Galaxy S2 vs Iphone S4 Who's the Best?
The technology world has enabled all of us the luxury of having the latest and fastest abled new products imaginable. I have chosen to evaluate two of the more popular, and expensive products out there competing for your attention. In the red coroner standing at a super slim 8.5mm is the Android phone Galaxy S2, vs. the supercharged Apple that fell out of the tree iPhone 4s weighting in at a heftier 9.3mm in the blue corner. Ding, let’s get it on!!!
I’m pretty sure we have all heard the saying, “Bigger is better" well, in this case it may be true; the GS2 has a whopping 4 inch Gorilla plated display only a mother could love. The adorable 3.5 inch the iPhone 4s has to offer has the better display in color and manageability. This round is a draw, size over appearance is always a personal preference. Ding!!
Round two gives a chance to see whats under the hood. The GS2 Samsung Exynos 1.2GHz or Snapdragon Qualcamm 1.5 GHz dual-core processor is no slouch, and has more than sufficient power to do all that is needed and make it feel effortless. Speed kills, but you die with a smile in this case! The iPhone 4s is fired by a dual core A5 chip, which also has dual core graphics capabilities, that’s a x2 times faster CPU than the original iPhone 4. This round ends in a draw again but a few more punches were landed by the iPhone 4s.
Round three will be the final and resolving round. This is a barn burner; there are a lot of close run categories here and some small victories that perhaps don’t quite matter as much as others. The conclusion comes down to your preference overall. Both of these outstanding products will be on top of the heap for at least a few weeks. The real winners are all of us who inspire the companies to compete for our

    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.

    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.…

    Recently I took to exploring the world of how smartphones, particularly the iPhone is manufactured and to what lengths western societies will go to get one when it is unveiled as the ‘new and improved’ version from six-months ago. While I do own an iPhone among other Apple devices such as the iPad, I did not put much thought into the ‘behind the scenes’ (Berger, 7) of how these coveted devices became manufactured and ultimately arrive on our shores.…

    Othman Aldhfeeri 2/20/2013 English 091 Jordan Case/Effect Paragraph Apple makes among the best phones in the world. The iPhone is their flagship product and it outpaces sales among everything they offer. Apple is at the forefront of the newest technology. The iPhone uses the state-of-the-art designs, such as touch screens and aluminum casing. The main industrial designer, Jonathan Ives, is famous for his concept of how it should look, function, and feel. Ives is a world renowned designer and his input took the iPhone to a completely unseen place that smart phones had never seen before. Apple’s use of such a great designer demonstrates that they will spare no expense to making a great phone. Additionally, the processing units (dual core, ARM A6) that come in the iPhone are incredibly fast. They are always releasing the fastest phone, while other competitors only release faster units months after the newest iPhone release. This demonstrates that other companies are simply trying desperately hard to keep up with the iPhone. The iPhone is the most widely used and widely recognized phone in the world. Everyone I know uses an iPhone and everywhere I go, I see people carrying one. It’s so hard to believe that only 4 years ago, Blackberry dominated the market. Now if we examine every age group and every ethnicity, almost everyone has the iPhone. Children who have not yet reached high school and the elderly, as well as everyone in between seems to have an iPhone. Even back home in Kuwait, the iPhone is second to none in popularity. Its widespread reputation can be seen in Apple’s sales revenue, as it is the most profitable company in the world at the moment. The phones are reasonably also priced. Comparing the price of this phone to that of the next best competitor, the Samsung Galexy, the prices are almost the same. In fact, among all data-driven phones, the iPhone seems to have the most standard pricing in terms of what comes with a contract. So even on a level playing…

    The thin, sleek design of the iPhone 6 make it convenient to use at home and on the go. The phone is 6.9 mm. wide with the screen being 4.7 in. long. The iPhone 4S is much shorter and wider when compared to the iPhone 6. The size and shape are one of the main exterior components that help aid is easier capability. The distinguished camera quality is an exciting improvement to the overall hardware of the device. The aperture at f/2.2 and the pixels at 1.5 make the lens sharper and more focal than ever before. The iPhone 4S, though not severely lacking in camera quality, is clearly not as professional as the iPhone 6. The new time-lapse and slo-mo features on the video display create even more fun and engaging opportunities as well. The enormous memory storage capability the iPhone 6 is able to generate is beneficial to her cause because, since she is an “Honor Roll” student, she is in need of various “educational” and organizational apps that help her with classwork/homework, as well as provide sufficient photo and music storage. The iPhone 6 holds up to 128GB for a low price of $399, along with…
