I did however, make an apk for android(you use a .apk file to install an app on your android device), which...

Apple has their regular iPhone 11, then two higher-end "Pro" models. Samsung went the other way — they have the Galaxy S20 and S20+, then there's the S20 Ultra. But one thing these smartphone lines do have in common is the base model flagship. How do they compare?

Well, that and it's an augmented reality headset as well.
