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...

iPhone 4 is like watching a video of the best porn star. Samsung Galaxy S is like having sex with an average girl, she may not be the best porn star, but at least its practical.

Yeah, that's the spirit. Anything Android or S^3 has the power to miraculously attract experts who know what they are doing with software & fix things y'know - actually for the better, *cough* that's more than I can say for the Iphad's, *cough*, oops I must of mis-prounounced there ..um sorry! Shhh - "whispers quietly" be careful the iphans are like some occult gang, you don't want to mess in Steve Jobs little part of his umpire or things get double jeopardy, his little garden of eden where all the people & flowers are the same with the same scripted manner ..haha OK.

Upgraded from iPhone 3G to Samsung Galaxy S. Got all the downloaded .avi files on the phone, no converting and messing around. Faultless!

shut up it's not biased at all it shows that hype can only sell and not perform

this has been a FAIR match up and samsung obviously beat apple since they love to talk smack to everyone

What a biased review. Especially on the camera part. They tried so hard to focus on the ip4's camera weaknesses, and did not bother with taking pictures and videos in low light situations where galaxy would miserably fail, lol.

Also on their displays, over saturation of colors on the galaxy is less desirable than the natural looking colors on the ip4.

GSM Arena has been condemning the iphone4 and Apple. This biased review, althought trying to be subtle, is no surprise for me.

Hello GSMArena Team !

Thank you for pointing out the problem of frequency response with headphones attached on the Galaxy S.
Did you take a look at my thread on xda-developers forum ?

You'll find more analysis and a fix.

Just wait & see Iphans. Just wait & see what happens once N8 breaks free of it's chains & is let loose into the wild woods. Looks like we could see Total Knock-out N8 vs Iphone 4. I imagine democracy over royalty. Top trumpings Iphans, eat my shorts...! hehe

Yep. After reading that I have to agree, that we finally have our "iphone killer" as fanboys like to say. I don't like the whole media circus bashing of the iphone 4, and I have defended Apple in the past, but it's good to see touchscreen handsets finally trump Apple's, as it's only good for competition.

I do feel that the iphone's screen is better though.

As for this comments section. Bravo, less hate and more balanced opionions are welcome. Haters need not attempt to comment.

Bit of a no-brainer this one, and I haven't even read the review.

The Galaxy S probably wins.

Apple got 68/90 and SGS 78/90...but most shocking result is that apple got 4/10 in telephony category and it's supposed to be a phone after all, ha! And it only won in design and apps...underperforming, overpriced but looks pretty. Fact.
