Comparison of the Samsung Galaxy S with the iPhone 4


Galaxy S with the iPhone 4Do you remember the controversy that existed between Samsung and Apple on the issue of the AMOLED screen in front of the Retina Display screen of the new iPhone? My partner Miguel Michan and told us at the entrance screen of the iPhone Retina 4 generates conflicting views when it introduced the new Apple terminal, said that the resolution of the Retina Display was not like we painted it Steve Jobs, and more would be needed dots per inch to proclaim that would not be the pixels on the screen IPS. In the end, it turned out that only people with perfect vision, and they looked close enough to the terminal would be able to distinguish the pixels. But as the saying goes, troubled waters, fishermen gain. And he came and said that Samsung was not so bad, and the screen AMOLED riding on its newly launched Galaxy terminal S wave soups gave the iPhone 4. In Engadget have been able to compare the two, the Samsung S Galaxy and iPhone 4 side by side and see which of the screens is better.

Samsung said that although the iPhone’s resolution is higher, the only visible difference is the 3 to 5 percent, and its screen was much more economical in terms of consumption refers to Apple’s. Well, the Apple display reaches 326 points per inch, and the Samsung screen is a resolution of 233 dpi , far from the resolution of Apple. After the jump see what we are saying there.

The tests have been to have made ​​up almost the maximum brightness on the screen AMOLED from Samsung to compare with the maximum brightness of the iPhone also. They compared a few pictures on the website of Engadget, but if I have to stay with a couple of them to illustrate the differences I would be with these three:

Engadget says that both terminals have two great displays, but putting them to maximum brightness, it is surprising brightness IPS in front of the AMOLED , and the resolution of the iPhone is just fantastic compared to the other terminal. They say it is difficult to decide in terms of viewing angles, but outdoor lighting AMOLED display makes this better than the iPhone.

Also at the entrance to Engadget we can find a couple of videos, particularly this one , and another in which he compared to daylight . Obviously I have not had the two in hand and I’m a bit like San Pedro St. Thomas, and until you put your finger on the sore prefer not to judge, but apparently seen it seems that Apple screen wins by a landslide in resolution , tie for viewing angle, and as for consumption, the terminal Samsung has a battery life of 1 day of normal use because of its low battery 1500 mAh, compared to more than 38 hours of use of the iPhone 4 ( 1420 mAh), so with all the iPhone 4 spend less. You can imagine which of the two I stay, right?.

Samsung Galaxy S


Samsung Galaxy S

At this point it is hard to determine which OS is more important in the development policy terminals Samsung, on the one hand have their own system as bada, far away we will have a relationship with Windows Phone 7 Series, and throughout the voyage of Android have been walking hand in hand. At the CTIA have presented what may be the most important terminal operating system from Google, we talk about the Samsung Galaxy S.

Also known as Samsung GT-I9000, time off at a market in which competition Android high-end phones is very strong, and not to be outdone uses Android 2.1, this time accompanied by a proprietary user interface Samsung already had occasion to see on the phone with projector, Samsung Beam. I’ve lost the real meaning of the mark, but we see her back “with Google”.

Samsung intends to retain all the power and possibilities of Android, but making us forget its original appearance, so that the interface is a very important change with respect to competing solutions, though, also based on multiple desktops and widgets. It features integration with major social networking functionality dubbed Social Hub.

In terms of design, we find simple lines, more conservative than we saw in the Samsung Wave , but with dimensions only conditioned by the size of the screen, since the thickness is only 9.9mm. The full dimensions are 64.2 × terminal 122.4 x 9.9 mm, weighing only 118 grams, considering the size.

With respect to the applications we will be orphaned, because it has full access to Android Market , but also Samsung has decided to include some applications at launch, as the browser-based augmented reality Layar , or the integration of Swype as a method of data entry.

Also notable is the ability to play HD video of the device, making it a true portable media player, supporting formats as extensive as Divx HD, Xvid and MKV.

Hardware, setting the bar high

In regard to the hardware we have two elements that attract your attention, first of its 4-inch screen with SuperAMOLED technology and resolution WVGA (800 × 480 pixels), and secondly its 1GHz processor. The truth is that the specifications are far from promising Samsung Galaxy that I had occasion to analyze.

It is clear that we have a phone to the latest in technology, but has many more details that surprise us, as connectivity Bluetooth 3.0 . As expected in a terminal of its kind, do not forget the receiver GPS ( A-GPS ) with digital compass, and WiFi connectivity (b / g / n) and 3G ( HSDPA ).

If we go by the camera of Samsung Galaxy S, we find a modulus of 5 megapixels with autofocus, and the assessed ability to record 720p video at 30 frames per second. There will also typical features of the compact of the house as smile detection, panoramic images, etc.. The front panel features a camera VGA for video calls.

The model will be available in two versions that differ by the capacity of internal memory, 8 or 16GB, you can also use microSD memory cards up to 32GB. The battery is 1500mAh, has FM radio, and there are the typical and motion sensors, proximity and ambient light.

We will know in a video just released people Phonescoop, although being processed for better quality, we can see the appearance of the terminal and its operation:

We seem to have a tough contender to Google Nexus One and HTC Desire, among others, but for screen size I think his main opponent will be the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10. No word on price or release date, but have reported that the first destinations of Samsung Galaxy S are the markets of Europe, North America, Latin America, Australia and Asia.
