You're missing some facts. Apple is charging a premium for their A11 where Snapdragon is trying to keep costs low. Apple is fine charging you $1000 for a phone and sheep will buy it. Samsung can use better, faster chips but it costs money and no one is paying $1000 for a samsung.
Considering Android has 82 percent of the global market compared to 18 percent for Apple, it's safe to say the Snapdragon 835 will outsell the A11.
