Apple iPhone 4S vs Samsung Galaxy S2

With all these new mobile phones coming out, it can be hard to keep up with all their features, and to actually deter which of them is the best. If you are going to buy one of them, they are very expensive, so you may as well get the best of the bunch right? Two phones at the moment are battling against one and other, the Apple iPhone 4S, and the Samsung Galaxy S2. To put it another way, the software which runs the smartphone also has to be reviewed: Apple vs Android. Here, we will try and consider which one has more to offer, and make an unbiased decision based upon features.

The Samsung Galaxy S2 offers many features, in fact, you could spend hours just finding out how they all work, and what they have to offer. The Samsung Galaxy S2 is built to 4.3" SUPER AMOLED Plus, so that its screen is totally readable, and leaves no strain upon your eyes. It features a slimmer design, which makes it super light and durable, easy to carry about, and has no weight to it. It also has a great battery life time, so you don't have to worry about plugging it in every few hours! ; The Apple iPhone 4S features many great functions too, it is lightweight, stylish, and has many upgrades from previous versions of the iPhone. You can use its voicing feature, which allows text messages to be read to you, making times when you can't look at your phone much easier on you. You can ask your iPhone question, and give it commands, and it will perform them, such as telling you the time, taking you to web pages, and much much more.

It is no secret of the legal battle between Samsung and Apple over alleged patent infringements which are immediately apparent and look more than coincidence, not to have been copied from the iPhone.

Smartphone Overal Quality Reviewed

• 4S Handset Quality. The iPhone 4 screen was prone to being cracked. If you were unfortunate to have ever dropped one, then it likely shattered. With a 3.5-inch Retina display, the 4S screen is slightly smaller.
• S2 Handset Quality. The Galaxy S2 screen is stronger, but the handset feels weak unlike the stalwart iPhone handset. The 4.3-inch 800x480 screen has less detail too.

Google Android 4.0 vs Apple iOS 5. Software and Apps have to be the deciding factor and with more developers keen to make exclusively for Apple devices, Android has been playing catch up. The late Steve Job emphasized this factor so much so when designing new intuitive systems, that frankly the iPhone wins hands down with its excellent GUI/Apps/Software and free iTunes updates! FaceTime, Siri, and lets not forgot iPhone 4S has the World's Best portable music player built inside too - "iPod touch", which also outshines and outsells the latest handheld game consoles. Such is the popularity of the IOS, the iPad has taken another big bite of the console gaming market by putting an operating system in a Tablet.

With this battle of the smart-phones, it seems it is going to come down to personal preference. Each phone has taken mobiles to a new dimension, and who knows what will come next!
