iPhone 6s Plus vs Galaxy S8

Which one is best for you?

Both these phones are older models, but built to the highest quality, so either would be a good choice if you’re looking for a budget-friendly alternative to the latest releases.

The Galaxy S8 is the newer of the two and, though it isn’t officially a large format phone, actually has a slightly larger screen than iPhone 6s Plus. It also has an 8-megapixel front camera with autofocus (up from 5 megapixels on the Galaxy S7) – so it’s perfect for selfie fans.

iPhone 6s Plus comes with a 12-megapixel main camera with 4K video capability and optical image stabilisation – in other words shoots incredibly detailed video and automatically keeps the lens steady to produce better results. If you like taking videos on the fly – it’s a great choice.
