samsung or iphone?

I couldn't live without my iPhone! x

Your life must be great....

I had a Samsung Galaxy Y and it always kept freezing and the touch screen was very unresponsive, whereas my iPhone works perfectly. Admittedly the Samsung phone I had was quite an old model but I still really disliked it.

Apple iPhone anytime over Samsung. Primarily because in my opinion iOS (Apple's operating system) > Android. This article sums up the mobile operating system, I.e: Android that Samsung uses:
"Android fragmentation turning devices into a toxic hellstew of vulnerabilities"

Let me give you some stats to back this up:

"89 percent of Apple's installed base is on the most recent version of iOS, just 9 percent of Android users are in the same position."
"One-third of customers are running a version of Android from 4 years ago"
- Running an outdated firmware increases the likelihood of security flaws. This statistic suggests updating a samsung, android-run phone is harder to update than Apple.

Also to add to the flaws of Samsung & Android: 99% of mobile malware is android based.

well Y is a lower end phone. it is not meant to carry out heavy work.

I haven't seen this kind of fanboy argument for a very long time. 2/10, would not read again.


Regarding the OP it really depends what you want to do with your phone and which model of Samsung you get, they aren't all the same.

iPhones are renowned for their simplicity, but Apple do as much as possible lock you into themselves so for instance if you use a Mac and iPad you get all sorts of useful syncing. Apps tend to be more expensive on iOS as well.

Samsungs very in their models. The latest flagship S5 has big screen if you're not used to it so if you have dainty hands you might find one handed use difficult. It does have cool features, but IMO most are gimmicky. Smaller and older Samsung phones might be a little slow, so running games two years from now might be a problem. Battery life is always something to consider with Samsungs as well (although it isn't great on iPhones).

You could get either. Arguments of apps aren't really valid any more. Both Android and iOS have a **** tonne, that's metric.

I myself went for a Google/ LG phone. I hate Samsung's plasticy feel as well. Wouldn't cost the earth to make a nice feeling phone Samsung, come on.

This comparison is like saying "Do you prefer the Gallardo or Audi?" one is a model, one is a manufacturer. I could perfectly well say I prefer my Samsung washing machine to my iPhone in response.
