Everyone wondered what the price would be. Especially in Russia, where pricing does not always depend on the ruble exchange rate or technical characteristics. We choose with the heart, not the head. And let it sound like an anecdote about a blonde and a red car, but the "iPhone" is often taken precisely because it is "an iPhone".
After the presentation of the smartphone, speculation with prices intensified, especially against the background of the fact that Russia is not among the countries where the "ten" will be sold from October 27. In our country, the iPhone X will go on sale on November 3. start at RUB 79,990 for the 64GB version and RUB 91,990 for the 256GB model. However, those who do not want to wait so long are offered a "super offer" - you can become the owner of the most stuffed Apple flagship even before the start of pre-orders for 2 million rubles.
However, even before the start of sales and even before the presentation of the iPhone X, there were and remain worthy rivals to the "apple phone" on the market. They are not inferior to him either in design or in characteristics, and even surpass him in price - in the sense that they are several times cheaper. So here are 15 iPhone X alternatives.
Samsung
The Korean giant, which is Apple's main competitor, has at least two models that can rival the top ten. For example, a flagship that is already being successfully sold, or that will be on sale in the next few days. This is a practically frameless screen (5.8 inches for the S8 and 6.3 inches for the Note8), a powerful processor, an excellent camera (the S has one module, the Note8 has a dual module), and the price starts from 35,000 rubles. Well, soon we should expect the Galaxy S9 releases.
Sony
In June, the Japanese presented the flagship of the new Xperia series line in Moscow -. A feature of the model is the 23-megapixel Motion Eye camera with its own memory module. The cost of a smartphone is from 54,000 rubles.
And last week in the lineup it was practically not inferior in terms of filling the flagship, as well as the Xperia XA1 line - without a smart camera. At the same time, the cost of the XZ1 will be 49,990 rubles, and the XA1 is already on sale, while the Ultra version with a 6-inch screen is available from 20,000 thousand rubles.

Htc
Amid rumors of the company's sale to Internet giant Google, HTC still boasts premium smartphones. Among these is the U11 model. It is a premium design and Gorilla Glass 5 on all sides, a 5.5-inch screen, a powerful processor and GPU, which turns the smartphone into a multimedia harvester. Plus, a 12MP camera with intuitive Edge Sense controls - you don't even need to press the shutter, and BoomSound Hi-Fi Edition speakers with surround sound. The cost for a model with 64 GB on board starts at 42,000 rubles.
You can also pay attention to the U Ultra model, which has a larger screen diagonal (5.7 inches) and costs an order of magnitude cheaper than the U11 - prices start at 23,500 rubles.
Since we remembered about the giant, it is worth noting the smartphone under its own brand and entirely developed by Google. And let it be assembled at the HTC factory. The Google Pixel and Pixel XL are last year's flagships, replacing the Nexus 5X (co-developed with LG) and 6P (co-developed with Huawei).
The smartphone could boast of a 12-megapixel camera, a 4-core processor, cool AMOLED displays of 5 and 5.5 inches, respectively, and of course the freshest OS from Android at that time - 7.1 Nougat. Soon we should expect the appearance of the second generation of "Google" -smartphones -.

Another Korean giant with "the smallest big smartphone" is the G6. So he was nicknamed because in the case with a diagonal of 5.3 inches, there is a screen with a diagonal of 5.7 inches. How this is physically possible is a mystery, but the manufacturer boasts of "cinematic image quality." There is a dual main camera - 13 megapixels each, while one of them has a wide-angle lens.
In addition, you can take a closer look at the V30 - presented at the recent IFA show. A powerful processor, a capacious battery, a 6-inch screen and a 13 megapixel camera. Plus the ability to shoot and edit 4K video and sound from Bang & Olufsen. The price is not yet clear - in Korea they promise around $ 700, but whether the device will arrive in Russia is a big question.
Moto
The long-suffering brand has presented and will soon start selling it in Russia, at a rather modest price - from 34,990 rubles. All the charm of the gadget is in replaceable accessories that expand its capabilities - a column, a gamepad, a photomodule, a 360-degree camera, a projector, etc. Well, in addition, it is a thin body (5.99 mm) and a weight of 145 grams, an 8-core processor, 64GB on board, 5.5 inches Full HD Super AMOLED display and 12MP laser focusing camera up to 5 meters.
Honor
The Chinese continue to expand in all directions. Mobile electronics is no exception. The Nonor brand, which belongs to the Huawei corporation, boasts a "unique design" that immediately resembles both the iPhone and Samsung. Among other things, the smartphone has a dual camera (20 MP + 12 MP) with hybrid zoom, Huawei Histen surround sound technology, an 8-core Kirin 960 processor and a powerful battery with fast charging function. You can buy this miracle from 26,990 rubles.
But Huawei also produces smartphones under its namesake brand, for example, P10 / P10 Plus. For 40,990 rubles, you can get a 5.5 "WQHD screen in a thin metal case, a dual camera of 20 and 12 megapixels, created in collaboration with the legendary company Leica (in general, the device is positioned as created for photography lovers), the same processor as in Honor. and a powerful battery.
