Dear Consumer Reports:

Imagine your life without the iPhone 4S. You would have many inconveniences and troubles. You would have battery shortages on your cell phone and you would carry unnecessary weight with you. My name is Matthew Wong. I believe that the iPhone 4s is better than the Samsung Galaxy S II. If you’re new to the “smartphone” world, you may not know which smartphone to choose. Is it Apple’s iPhone 4s, which seems like a good choice to everybody, or Samsung’s Galaxy S II? The Apple 's iPhone 4S is obviously the right choice because it has an elegant design, a razor-sharp resolution, and is more portable compared to the Samsung Galaxy S II.

First, the iPhone 4S has an elegant and stylish design, with longer battery life. It has bigger buttons, and a better home button which makes it easier to operate. Here is a complaint from Samsung Galaxy S II, an article by Android Devices, written by Ed Hardy, about the misleading home button in Galaxy. "I have a Samsung Galaxy S II. When I press the home button, I am taken to a page that is not the home page. It is a page with the time/date, weather, sound button...I want to remove it and return back to my original home page." In contrast, the iPhone 's home button leads you right to the home page, so convenient and easy to use. In addition, in Samsung Galaxy S II, published on Jan. 22, 2012, an article by Frustrated, quotes again that iPhone 4S is better than the Samsung Galaxy S II. “A couple weeks after I got the S II, I took it back to the Sprint store because it gets extremely hot and the battery dies quickly...” Clearly, The iPhone 4S is more superior to Samsung Galaxy S II with better look and design.

With the iPhone 4S having a razor sharp resolution, one can see great outdoors and indoors. According to Samsung, it says that their phones now have Super AMOLED screens. In the article Galaxy S: A New Era In AMOLED Technology,

    Apple is continually on the cutting edge of technological advances in the cellular phone industry with better innovations to their products. The iPhone 5S® is the most recent technological advancement to the iPhone® with an improved camera, a next-gen CPU and motion tracking chip, and fingerprint sensors. Major drawbacks are that it still has the four inch screen like the original iPhones®, the fingerprint sensor only works with Apple applications at this time, the 64 bit A7 processor and the M7 motion-tracking chips do not have any “killer apps” yet, and the iOS 7 may boggle the minds of longtime iPhone users; the iPhone 5S is by far the fastest and most technologically advanced of the Apple SmartPhones® to date.

    In what follows, we will present a qualitative comparison of the Apple IPhone to the Blackberry Storm. Blackberry has been around the game longer than the IPhone has been out, but Apple took a bigger leap in business introducing the IPhone. The IPhone was a big target to put Blackberry down; the IPhone with a 3.5 inch screen, 640 x 960 pixels resolution and capacitive, multi touch screen was no match for Blackberry’s 3.25 inch display, 360 x 480 pixels, and only a capacitive touchscreen. The IPhone one upped the classy Blackberry Storm in every category that is out there. Being a both RIM Blackberry user and a current Iphone user, I must say that there is a big difference switching devices. Blackberry demographics are to business men, while the Iphone is also to business but also traits for kids. The pros of the IPhone are its sleek creative design, fast response, App world, camera in front of the phone, and better memory. Cons of the IPhone are the battery life doesn’t last so long when talking on phone and using a lot of applications. Blackberry Bold has a great battery life, but for a kid is pretty boring. Twitter, Facebook, text, and phone calls are mostly the only thing you can do while operating a Blackberry.…

    The Samsung Galaxy S4 is bigger in size, has a resolution advantage and better contrast.The iphone’s 4-inch LCD is very small compared to the S4’s 5-inch Super AMOLED display. The S4 would make things easier to read without the need to zoom in. In addition, watching movies and video clips are more immersive on the S4. The S4 is also better than the iPhone 5s in terms of resolution, offering 1920 x 1080 pixels or 441 pixels per inch. The iPhone 5s offers a fairly sharp picture at 1136 x 640 pixels, the S4 with 326 pixels per inch.The thing that is better than the S4 when it comes to display is the brightness. When viewed outdoors, the S4’s display was harder to read, especially in direct sunlight. The iPhone 5′s image was brighter with a cooler color cast. Even though the iPhone 5s’ screen is easier to read outdoors, the Galaxy S4’s display wins because of its size and resolution advantage, as well as its better contrast.…

    The iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S4 are identical in a number of ways. To begin with, both phones are smartphones. Smartphones are all touchscreen; if the phone is not touchscreen then it is not considered a smartphone. In addition, all smartphones must have a data package bought with the phone; both of these smartphones are run on a 4G LTE data speed. Also smartphones are usually bought with a carrier to hold a contract for the phone; the two of these smartphones are available at all carrier stores.

    Every student with an on-campus housing contract at the Pennsylvania State University also purchases a meal plan. The money deposited into this account is most often used to eat at the buffet service in the dining commons. Penn State Housing and Food Services works to provide a wide array of eating options for all students, including vegan, vegetarian and kosher items. However, the needs of students with severe food allergies and intolerances are underrepresented in the dining commons. The labeling above each dish includes only a minimal amount of information: the name of the dish, serving size, caloric content, and meatless or vegan status. While students can ask workers of the commons if a particular dish contains a particular allergen, the servers may not be fully aware of potential cross contaminants. Upon inquiring further, a manager of West Dining Commons reported that the full nutrition facts and ingredients list for each dish on the daily menu are available online at www.hfs.psu.edu/foodpro. Also, if requested, a student nutrition assistant can provide advice on food options in the dining commons. However, with the prevalence of food allergies and rushed dining schedules throughout the student body, these options are inconvenient. A more easily accessible method of…

    Evaluation of Cell Phones

    A good cell phone maintains great service and is very reliable. Service is a must because the primary reason for having a cell phone is being able to keep in contact with others at all times. The iPhone has great service due to its capability of having 3G, 4G, and LTE service all at once. Other phones are usually not nearly as advanced and can only have service speeds of up to 4G. IPhones are known for their dependability because Apple is easily one of the smartest and most valued companies to feature cell phones. Another great reason the iPhone is reliable is because of how the phone has grown in the past several years. The iPhone is now on its 5th generational model, excluding the amped up versions such as the S or C, and doesn’t have any of the problems the previous may have.…

    Having personal experience with the iPhone I can say that it is nothing short of amazing. The practically flawless setup and arrangement of features makes everything fast and easy.

However, alongside these basic smart phone applications, the iPhone is also an alarm clock, calendar, MP3 player, gaming device and so much more.

    For example, your son is on a trip in Europe for months and you can’t wait to see him. It’s killing you that all you can do is hear his voice. With Facetime, one of iPhone’s main gadgets, Mom can finally have a face to face chat with her missed son. In general, the device makes getting in touch with the people you care about much easier. Mostly every social network web is accessible through the iPhone. Plus, buying a new GPS, a camera, and carrying around an MP3 can be very worrisome. You could easily misplace your average MP3 or brake an expensive camera. Why spend hundreds of dollars on these equipment when all you need to buy and carry is one device? Why waste gas money to go pick up a pizza or go to the bank, when you can make those transactions through your phone? The iPhone saves time and best of all, money! With calendars, agenda apps, alarm clock and weather apps, these tools can help you organize your day and future plans. With the new iPhone 4S, the new Seri software enables you to “tell” your phone what to do, instead of having to find the button for your task. It’s your own personal slave robot in your control. On the flip side, people can easily disregard the negative effects of how this I-can-do-everything device may be changing the way out brain…
