Samsung I9000 Galaxy S vs. Apple iPhone 4: Collision course

06 August 2010
It’s not like you’re out of options. Here’s one. Another one would be to get a friend’s iPhone 4 and another friend’s Galaxy S, put them on a table, close your eyes and… tell your friends to bugger off. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way. Flip a what...

    >>>>Yeah sure. That's why more people buy the ip4 than your galaxy :)

    By that logic, the Mac is a terrible product compared to Windows. Are you willing to concede that point?

      Do you know what dumb is? It is when you compare a low priced nokia model unit sales number to the unit sales of a high priced device like the iphone. Now that's dumb :)

          Customer support should definitely have been a criterium.

          Also, congrats on being the first website to prefer the galaxy S videocamera and music player to the ones on an iphone 4.

            Such sound logic. If lots of people buy something, it must be the best. Ever wonder how there are so many idiots in this world compared to sensible people. If some thing is bought in large volumes, it simply means that their the target audience are idiots and technology noobs or that the product is cheap/vfm. All of Apple's false advertising is geared towards enticing idiots and noobs and iphone is clearly not cheap or vfm.

            Even if we for a moment think that your sound logic is indeed sound, Nokia sold more than 150 Million Nokia 3310's and that is a single model we are talking about. There are still many cheap ass phones from Nokia that sell in more numbers than iPhone. So according to your sound logic that must imply that all these phones are better than IPhone.

The BEST statement ever! :) This is one of the things people should be careful at.If I pay for something I DO WHATEVER I WANT WITH IT! I pay a lot of money for a phone to be MY PROPERTY! I don't pay a lot of money to RENT it! SO no limitations should be applied to it!

                                  I don't know what the problem is, try both phones and choose the one that you like the best. I personally prefer the iPhone but that's just because I like Apple hardware, if you don't then don't buy one. But don't sit here on forums looking for a place to winge about a device that you are never going to buy.

                                  I've tried a Galaxy S before I got the iPhone 4 and it was a very nice phone, felt cheap but was a nice phone. The only thing that let it down was the Android software.

                                        I just finished comparing both units yesterday. I had the luxury of using both for 8 days, courtesy of a mobile seller-friend, who allowed me to try his products before i make a decision of which to buy. My personal choice now is Samsung's Galaxy S. It's an amazing phone. iP4 isn't a good match; why does it need to be jailbroken just to make it a better phone. Pure silliness indeed!
