What is the relation about? This is because this technology uses a wire coil that transfers currents within a short distance, where it will not work through the metal. Hence, do not be surprised if the smartphone that uses this technology like Samsung S8 and LG G6 has a rear body with glass material.
In addition, all three have True Tone technology on the screen to adjust the brightness level. Only, from the design, screen material, and resolution, iPhone X is superior to others. For durability, all three have IP67 certification that makes it resistant to water and dust.
