In addition, iPhone 7 has an advantage when it comes to camera aperture since it has a bit wider aperture with f/1.8 compared to Galaxy 7 f/1.7 aperture. In a nutshell, iPhone 7 has the most likable camera specs among the two because of its dual-camera set-up with wide-angle lens and telephoto lens.
