Samsung already made the iPhone 8 we want

Granted, I’m making assumptions based on rumors, and it sounds like Apple will have plenty of software tricks that we don’t know about. At the moment, however, the device doesn’t sound a whole lot different from the Galaxy S8.

It’s been a cat and mouse game between Samsung and Apple for years, with the Korean company typically playing second fiddle to the iPhone. But the past few years have shown that Samsung has hit its stride by introducing (and perfecting) new innovations—and the Galaxy S8 is a prime example.

It’s a forgone conclusion the iPhone 8 will be a hit, and Apple will no doubt figure out a way to make existing technology even better. Or, at least, convince us that its iteration is better. But, just a week ahead of the phone’s big unveiling, I’m wondering how much innovation it’ll actually bring to the table.

More than ever, it sounds like Apple will rely on the sophistication of iOS as a big differentiator. Even then, Samsung’s take on Android offers a wonderful experience by comparison, so that gap between quality is non-existent.

We’ll see what the iPhone 8 brings to the table in less than a week. At this point, though, it sounds like the Galaxy S8 has been there, done that.
