iPhone 5s vs Samsung Galaxy S5 – The War of Two Tribes

Posted By: Meghna Mathur 0 Comment , , ,

The tussle between Samsung and Apple is ongoing. After the launch of iPhone 5s, two years back, Samsung also introduced its impeccable S5 model in 2014 to give tough competition to Apple. However, with these strong contenders in the market of smartphones, it’s is very difficult even for an expert to tell who will be victorious.

iPhone 5s vs Samsung Galaxy S5  Lets’s review both and see the results.

 Design

Apple knows how to design a masterpiece and this is evident from the 5S’s two-tone glass and aluminium back. However, Samsung cannot compete here with iPhone as its S5 still has the same old plastic look like the previous models.

 Display

With 4 inches LCD display with 1136 x 640 IPS326 pixel per inch density, iPhone 5S falls short before the 5.1 inch Full HD Super AMOLED screen of Samsung S5. Samsung’s 432 pixels per inch display definitely has an upper hand over iPhone.

 Camera

The 8 mp rear camera of iPhone with ‘True Tone’ flash is quite capable to give tough competition to 16 mp snapper of Samsung S5. However, S5’s camera is much faster than 5S and has the feature to modify the focus of a click post taking the pic. Additionally, you can see how your photo will look in HDR with its realtime HDR feature. Although, feature-wise Samsung overpowers the iphone, undoubtedly, iPhone 5S has the best camera ever.

 Battery

Having low powered 1,560 mAh juice pack, iPhone 5S fails to impress the users who needs extended battery life. However, with 2,800mAh battery, Samsung S5 has all the abilities to flatter its users. S5 only drops 16% of its battery even after keeping at video with full brightness. Isn’t it astounding?

After analysing aspects of both iPhone 5S and Samsung Galaxy S5, we can say that both the devices has its pros and cons and with strong clientele, both smartphones are here to stay in the market even after the launch of their upgraded versions. … Read the rest

Apple will roll to its to its strongest level since last year, with the launch of much anticipated iPhone 6 in September. The phone is speculated to  come in two variants– 5.5-inch one and a 4.7- inch . Both models are currently in production and can be expected some time in the fall.

 Apple has always launched its major products during fall.  A report in a Japanese business daily, Nikkei notes that “There is a possibility  of two screen sizes in new Apple offering which would hit the shelves by the end of year.” However, there is no official word regarding the same.

 A similar report had also suggested that Apple has partnered with Sharp to produce the display screens of a higher resolution. The Taiwan Commercial Times reports that, “ A Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. had been roped in to start the production of the Apple chips.”

 These handful of new partnerships suggest that Apple is ramping up their production for the new iPhones and since the previous models- the iPhone 5, the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c- all came out at the same time last year, one can expect the iPhone 6  same time this year as well. Moreover, the buzz is that Cupertino-Calif based company will also launch an upgraded version of last year’s iPhones.

iPhone 6 Release Date is to Remain 4-inch: Will Apple Fail Once Again Against Samsung?

Posted By: Nishtha Shukla Anand 0 Comment , , , , , ,

As far as iPhone 6 release date is concerned, it is not yet clear whether the Cupertino-based tech giant will bring in a bigger screen for its upcoming flagship phone.

As far as iPhone 6 release date is concerned, it is not yet clear whether the Cupertino-based tech giant will bring in a bigger screen for its upcoming flagship phone. Tim Cook has not given any assurance that the iPhone 6 would be sporting a screen size that is now common with most phablets. Cook hinted this in an interview and opined that before they launch a bigger display iPhone, they want to get reliable technology right.

However, Cook added that there are going to be several new and exciting categories and that their engineers have their hands full with some amazing stuff. Cook also clarified that Apple does not completely rule out the possibility that the next iPhone will have a larger screen, possible a 5-inch screen. There is also a possibility that Apple might be pushing for a key makeover for the present iPhone model. It might look to enhance the component capabilities and might enlarge the screen size but not phenomenally. There may be a faint screen bump up but  there are chances that the upcoming iPhone 6 pictured previously in various reports and speculations, will not be the same on its release.

Apple iPhone 6 Release May Happen Sooner As Apple Stock Fails to Live up to Investors Predictions

Posted By: Sonalee Singh 0 Comment , , , , ,

Apple has reported that in December 2013 it made a $13 billion profit, which could be largely dedicated to sale of 51 million units of iPhone 5S and 5C. Though Tim Cook believes that it is the best quarterly performance by the Company, Wall Street seems to disagree as the shares of the company decreased immediately after release of the figures. Apparently, the investors are not very sure about California-Cupertino based company’s growth.

Apple iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C did not capture consumer’s fancy as Apple it was expected by Apple and from what it seems Tim Cook has no intention of entering in the mass market with low-end phones. In his various interviews Cook has indicated that Apple only wants to focus on premium segment of phones.

 According to CNET.com Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster believes that Apple has made its stance on the lower-end clear and its current focus is on creating premium products at a premium price point.

This has made the analyst predict that Apple iPhone sales will decrease in 2014 and 2015. Munster further said in his investor note that the reason for Apple plummeting sales is the US market, which has now reached saturation point, as there the major source of sales is upgrades not new purchases.

 

Therefore, if Apple wants to accelerate its growth the only factor, which will work in its favor, is the early releases of iPhone 6 which may help Apple get an edge above its Android counterparts.

 

Recent rumors suggest that Apple will release iPhone 6 in the first quarter of 2014 and it is expected that the just like iPhone 5, iPhone 6 will come in two versions.
