Apple has been creating waves in the Smartphone industry ever since it introduced the latest iPhone 4S in the market. The phone garnered in immense response from around the globe and has broken all records in terms of sales and bookings for any mobile phone in history.
However Apple’s main rival Samsung did not want to sit idle and watch as Apple gulp a majority share in the premium smartphone market. The company came out with the Galaxy Note to compete against the iPhone 4S and today we check out how these two fares when they have a face to face duel.
On the display front it is definitely the Galaxy Note that has the better of the competition as it boasts of a humongous 5.3 inch full touch screen display that is capacitive in nature as compared to the 3.5 inches of the iPhone 4S.
The Note also has a Super AMOLED screen that is much brighter and sharper than the LCD screen of iPhone 4S. The Galaxy also offers more powerful resolution as compared to the iPhone. However in terms of looks, the iPhone 4S is definitely the charmer as it is almost half the size of the Galaxy Note and is lighter by a large margin.
Apart from the size proportion, the other features turn the tides in favour of the Galaxy in a lot more ways than one. It packs in a powerful 1.4 GHz processor and a large 1GB of RAM to offer superlative performance standards. The iPhone does not lag in performance but is equipped with a smaller 800 MHz processor and comes with an onboard 512 MB of RAM. The Note is powered by the Android Gingerbread OS whereas the iPhone is powered by the all new iOS 5 which is needless to say, one of the most advanced OS in the planet. So that is definitely a plus point for the iPhone.
On the camera front, both the phones offer powerful 8 mega pixel cameras that offer 1080p high definition video recording and as such there is pretty much nothing to separate them apart.
If you consider the application support, then it will be difficult for anyone to judge the best as both the android market as well as the Apple App store offer tons of applications that are both free and paid in nature. However apps in the Apple App store are less prone to malicious content as they are strictly censored and tested by Apple before being put up for download in the app store.
The Galaxy Note offers more stand by time whereas the Apple iPhone 4S offers more talk time. Connectivity and internet options abound in both and include, high speed 3G access, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, USB, HDMI, GPS and AGPS.
The Galaxy Note is definitely the economical choice of the two as it comes with a price tag of Rs 29,999 whereas the Apple iPhone 4S 16 GB version starts retailing from around Rs 42000 making it an exorbitantly priced choice.
So for the time being we can judge that the Galaxy Note is a far more economical choice as compared to the iPhone 4S, but as Apple says “ If you don’t have an iPhone, well you don’t have an iPhone”.
