Nope - it doesn't handle phone calls well

So an Oudie IGC is about the same as an iPhone X and iGlide, and doesn't make phone calls.

With the iPhone, you get an IGC recorder but I don't think it is legal for records. Other than that everything would seem to favor the iPhone - more memory, much better display, built in tracking, much faster at everything it does, and it does infinitely more. I'm not sure if the battery would last all day at full brightness, but a battery pack that will run it for days is about $30. For strictly glider use, it will come down to whether you like SYM or iGlide better. I have run both and know which one I like, but it is clearly personal preference.

Not sure what you pay in Europe, but in the US, an iPhone X is $1000 and iGlide Pro is $220.
