Apple iPhone 11 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy S24
Our Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S24 came out in 2024, after the Apple iPhone 11 Pro in 2019, so it's the more recent phone. The S24 leads on camera hardware with a 50MP main sensor to the iPhone 11 Pro's 12MP, and the S24 supports 5G while the iPhone 11 Pro tops out at 4G. There's more battery in the S24, 4000mAh to 3046mAh, though iOS and Android manage power differently, so more mAh doesn't always mean longer battery life, and the S24 has the bigger screen at 6.2" against 5.8", while the iPhone 11 Pro has the sharper one at 463 PPI. The S24 is the one to have if you want what it adds, but the iPhone 11 Pro is the smarter buy if you'd rather keep the money.
If you'd rather pay up front, the iPhone 11 Pro is the cheaper buy at £140 SIM-free.
