iPhone 8 Plus vs. Galaxy Note 8: Samsung brings the fight to Apple

The Note series also continues to push Samsung’s software in exciting ways. With the S Pen, users can instantly translate words and sentences, while the Note 8’s large 6.3-inch display is fantastic for launching two apps at once. With smart features like that, it’s easy to see why the Note 8 is such a powerhouse.

The iPhone 8 Plus holds its own in other areas, like usability and camera. And while iOS 11 isn’t nearly as versatile as Samsung’s take on Android, it’s still buttery smooth and exhibits excellent app performance, which remains an underrated part of the iPhone’s arsenal.

Apple’s device also features things like iMessage, Apple Pay, wireless charging, a beautiful all-glass design, and a fingerprint sensor that’s convenient to use. To be fair, the Note 8 matches Apple Pay with Samsung Pay, and it has wireless charging, too.

To a neutral, the Note 8 is the superior device because of its more elegant design, powerful set of features, and S Pen. But remember that the Galaxy Note 8 is nearly $1,000, while the iPhone 8 Plus starts at $799. Perhaps the more apt comparison would be to pit the Note 8 against Apple’s iPhone X, which is launching on November 3.
