Q. Would like to hear the insights of people who used iphone and/or Samsung galaxy.
I want to buy the S 3, I am just a bit hesitant and not sure if it deserves the hype it's been given
I meant iPhone 4S, sorry
A. Just buy the s3. Do not hesitate.
S3 has already displace iphone in UK - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/mobile-phones/9306491/Samsung-Galaxy-S3-displaces-iPhone-as-UKs-most-popular-phone.html
Some features - Gestures have been introduced on a number of Android handsets, including the preceding Galaxy S2, but they have been inconsistent and fiddly.
Samsung has heavily promoted the gesture set on the S3, so the firm would have been left red-faced if they didn't perform.
Out of the numerous features, Smart Stay, Direct Call, Palm Sweep and Turnover are our favourites and will be the most useful to business users.
Smart Stay is a feature which uses the 1.9-megapixel front facing camera to track your eyes. When the phone detects you have looked away from the device, it will dim the display and switch off (depending on length of screen time out), but as long as you maintain eye contact, it will continue at full brightness.
This is particularly useful if you put the device down for a couple of seconds. The display may dim, but once you pick it up it will brighten up. The feature also means the screen will not dim when reading web pages, but there are problems in low-light.
Direct call is simpler, but just as effective. When you are viewing or writing a text message, browsing a contact or checking a missed call, the phone will call the person if you raise the device to your ear. The system isnât perfect and we found it to be inconsistent when you are typing message. However, when we were viewing a message, it worked everytime and saved a couple of clicks.
Raise the phone to your ear when a contact is on screen to call them
Palm Sweep helps to simplify the process of taking screen shots. These have always been fiddly on Android phones â requiring users to simultaneously hold volume and lock buttons down.
Samsung has simplified this experience. To take a screen grab you simply use the edge of your hand and swipe from the right hand edge to left edge (more examples of these later on). This is quick and particularly useful when using apps such as Docs to Go as you can take screen grabs of important pictures or documents.
It is also possible to capture screen grabs of internet web pages too, but these can be tricky as it is easy to scroll down by accident. We also found you have to be viewing the webpage in âdesktop modeâ and it is only possible to take screen grabs in portrait mode.
Turnover is another simple idea which will be useful for business user who forget to turn their devices to silent when entering meetings. If the phone rings, you turn it over to mute it instantly and avoid disruption.
50GB of Dropbox and expansion
Most high-end smartphones on the market, such as the iPhone 4S and HTC One X, offer some form of cloud-based storage. With the iPhone 4S Apple offers 5GB of storage with its iCloud and HTC offers 25GB of Dropbox space for two years with its One range of devices.
However, Samsung has trumped them both by offering a mammoth 50GB of storage space for two years. Although business users are unlikely to want to store confidential information in their Dropbox account, it is an invaluable resource for saving documents, pictures, videos and music.
Not only does Samsung top its rival when it comes to cloud-based storage, the S3 is the most expandable high-end device on the market.
Samsung allows users to remove the back cover to gain access to the battery and add in a micro-SD card of up to 64GB in size. This essentially turns the device into a sizeable hard disk and is great for business users as they can invest in a spare battery.
3. Unrivalled performance
The S3 is the quickest and most responsive smartphone we've tested. Samsung has manufactured its own Exynos 1.4GHz quad-core processor using a 32nm process to improve efficiency. The firm has also added in 1GB of RAM.
Opening and switching between apps is lag free. The device also comes with a Pop up play feature, which allows users to carry on watching a video and use other applications such as messages. This is an excellent feature and allows PC-like multitasking as opposed to just âapp switchingâ.
The S3 is capable of PC-like multitasking when it comes to watching videos
The high performance of the S3 is backed up by benchmarking. Using the Geekbench app, which measures devices based on processor speed and memory, the S3 scored an average of 1387. This is considerably higher than the HTC One X (709) and nearly double the 626 for the iPhone 4S.

A. The only phones that have the latest processor, which is the snapdragon 800, are the note 3, the sony z1, the nexus 5 and the lg g2, this makes them the top phones by far, for now. The note 3 is the best in benchmark scores, it also has more ram memory and more features that any other phone but it's huge, for me it is just inpractical to carry a phone that big. The sony z1 is good but I have used it and it doesn't perform like the g2 or note 3. It feels slow at times and it's glass back cover design looks good but aso seems fragile. The lg g2 is for me the best, I own it and its incredibly fast. The rear key design feels weird at first but it has its usefullness and remember it has rear keys because it's one of the worlds thinnest phones! it also has the highest amount of pixels per square inch in the world (480ppi). Another unique feature it has is it's 1gb or vram memory, this is a separate ram memory that is only for graphics, This helps with games and it also saves battery, no other phone has this. And about the battery, it has a 3000mah battery which is the highest amount battery life in it's class. Only the note has more battery at 3200mah but the note 3 is a more power hungry device than the g2. They both have a 13 magapixel sensor and are tied in terms of photo quality.
Basically if you can live with a huge device buy the note 3, if not but the lg g2. They are tied in almost everything, so the decision falls on personal preference.
