The Samsung Galaxy S is the first phone that is properly aimed at beating the Apple iPhone's dominance in the high-end smartphone segment. It is a dominance that has been unchallenged for the past few years and this is the first proper attempt at challenging it. It is a well-known fact that the Apple iPhone 4 can do a lot of things good, but the Samsung Galaxy S can do those same things even better. Even though the Samsung Galaxy S looks very much like the previous Apple iPhone 3G, it still is a wonderful looking phone and it manages to square off with the Apple iPhone 4 in terms of thickness. It is something that not many phones can even dream off.

The Apple iPhone 4 has a 3.5 inch touch screen display, but the Samsung Galaxy S goes one better by having a 4 inch touch screen display that is even better in resolution because of the use of super AMOLED display technology. While the retina display technology used by the Apple iPhone 4 looked great in the beginning, it certainly has been overthrown by the launch of this new technology from Samsung. This new technology dramatically reduces the power consumption and also improves ...
... visibility in areas where the phone will be subjected to direct sunlight. In fact, the only area where the Apple iPhone 4 manages to come close to the Samsung Galaxy S is in the scratch resistant touch screen display. While the technology behind the scratch resistant screen display in the Apple iPhone 4 is not very clear, the Samsung Galaxy S achieve this by the use of the gorilla glass display.

The Apple iPhone 4 is available in two different memory options, but the Samsung Galaxy S comes only with a 16 GB memory option. The maximum possible memory in the Apple iPhone 4 is 32 GB and while it may look strong in this aspect, it is not long before it is defeated by the fact that the Samsung Galaxy S can accommodate a further 32 GB by the way of using micro-SD memory cards. This feature is not present in the Apple iPhone and hence, you have to stick with the memory that you buy have for the entire duration that you have the phone. The Samsung Galaxy S also overtakes the Apple iPhone 4 in terms of image quality as well. Even though both phones use the same five megapixel camera, the Samsung Galaxy S has more features and options in it than the Apple iPhone 4.

The one area where the Apple iPhone 4 could have redeemed itself is in the processor department, but here to the Galaxy S makes an appearance that cannot be challenged. This is because it employs a 1 GHz processor, which is same in the specifications like the iPhone 4. The Samsung Galaxy S is currently selling in the United Kingdom and predictably, there are plenty of network providers who are currently providing this phone with their contracts.
