Phone Xs Max vs Samsung Galaxy Note 9 & S9 Plus! #Helpful Post

ey guys it's time for some friendly

competition between the iPhone 10s and

Macs and the Galaxy Note 9 and the s9

Plus these are very similar devices so

I'm mostly lumping them together aside

from a couple little changes here and

there let's go ahead and see which one

excels at what what's been improved on

the iPhone 10's max that the galaxies

have had for a while just how they

compare now and that app was released

this huge beast so everything you need

to know regarding these if you want to

switch from one or another or upgrade

you'll find in this video but it didn't

want to mention that competition is

definitely a good thing I love that

Samsung pushes the envelope they keep

innovating adding new features that even

Apple copies from them once in a while

and vice versa so let's see how these

compare all right let's start with

materials so aluminium 7000 on the

galaxies with their Gorilla Glass 5 on

the front and back Apple says that their

glass is the most durable ever in a

smartphone and we'll definitely have to

test that out but it does have a

stainless steel border it comes in three

finishes silver gold and of course Space

Gray this one meanwhile also does come

in three finishes here in America but

you can get a gold

additionally elsewhere the other colors

are blue purple and black I hear

something I certainly didn't see Apple

doing adding the ip68 water resistance

to the new iPhone 10's max now the note

9 does have the same certification the

s9 plus as well but it's not as good as

Apple's and let me explain why

IP 68 means from 1.5 meters to 2 and

manufacturers can add their own rating

in there as they wish Samsung did add a

1.5 meter rating which is 5 feet Apple

did a 2 meter which is 6.5 feet so this

theoretically should be quite capable in

the water and better than the galaxy Z

and come first so actually using the

iPhone 10 s max it is quite a wide

device you know the specifications are

just a little bit wider it's a little

bit shorter versus the note 9 so just

like this and the displays a little bit

larger though but it is a little bit

wider than the note 9 and I'd say that

the note 9 is generally more comfortable

you can reach more areas of the display

because it's a little bit slimmer I do

like that about its the iPhone 10's max

by no means will be uncomfortable it's

just a little bit wider the note 9 is

the thickest of all at 8.8 millimeters

the u.s. 9 plus is 8 point 5 and the

iPhone tennis match

is 7.7 surprisingly thin for how large

it is and display sizes so this is just

a demo the actual screen will go to the

very bottom on the iPhone 10's max but

everywhere else is correct

and it's gonna be just point 1

millimeters larger than the galaxies for

the first time ever

Apple has one upped Samsung with a

larger display just watch once they

eliminate this bezel the new note 9 or

whatever else they release will be even

larger than this one and it'll be really

really cool-looking but basically you're

trading a notch for a chin and a top

area top bezel so I personally prefer

the 10s max but I know a lot of people

that hate the bezel and prefer more even

design so all the power to you whatever

you like it all comes down to preference

screen sizes are just about the same but

size-wise the iPhone 10's takes the

crown here the max version and the s9

plus of course has that 6.2 inch display

something a little bit smaller here but

the most comfortable device out of all

of them to use and display size is one

thing but quality is an entirely other

thing display may said that the note 9

has the best smartphone display ever

made right now let's see how the iPhone

10s max with its super Retina display

compares with the higher dynamic range

we'll leave that up to the pros at

display mates in terms of resolution the

galaxies do have a higher pixel density

at 516 pixels per inch with a true 1440p

display the iPhone 10s max has a 458

pixel density which isn't bad and you

certainly it's very hard to tell the

difference between them but this one is

definitely sharper and better right now

and the actual screen to body ratio of

the Tenace max is a little bit higher at

80 4.4% the note 9 is just a little bit

behind at 80 3.51 a couple of other

things the iPhone 10's max has 3d touch

which adds a whole nother layer of depth

to your phone which this guy does not

have well not in full capacity anyways

it does have a pressure-sensitive area

down here but not to the same level that

Apple does and the Tenace max has 120

Hertz a display input that means when

drawing just navigating the phone feels

so much more fluid than any other

smartphone that's not a 120 Hertz

refresh rate for the display just the

touch input layer of course the Note

nines main benefits is having the s-pen

so you're able to navigate the display

much more precisely having this on hand

is really really nice so that's a very

big one for the galaxy and cameras so

both are 12 megapixel the Galaxy Note 9s

has a wider aperture so it theoretically

should be able to do better in low

lights but again this is one of those

things you just have to test specs don't

speak everything here all of them have

dual optical image stabilizer two times

optical zoom and all have the selectable

bokeh after you take the photo to change

the focus in the background so Samsung

did be Apple to that but Apple doesn't

more intelligently with the dual lens

system the iPhone tennis max is the only

one to have stereo recording though

during the video and with that a 12

processor they're saying they're getting

improvements across the board video

recording photo you're able to take the

perfect photo now with smart HDR so the

a 12 processor comes into play and again

that test will tell everything but it

could be that the iPhone tennis max has

an edge over the note 9 selfie cameras 7

megapixel on the iPhone and 8 on the

galaxies and the aperture is lower here

as well so should be better in low light

this is capable of 1440p at 30fps this

one is at 1080 at 60 frames per second

so not quite the quality of the galaxy's

advantages of the selfie camera of the

iPhone knows that it does have a full

screen true tone flash that has a custom

display controller to flash the screen

even brighter than the galaxies and it

does have a portrait mode and bokeh

control for the focus on the front

camera as well which is a nice touch and

the actual true tone for LED flash on

the back has received an upgrade 2nd gen

with new slow sync control so security

the iPhone tennis max has 2nd gen face

ID which should be faster but we are

able to tell just yet how they compare

this one does have the fingerprint

sensor facial recognition and iris

recognition so it has many ways you can

get into your phone and most of them are

faster over apples right now that's for

the modem setup this one is still faster

at one point two gigabit versus one

gigabit on the new iPhones and there is

a dual SIM card support on the galaxy's

butts on the iPhone it's an ECM unless

you're in China so it is one physical

SIM and one internal SIM card you have

to get programmed to on certain carrier

as for storage the note 9 has an

advantage here it starts at 128

gigabytes and goes up to 512 and you can

upgrade it to 512 gigabytes using an

external sd card

which of course the iPhone can't compete

with you buy it at base 64 gigabytes

then $150 to 256 and then $200 to 512

gigabytes that's a very expensive

upgrade $450 to get to 512 but a microSD

card is a very cheap upgrade and it

keeps going down in price so this thing

is much easier and cheaper to upgrade

the storage let's get into power so the

Galaxy Note 9 comes standard with 6

gigabytes of RAM s9 plus with four and

the iPhone 10s max with 4 gigabytes and

I've heard that the iPhone tennis max in

the 512 gigabyte variant comes with 8

gigabytes of RAM that's to handle all

that extra memory so I'm not entirely

sure how true that is but I have heard

it round online but if that is true it

would match the eight gigabyte RAM

version of the note 9 from the

International Version that's over the

chips we have a 7 nanometre

first-time-ever apple a 12 chip and this

is a 10 nanometer Snapdragon 845 you

really really can't compare these this

one will blow it away even the Apple a

11 was more powerful than Snapdragon 845

but in any case this is a 6 core chip to

high-end for low-end this is an 8 core

chip and they do have dedicated GPU

graphics apple says the GPU graphics on

this is 50% faster and the actual CPU

should be roughly about 15% faster for

the high-end processes of course I will

do a speed test it'll be a very very

interesting comparison to see how much

of a leap Apple took on Qualcomm

Snapdragon processors as for the

batteries in the charging situation the

galaxies do have the bigger batteries

this one should roughly be between three

thousand to thirty two hundred milliamps

this one is four thousand milliamps and

3,500 on the s9 plus as for charging

this has a 10 watt fast charger

available this is only at 7.5 watts so

this will charge faster the crappy thing

is that the iPhones do not have the fast

charger in the box the galaxies do

although the battery life is better by

one and a half hours over the iPhone 10

it's hard to compare these unless you

get a real life test going and prices so

the iPhone tennis max starts at a

staggering $1,099 the note 9 isn't cheap

by any means at 999 dollars and the s9

plus seems to be the biggest bargain

here at 720 now about the galaxy's you

can usually get them for a couple

hundred dollars cheaper if you do your

homework if you look around and the

iPhones it's very very hard to find a

discount and you won't for the longest

time they keep their resale value very

very high which is a very big point it's

a very big reason to go with the iPhones

actually and the iPhone 10s max maxes

out at one thousand four hundred and

fifty dollars that's just ridiculous for

the 512 gigabyte model and with tax and

everything they would get close to two

thousand dollars

so bargain wise the galaxies seem to be

the better bang for the buck but apples

has a higher resale so you technically

it equals out a little bit there a

couple other points about the galaxies

obviously this one has the stylus in the

headphone jack and always on display in

terms of software innovation Samsung

seems to certainly give you more for

your money Apple has been very shy with

that no always-on display no dark mode

they're really not taking advantage of

the OLED as much as I would have liked

but hopefully with iOS 13 we'll get

there eventually it's also nice that

this has USB sees pretty much compatible

with every and all cable of the future

anyways there it is guys the iPhone

tennis max versus the galaxies there's a

lot that the iPhone tennis has going for

its value wise the galaxies seem like a

very good deal it just comes down to

personal preference and then there's the

whole matter of Android versus iOS which

I won't touch that subject but just pure

hardware wise and the iPhone certainly

beats it in terms of raw power the note

9 certainly stands strong with the

camera and the display but future

testing will be required to see how they

really compare thanks for watching guys

hopefully I made this choice a little

bit clearer for you to actually see and

understand the differences between all

of these and yeah enjoy the purchase

whichever one it may be peace
