About the Product
Our vision has always been to create an iPhone that is entirely screen. One so immersive the device itself disappears into the experience. And so intelligent it can respond to a tap, your voice, and even a glance. With iPhone X, that vision is now a reality. Say hello to the future.
The revolutionary design of the Galaxy S8 begins from the inside out. We rethought every part of the phone's layout to break through the confines of the smartphone screen. So all you see is pure content and no bezel. It's the biggest, most immersive screen on a Galaxy smartphone of this size. And it's easy to hold in one hand.

What customers say about "Display"
Apple Iphone X 64GB GSM Unlocked
  • OLED display looks great! Photos are perfect! Animojis are fun!
  • I like the face recognition and the super clear and bright display.
  • The display is really amazing going to an OLED display with a higher resolution is really an upgrade compared to my iPhone 7.
  • The edge to edge display gives you a much bigger screen than the 7 or 8 (not plus phones)
  • Display (not bright enough), harder to hold than a 6/6s/7/8
Samsung Galaxy S8 Unlocked Mobile Phone
  • The S8 has the best display on the market. The phone is lightweight and powerful. Gaming and video playback are very smooth.
  • Awesome display and smooth interface.
  • I just bought a phone and first thing i liked was display with edge and sharp colors! Also when you watch videos on youtube, video will take full screen on phone and show you more view!
  • The edge to edge display further enhances the screen. Perhaps the best feature of the phone.
  • Love the edge display and how it works very well with the phone both locked and unlocked.

What customers say about "Processor"
Apple Iphone X 64GB GSM Unlocked
  • The processor is amazing! Best iPhone Apple has ever made!
  • Amazing pics and fast processor. Love the animal taking emojis.
  • The new processor/CPU is very fast can handle any task or multiple task very well. The Face ID works good so far
  • The phones processor is lightening fast with no lag time at all. The facial rec works unbelievably fast and accurately. While riding in the car last night in the dark, it still unlocked my phone.
  • For being the new IPhone "generation X", it has a slow processor & the camera has a delayed caption
Samsung Galaxy S8 Unlocked Mobile Phone
  • Love processor speed, resolution and everything in general.
  • The graphic is amazing and processor of the phone is fast.
  • It has fast ram that makes it efficient to run many apps at the same time. It also has enough memory to download several apps.
  • Zero lag due to 4gb Ram and QS835 processor. Definitely the best video quality in the market right now.
  • The processor is nice and fast, and I feel that the storage space is adequate. Should storage ever become an issue it's upgrade-able with Samsung bringing back the SD mini card holder again!

What customers say about "Features"
Apple Iphone X 64GB GSM Unlocked
  • Speakers at both ends of the phone make noticeably better sound when watching video.
  • Operating without a home button does not take long to get used to.
  • The face ID is really solid I have only have to not recognize me when I have my aviator sunglasses on.
  • Very easy to take accidental screenshots.
  • The no home button does take some getting use too but its pretty easy transition.
  • Best iphone so far... easy to use and only complaint is no bluetooth headphone included
Samsung Galaxy S8 Unlocked Mobile Phone
  • Great phone. Love the iris scanner. Not impressed by location of the finger print scanner and the curve of the phones edges.
  • Excellent smartphone, with ip68 protocol for water issues.
  • Great Phone, Samsung has a lot of great features especially their Samsung pay feature.
  • I love the personal assistant "Bixby", the camera is fantastic, and the Samsung health feature lets me record my vitals and keep track of eating and sleeping habits.
  • I dont like how the speaker sounds. It´s a poor mono speaker.
  • It's a great phone, but wish Samsung would allow this phone to have the dual SIM card feature for their US version.

What customers say about "Power"
Apple Iphone X 64GB GSM Unlocked
  • The OLED screen is a game changer and the battery life is heads and shoulders better than an iPhone 7.
  • Fast, reliable and the battery lasts me all day.
  • The only thing I don’t like is how long it takes to get a full charge.
  • Battery is not as long Life as iPhone 6s
Samsung Galaxy S8 Unlocked Mobile Phone
  • This is my first Samsung phone. I love it. The display is crystal clear. One full charge of battery lasted for > 24hrs.
  • I particularly like the long battery life and the cordless charger.
  • The other things are perfect but my only issue is regarding to the battery performance and it's not as I saw from the reviews and some YouTubes.
  • The only weakness I can find from S8 is the battery life. It cannot last for one whole day without charging. But the functionality is really much more powerful compared with iphone.
