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


Introduction

It’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?

Now seriously, do we need another iPhone vs. insert phone of choice thing? Well, do you need Retina display when it’s more than the human eye can see? Do you need a 4” Super AMOLED when 3.5” would’ve been just fine – and easier to handle?


 
Apple iPhone 4




Samsung I9000 Galaxy S




Yes, we’ll be comparing the best screens in business. But it’s not even the beginning of what this is all about. There’s not just muscle being flexed here – it’s about ideology too. It’s open source Android against control freaks Apple, democracy against the royalty.

And technically, the Samsung Galaxy S is not alone in this fight. It’s backed by an army of overseas mercenaries, marching to take on the Apple phone on different markets: Samsung Vibrant, Samsung Captivate and the Epic 4G.

The different call signs aside, we have two of the best phones you can get today and this is not a kill-or-get-killed game. The first thing we try to find out when reviewing phones is who they are for. The tech inside is always exciting but ultimately it all comes down to whether the right users are getting the right treatment.

The specs are the players – the phone is the team. You can always tell a star player. But the winning team isn’t always the one with the better players. And sometimes you don’t even want to look at the score. That’s when we know it’s been a hell of a game.

Samsung Galaxy S over Apple iPhone 4

Android 2.1 Éclair, 2.2 Froyo update just around the corner
-4” SuperAMOLED display with a 15:9 widescreen aspect ratio
-Regular SIM card support
-DivX/XviD video support
-FM radio with RDS
-Notably cheaper


Apple iPhone 4 over Samsung Galaxy S

-iOS 4
-640 x 960 pixel Retina display
-Scratch-resistant, high-quality glass panels
-LED flash
-Precise movement tracking via a gyro sensor

It’s Android’s finest against the iPhone but that’s how we tend to look at it on our side of the pond. The truth is, there are meaner and keener droids out there. The Motorola DROID X and the HTC Evo 4G are obviously not part of our story but are the kind of phones to merit a place in history.

Anyway, there’s enough firepower here even without the US heavyweights. Screen and OS are the most powerful weapons of both the Galaxy S and the iPhone 4. SuperAMOLED came first and impressed the world but now the Retina display is claiming the crown.

With platforms it’s a mirrored image of the same events: iOS (known as iPhone OS at the time), redefined touchscreen usability but Android claims to have leapfrogged it with Froyo.

To further complicate things, even absolutely identical specs don’t produce the same performance. The cameras on both devices may look similar but the rival camps took a completely different approach to processing – that holds true for both still imaging and video recording.

At times, it will look like the Galaxy S is competing against a first-gen iPhone. There are still things Apple will never bother put in their phones. Elsewhere, the Samsung Galaxy S might find it hard to match the stature and eloquence of the iPhone. That’s how we like it though – punches flying both ways. Be right back.

HTC Wildfire

Introduction

Occasionally HTC takes a little break from high-end smartphones and dips its toes in the waters of the lower midrange. The HTC Wildfire is a down-sized, down-clocked and down-priced version of the HTC Desire. If Sony Ericsson can do it with the [url=http://X10 mini]X10 mini,then HTC have all the right in the world to make a Desire mini too.

But while the Desire was something that easily snatched everybody’s attention, the Wildfire is a bit more toned down despite its fire-some name.

Key features

-Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
-3G with 7.2 Mbps HSDPA
-Android OS v2.1 (Éclair) with Sense UI
-3.2" capacitive touchscreen of QVGA resolution
-Multi-touch support
-Qualcomm MSM 7225 528 MHz CPU, 384 MB RAM, 512 MB ROM
-5 megapixel auto-focus camera with LED flash and touch focus
-Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and GPS receiver
-Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate
-Turn-to-mute, lift-to-tone-down
-Proximity sensor
-Smart dialing
-Standard miniUSB port for charging and data
-Bluetooth with A2DP, file transfers
-microSD card slot, a 2GB card in the box
-Standard 3.5mm audio jack
-Social network integration: Facebook, Twitter and Flickr through Friend Stream
-Flash-enabled browser
-Direct access to the official Android repository
-Stereo FM radio with RDS


Main disadvantages
-Poor screen image quality, QVGA doesn’t do Android OS and the display size justice
-No video-call camera or videocalling whatsoever
-CIF@15fps video recording (352 x 288 pixels) is below par
-No voice dialing
-No DivX or XviD video support out of the box
-No TV-out port

The Wildfire is certainly the right phone for those who like to always stay in touch. The high-end connectivity is all there, along with solid social network integration and browsing. It seems the display and CPU are the only downgrades from the Desire.

But that’s still a lot. Android phones with QVGA screens have failed to impress and the size of the Wildfire’s display gives no reason to be optimistic here.

Knowledge / Do You Know What This Symbol Means?

Do You Know What This Symbol Means?





Do you recognize the symbol here? It lights up in your instrument panel and looks like a U-shaped pictograph with treads and an exclamation point in the middle.



Do you understand what it means now?


If you guessed a low tire-pressure warning, you are right. If you didn’t recognize the symbol, that’s also understandable because one out of three drivers do not, according to Schrader, a company that makes tire pressure monitoring systems.


The issue here seems to be that the public hasn’t been properly educated on the warning symbol, which is supposed to be “idiot proof” and understandable across a wide variety of cultures and languages. Yet 46% of drivers couldn’t figure out that the icon represents a tire and 14% thought the symbol represented another problem with the vehicle entirely, according to Schrader.


Properly inflated tires are vitally important to your safety. Low pressure will affect your braking, acceleration, stability, cornering and fuel economy. The government instituted the TPMS mandate after the Bridgestone/Firestone tire failures on the Ford Explorer in 2000, a controversy that was partly attributed to inadequately inflated tires.

I don't buy the article's view. The way Google is integrated into people's lives is impressive. Their android OS is taking off in the mobile. They're all over the place: shopping, search, email, research, maps, mobiles. I don't think they're going anywhere anytime soon.

Yahoo, on the other hand, is OVER, if you want to get dramatic. But even they're putting up a fight with FlickR.

I agree ! Android rocks
