Samsung Galaxy S9 vs iPhone
X design and screen – What’s the difference?
Now
that Apple has embraced a bezel-less design on the iPhone X, it’s beginning to
sport a look that’s far more similar to its Android rival. After all, we’ve
been seeing ever-thinner bezels on Android phones for what feels like an age
now.
It
all started with the Galaxy S8, and with Samsung having made
few changes with the Galaxy S9, those similarities remain. On the Galaxy S9,
Samsung has shaved off even more of the bezel, making the top and bottom of
even thinner. Some bezel remains at the top to house the cameras and sensors.
Apple’s
approach is slightly different, and somewhat more contentious. Its screen goes
right to the edge of the phone’s top frame, but there’s a cutout area – or
‘notch’, as it’s colloquially known – for the camera and sensors. Samsung
famously mocked this design choice in comedic videos last year. ‘Notches’ are
becoming more common among Android phones, but we’re happy to see that Samsung
hasn’t followed suit.
The
fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy S9 sits below the camera on the rear. It’s
better placed, but remains fiddly to use and is very small. The Galaxy S9 also
includes face and iris unlock as a rival to Apple’s clever Face ID sign-in
system. Apple’s Face ID offers the more complete solution – you can’t use your
irises for Google Play payments, for example – but of course there’s no Touch
ID sensor anymore.
