Clash of the Titans: a flagship phone is better – Apple iPhone 6, Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge – Delfi – DELFI.ee

Of course, before you decide to buy an expensive phone, I want to test it properly. Trainer and consultant online store Elion Martin Paju practice examined three of the most expensive and smart phones in the world: iPhone 6, Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, writes “MK-Estonia”.

It is necessary to also say that we compare the device with the operating system iOS and Android – not an easy task, almost like comparing two different worlds with their own individual features. However, according to Martin, we can derive some obvious advantages and disadvantages.

Design and Ergonomics

As for the design, phones are very similar: at a certain angle it might seem that Apple’s designers and Samsung have developed together. Still, there are differences. The thickness of the shell is the same in both phones – 6.9 mm, but if you put them side by side on the table, iPhone seems a little thinner. It is a merit of designers Apple. Speaking about the benefits of iPhone 6 design should definitely note a less prominent rear camera, which, although a little stands outside the body of the telephone, but still not as much as the camera Galaxy S6. The camera, which is located in one corner of the housing, so it is unlikely that at the time of the shooting finger accidentally close the lens.

Phones have a fingerprint reader, which makes the use of safer and easier. Both phones are well-read your fingerprint, but Samsung in several cases considered to mark the first time did not work, I had to make a second attempt.

In models Samsung S4 and S5 many users do not back panel of cheaper material, because of what seemed to be a cheap phone, too. Samsung has eliminated this problem, and now, and for the manufacture of the front and rear panels of the new model S6 used heavy-duty material 4 Corning Gorilla Glass – toughened glass, which is difficult to scratch. The side elements are made of aluminum, and when you take the phone in hand, he seems nice heavy and expensive.

Now, a separate design Galaxy S6 edge: it must be admitted that this is really luxurious and elegant mobile phone with a curved on both sides screen, he millimeter thinner iPhone 6. And yet in his hand to me more like Galaxy S6, because the edges of edge with prolonged use seems a little too sharp. As they say, beauty demands victims. 6 And iPhone without a case seems to be too thin and fragile – had the feeling that I had just about dropped, because the screen is very slippery, and the phone is very thin.

By working to improve the design, Samsung was forced to abandon a quality that may be important for some users, namely water resistance – if you want to take photos or videos under the water, will have to choose a different device.

Samsung declined the removable rear panel, is now replacing the battery can no longer carry out household materials at hand. In addition, these models no longer have a separate card slot micro-SD. Exactly! When you purchase Galaxy S6 and S6 edge just have to choose the size of the built-in memory – 32, 64 or 128 GB. Like Apple, Samsung offers to solve the problem with the space due to a cloud storage service OneDrive. Remove, and in the presence of an Internet connection photos and videos will be uploaded to the cloud with a personal account on the server Samsung. Owners Galaxy S6 may be 2 years free use of 100 GB of OneDrive.

Power

If you compare the technical data processor one or another phone, focusing only on viewing figures it may seem that the iPhone 6 will not keep pace with the times – he has dual-core “Turtle” with a frequency of 1.4 GHz. In fact, it is a dual-core processor coupled with amazing powerful graphics accelerator PowerVR GX6450, which makes the iPhone 6, one of the fastest in the world for mobile devices operations, especially for gaming.

It seems that Samsung added as “iron” in its new flagship, which in many aspects of the graphic device with such power could eventually surpass the new iPhone 6. When using the phone does not feel any delays or deadlocks, which often have a characteristic problem for phones with Android. Especially since we are talking about the device with a screen having a high resolution! To ensure a smooth, iron prodelyvat needs a lot of work.

Since no program to date would not allow equal and honest assessment of the two devices, I decided just to see how they cope with both the Real Racing 3 – pretty demanding game and run it on both devices simultaneously.

The results were very interesting: the movement of the start menu at the Galaxy S6 was much smoother and more rapid than on the iPhone 6. But during the actual race, it appeared that iPhone 6 in the game a bit more visual effects – you can to say that on this point the score 1: 0 in favor of the iPhone 6.

screen

Let’s just say I have not seen a better image on the screen of the smartphone than on Galaxy S6 or S6 edge! If we talk about primary colors displayed on the screen – red, green and blue – then they flashed like a laser. At first, unnaturally bright colors may even annoying, but after a couple of hours of use there completely opposite effect, and go to another screen is difficult.

The screen iPhone 6 are not so bright colors, and it certainly is not as clear as the screen S6 and S6 edge, however, it is quite competitive. His colors are more natural and not so flashy, and the density of pixels on the screen is excellent.

Camera

When I used as a user phone operating system Android, not without the light of envy looking at those who shot his excellent iPhone Photo & Video, in the case of Galaxy S6 with a calm heart, I can say that the world is a manufacturer installed in their smart device a camera that is better than Apple. Photo 16-megapixel camera with an aperture of f / 1.9 are obtained simply fantastic quality! I made a couple of photos as the iPhone, or Galaxy S6 in low light conditions. Both cameras work well at dusk is great, yet the superiority of the iPhone Galaxy S6 was obvious.

As with the Apple iPhone 6, phones Galaxy S6 have HDR-mode, video recording with a slow motion effect, interval shooting mode and the new Full HD recording with a high frame rate – 60 fps.

Apple did not add to their iPhone 6 ability to shoot with a resolution of 4K, though, in terms of hardware, iPhone would have to deal with that. The Galaxy S6, this feature is available.

Other features

Unlike its main competitor, Galaxy S6 has a built-in support for wireless charging, which is also compatible with two leading standards. This means that you do not have to buy the wireless charger is brand Samsung, any other approach that supports wireless charging standard WPC / QI or PMA.

In addition, the kit includes a quick charging device of a new type, which is just half an hour is able to charge the battery to 50 percent. However, after the charging rate starts to fall, it is necessary to save the battery. Those who have tested the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, believe that the medium and high load, they should work well day or two.

Another advantage of models Galaxy S6 and S6 edge – IRDA, t. E. IR a transmitter, with which you can control your home appliances. For example, if you do not remember where I put the TV remote or digibox, you can use to change the channel your phone. Convenient and practical, is not it?

To sum up

Comparing phones, I came to the conclusion that neither the Galaxy S6, S6 edge nor is far those devices that would spodvigli iPhone users to abandon in favor of iOS Android. World Apple strictly regulated with regard to their devices and applications that are created in order that together they worked flawlessly. If this particular world to replace one device with another device operating system – it will be like trying to sew one person hands of another.

Still, this time Apple Samsung has sent a serious message that its products – device is not a second order. Now the company is ready to produce a powerful phone with a great design, which in this case works fine. At this time, a breakthrough that has been made in the form of Galaxy S6 and S6 edge, was much more spectacular of what at one time was able to Apple with its iPhone 6.
