First, it should be noted that the iPhone is already on the
market since September, which currently accounts for 6 months apart at the
release date of the two smartphones. It is true that we have been waiting for
iphone iphone 5S or 6 to compare with the Galaxy S4, but this time, the Galaxy
S4 have taken months. In any case, it must be said that Samsung has had ample
time to assess his opponent and to do better, to ensure a victory by knockout,
by surpassing all technical levels or absent in the matching. Thus, the balance
of power is unbalanced. This does not prevent us, however, to compare these two
great rivals as iphone 5 is the only serious competitor with an OS other than
Android.
iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4
At its launch, the iPhone 5 has been very strong, with its
4-inch screen and 4G LTE option, features that allowed him to stand out from
the competition. But the iPhone 5 is also distinguished with a new all-aluminum
design, and processor iOS 6, which has since received significant updates. Not
to mention the many features and applications ... All this has meant that the
iPhone 5 has successfully enthroned alongside the best smartphones in the world
for months.
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4| Price
As mentioned a little earlier, it is more than six months
that the iPhone 5 was released and it is still very expensive, indeed it
currently listening 679 Euros naked is the price that should apply to the Samsung
Galaxy S4 , except that we know that after six months, the price can fall and
not to mention any offers reimbursement charged by Samsung itself (just as is
the case for the Galaxy S3 or Galaxy Note 2)
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4|Design
The iPhone 5 is distinguished by its high quality design and
finish. This time, the combination of aluminum, glass and metal, because it is
still attractive for buyers who still feel just as attractive, even six months
after its release. The smartphone also features a 4-inch screen and 4G LTE, but
also reduced to 7.6 mm in size and weighs 112 grams. Allowing it to be one of
the finest and lightest smartphones available on the market.
The new design is also more durable than the glass back
plate of the iPhone 4S, and we can say that the iPhone 5 is resistant to
everyday use, even without cover or protection.

The side of the Samsung Galaxy S4, we always find plastic,
but with a polycarbonate material stronger, more durable and stronger compared
to the Galaxy S3 . The front panel also provides better protection against
bumps and scratches, especially with Gorilla Glass 3. As shown in the above
features, the Samsung Galaxy S4 offers a removable battery (which is not the
case of the iPhone 5), but also the ability to insert a MicroSD card. For cons,
the Smartphone is larger with its 5-inch screen, slightly thicker at 7.9 mm and
slightly heavier at 130 grams.
Accessory side, the iPhone 5 takes advantage of a variety of
products, perhaps because it is on the market long enough, unlike the Samsung
Galaxy S4. However, the Korean is confident and believes that accessories are
sure once the launch made in the image of other devices such as the Samsung
Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note currently enjoy a wide range of accessories and
especially should not forget that knows the list of 11 accessories will come up
with (or shortly after) the Galaxy S4,
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4 |Screen and Display
Side of the display, the Samsung Galaxy S4 outperforms
rival. Already impressed if the iPhone 5 in time with its 4-inch Retina
display, it will be swept away by the Samsung Galaxy S4 with its 5-inch screen
Super AMOLED. That said, many users do not like too large screens (this is not
my opinion, but hey, it takes all tastes).
An obstacle for the Samsung Galaxy S4 and its 5-inch screen?
Not necessarily, because it compensates well with higher resolution (1080p HD),
similar to that used by most HDTVs 55 inches. A resolution will be so
concentrated in a "small" 5-inch screen! One quickly imagine the
result is simply stunning. Galaxy-S4 vs iPhone 5 February
In addition, the Samsung Galaxy S4 also offers several
interesting features, like the ability to scroll without touching the screen
with the help of sensors. And this new technology allows the screen simply
brushing the finger to control the device, even using a glove. Not to mention
the "Air View" feature that allows a glimpse of the text messages,
emails, photos and videos. Note that the user can shake a hand on the screen to
answer a call, to scroll up and down a web page, and more. you can see all the
features on the Galaxy S4 from this folder.
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4 | Camera
Again, the Samsung Galaxy S4 outperforms iPhone 5 with its
13 megapixel camera, to mourn the 8 megapixel iPhone 5. The least we can say is
that the image quality offered by the Samsung Galaxy S4, both for photos videos
is simply outstanding.
Add to that the many features that enhance the photographic
experience even more, as the Eraser mode to remove objects or people that
appear in the photos accidentally, or Drama Shot which allows up to a few
hundred photos seconds, or the Shot & Sound, to combine image and
commenting on photos taken.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 also offers Dual Shot mode, allowing
the user to take both a photo or video with the camera facing the rear, while
remaining within the image captured by the front camera picture 2 megapixels.
Otherwise, one of the biggest changes proposed by the
Samsung Galaxy S4 is the ability to pause the video, simply by looking away
from the camera with the Smart Pause option. This technology also combines with
Eye Tracking function to scroll a web page or a photo at a glance ...
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4 |Specifications
As shown in the figures above (Table), the Samsung Galaxy S4
is particularly powerful with its Exynos processor 5Octa / Quad Core (8 cores)
1.9 GHz Snapdragon 600, next to the iPhone 5 and its dual-core Apple A6 .
Currently, we are not yet able to quantify the difference, but one thing is
sure, the Samsung Galaxy S4 is built to offer better performance.
Besides, we note the difference in autonomy. While the
iPhone 5 offers a good battery life even with 4G LTE and 4-inch screen. But the
Samsung Galaxy S4 was very good at offering a better battery, more importantly,
removable. Thus allowing the user to use a spare battery tenfold autonomy.
Another difference that pops right in the eyes, the iPhone 5
does not offer a MicroSD card slot, and does not offer the ability for users to
add more storage (outside cloud services). For cons, the Samsung Galaxy S4
supports a MicroSD card up to 64GB, which allows users to have more storage at
a lower cost. In this sense, it is quite possible that Samsung Galaxy S4 16 GB
with a microSD card for a total of 64 GB is cheaper than iPhone 5 64GB, which I
remind you is on the market for 6 months now.
Iphone 5 Vs Galaxy S4 |Software
Not surprisingly, we will tell you that for all the reasons
we have already mentioned in previous posts, Android is the best mobile
operating system that exists to this day (although this is only my opinion) and
since Galaxy S4 that runs on it, I find it best not to mention that the Galaxy
S4 has the latest version of Touchwiz which is filled with interesting features
pleasant interface.

Conclusion:
As might be expected, the iPhone 5 does not play at all in
the same league as the Galaxy S4, yet it costs the same price (or even more
expensive than the latter). Yes I know, you tell me that this is an unequal battle,
in the sense that the iPhone 5 is released before I answer that yes. But in
this case, why the iPhone 5 listening almost the same price as the Galaxy S4?
Also, if a person has 680 euros in his hands and she wants a phone at this
price, it is well known that for the price of an iPhone 5, it can be a better
smartphone that is the Galaxy S4. That is why we believe that this comparison
had to be made in order to show the difference between these two latest
smartphones giants?
