Would you pick Samsung or iPhone? It has become an important question of the of the phone industry recently.
Here is how they line up:
Samsung Galaxy S5:
Physical size: 5.1"
Resolution: 1080 x 1920 pixels
Pixel Density: 432 ppi
Touch Screen: multi-touch
Apple iPhone 5S:
Physical size: 4"
Resolution: 640 x 1136 pixels
Pixel Density: 326 ppi
Touch Screen: yes
The Galaxy S5 has a larger screen which is quite appealing. Samsung’s latest Super AMOLED display offers all the benefits you normally get with LCD, along with the spectacular contrast and black levels of OLED. Screen size is important as well – watching a film on the Galaxy S5 would be much more fun than doing so on an iPhone 5S.
However, if this is not a huge priority, the Galaxy S5 doesn’t categorically beat the iPhone 5S in that many other respects. The capabilities of the core hardware are somewhat similar, and while the Galaxy S5 can produce more detailed photos, its new focus style only brings it to around the same speed as the iPhone in use.
There are key benefits to an iPhone as well – it is a more manageable size, it still offers a richer apps and games library and iOS 7 is much more reliable than Android 4.4 after it has been given the Samsung TouchWiz interface treatment.
