I have the iPhone 6 and like it a lot. My thought is that it is a tad too large. On the other hand many people really like the iPhone 6+ which is much larger. Chacun à son goût. </p> <span class="strong">neutrino23</span> </li> <li> <p>Love these comparison, doom for humanity since we are so illogical people will still flock to iPhone. Fast charging will be on iPhone and people will think its the best ever but they'll dismissed that it was on Android first!</p> <span class="strong">phissith</span> </li> <li> <p>Galaxy edge wins the category "Curved display"</p> <p>There should have been another category called "Is an iPhone" then, haha.</p> <p>Good comparison article though!</p> <span class="strong">techfan1234567890</span> </li> <li> <p>Nice article. I saw the presentation of the new Galaxy in Barcelona. Nothing new that would make you switch from an iPhone. It seems like Samsung has removed the two things that could make someone move from Apple to Android: removable battery and SD-card.</p> <span class="strong">Raptool</span> </li> <li> <p>Love how people always say Android had it first and then their favorite companies compete to copy when they are implemented properly on iPhone later.</p> <p>like TouchID, iCloud, Retina Display, Siri etc..</p> <span class="strong">Prasad Velkuri</span> </li> <li> <p>i'm a little disappointed at the removal of water/dust resistance on the new phones. While rarely used, its nice to remove that pucker moment you get when you mistakenly drop the phone in a toilet or pool</p> <span class="strong">Michael Wilson</span> </li> <li> <p>Why even make the comparisons when all you can do is list Iphone's actual specs, and Samsung's marketing list of specs. You purported to do a side by side comparison, and all you have of two of the phones is a data sheet from the manufacturer. Not the best comparison I've seen come out of here. Do one again when you have some hands on. </p> <span class="strong">Don White</span> </li> <li> <p>S6 is a big step backwards from my S5. Water and shock resistance, SD cards and replaceable battery are gone. Who cares that S6 has glass back? Plastic case never bothered me. Samsung needs a smaller high end phone option.</p> <span class="strong">Jeff Goldstein</span> </li> <li> <p>Unfortunately, as with everything else electronic, people care more about loyalty to a company than to actually getting the most for their money. Its been the curse of the computer business since the start.</p> <p>This is a good comparison. And even Apple haters have got to admit Apple keeps the other companies trying to outdo any i-gadget produced.</p> <p>For a change we see companies actually trying to get the latest tech out in front, rather than milking the public for every drop they can squeeze out of them by keeping tech advancements to themselves. The milking strategy is what made Microsoft the giant it is.</p> <p>Being a fanboy of any company will always make for useless arguments and truly good tech being ignored.</p> <span class="strong">Lbrewer42</span> </li> <li> <p>Awaiting delivery of my new S5 at the moment. Happy with that choice!</p> <span class="strong">Rick Steeb</span> </li> <li> <p>I think that if you're going to do a comparison like this, and include Samsung's highest end devices, you should have chosen the iPhone 6+ as your basis of comparison. After all, it is better than the iPhone 6 in a number of key areas that you compare against the new Galaxy range, such as battery life, camera, OIS, etc. Also, it has a bigger battery than both of the Galaxy's and will undoubtedly win the endurance test. In my mind, Apple is still years ahead.</p> <span class="strong">t0pcat</span> </li> <li> <p>Yes the s6/edge isn't as impressive as it should be but apple fans were ecstatic when all apple did was build 2 phones with different screen sizes. You guys are the most easily impressed people ever, when it's designed by apple. When the competition designs it, it's obviously garbage, even if it is first. Apple does it right later? Hardly. Even with months of testing the groundbreaking competitions first shot and trying to fix any quirks, they still epic fail. S5 was disappointing after the S4 which demolished apple for a solid year and a half altho a couple nice features were welcomed [IP dust/water rating] but not much else. Now they've truly crushed ip6 display and camera as expected but failed to keep the removable memory/battery?? WHY??? I could even get past the battery, maybe, if I hadn't seen so many frozen iphones in the past. But the memory card should never be removed, it was one of the best features that really put apple to shame cause running non-essential apps/programs off the memory card kept the phone lively and responsive unlike bogged down iphones. 1 step forward, 1 step back. Not sure what to do......</p> <span class="strong">Brian Justin</span> </li> <li> <p>The clones routinely 'win' these pointless specs battles but are all well and truly losing the war.</p> <p>"Apple Shines With Record Earnings on Huge iPhone Sales" <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150715195632/http://time.com/3685341/apple-shines-with-record-earnings-on-huge-iphone-sales/" rel="nofollow">http://time.com/3685341/apple-shines-with-record-earnings-on-huge-iphone-sales/</a></p> <p>"Samsung profits hit by falling mobile sales" <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150715195632/http://www.bbc.com/news/business-31033639" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbc.com/news/business-31033639</a></p> <span class="strong">Neil</span> </li> <li> <p>And the battle rages on. I agree with what one commenter said on another tech blog; there is no best, there is good (and both products are very good at what they do according to the many well thought out and colorful responses here), and then there is what's good or best for you. Trolling each of these powerhouse products (and I've even read a couple of tech writers who have done the same thing) like you are trying to recruit converts is soooooo annoying to read through and sucks the wind right out of comments of people who actually put some thought into honestly expressing the value of their experiences with the device of their choice. Please, please, please, I emplor you....Grow Up !!!
