I'm actually not a fan of the Beatles. I simply like all good music. But with a historical view you must admit that this band was much more important and influential than U2.
But ironically I would agree with you when you take a look at the specific sound of these bands and when you consider the different socialization of the generations.
For our ears, for the ears of younger people the Beatles sound a bit old-fashioned, childish and simple. The sound of U2 is much more sophisticated and existentialist, melancholic.
And I must admit that U2 has contributed much to pop history.
But if you abstract from these generational things then in my opinion:
Beatles > U2.
