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

Samsung I9000 Galaxy S vs. Apple iPhone 4: Collision course - read the full textIt’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...

Clearly Galaxy S is much superior than iCrap 4. Only the loyalty of iFan mindless zombies that make iCrap 4 still live today.

Apple is certainly the most arrogant and meanest co. out there.They're just bothered about selling faulty iphones to people.Samsung is a versatile co.making good products.Wait till september,with the upgrade the GALAXY S is gonna kick iphone's *ss.

actually iPhone is much classier than Galaxy S and it lose point because of apple limitations. Without antenna problem iPhone 4 kicks Galaxy S in the S on every area. All other OS's looks like iOS copy and i hate that crappy TouchWiz interface.

GSMARENA please do not handle iPhone without AppStore because all you wanna do with your phone is in there.

Iphone= Apps < Android= Programs! ;P

Haven't found limitations on my galaxy yet, installed 100mb apks and some with loose sd files on it without a sweat.

oh please.. gsmarena didn't even post ui comparison 'cause it's so obvious samsung got their ui from apple. seriously, even the camera and music player is the EXACT copy from iphone with extremely slight changes. and god! the menu is such a clone of iphone! the way it has 4 icons on the bottom and scrollable on top of it. even the design is a copy of 3gs in a stupid way. it's actually kinda disgusting. like a china phone.

Many complain about a bad gps reception of the galaxy S, but i've got plenty of luck with the standard maps navigation and sygic maps 10. A "fix" after several seconds, eventhough he could be 40M off ..

IPhone 4 9/10 et Galaxy S 8/10 for the applications.
Come on!
Samsung applications are not good at all.
We all know that GSM Arena is pro Samsung since a long time.
Since their tests proclaim that Samsung phones have good audio quality mp3 players. Simply not true.

"To all Apple fans":

Don't make a mistake that your master(S.Jobs)done earlier!
Do you remember the pre-launch PR of iPhone 4 that Jobs was hardly try to indirectly say(overall)Android phones are worthless specially those that one of the Korean companies that it's name starts with "S"(oh man!can you guess?keep it up!)and to be exact don't buy those with Super AMOLED(s)?!!do you?
not to mention he made ultra super smartphone from iPhone 4(that is far better than Samy's)and look what happened today;any article on earth about iPhone 4 contains receptions issues and lacks that these days you only see in under 70$ handsets(iTunes and no Card Slot are good examples).
These flaws,lacks or what ever was big enough to push Jobs to it's limits and one who 2 or 3 days earlier denied the truth and again and again finally admitted it but with conditions!!Nokia,Motorola,Samsung,LG,SonyEricss­on and if there was another big company in handset market it would be 6th victim of Apple's fault.
So...the lesson?
Whats done is done and there is nothing can do about it admit it and don't make few more S.Jobs(it's only one now and what was going to happen if jobs was twin?!!).
iPhone 4 is good device(great actually)but when someone claiming the best of the market it's a different story at least it must work the way that it should be.

...Cheers from Germany.
