In terms of features and specifications, we are dealing with two so-called high-end devices and almost certainly with two of the best terminals on the market. It is true that they differ in some aspects, but they are offset in others to show themselves as two smartphones with enormous performance and benefits.

Near perfect design on both devices

When Samsung presented the Galaxy Note 7 in society, we were all amazed by its design, taken care of down to the last detail. Yesterday Apple again took a new step forward yesterday by presenting the new iPhone 7 that greatly improve the design of the previous iPhone 6s and that puts it again at the level of the best terminals on the market.

Samsung

Deciding on one or the other is tremendously difficult and each one has its benefits and strengths. The Galaxy Note 7 stands out for its screen, stylized to the maximum or its great finishes and the iPhone 7 stands out for its variety of colors, its rounded finish and the location of the buttons. Deciding on one design or another? At the moment it is impossible, at least for us.

Camera, a point in favor of the iPhone 7

The camera of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is exactly the same as the one mounted on the Galaxy Edge S7 with which nobody or almost nobody could doubt the enormous quality that it offers us when taking pictures. However, Apple has achieved a very important advantage in the aspect of the camera and that is that it has managed to improve the iPhone 6s camera that seemed without a doubt very difficult to improve.

The new iPhone 7 Plus has a dual lens, which will differentiate it from many other high-end terminals. One of them is a wide angle that will allow us to take photographs in a common way. The second slow will allow us to capture more distant objects. The images taken will offer us a greater depth of field that previously we could only obtain if we got very close to the object of the photograph or if we moved far enough away.

There is no doubt that both cameras are of enormous quality, but in the absence of being able to test both devices in depth, the iPhone 7 Plus seems to be one step ahead of the Galaxy Note 7 thanks mainly to the double lens, which Already rumors are Samsung could incorporate in the next Galaxy S8.

Software and performance

Another important difference that we can find between both devices is the software, which is totally different, and the performance that is usually closely linked to the software and to a lesser extent to the hardware.

Starting with the Galaxy Note 7 we find Samsung's own processor, the Exynos 8990 (64 bit and 14 nm) and the Mali-T880 GPU, which supported on 4GB of RAM they offer us remarkable performance. For his part the 7 iPhone Plus ride the new A10 Fusion with 64-bit architecture that together with a RAM 2GB it is not far behind when it comes to performance.

The performance is closely linked to the software and it is that although it seems that the Apple iPhone is a step behind the Samsung terminal, this theory is totally invalidated when testing it with the benefits offered by the new iOS 10 that already We have been lucky enough to test the trial versions that the Cupertino company has launched.

Samsung's new flagship features Android 6.0 as an operating system, although it is expected that the update to the new Android 7.0 Nougat will be launched very soon. Like we have already said iPhone 7 has iOS 10 as the operating system. As soon as the Galaxy Note 7 adopts the new version of Android, it may be time to declare a winner in this section. At the moment the Apple terminal is proclaimed the winner, at least for now.

Price

Samsung

Neither the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 nor the iPhone 7 Plus will be two cheap or cheap devices, and that unfortunately will not be available to any user, although it is becoming easier to acquire one of these terminals, thanks for example to the important offers and amenities that mobile operators offer us to acquire them.

The price of the Samsung flagship is 859 euros in its most basic version. For its part, the price of the iPhone 7 Plus starts at 909 euros for the 32 GB version. In this section, the triumph is taken by the device of the South Korean company that we can acquire for a somewhat lower price.

Opinion freely

All of you who read me daily already know that currently, and for some time now, I use an iPhone 6s Plus 64 GB with which I am delighted after many years using a Galaxy Note 3. We could say that both the terminal Samsung, like the iPhone are my two favorite devices, although If I had to opt for one of the two devices that we have analyzed today, I would undoubtedly do so for the one from Cupertino, and I explain the reasons.

The design of the iPhone 7 Plus, its double camera and above all the simplicity and the enormous options that iOS 10 offers us are the main points that in my opinion the duel is won by the Apple terminal. I also think that another really important aspect comes into play, such as the problem that the Galaxy Note 7 is having with its battery that is causing the uncontrolled explosion of the device.

Whether we want to or not, we all have in mind the different explosions suffered by various users of the Galaxy Note 7. This makes many of us afraid to consider the possibility of acquiring the Samsung terminal, for fear that, for example, it could explode us in our pants pocket or in our own hands.

Even with everything, if we put aside the problem of the explosions of the Galaxy Note 7, I still believe that the new king of the mobile phone market is the iPhone 7, although this is just my own opinion, based on everything I know and know about one or the other device. As I was saying, this is just my opinion, but now I would like to know yours, yes, without using fanaticism or disqualifying anyone for choosing one or the other terminal.

With which mobile device of the two that we have compared today would you choose?. Tell us your opinion in the space reserved for comments on this post or through any of the social networks in which we are present. In a few days we will tell you how many of our readers are inclined towards the Galaxy Note and how many towards the new iPhone 7 Plus.

    As far as I know the iphone 7 has 3 GB of Ram

      Hello Piriot!

      Regarding this, there are many doubts. Apple has not confirmed the RAM memory that the device has, but everything indicates that it is 2GB and not 3GB as it was rumored at first.

      A greeting!

    Between the two, the Note 7. The Note 7 starts with 64GB expandable if you ever fill that capacity. The Amoled screen and the resolution of the Note 7 still look too spectacular compared to the iPhone 7. Wireless charging. For a phablet, the Note 7 is more complete when it comes to taking advantage of that screen size. The strengths of the iPhone 7 are the stereo sound, and the camera that must be a little better than the Note 7, and I say a little better because the Note 7's camera is already fantastic. Finally Apple makes its mobile waterproof, and that has been Samsung for a long time, the iPhone 7 really did not surprise me much, because the vast majority of the news brought, are news for the iPhone itself. I think next year the iPhone will be more interesting. It remains to be seen what Samsung will also offer, but among those, in my opinion, Samsung is the king of phablets.

      Hi Ricardo!

      As I said at the end, they are details, and for those details the winner is the Note 7. I share your opinion on most of the things you say, but I have been staying with the iPhone 7.

      Doesn't the issue of the note 7 explode at any given moment scare you?

      A greeting!

    There is missing the HP elite X3. It beats them by far. In hard.

    Much harder in and for business applications.

    The operating system is everything as long as you have android it will remain the same to all. You find it in a low, medium and high-end phone, just change the version and ??? In the end it is the same. For that I better buy a cheap mid-range one and I get the same, a Sony or a Nokia have good cameras, in the end I am not a professional photographer. In short, iPhone was, is and will be the best.

      Hi Fabricio!

      I can only tell you that I agree with you from beginning to end 😉

      A greeting!

    At this point, saying that the iphone 7 / plus is the best on the market is really a mistake, the novelty of this terminal already came in past androids / windows (if it is considered novel to force you to buy your bluetooth headphones), use the so heights to say that it is the best, it does not have much validity, because in my opinion android has many security flaws but it does innovate in everything, therefore the samsung note or the hp x3 (which is windows) are very far superior to the iphone, now if we talk about security we must remember that there are many ways to obtain information from both so (android and ios), windows 10 mobile is the only insurance to date, apple iphone from this humble point of view is only a brand, because for half the value presented by each iphone I find many equal and even better options with the other so (and even with more features), however I must recognize the work of "technological" pages like this one that gives rise to great saying overpriced products, regards

      Hi Juan Evans!

      Honestly in some aspects of your presentation I agree with you, but as a user of Windows 10 Mobile that I am, I think we cannot even dare to buy it with Android or iOS. Microsoft has a lot of work ahead of it, and maybe when it completes it we can compare it.

      A greeting!

    Well look, the iPhone7 DOES NOT EXPLODE, period!

      Hello Silbestre Macias!

      Let's give it a little time, don't go Boooooomm !!

    Most of the analyzes are based on its external appearance, its camera, capacity, etc., but… what about the coverage power? After all, they are telephones, which no matter how "intelligent" their main purpose is to be able to communicate optimally and it is very rare (almost absent) that they show comparisons in this regard.

    1.    Villamandos said

      Hello Gerardo Rojas!

      In what you tell us, I think that the majority of terminals on the market do not offer any coverage problem, it is more a problem related, for example, with operators.

      A greeting!
