iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 face to face

Galaxy-s4-iPhone-5-04

Samsung's brand new launch, the Galaxy S4, has received criticism and praise, something that Apple is more than used to with its devices. It is evident that aesthetic changes are conspicuous by their absence, hardly anyone will be able to appreciate the slight increase in size to be able to distinguish between a Galaxy S3 and an S4. Samsung defends itself from those who criticize it, pointing out that they have wanted to focus the changes on the software section, leaving aside the design.

Martin Hajek has posted on his blog Some images in which we can see 3D models of the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S4 together, so we can get an idea of ​​the differences between the two devices. The 5-inch screen of the S4 next to the 4-inch of the iPhone 5. The Apple device seems even small next to the Samsung smartphone. The aluminum finish of the iPhone 5 versus the polycarbonate of the Galaxy S4. Which one do you prefer?

Galaxy-s4-iPhone-5-05

I always avoid comparisons between devices, especially when we are talking about the most advanced smartphones of the moment, each one has their tastes, their priorities and uses their device for different tasks. Personally I prefer the design of the iPhone 5, its metal finish seems impressive, but I have to admit that the Galaxy S4 is a precious terminal, not to mention its hardware that removes the hiccups, and the first impressions of those who have been able to test the terminal are very good, better than with the Galaxy S3, ensuring that despite looking identical, the S4 is better built.

What will Apple have in store for us for the next iPhone? Larger screen? Or will it do like Samsung giving more power to its terminal leaving the design unchanged and focusing on the software? It would not seem like a bad decision to me.

    Bigger screen no, by God! If the number 5 seems huge to me ... Not the shoemakers. The one of the 4S you move it perfectly with one finger. Big seems tacky and fashionable to me.

    1.    Particular said

      a fashion that the vast majority of people wear ... I don't know if we live in different worlds! but when apple finally realizes and takes out a bigger screen then we will not read this type of comments discrediting the rest!

    2.    Ivan Silva  said

      Hahaha, I'm sure that if the iPhone 6 has a 5 ′ screen you will run to buy it, you should avoid those comments.

    3.    Matin said

      Your comment seems perfect to me, my shoes don't make me bigger, even so, neither hardware can against design + software ...

    Well, as the line to be followed by Apple is to increase the size of the screen, also increasing the dimensions of the iPhone ... With me they have lost a client, that of course.

    What I want is a mobile phone, not a brick, and that's exactly what Samsung terminals look like to me. Another very different thing is that Apple brings out another terminal in the style of what it has done with the iPad Mini but the other way around, that is to say a kind of iPhone + xq surely the market would have. Of course, the latter without the iPhone + being the reference, that is, it was not in the SIII / SIII Mini style.

    From what I bet for the next iPhone and the next iOS 7, it is a renewal especially of the latter (apart of course from providing the iPhone with the latest technological developments) in terms of adopting fabulous tweak's from Cydia. The main one, at least in my opinion is Activator and then a SBSettings or NCSettings. Obviously there are many more and each one of us would include a few in the list; but I think that at least the two main ones would have to be those without any doubt.

      if you decided to change it is your decision .. it is not necessary that you publish it, animal .. ^^! .. If you like shoes .. what a chuleta with you .. hahaha .. Samsung will always be the shadow of apple .. I would not buy a large cell phone made of plastic .. and when it falls I can be completely disarmed .. how stupid you are !!

      1.    Talion said

        For how you write it is a cheek to tell another stupid. On the other hand, following your same logic, if you would not buy a plastic phone is your decision ... You do not need to publish it ...

        And if you put a cover on it ??? How great but you! Tell me then, why do you want such a nice metal finish if you are going to screw it up by putting a cover on it from the Chinese… .. you have to see people as they are! I have not yet seen any of my friends with their iphone unprotected, without a cover ...

      4.    Ivan Silva  said

        Haha, so closed mind, saying that Samsung lives in the shadow of Apple, if so, the S4 would not be giving much to talk about.

    It is clear that it is a David against Goliath never better said by the difference in size, but I am not very sure that this time David will win.

    1.    Dani323 said

      Yes…., The same was said with the S3 and the iPhone 5 and David won again…, as he always does

      1.    andres said

        Yes, although I do not think that the iPhone 5 came out to beat the S3, rather the S3 came out to beat the 4S and now the S4 came out to beat the iPhone 5, what I say is that Samsung takes out to try to beat the last Apple, Apple takes one out and Samsung wants to try to improve it, and that's what this battle is like. the same as the ipad, macbook air, imac, the clock, etc.

        2.    steve collons said

          For some time now, the one that seems to me to be behind is apple ... stuck in its iOS ... to get news and then it will silence mouths! it cannot always be in its closed OS style, there are more improvements to be made to make it more useful!

    When are you going to stop making absurd comparisons between iphones and galaxys? Is it that history has not already shown that Apple products, with their electronic architecture and software, achieve higher performance applications with less hardware?… .. »yes, 4 cores, what a camera with so many megapixels, yes, whistles, that if flutes ». Android is still light years away from IOS, even application programmers prefer it.

    1.    Antonio said

      If especially the camera ...
      loss of wifi coverage, 3g….
      if not count the numerous security flaws that anyone unlocks your mobile ...
      NEFASTO YEAR OF APPLE!
      Since Steve died I don't know what's going on through Diosssssss !!

    2.    Enrique said

      Cheer up guys! that iphone can still surprise ... which with the 5 did not convince me!

  5.   Christian Ulises Arce Soto said

    Apple has not changed the design of its terminal for a long time, I think it must already show a new design, likewise a big change in iOS and Hardware, is what we all ask for.

  6.   salomon said

    Yes, dirty pastries, as they say, and the iPhone, the first thing they do is put a dirty cover, one of those from the Chinese, which cost 1 euro, I have read something from a relog out there, sony, it has already with its brand new relog, 1 year at least, ahem, I don't know who is in tow of whom, the iPhone has been dead, since the 3G came out, which was the only one that really stood out, now they will take out the television, and they will say ohhhhhh, when everyone has and his television, we will never get an ipad mini, takeaaa ipad mini, in short, how many legs are out there.

  7.   Angel said

    I left a galaxy s2 to buy an iPhone 5 and I regretted it is a very closed system, I say it mainly through bluetooth, apple has too many adepts and that is what keeps it number 1, an example of fans is blackberry that despite Being a crap, in Venezuela it is number 1, Android is a better system because it is free and if it were a better IOS system they would not jailbreak the iPhones, pure fanaticism and nothing else.

    1.    freddy edward said

      What do you want Bluetooth for? To exchange pictures, to send music, if you don't have to pay for an internet plan, or you are still in school, yours is a Samsung. So that they search for each other by bluetooth with your classmates and friends !! Ajjaajja

      1.    for the ready on duty said

        Do you know that services such as whatsapp are capped and they do not send more than 10 megabytes? well x that for example integer

        1.    freddy edward said

          And the bluetooht would solve it, I did not know that you can send photos to kilometers away with the bluetooth, thanks for the information 😉

      2.    Ender Frias said

        You really asked "why do you want bluetooth?" what for!? It is the technology used to connect the telephone wirelessly with speakers, headphones, keyboards, mice, in addition to various telemetry devices for health such as scales, instruments for diabetics etc etc…. in addition to the basic functionality of sending files ...

        What do you want bluetooth for !? Please, you are a sheep, a joke, a joke, if you don't know what you're talking about, I don't know why you have the guts to attack in the most stupid and ridiculous way I've seen in a long time.

        So "Freddy" I recommend that you mature, read a little more, get informed and change your name to Alfredo.

        1.    freddy edward said

          You still don't answer the question. So far the bluetooth works for free hands, speakers etc. Except for transferring files, you cannot share your music. As you see the stupid you are. You don't like the iPhone because you can't send your gay photos? LOL. Adenas, I don't know what to do in an iphone forum if you are so miserable of mind. Like to like the samsung. As I told you, the iphone will not send you pictures or music, hahahaha it only serves for really necessary things, not for stupid things as a child, baby, send files you want. Mature !!

          1.    Ender said

            Exactly ... I read you and I laugh, he hoped that in a year or two you will read how you write, like this with "K" instead of writing well (which makes me not take you seriously) and you realize how immature you read. Greetings, I am not wasting my time replying another message to you «Freddy». Greetings from an apple, android and soon windows surface user.

            1.    freddy edward said

              Hahaha I write komo kiero, and what was your contribution? Criticize how I write, interesting ... You burned like a thousand neurons for that, you must have been mentally exhausted. Rest and greetings amigozoo !!

              1.    Carlos said

                zaaa… I just got you little lamb or fart learn to lose and accept that there are better cell phones, greetings!

        Your ignorance is great, Samsung is better than Apple a thousand times.

        1.    voyka said

          Samsun is good in televisions but in phones the samsung s4 is not there a lot of power but the ingadera locks in android and sometimes it restarts I say it because I have it and the materials not even say of very poor quality I will sell it and buy the iphone 5 IOS 100 percent reliable never hangs and the speed of opening applications is unsurpassed since it is a system dedicated to the hardware of the iPhone 5 and not like the Android, so you have 20 cores and 8 GB of ram, it will lock and it will restart either the s4 or any android there is no better phone than the iphone 5 in construction materials and operating system it will never lock or restart and it lasts more than 4 years NOT LIKE THE SAMSUNG THAT LAST YOU A YEAR AND THE FAMOUS DEATH STOP WORKING SUBITA. The iPhone is on another level and Samsung has a long way to go to reach that level, it takes more than adding cores or more ram or a bigger screen to keep up with Apple.

  8.   Alexander said

    The first comparison that they throw in the air is that one has a metal finish and the other in polycarbonate. Can someone do a study and undo once and for all and give us the percentage of cell phones that are used with covers and those that are not? What good is this or that termination if in the end you are going to put a missile-proof protector?

  9.   iPhonePro said

    This blog should change its name ... and be called currently SAMSUNG S4 because they only name this terminal in recent days .... already good comparisons and get things from iphone!

  10.   Fanatic said

    Truth be told, this s4 looks very good ... everyone has their own tastes that is clear in terms of its size! but getting such a fine terminal with that piece of screen in full hd does not impress me! It also seems more consistent and robust even than the s3 and the functionalities that have been presented such as the air touch (preview by only bringing the finger closer in emails, photos and videos) or the double camera and various shooting modes are really interesting…. After each one decides but it cannot be denied that these Koreans have gotten down to business and each year they release news! IPHONE may surprise us in the next one or we will see what happens with many of its followers ... since you cannot live your whole life with fluency seeing how the rest continues to evolve!

  11.   cristian said

    if the next iphone does not surprise me, sorry I buy an S4!

  12.   alexis31 said

    this is simple if you like appel you buy an iphone and if you like samsung you buy a samsung phone for color tastes I for example and tried both and I keep the iphone as simple a greeting and not to argue.

  13.   freddy edward said

    Samsung put an operator chip on your televisions and make your fans happy !! Please: p

    1.    Android at full throttle said

      Gentlemen of Apple make your iOS more free and customizable and make jailbreak fans happy !! Please!! xD hahahaha

      1.    freddy edward said

        Don't do it !! Otherwise it would be a phone for little girls! Let the best HACKERS do it, to give more importance to the device, and not be a cheap lady like Samsung. The android is so bad that the hackers don't even come close to it, they don't waste time !!

        1.    Guest said

          For your information, Android has modified OS that leaves iOS 6 lying in a corner.

          1.    freddy edward said

            I understand that for someone who only reaches for android, that is the maximum. So nothing to say, I invite you to know iOS, it is from a company with the logo of a little apple, it is little known I think, it is called apple, I hope you can look further friend. Greetings

            1.    Ender said

              The Galaxy S4 is more expensive than the iPhone5 in production and on sale (not that it is something that I like because both earn more than 200% per phone sold).

              But the fact that you mention superfluous things like the price and things that you can buy and others does not speak much about you.

              1.    freddy edward said

                Sip says that I like things of quality and that they are renamed, despite writing with "k" and in terms of costs, you are still right, for the same reason they contradict themselves saying that the iPhone is expensive and so on. And they pay even more for a Samsung, there is already a matter of taste.


              2.    esteban said

                keep the quality and your jailbreak! that's apple! wanting to fully enjoy a terminal having to put the jailbreak jajajaj I break


              3.    voyka said

                Samsung phones devalue more than iPhones in a year, the S4 will be worth less than the iPhone 5, right now they cost almost the same, I say this because a 5GB iPhone 64 is more expensive than a 4GB S64 and the HTC One

          hahaha I get sick with your comments…. hick!

        One of the things that makes iOS go faster and more fluid than Android is its less customizable and free integration, in the control of the whole lies its strength.

  14.   Ivan Silva  said

    If there is something that I have learned, it is that getting into arguments with an Apple Fanboy is wasting time, because they will never accept that there is a better phone than the iPhone, and they come up with stupid arguments that the 4 ′ screen is great because they handle the entire iPhone with one finger, hahaha. I have always been a fan of Apple, but you have to admit that there are better phones on the market, in the same way, I criticize a lot the stupid double standards of many of you, they come to say that the S4 is a «Zapatófono» that why 5 ″ Of display, when I am almost sure, that if they took out the iPhone 6 with a 5 ′ screen they would go to buy it running.
    I have had the vast majority of iPhones, and if I decided to switch to Android, it was because they have greatly improved the quality of their products and because I really like large screens on mobile phones, to take advantage of all the capabilities, I currently have a S3 and I am comfortable with it, and I decided not to switch to Apple again, until they take out a minimum mobile with a 4.7 ′ screen, the quality of the materials used in Apple are unsurpassed, it is very true, but what do I want? a Gold or Carbon Fiber phone, if it doesn't bring a respectable screen?

  15.   jerry said

    Samsung always says in theory 2 cores, 4 cores, but if you have an iphone 5 and a sansung galaxy s3 like me, you will know that apple with a processor with only two cores makes Samsung a fool. iPhone 5 is much faster. I say this because I have both. I also think that people are idiots. it only gets carried away by what is written. samsung says 4 nucles. And already people are saying, Uyh I buy it. but the iphone is faster and powerful in everything. throughout. Apple can perfectly say that it has an 8-core processor. there is if they would buy it. please I have a samsung galaxy s3 and an iphone 5 and without a doubt he is the perfect person to give an opinion. I stay 1 million times with the iphone.

    1.    android said

      speed?? if the android is more and more fluid…. if you have such a well-equipped system… it's a matter of taste! I do not change an android for anything in the world!

    2.    voyka said

      to egg even if you have 20 cores and 16 gb of ram but the ingadera has android at some point it will lock or restart

  17.   josago said

    It is true that the two terminals are excellent and you cannot detract from either one, nowadays you should be guided by what you like (a large or a small screen) I am a fan of Apple and I keep my iPhone 5, but I find it inconsiderate to compare the Galaxy S4 with the iPhone 5 since they are not of the same generation. Open to wait for the next apple terminal and there if better comparisons can be made

    CLEAR IOS MOVES BETTER ASUS MAPS WITH 2 CORES, YOU DO NOT NEED ANY MORE TO LOSE YOURSELF IN THE FOREST

  19.   Barbican said

    I don't know what it costs in your country but in Spain the iPhone 30 is 5 euros cheaper than the Samsung 4 and the quality of materials and finishes is better in the iPhone

      to bring the s4 you already need a bag like the old woman ha ha ha

  20.   mimingm said

    It seems amazing to me, the comparisons made between iPhone 5 and Samsung, it is clear that they are different phones, and that the finish of the iPhone is more collected and more attractive, but what I do know is that Apple has already screwed it up twice When it took out the 4 to many people it gave coverage problems due to its infallible coverage system, with the 5 we are back to our old ways now it seems that the problem comes from the new software update, in which many clients are without service every little bit time because they lose coverage and 3g, while Samsung has not given any problem of any kind, I went from S3 to iPhone 5 because for work reasons it was better for me since I have a Mac and for file synchronization it was more comfortable but I am very sorry, I have had two different terminals for a month and we continue in the old ways so I turn to Samsung closing my eyes, even if it has a large screen, which for presentations is much more comfortable or since you do not need the tablet reducing devices. So to taste the colors, but iPhone is leaving a lot to be desired.

  21.   Jesus said

    The truth is, ... not that they go to eat poop. The iphone is for those who want a phone, let's say comfortable and colorful. The samsung for those who want absolute synchronization control and total control of the device without restrictions (you can do more with it) but not very comfortable in your pocket.

  22.   Armstrong said

    Well I think that both cell phones are the leaders in technology ... but the Galaxy S4 surpasses it by little ... but I think it would be better to wait for the iPhone 5S, every time a new Apple terminal comes out it takes the lead against Samsung ... and if Everyone who makes comparisons such as tecnofanatico, clipset, engadget or xakata realizes they prefer iPhone instead of Galaxy.

    If you like the plastic brick of the s4 then buy it you have to measure 2 meters in height and if you are short you will have a cure with that inche brick
