iPhone SE vs Galaxy Note8
Which one is best for you?
iPhone SE and Galaxy Note8 could hardly be further apart in size. iPhone SE with its 4-inch screen, is a great choice if you’re looking for something that fits easily in your pocket. An older model, it’s good value and has traditional features such as a physical home button. The Galaxy Note8 screen is one of the largest Samsung smartphones – and being much more recent it has some very impressive features. Plus it comes with the S Pen – handy for jotting down notes and much more.
