Samsung fires shots at Apple’s iPhone 4S with Galaxy S II comparison chart

No memory limitations is a lie. The phone will only support a card SO big. Probably a 64gb. If there is a 128gb micro SD, it probably won’t support it.

I would love for apple fanboys to get into a 2 year agreement with a 3G phone when companies like Verizon have covered over half the country with 4G LTE within a few
months..

I think we can look at it this way.  If the SGII was running iOS it would run it better than the iphone would.  If the iphone were running android it would be terrible.

There is one missing column — “made of cheap thin plastic”.  Samsung Yes; Apple No.

Well how do you feel now Samsung? RIP Steve

I believe that Android only supports up to 32gb cards.

The comparison shows the iPhone 4S requiring iTunes for syncing which is incorrect.  You can sync wirelessly via iCloud now as well.

Probably the biggest flaw though is that the GS2 uses Android. I’m sick of Android and these comparison charts won’t change my mind.

Hehe….actually i think it will go other way round…from 4S column…its more impressive then G2. Resolution, camera button, size…looks more practical aspects which G2 missed.

Good chart

But can we come back and compare Number Sold in 12 months time

LOL…. is this grid supposed to make S II better than iPhone 4S?
Damn!
Besides, iPhone 4S can sync over the web now to iCloud. So the grid needs to be updated.

This cracks me up. The iPhone will outsell the Galaxy ten to one and more people will switch from Samsung to Apple than the other way around.

Specs =/= real use. 
I’ve never liked the funny signal processing Samsung does, the audio usually sounds weird. Say what you will, the iPhone touch response has always beaten any Android phone I’ve used.

You’re right, at the end of the day its personal preference.   Have you used the Super AMOLED Plus display? If you haven’t used the GSII then you’re segregating these screens into a retina vs everything else.  You may be generalizing AMOLED displays into a one hat department.  There’s a huge difference between the super AMOLED and the super AMOLED plus.  Its not quite as simple as ‘stretching a smaller resolution over a larger screen’.   

The super amo plus contains 50% more sub pixels per pixel. There’s plenty of info out there.  ( I had a link but bgr sucks when it comes to that…)

There are qHD phones (not retina) that appear more pixelated than the the super amo plus regardless of the larger screen size.

But yeah, personal preference I guess.  You have to understand the sheer number of people that come on these sites and claim “retina is da best cuz it has the most pixels’ that’s akin to saying that an 8 megapixel camera on a smart phone is better than a 5 megapixel camera on any actual digital camera. Its a rubbish argument.  

Fair enough.  I don’t know how plans work in Canada.  I’m personally on unlimited data so its not really an issue.  I’m also in range of wifi almost everywhere I go.  (which sounds really sad when I type it.) I live in a major metropolitan area.  Streaming content is the direction everything is going.  Amazon, Google’s cloud services. etc.  I sincerely doubt Apple decided to gimp their cloud service in light of concern over the end user’s data plan.  I see it as a move driven by capitalism and shareholder as opposed to genuine progress.  

They forgot something on this chart.. OS Galaxy S – rubbish iPhone 4S – iOS 5

Why even bother if they are actually releasing the Prime next week?  A little concerning…

Im pretty sure you can use the iphone as a hdtv remote control, i got a samsung 46″ led and I’ve been using it since day one. Check your sources PAL!

Am I missing something? Where is the “Dedicated Outer Camera Button” on iPhone 4S?

Well there you have it Apple fanboys. The numbers don’t lie. There is NOTHING ahead of its time about the iPhone 4S. In fact, I would dare to say (with no disrespect to the late Steve Jobs), that the release of the iPhone 4S is an ironic death to the vision and brand that Apple has fought so hard to become. (well a lot of this demise on the horizon has to do with the fanboys and fangirls as well, who mostly make no use of ANY real features packed into any smartphone brand.)

The industry standard at the moment for screen sizes is an amazing 4 inches of actual touchscreen space…This was once considered too large for a smartphone by even the opinionated staff with BGR when reviewing the original Motorola Droid X and T-Mobile Nexus smartphones. (and lets not mention the 5 inch bohemouth from Dell)

And another real feature is the fact that the memory is upgradable and exchangable. Lets be realistic. How many people really use over 15 gb’s of memory on their phones??? Well, isn’t it a really big perk that you can remove the memory card and replace it with another in the event that you happen to exceed the memory??? And least not forget that ALL (I repeat… ALL) smartphones at somepoint or another have loading issues, errors during powering up and powering down, and definitely OS loading issues that require a “hard powering” or “hard cycling” (In fact, almost everyone I know of with an iPhone has had to visit the local Apple store to address the iOS system glitch… while Android and Window smartphone users I know simply “remove” the battery and place it back, turn on the phone then… voila… instantly the phone works properly again…

Its time to tell it like it is…. Apple is now as it has ALWAYS been… a Niche product.. meaning its offerings are not really needed or beneficial to a user, the price is outrageous and limits only a select few to own its products, and lastly experience the same problems and errors as their competitors, but never seem to be on the same advancement level as their competitors. This is the fate of Apple.. and with Steve Jobs passing recently, I HIGHLY doubt that any new “innovations” will come from Apple anytime soon. (Lets face it, Apples innovations are mostly from real inventors that they happen to come across and purchase the patents from quickly.. or in a case like the iPhone 4, just steal the ideal from an overseas competitor and pose it as “original”… aka LG Prada which was release 6 months before the iPhone 2/2006.. meanwhile iPhone 4 was released 6/2010…)

Why is “Latest version of Gingerbread”, highlighted in blue? I haven’t used either operating system, but I don’t believe you can objectively say one is better than the other.

Lol, the iPhone has a dedicated camera button yet samsung thinks that having a dedicated button is a bad thing. If samsung thinks that they should make all the dedicated cameras have no shooting button.
This chart is a joke , some of the comparisons were poor and they didn’t list features of both phones. Just the gs2.
To be a correct comparison all the features of the iPhone and all the feature of the gs2 should be added

Fanboys are all single minded idiots which are blinded by buyer regret

Talk about comparing Apples to Oranges… and pears…

Preferred 2 to 1 over displays that don’t compare to retina displays. Lower resolution is better?

Don’t get me wrong I’d take a SGX2 over an Iphone anyday, but that’s got to be the worst side by side comparison they could come up with.

Oh and how much money is Vlingo spending to ensure they get used so much more than the native Google Voice which works better anyway???
