Buying outright: Nearly every carrier will let you pay upfront for a phone, and you can always buy from someone else. This is always going to be your most expensive option upfront, but it also means you own your device. Your monthly service plan will usually cost less as well, since you're not paying for hardware.
Samsung currently produce arguably better phones than Apple. Samsung S8+ is better than iPhone 7 Plus, especially in design.
Apple and Google both have fantastic app stores. But Android is far superior at organizing apps, letting you put important stuff on the home screens and hide less useful apps in the app drawer. Also, Android's widgets are much more useful than Apple's.
