At the risk of wading into the iPhone vs Android battle...:

iPhone 8 vs Nexus 6 from 2014, back when Google marketed that series as reasonable Dev devices, not necessarily flagships.

326 ppi vs 493 ppi

750 x 1334 pixels vs 1440 x 2560 pixels

IPS LCD vs AMOLED

Somewhere there is a tongue in cheek meme comparing a sister phone, the Nexus 4, from 2012 against a 2016(?) iPhone and it's quite interesting how many features the Android phones had and were mildly credited for that when copied to iPhone were /world changers!!1/

Granted, Android phone manufacturers have wised up and besides things like the Nokia 6.1 you can't really get a good mid-range Android phone any more... it's mostly clustered around either the humble Moto E or the Note 9 price points.



I know my G1 had online contact syncing and updates while the iPhone still required a USB adapter.
