Apple and Samsung are in the middle of around 20 different court cases around the world, and Samsung isn’t obviously that impressed with Apple’s iPhone 4S, so they have sent out a comparison sheet between the new Apple iPhone 4S and Samsung’s flagship Android device, the Samsung Galaxy S II.
The comparison sheet below compares the specifications between the two devices, and we suspect we may see another one of these next week from Samsung when they unveil the new Samsung Google Nexus S, which is rumored to come with a range of high end specification, including a HD display.
Detailed Comparison of Specifications
The Samsung Galaxy S II boasts a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, which offers vibrant colors and deep blacks, making it one of the best displays on the market at the time. It is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core Exynos processor, which ensures smooth performance and the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. The device also comes with 1GB of RAM and offers storage options of 16GB or 32GB, which can be expanded further using a microSD card.
On the other hand, the iPhone 4S features a 3.5-inch Retina display with a resolution of 960 x 640 pixels. While smaller in size, the Retina display is known for its sharpness and clarity. The iPhone 4S is powered by Apple’s A5 chip, a dual-core processor that provides efficient performance and improved graphics capabilities. The device comes with 512MB of RAM and storage options of 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB, though it lacks expandable storage.
Camera and Software Features
When it comes to the camera, the Samsung Galaxy S II is equipped with an 8-megapixel rear camera capable of recording 1080p HD video. It also has a 2-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls and selfies. The camera app on the Galaxy S II offers various shooting modes and settings, allowing users to capture high-quality photos and videos.
The iPhone 4S also features an 8-megapixel rear camera with 1080p HD video recording capabilities. Apple’s camera app is known for its simplicity and ease of use, providing users with a seamless photography experience. The front-facing camera on the iPhone 4S is a VGA camera, which is sufficient for video calls but lacks the resolution of the Galaxy S II’s front camera.
In terms of software, the Samsung Galaxy S II runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, with Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface layered on top. This combination offers a customizable and feature-rich experience, with access to a wide range of apps and services through the Google Play Store.
The iPhone 4S, on the other hand, runs on iOS 5, which introduces features like iMessage, Notification Center, and Siri, Apple’s voice-activated personal assistant. iOS is known for its smooth performance, intuitive interface, and seamless integration with other Apple devices and services.
You can see the full comparison sheet below, and we would be interested to hear from our readers which device they would choose, the Samsung Galaxy S II or the new iPhone 4S. I suspect many people will be waiting for the new Samsung Google Nexus Prime before they make a decision.
