But the ip4 does have more better features and quality than galaxy. The only edge I could see with galaxy over ip4 is contrast and viewing angles, snappier browsing on wifi, and external memory card. That's it. The rest, ip4 is better. The ip4 has the better display overall, faster browsing on 3g, better apps store, bigger internal memory, better design, still the best touchscreen, still the best music player, better maps/navigation app, better os, better camera overall, better videocalling implementation eventhough limited, etc.

Regarding the music player, how many things have Galaxy S docks?
How many things have iPod/iPhone docks?
They are everywhere from alarm clocks to cars.
GPS on the galaxy S is flawed it doesn't show your true position, it's out by around 100 meters.

Everyone will have an opinion which screen is better - SuperAMOLED or Retina. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, but the bottom line is BOTH are good as each other. It kinda reminds me of Plasma v LCD. Some will say Plasma some will go with LCD. To the thick haters who are clearly convinced one is better just because they hate the other phone, you need to think properly! And IMO this review is biased towards the Galaxy S. GSMArena have lately become iPhone bashers, I'd like to see a comparison over these 2 great phones by a panel of NON BIASED reviewers. Yeah I agree the Galaxy S excels in certain areas over the iPhone, however certain points re Safari, music, apps, made me think the review is totally done by an iPhone hater!

Where did you get that rubbish from? I have almost 40 albums on my iPhone 3GS all of them FREE personal ones, easily transferred onto the iPhone via iTunes. iTunes simply converted them and saved them. The same applies for movies. I converted them using a free conversion tool and copied it onto iTunes! Yeah I've paid for a few apps but what's wrong with that? People make out iTunes is difficult but it's super easy! So please do research before stating incorrect facts!!!!!

Well as we can see that both the phones are very competitive and good. I read few comments by some ppl and saw that iphone lovers can't digest the fact that NON-APPLE company can make good/better phones than iPhone. Truly, what I believe is that may be in certain areas iPhone clearly is a leader, but than it has its own set of problems that cannot be over-looked. Price, Controlled ONLY via iTunes, data transfer not user friendly and the latest "signal" issue. Its non-compatibility with non apple phone etc..etc...
On the other hand Samsung has its own set of issues, but than its more friendly with its enviornment and is not making any fuss to get connected with other phones. Its easy to transfer day in and out of phone and still you can use it. Like transfering music, videos, etc. One doesn't need special software to do that ("iTune" in case of iPhone). Anything that you download from the net can be directly transfered to the phone and can be USED which iphone will never do. Apple is making big money through iTunes by making consumer buy almost everything...!!! Secondly unlocked Samsung phone is way too cheaper than iPhone and if you jailbreak iPhone there are other complimentry issues like upgrades or probably anytime getting caught and making the phone a BRICK if it crashes....
Anways, as GSM Arena said, its all personal now...! Both phones are good and it would be purely a matter of taste and usage habits that would make them happy.

i guess the best that he can do is watch a youtube video and it is already observable how superamoled kicks retina's as* bigtime... retina is dull. and that is only going to be obvious if you see both w/ your own eyes.

When I say that the iphone is dead... I mean that a phone that is locked on everething need a jailbreak to work. Jail??? Who buy an iphone is like in JAIL!! Iphone fans, how do you accept that??? Just because the design? Oh, everery body is looking to my iphone!! And so what??? A real SMARTphone is FREE!!! It's time to iphone accept that the freedomless of the user's choice make the iphone a DUMBphone. Sad, but true!!! Galaxy S arrived to show the real mean of SMARTphone.
