Apple iPhone 4S And Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II - A Comparison Review

With the exception of screen size - Samsung superAMOLED Plus touch screen is slightly larger than the iPhone 4S, but not much - they are for all intents and purposes the same piece of hardware. For example, Samsung uses dual-core 1GHz processor with software that is optimized to take advantage of each processor, while the iPhone 4S has the same style of Apple-centric dual-core processor whose operating system software is optimized as well.

Indeed, the systems are so close that Apple decided to go to court to try and command the Samsung from using the technology developed for the I9100 Galaxy II. The case is still pending, so that a decision yet. For example, both can be used by at least 32 GB of memory, so there is plenty of storage space available for play lists and other items such as calendars and lists.

is a key difference, though the software, not hardware razini.Samsung uses the Android 3.1 operating system to run your applications, while the Apple iPhone 4S you sit on your iOS fifth While Android may claim up to 300,000 applications developed for the Google-backed software, Apple makes the claim that the IOS has about 500,000 applications developed for the system.

Where the Samsung has a distinct advantage over the iPhone is that any app developed for the Galaxy II is free and you must go to Apple's App Store and purchase applications that you need. This is nothing new in the Apple-centric world that is used to pay for ringtones, applications, and other upgrades. Apple has had its iTunes store for some time, because he had his App Store as well. And Apple iTools has one branch in the store as well.

If you are accustomed to life in the Apple store-driven world, then it is not a shocker, but if you're coming out of Apple and Samsung a free, then you will find that there is a universe of applications software out there that does not cost anything to buy. Your just download the application, install it and you're off.

Perhaps the biggest difference - one that does not put the iPhone in front of the 4S and the Samsung Galaxy - Apple Siri personal assistant software. In looking at it closely, you will find that your iPhone does not give the right to exercise the majority of the applications installed in the phone involved in making the work of Siri.

For example, Siri is a voice-driven. In other words, if you say something to do, because not only will respond to you, but you, but when the demand is realized, Siri will publish it. It's not all, though, Siri offers you the ability to turn spoken words into text, which is nice work. And, it will go to set up your calendar, remember your to-do list, if you have it programmed in advance and more.

In other words, Siri is indeed a true analog to digital administrative assistant, and all are located in your iPhone 4S.

This is not to say that they will spread like a piece of software applications available for the Galaxy, because among 200000-300000 - and growing - number of applications available, there are bound to get text to speech, text to calendars, and more accessible. This is just to have an umbrella piece of software on them.

As for the rest of the differences between the iPhone and Samsung 4S, and will have to use a micrometer to find any real difference. Screen resolutions are about the same as the camera resolution and 1080p native high-definition native resolution is the same on both phones.

The key difference is the "personal assistant" Siri. This is a big but, as stated, who knows how long it will be before someone finds a way similar to an assistant for Samsung.
