Especially with the launch of the iPhone 12 series in 2020, most smartphone lovers started looking forward to buying and flaunting this gadget. Still there are some other brands which are giving a tough competition to iPhone in terms of features, performance and of course sales. A prominent one of them is the Samsung Galaxy S series. iPhone 12 and Samsung Galaxy S20 are closest rivals. It’s interesting to compare these prestigious gizmos. Here are two important points of comparison – Screen and Performance.

Screen

The first important point to compare between the two phones is their displays. There are very useful portals like iphonescreenwholesale.com which can help a smartphone user to compare between the two.

The size of the screens of iPhone 12 and Galaxy S20 are almost identical. However, Galaxy S20 has a slightly more screen space with its 6.2-inch screen as compared to the 6.1-inch screen of iPhone 12. Regarding the screen-to-body ratio as well, they are very similar. This ratio is about 88.6% for the Galaxy S20 while it’s 86% for the iPhone 12 due to the minimal borders of both gadgets.

Regarding the color quality and vividness, screens of both the phones rank high, thanks to the involvement of OLED display technology. Also both are very high-resolution, although the Galaxy S20 boasts of higher number of pixels at 3,200 x 1,440 resolution (i.e. 563 pixels per inch) whereas iPhone 12’s display resolution is 2,532 x 1,170 (i.e. 460 ppi).

All in all, each of the screens is going to look stunning. However, Samsung’s phone still has an upper hand in one area: only the Galaxy S20 provides a 120hz refresh rate, which allow a smooth display experience. This is particularly helpful for gamers and those who scroll through mobile webpages. The iPhone 12 falls short in this aspect as the phone sticks with the typical 60hz refresh rate.

However, Apple redesigned the iPhone form factor, denoting the beginning of a “new age” for the iPhone, along with introducing the high-speed 5G connectivity for the first time. Due to the redesign, the durability of iPhone screen enhanced as the “Ceramic Shield” material was introduced to improve its toughness. As per Apple, Ceramic Shield offers 4 times better drop protection to the iPhone 12. iPhone 12 even offers improved protection against submersion, with a water resistance rating that protects against a plunge into a depth of almost 20 feet for half an hour. Although the Galaxy S20 too provides water resistance for half an hour worth of submersion, it’s to a depth of only around 5 feet.

Performance

It’s guaranteed that speed won’t be a problem for both the phones as both of them have mobile processors that are simply great works of engineering. Thus, web browsing and app downloads will occur rapidly on whichever phone you use.

A question arises – will power users get the same speed, especially mobile gamers?

However, speed doesn’t depend only on the CPU. It may depend more on the cellular service you’re using. And now, at last, the iPhone can parallel with Galaxy phones on supporting 5G. iPhone 12 as well as Galaxy S20 come with both variants of the high-speed mobile connectivity, i.e. millimeter-wave (mmWave), the higher-speed version of 5G which is still less widespread.
