps are available on
both of the stores and it is very easy to access both of the stores and to purchase
any app like: Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.

2. Operating System
Apple / iPhone has their own iOS as their unique operating system to run their
phones whereas, Samsung uses the Android platform as their operating system.
Camera
Some reviews have suggested that the iPhone camera is generally is better than
Samsung because of the clarity and specially the originality of the natural colours
that are more equivalent to real life - but it comes down to model to model
comparison.
Storage
Samsung makes it very easy to add additional storage it their phones - it is as simple
as adding a memory card. You can purchase a memory card of the desired memory
size needed and then simply insert it into the phone to increase the storage.
Whereas, in iPhones there is a minimum storage capacity with each phone, but you
can purchase additional storage access through iCloud is the free 5GB is not
enough.
Backups
An iPhone can be backed up to an iCloud account, whereas, a Samsung phone can
be backed up on a Google account, or you can transfer the data of either phone to a
computer.
Security
Both companies have improved their security systems by adding in different types of
security locks. Initially phone locks started as a slide to unlock (no security) to then a
number lock or sequence lock - and now phones are being released with more
advanced security, such as: fingerprint scanner, iris scanning (Samsung), and face
recognition (for iPhones).
Music / Media Sources
It is very easy to download songs onto a Samsung phone, you can simply search the
songs and download them into the music app, whereas, for iPhones you have to pay
to use the Apple Music or iTunes or you have to download some other music app to
download your music/media into.
Accessories
iPhones can be synched to an Apple Watch which can operate most of the features
on the Watch itself, which allows you to not have to use your phone for basic tasks
like taking a phone call or sending a text message. Samsung has Samsung Gear,
which offers similar conveniences to Watch, to help users focus on the activity they
are performing without their phone interfering.

3. Battery Backups
Both Apple and Samsung offer battery backups. Both companies have installed a
battery backup in their phones which helps to save from overuse of the battery and
to maximize the life of the battery.
Technical point-of-view
Repair Prices
Usually iPhone repairs are cheaper as compared to Samsung phone repairs. The
average price for an iPhone repair varies from $39-$450 depending upon the part
that needs to be replaced and how long it takes to repair the phone, whereas, the
price for a Samsung repair vary from $35-$699 depending upon the repair and upon
the labour time.
Repair Time
iPhones take less time to repair on average, as compared to Samsung phones.
iPhones are considered easier to repair, whereas, Samsungs are considered more
difficult to repair, and can take a longer time to repair.
Repair Techniques
Almost every iPhone has a similar technique to repair it, whereas, Samsung phone’s
repairs are different depending upon the series and the model of the phone. Every
technician has their own methods of repairing phones depending upon a similar
methodology, but it is very important to process the repair carefully and with all the
precautions, so that it does not harm the technician or the phone.
It can be very difficult or impossible to unlock an iCloud locked phone, if you forget
your iCloud account password or have lost access. A Google or Android unlock can
more easily be done using a Samsung unlocking app.
