Is Galaxy S4 a competitor to Iphone??

1.Dual camera technology, which

allows users to capture photos

and videos with both a front and

rear camera at the same time.

2. The new gadget has a 5-inch full

HD screen and is slimmer and

lighter than its ancestor, the

Galaxy S III.

3.A function for speech-to-text

and text-to-speech translation of

several languages.

4.The ability to respond to some

eye movements.

For instance, its "smart pause" feature stops playing video when it detects that a user has looked away. The video will play again when it senses that the user has looked back.

Samsungs latest "High-tech smartphone" Galaxy S4 launched on thursday has reaped all the records of google searches reaching upto even more than 500,000 searches in a day and has covered the front pages of many newspapers and magazines.

One key question for Samsung will be whether the user experience will match the S4's hardware upgrades.

Early reaction was mixed. An

Associated Press review said "it's

hard to point to anything that will

set the world on fire." Despite a

number of user interface

innovations, "they don't amount

to a coherent new way of

interacting with the phone," the

AP said.

People's review about their liking is for S4 or Iphone...

In S4's favour:

In front of a nearby Apple store,

Jason Reed, 28, of Richmond,

Calif., said he will likely get the S4

once his iPhone contract expires.

"I liked the Galaxy III but heard

about the S4 and just waited," he

says.

" It used to be that Apple was the

challenger brand — taking on the

powerful PC, he says. But now

Samsung is the one going after the

dominant player."

" Samsung has painted the

iPhone as a device that older

parents, rather than cool younger

folks, would use."

"Samsung has poked Apple

majorly in the eye"

In Iphone's favour:

"Everyone loves the challenger

brand... Everybody loves the

underdog," says David Bryant,

chief creative officer at digital

marketing agency Organic and a

former creative strategist at

Google."

"It used to be that Apple was the

challenger brand — taking on the

powerful PC. But now

Samsung is the one going after the

dominant player."(It still means that Iphone is a dominant player)

"People still queue up themselves in the headquarters of apple in the quest of knowing whether any new gadget is installed or not".
