iPhone 5 vs. Galaxy 3, the ultimate in Android vs iOS

And what’s the sense of your word eh? If you have something in mind that is related to the article other than trolling, then you may contribute to a healthy conversation…

Koooya! Gawa ka pu sareleng mong blag! Baket nman pu idadagdag ang WanX?? Bisaya ka dung??!!

I hope that people would understand that nowadays, hardware doesnt necessarily translate to a more superior phone. That’s why there are benchmarks. Hardware is misleading sometimes. Like 8 megapixels on one phone does not mean it has the same photo quality with the another phone with the same mega pixel camera. I hope Yuga would put more thoughts on his posts.

Dude it’s not all about how many features and fancy specs the device is carrying. It’s all about performance and usability.

@ude. I am talking about overall function and usability. Let me ask you this, can you name any other device that trumps the fluidity and functionality of the iPhone? Heck you can name a lot but I am sure it will just you own personal thought not a majority of people out there. You are asking me the usefulness of iPhone 5 maps? Just ask yourself, how often do you use it… If you don’t want apple maps in ios 6 it’s up to you, you can still use google maps througt their web app. It makes me think how uninformed you are when you ask me that question, that you look like you don’t know how to put the google map on ios

connectivity NFC support s3;1 iphone5;0

but then again, if you’re really considering the “ultimate” android, consider the LG’s latest flagship(rumored to be named Nexus) Optimus G!

OptimusG for ORGASM!

I couldn’t believe this post came from one “expert” in tech. Don’t get me wrong, I like Yuga and I own an S3 but the comparison is plain stupid. Tech journalism fail.

to sirs grumphus and tarush….well said..tumbok nyo ang battery ish. kaso ang big disappointment ko lang eh walang wireless charging sila. pero depende na talaga sa user yan.

Gotta agree with Deuts. This is smartphone we’re talking about. If you’re about to wait and wait, you’ll end up waiting forever.

The transition is fast and I suggest, you must consider a device that’s been future-proof.

Waiting for s4 would end you up getting it around june 2013.

Getting s3 now would end you up getting a not the highest end few months from now.

I suggest you better get Note 2 or Optimus G or the rumored HTC 5-incher device that has 1080p resolution. The three latter mentioned device would give you the highest end android device few months from now. And also, would be future-proof for up to two years.

But if you’re willing to wait, you better get the s4 :)

Very objective? Hardly!

It’s an objective review. It’s basically a comparison of hardware of each phone. He never indicated it’s an “in depth” review. To quote what Abe specifically said in the 1st paragraph:

“But OS aside, we looked at both devices and pit their hardware features against each other.”

So as Abe is comparing “hardware” features, to reply to your first point, bigger IS better, hardware wise. PPI above 300 is barely noticeable. Re: Drop test, wtf dude, if Apple did include that as a “feature”, then it surely would’ve won. But it’s not.

Also, can you elaborate completely how unstable Android OS is? I have the 4S and the S3, and I can’t seem to find anything “unstable” about the Android OS. I have no qualms with the iOS either.

Basically to the guys who were quick to give off a negative reaction to this article…

…Read

“First off, just ’cause the screen is bigger, doesn’t mean it’s better.”

then tell me, why is it that the latest iPhone has bigger screen compared to the previous models??

Hindi mo ata nabasa yung pinost na link ni martinalmighty yung nauna sayo. Ito yung sabi doon sa post niya:

“A CNET iPhone 5 benchmark report stirred some controversy on Google Plus where xda-member Adam Outler called out the publication on Google+ for misrepresenting iPhone 5 tests:

CNET posted a bogus report on benchmarks. I had problems believing that a dual core from apple would be faster than every Android device so I decided to go to the source. Turns out the Galaxy S3 and the Nexus7 both score higher benchmarks than the iPhone 5.

You can see here for yourself. IPhone scores 1590, Galaxy S3 scores 1766. These are the benchmarks mentioned in the article below.

iPhone benchmarks: http://browser.primatelabs.com/ios-benchmarks”

Paki-basa na lang po yung link niya para mas maliwanagan tayo.

Hala sige bitbitin mo yang i7 PC mo sa mall or wherever and then take pics, mag fb, IG, tweet, text, call , mag-games & mag net! Tingnan ko lang kung di ka mangalay!

Well look closely…you’ll find out how biased it is….look how he dropped both phones

Correct, the laggy droids are the ones having with a price tag of 20K and below or those having the older versions. As compared to iOS they’re older versions are way more stable to older versions of Android but not the ICS or Jellybean. iOS came first so they normally evolve first as well so obviously they’re way more stable than android until ICS and Jellybean came out. If you compare an iPhone with a price tag of $500 above vs an Android phone having $300 price tag, the iPhone might win but not all the time since some people will still vote for the price and the flexibility of using an Android (ie plugging it to any computer for transfer of music or video without needing an itunes or using a standard USB cable that you can find from most phones nowadays). But if you compare it with Android phones who are close enough to the price range of iPhones then the User experience when it comes to the smoothness of the interfaces and apps are the same. Just my 2 cents :)
