Stephanie Wise [![The Battle of Samsung and Apple](https://blog.safeware.com/hubfs/s10xsmax.jpg)](https://blog.safeware.com/hubfs/s10xsmax.jpg) 4 March ## The Battle of Samsung and Apple March 4, 2019 by [Stephanie Wise](https://blog.safeware.com/author/stephanie-wise) 0 With Samsung's new Galaxy S10 and Apple's iPhone XS Max, the two companies continue to battle it out by producing comparable phones. **Price** A new trend in smartphones is their ever-increasing price tag: Samsung’s Galaxy S10 Plus retails for $999 and Apple’s iPhone XS Max retails for $1,099. **Camera** Both Samsung and Apple’s models boast large screens- 6.4 inches and 6.5 inches, respectively. The S10 edges out the XS Max in camera quality, with a 16-MP ultrawide camera. **Audio** One benefit to the S10 that many consumers are happy to see is the headphone jack, compared to Apple’s transition to eliminating the headphone jack from their newer phone models. **Build** The iPhone XS Max feels a bit sturdier that its Samsung counterpart, due in part to the durable glass screen and stainless-steel build. While there are many other factors to consider before purchasing your newest phone, Samsung and Apple’s newest releases show that smartphones continue to become more high-tech, more expensive, and full of continually evolving features.       ### Comments (0) ### Categories - [K-12 (12)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/k-12) - [Warranty Information (8)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/warranty-information) - [Higher Education (7)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/higher-education) - [Technology insurance (7)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/technology-insurance) - [Claims (3)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/claims) - [COVID-19 (2)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/covid-19) - [Fitness (2)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/fitness) - [Furniture (2)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/furniture) - [Appliances (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/appliances) - [BowProtect (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/bowprotect) - [Commercial Restaurants (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/commercial-restaurants) - [Insider (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/insider) - [Renters Insurance (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/renters-insurance) - [Short-term insurance (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/short-term-insurance) - [Your Safeware Portal (1)](https://blog.safeware.com/tag/your-safeware-portal) See all ### Recent Posts - ![What Are Product Protection Plans?
