My mom needs a new phone since her old one broke.We are looking for a phone for her for around 900 CAD

What she values in a phone in this order is

1.looks(Aesthetics)

2.camera

3.storage

4.Waterproofing

We were going to buy a S8 but we wanted to see if there were any other options?

She has no prefrence between ios and android

5T or S8 should be fine. 5T doesn't have microSD but the S8 does if that matters to her storage needs

anything other than the obvious?

Evreyone has a S8

The iPhone 7/7 Plus is a pretty obvious choice but it does looks "good" because it's very popular and y'know how people like popular things. 

 

EDIT: The 8/8 Plus is also a choice

 

EDIT 2: oops. Totally forgot about the "CAD" part. Sorry, I thought it was USD. Never mind the 8 Plus but you should still be able to get the 7/7 Plus and maybe the 8 but depends on the availability.

iPhone 8 or iPhone 7/Plus

 

The iPhone has the fastest flash memory and starts at 64GB, leading cameras, looks are meh, and they will both take a swim with you.

iPhone 8 Plus. 

That's 800 USD but when converted, 1000 CAD.
