I don't know. Both are beautiful!
I can't help you w/ which bag because I like both (maybe the Chevron a little more), but I can help you find the emojis.
At the bottom of the text box, you see "post reply" ,"upload a file", and a cogwheel. Click on the cogwheel.
You'll be directed to a screen where you can still type, but there is a bar w/ all types of things you can do (bold print, italic print, underline, etc.). About midway, you should see a smiley face. Click it and you should see all sorts of faces on the bottom of your text box. Click the word "animated". Click your cursor where you want to place your animation in your text box. Click the animation.
I hope this helped.
Best of luck choosing. You can't make a bad choice between these two beauties!
I am sooooo a classic flap girl. In general don't really care for the reissues. But this one is stunning.
And I never buy a bag that can't comfortably carry my phone. Why?!? What good is the bag at that point. My bag is supposed to carry my stuff. So that would also push me to the chevron.
So chevron reissue definitely gets my vote!

Emojis:
I don't use the app or my laptop to access TPF.. I always use my browser on my iPhone. @ElainePG and @msd_bags, two lovely ladies on another thread I frequent, shared this link to a larger number of emojis that accessible with the smiley face button. Go crazy! LOL!

Chevron reissue, but it would be great to have the mini for a more casual look also. Oath would not be overkill - as long as both make your heart skip...do they both do this? It sounds like the chevron does....
