Based on design. Which one looks better?
>>62391530
S8 simply because the earpiece and cameras don't overlap with the top of the screen
>>62391530
S8 looks more stylish with its symmetry.
And that's odd, because Apple phones used to have proper symmetry before.
>>62391530
S8 has
>No bezel
Both look awful. I mean the front is ok on both, it's just a screen but the back is egregious. More so on the iPhone. Where did the iPhone 5 design go? It was so great.
>>62391530
The S8 no contest.
iPhone 7 has now the best design
S8 is much less symmetrical. especially on the back Also the cameras and sensors are visible which interrupts the design. Worse materials also. SAMSUNG branding has always looked bad. Much less ergonomic especially when fingerprint scanner is taken into account.

In Steve's grave
>>62391530
>>62391530
S8. Both are garbage though.
>>62392144
Looks like cheap trash dude
>>62391530
>>62392144
>>62391530
The s8, iPhone looks cheaply made to me
Somehow they made an iPhone that looks worse than the fist one. Apple is just hack chink shit without Steve Jobs to blow smoke up people's asses.
the iphone x is so epic. any male woman like myself should get one
>>62392144
>>62391530
S8
Jesus Christ, Steve is wallowing in his grave.

You're a fucking retard if you think aesthetic features cost money in this day and age, and especially so in smartphones. The fact of the matter is that Sony managed to pack a flagship into a 4.5" phone with a reasonably good camera and excellent battery life. This is the picture of pragmatism, the model for what every smartphone should seek to achieve.
>>62391530
I'm just going to buy the note8
>>62392274
Yeah and it sold like shit. Cool story.
>>62392211
>Somehow
They did that every year since 5.
I'm kan ifag and I will say that I find the iPhone X absolutely hideous; and the name sucks just as bad as the design. iPhone 8 is cool though.
>>62392047
Are you literally retarded?
When folded horizontally and vertically the s8 is symmetrical where as the X is only symmetrical vertically. And even on the back the s8 is nearly vertically symmetrical whereas the X is not because the camera is on the far left instead of the middle
If this is bait, you truley got me anon
>>62392310
And Nickelback sales well, so did WoW, and Apple. None of which are by any means good.
>>62391530
They both look terrible, and the one on the right looks like one of those Motorola garbage phones.
>>62392400
>only symmetrical vertically
It's time to get your eyes checked.
>>62392404
>sales well
Try again, Pajeet
>>62391530
The one that doen't look like a vegeta themed phone with nu male baldness, so the S8.
>>62392457
Let me help you out anon...
>>62392605
Thanks you proved my point?
>>62391530
s8 looks better but CURVED SCREENS are ABSOLUTELY FUCKING RETARDED
>>62391530
Honestly I don't like either. I hate these slim flimsy phones that feel like they'll break if a slight breeze brushes them.
I love Cat phones though, way better looking and actually comfortable.
>>62392654
>s8 much less symmetrical
>Less symmetrical
>pictures showing s8 having more ways of symmetry than X
Anon...
The notch looks okay... But it shouldn't block pictures and videos. There should be a way to keep the sides of the notch black at all times
>>62391530
This is so objective
>took one of promotion photos of S8
>took some shitty photo which is literally pixelated for iphone.
Also I think Samsung probably looks better but I would need some good photos to compare it.
>>62392864
did you notice how the left side of the video was always dark and obscured whenever they showed videos with the notch?
>>62392864
What's the point of having the notch then?
I already thought that that android released a couple months ago by that ex android dev or whatever was ugly with the broken screen at the top, but holy shot apple has taken it one step further
>>62391530
S8 just because the colour gamma of the new iphone is fucking gay.
Essential Phone.
>>62392864
a fucking notch
You can still use it as a status bar, but it could fade to black in full screen. I'll have to see it in person before I can really decide though
>>62392864
wtf so fucking amateur
Essential is the best looking mobile
>>62391530

>>62392144
which xperia is it?
>>62392047
Asians in general don't like symmetry as much as Westerners
>>62391530
Literally the worst design fuck up since HON
>>62391630
This
>>62392928
Apparently, you did not. Videos had the issue of the notch. It did not black out the entire side. See image.
>>62393156
the new aquaos crystal fucked up, i feel fucking bad for even thinking of sharp, they arent even japanese anymore mostly china bought them.
>>62393401
no, I mean the video itself was darker on the left side to make the notch less noticeable. A lot of the videos were silhouettes or dark mountains to hide the notch.
>>62391530
Design is more than just looks. Steve Jobs is rolling in his grave at the loss of the home button. Now you have 3 different gestures for opening, closing and switching between apps, and a facial recognition system that who the hell knows will be reliable. What an overengineered piece of poo.
>>62391530
Both are horrible.
>>62393669
This. But form a looks standpoint the front side of the samsung phone looks way better.
>>62391530
Samshit devices will always remind me of the feature phones I had as a kid.
And those things were garbage.
>>62391530
S8 looks better, sure, but it sacrifices function for form with that curved screen on the sides, which after using a demo for a few minutes was a real fucking bitch to avoid. I had to hold the phone like a retard to even use it properly.
>>62391530
S8, but Mi MIX beats both
>>62392258
why it's using android beam on the table?
>>62391530
S8 from the front, both are garbage from the back. Best rear face design is Nexus 6P style visor and rear center fingerprint sensor (props to Apple for fitting biometrics under the logo, but I prefer a small recess)
>>62391530
>S8
>BOZOLESS XDDDDDDD
>iPhone
>top-of-screen-less XDDDDDD
They're both utter shit. At least you can put a case on the S8 to kind of mitigate the problem (although ew, cases), so I'm going to have to go with that.
>>62395164
Fuck off big bezel bill
>>62392144
>>62392193
>>62392258
Why are the buttons at the bottom?
Gross.
s8 has project treble baked in and vulkan capable GPU
if you can unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP and lineage it will be a very nice phone
>>62392299
This.
>>62393173
Xperia Z5. Though I think that might be the Compact. Quality phone, either way.
this is the best designed phone in years prove me wrong (pro-tip you can't)
>>62396645
Whereas with the iPhone you don't have to do any of that.
>>62393200
This is what happens when you give your case designer a mockup without branding.
>>62391530
Why the fuck did they even bother with making the sides of the notch a screen?
>>62391530
Definitely the samsung.
Shame about android tho.
>>62391530
I hate both of them
The notch is cancer though
