iPhone 4S: Nice compact design, popular, pleasant and easy to use. - Expensive compared to other smartphones at the same level. App/ File transfer on iOS is much more annoying to use compare to android. Galaxy S3: Functionality, faster, larger, and much more to personalize. - Newer and up-to-date. Reasonable price.
I don't know why some people said this is a biased comparison. As an iPhone user who is intending to change to Galaxy S III, I find Pocketnow has done a good job in this video. Thank you Brandon!
Hey, did you check that you set the Resoloution to the maximum at GTA III on the Galaxy SIII? On my Galaxy Nexus it looks really nice, but only if you set it to maximum.
"The 4S won the web browsing test." Not taking into account that we couldn't see the web page on the 4S because of the screen size, while the the sIII displayed way more, where we could read the article.
The camera app "launching" faster on the 4S means nothing: all iOS apps include a screenshot of the app in their bundle that shows when the icon is tapped. This gives the illusion of the app being loaded before it actually is.
This is a WONDERFULL demonstration of why Quad Core does not always beat dual core, I for one am happy that in the U.S. we are getting 2GB of RAM and a faster Snapdragon S4 Dual core SOC, the S III in this test is not opening apps much faster than the 4S and its Dual Core is almost half the speed.
What I still don't understand is how is a comparison between a 2011 phone and 2012 phone supposed to matter? It's clear w/o any tests that the S3 will beat iphone 4s. If you really want to see a fair comparison, maybe you should wait for the iphone 5. I happen to own an S2 and iphone and I think these tests really don't matter. Does it really matter if the shutter opens with 1s faster on the S3 than on iphone or viceversa? If so, why?
The SGSIII screen annoying because it doesn't get very bright? I think the only time I really need a bright display is in the sun and that isn't a problem with the HD AMOLED so I guess it won't matter.
On the video test, why does the android (beep) come through on the (what is labeled) as the iPhone 4s video? Also, I agree with the other comments that it says something that ALL new phones coming out. The iPhone 4S is a little more than a year old and is just now starting to feel out-dated. The GSIII will be out dated in a few months....whether by the NEW iPhone or another Android device.
This comparison doesn't matter a bit to me. I'm a fan of both for small reasons. I'm a tech nerd, so I love rooting my S2 and I really enjoy the screen size. I like the iphone for it's syncing ability to my employees macs to gather data quickly. I will wait to upgrade when the next big thing comes out after the S III as my S2 seems as quick, or quicker than any current phone, and it never lets me down.. personal preference everyone. No reason to get into a dumb argument each time :)
personally, i like the vibrant colors more than the old-looking pictures from the iphone. maybe its just me but it does seem to pop out more with the samsung display.
The thing that gets me about people is when they the s3's too vibrant but you have an option in the phone to make the colors more natural like the iPhone or more colorful so its not like your limited to the default coloration. Check your facts.
I think its to control the noise. The quality is fantabuloso on GSI. It gets super loud though, so that's probably why they made it quieter, if he went to a crowd of people it would probably be easier to hear him over everyone else.
I have the 4s and when i play games i can't see what im doing because my thumb covers half the screen. I am going to get the s3 in a week or so, all the reviews i watched shows that it's boss
What the fuck happen to video sound on the galaxy s 3. Very disappointed by the 1080p sound . Looks like its still a toss up between this or the HTC One X
the major issue with comparing phones or even computers using the same apps but under different operating systems is the fact that no matter what, each is using a different programming language. One of the apps could be naively java and one could be not.
Can't say I agree with you regarding the design of the iPhone 4S being dated looking. It looks no more dated than any other phone on the market. And the S3 basically looks like a cross between a iPhone 4 and 3GS design with the white or black color, with silver trim. And how can you speak of bulky in terms of thickness when the S3 may be very slightly thinner but it is huge which makes it for a more bukly clunky feel. You are completely right about the back glass being a liability.
The bit about how the colors compare was flawed. Galaxy S3 has settings for the screen mode. Modes like "natural" and "movie" which are much more accurate then the default normal mode which is very oversaturated.
There is a major difference in the sound of the video comparison. The sound of the S3 is just like an old telephone and the iPhone sounds just as the good sound quality of the camera recording the previous video.
it's funny how the iPhone 4S is dual core, under clocked a whole year out of date, but still holds up against the latest and greatest quad core Android handset? lol.
I disagree with the comment about the iPhone looking dated. I believe that the iPhones design was ahead of its time, so therefore is still relevant today. You can't say that something looks dated simply because it's not changed in a couple of generations...
I've gotten the iPhone 4 and 4S multiple times for testing, business, etc. I thought maybe it was time for a change so I got the Galaxy S3 and so far i'm liking it. Maybe if the screen was a LITTLE bit smaller, just a LITTLE bit. It would be the perfect size. I just don't like the stock android keyboard, but install the apple keyboard emulator makes the experience better. Overall, i'm liking the S3 so far.
I don't know if you realized what i meant. I meant that if it was good for you then great, but it's not for everyone. My first comment was when everyone was bashing samsung so i tried to put a stop to it. If the phone is good for you then great. But when people start to bash companies because they compete with their favorite company, It gets annoying. Like i said, i'm not forcing people to switch, if you like your iphone then good for you. I just perfer the s3 over the iphone.
Getting the S3 myself, 4s is too pricey on contract and in general. Apple have however did an amazing job of utilizing the CPU power in the 4s. Also people forget the 4s was out a fair bit before the S3, I like em both personally :) Sound quality of recording on a 4s is better in my opinion.
But everyone was obviously bashing apple to, bashing back won't help at all it will just make you a fanboy. And I don't have an iPhone I'm comparing phones on which is better for me, I may be leaning towards the iPhone more but I believe in researching deeply and every video I go through (and blog) and I kid you not is 2/3 fanboys bashing apple and I expected better for some reason. I'm used to apple fanboys and now that is not even the matter
comparing an iPhone 3G to an HTC G1 would also be an unmatched comparison. they aren't comparable regardless. I saw one video comparing S Voice to Siri and the person said S Voice 'beat' siri because it got the info on the screen faster in some instances - where on siri the animation was what put it 'behind', milliseconds aren't exactly comparisons. :\
You didn't turn off the bluetooth on the iPhone 4S, This is wasting resources on the iPhone 4S as it is constantly discovering for bluetooh devices to link with, thus slows down the iPhone 4S wifi performance on the browser test. This is a bad oversight.
Ok besides what the iPhone fan is saying in this review. Fact: Galaxy S III loads web pages faster and loads them into 4.8 inches of screen compared to 3.5 inches Fact: Opens apps faster Fact: You can adjust the color intensity Fact: No I don't see any pixels sorry buddy (I do see the pixels on this video though) Fact: You have a better video and picture viewing experience Fact: You went over about a 5th of the GS III's features and went over all of the iPhone's
The iPhone mic sounds way better than the S3, but quality is far superior on the S3 compared to the iPhone. The iPhone was also fairly shaky (even after you had a good grip on it). It's weird though because I remember watching a video of the S2 vs. the 4S and I remember the S2 being much better in almost everything, the S3 is great but a disappointment.
this is what I don't get to all the people who reviews phones, how the hell do you know if the picture is oversaturated or not if you haven't seen it in real world? That John Mayer dude too, how do you know if he had tanned skin or paler skin at the time the photo was taken?? to me AMOLED looks better than regular LCD. once you've seen true black, you can't go back!
No, the iPhone 4S has the A5 Chip you're talking about the A5X which is just only on the "New iPad" now. This chip will probably be on the next iPhone though
outdated? seriously doubt it, the 4s has a waaaay better design than the SGSIII. The iphone isn't locked down like everyone's been saying, i have a rooted galaxy nexus, and i can do everything that i do on my nexus on my iphone(and yes the nexus is waaaaaaay better than the SGSIII overall). Not hating on the SGSIII just clearing up rumors that been goin on for a while that aren't true
whats so bad about small screens, If I want a wide screen for anything other than calling someone ill get a handheld. I need my phone to fit in my pocket, I need it to be heavy so i know its there,the camera is way better for me, if I want customization I can pretty much hack it and restore it with no problem its not illegal i agree on batteries but what phone don't charge over night nowadays and the costumer service is wonderful. So I win cause its for me, no baby else I'm forcing this on.
I'm a iPhone 4 user and yes the S3 has better hardware by a bit BUT ICS is only made for dual core phones hence why the S3 is hardly any faster than the S2, the tiny bit of negligible increase in speed is due to each core having 200mhz or more. iPhone 5 here i come
GTA3 test was unfair. iOs never had real multitasking (It just freezes apps in background, excellent test would be launch Angry birds on both, minimize, wait a bit, maximize, the music on galaxy s3 will progress further), while android does real multitasking (Or let's say just does multitasking).
the reason that android needs more cores was so it could excel at multitasking, The iphone doesn't do as much as android so it doesn't need the cores. The multitasking was great on both phones but s3 won. We don't need a comparison to know that the s3 is better, it's newer with better tech. These comparisons don't matter, we need to see what the iphone 5 brings to the table. (Plus, the galaxy nexus beat the iphone, it wasn't the processor, but android 4.0. Software was what won the day.)
i don't know why every reviewers say safari is one of the best browser.. it is smooth but only about 3.2 inch of the screen is useful.. It should not even be compared to android's browser..
I have the Samsung S3. I like it a lot better than the iPhone. One thing is that it feels so much smoother.Its my first android phone, and it is spectacular.To me the iphone 5 width should of been updated too, cause it being 4 inches makes it look awkward for being longer without any width difference. But it is slimmer which is good. I learned that android phones has better hard ware build in them. Cause i can actually run higher demand applications.
Nice that you made a video comparison, and seems that the SGIII does video nicely it would be nice if you compare camera (photos) performance, specially in low light
software has limits. "i pay for quality instead of quantity (processor power/cores)" s3 has better/more of 1. infinite contrast ratio 2. display being upgraded ppi and much harder due to sub pixel design. 3. Quad 4. Upgraded OS thru OTA and constant development. 5. Desktop 6. Flexibility and choice. YOU ARE PAYING FOR AN INFERIOR PRODUCT. AND CLEARLY YOU ARE AN APPLE FANBOI And yeah it does work. It work slower... and not as nice screen and ram and so on.....
Definitely better sound quality on the iPhone 4s in the last comparison, but both had great video quality. I'd definitely choose the Galaxy S III, though, because for me, it beat the iPhone 4s on every other aspect, but that's probably only down to preferences. Both great phones, undoubtedly, but I'm not really a fan of the iPhone; just not my cup of tea. However, right now, my two favourite phones are the Xperia S and One S, which might be surprising, but that's down to taste. Great comparison!
He said it right. Weird time to compare. I pretty sure the new iPhone will be better. But iPhone 4S (a year old phone) still did give SIII a good fight.!
You know what, I have an iPhone 4S and I pretty enjoy using it... You all think that a bigger screen or more ram makes the phone, but it's not so... And who the fuck needs a micro SD slot when you have 64 GB internal storage O_o... I saw some comments saying that almost all apps on iPhone are paid apps, and there is no flash player and lack of customization. It's because Apple has baned most customization apps, but simply by jailbreaking the iPhone you can get more things then Android can offer.
Maybe. Keep in mind the iPhone 4S came out more than a year ago. A lot of people like myself will tolerate Apple's restrictions vice having a laggy OS that always crashes. Although, Jelly Bean looks FANTASTIC!!! My boys at apple better be up to something!!
Heres the major difference between the Iphone and the SGS3... even if stock of the SGS3 was slower then the Iphone 4s, you can modify the actual rom of the phone and thus get extra speed out of it where as with the iPhone you simply get what comes with it...
i dont get this whole "LCD" is more natural arguement, firstly it doesnt really matter unless your into photography and to me since ive been using super amoled for years i would say that the LCD looks washed out, not natural, thats just my opinion, and also, any display that cant display black and displays it as "Greyish" isnt really natural in the first place :P Basically, LCD better for reading, SuperAmoled better for overall viewing of videos photos and multimedia etc.
GTA3 has a frame rate cap on android. Until the devs update it the GS3/One X won't run at their full FPS potential. It's almost half of what the SGS3 can do. Not Samsung's fault, developers fault.
The iphone i used wasn't a fake. Haven't you seen that iOS users experience more crashes than android users? So the galaxy s3 crashes in the video, just because it crashes here doesn't mean it crashes all the time. My friend downloaded N.O.V.A. 2 on his iphone and it crashed and wouldn't load at all. It messed up his iphone and Apple made him buy another one for $250. I bet you never even tried a galaxy s3, so just admit that the 4s lost and wait for the iphone 5 and the real comparison.
NOT knocking android, just pointing out an interesting quirk: so far I've watched 6 SIII vs iPhone4 videos on youtube, and in every single one, the SIII had a crash at least once during the testing. :\
yer how did u know! STALKER! anyways at the end of the video he was filming with a iphone and samsung and the sound quality was amazing for iphone and the samsung was echoing. also i have an iphone and you get more detail in the camera. also all over the internet people are saying iphone camera is better. like a boss.
actually i thought they were about the same, siri was faster a few times and s-voice was faster a few times, They were both on a wifi network and i wouldn't say either had an advantage. Be careful on youtube though. Some people put the s3 on 3g so it's slower. The truth is that they are about the same.
iPhone 4S: Nice compact design, popular, pleasant and easy to use. - Expensive compared to other smartphones at the same level. App/ File transfer on iOS is much more annoying to use compare to android.
Galaxy S3: Functionality, faster, larger, and much more to personalize. - Newer and up-to-date. Reasonable price.
Where did you get the international version? S3's to be sold in the US/Canada will be all dual-core.
Is the screen on the same brightness? The samsung galaxy SIII seemed to have quite a dark display and that strains my eyes.
I don't know why some people said this is a biased comparison. As an iPhone user who is intending to change to Galaxy S III, I find Pocketnow has done a good job in this video. Thank you Brandon!
which has best speaker for music , the iphone 4s or galaxy s3 ?
Shouldnt you have turned off the live wallpaper and widget?
Hey, did you check that you set the Resoloution to the maximum at GTA III on the Galaxy SIII? On my Galaxy Nexus it looks really nice, but only if you set it to maximum.
"The 4S won the web browsing test." Not taking into account that we couldn't see the web page on the 4S because of the screen size, while the the sIII displayed way more, where we could read the article.
between iphone 4s , xperia S and htc one S which has best speaker ?
is the S3 the international version used in this video?
I don't know if the new software does the same thing but with android 2.3.3 you can double tap and it zooms.
The camera app "launching" faster on the 4S means nothing: all iOS apps include a screenshot of the app in their bundle that shows when the icon is tapped. This gives the illusion of the app being loaded before it actually is.
Should I get an iPhone 4S or a Samsung GALAXY S III or a HTC One X
The iPhone is also available on Sprint not just AT&T & Verizon.
how would it be..the s3 got more color resolution than iphone4s....?
If you're going to say that, you should post a link.
This is a WONDERFULL demonstration of why Quad Core does not always beat dual core, I for one am happy that in the U.S. we are getting 2GB of RAM and a faster Snapdragon S4 Dual core SOC, the S III in this test is not opening apps much faster than the 4S and its Dual Core is almost half the speed.
Whoa, im the latest comment, all of the Comments are 3-4 years old.
you dont test internet load speed like video above. two devices are too close to make signal disruption
What I still don't understand is how is a comparison between a 2011 phone and 2012 phone supposed to matter? It's clear w/o any tests that the S3 will beat iphone 4s. If you really want to see a fair comparison, maybe you should wait for the iphone 5.
I happen to own an S2 and iphone and I think these tests really don't matter.
Does it really matter if the shutter opens with 1s faster on the S3 than on iphone or viceversa? If so, why?
You're comparing screen tint when you can change the screen temperature on the GSIII. It all comes down to personal opinion.
He did all of his tests with a live wallpaper running in the background on the s3. It still won.
i'm not a tech genuis and as much as i love the galaxy s3, can you please say something about the music player?
The SGSIII screen annoying because it doesn't get very bright? I think the only time I really need a bright display is in the sun and that isn't a problem with the HD AMOLED so I guess it won't matter.
Don't worry they actually give you a color mode setting so you can have it look more 'LCD' like if you want. I guess he forgot to mention that.
On the video test, why does the android (beep) come through on the (what is labeled) as the iPhone 4s video?
Also, I agree with the other comments that it says something that ALL new phones coming out. The iPhone 4S is a little more than a year old and is just now starting to feel out-dated. The GSIII will be out dated in a few months....whether by the NEW iPhone or another Android device.
Why do reviewers always complain about the s3 colour, yet they never change the settings from vibrant to natural?
This comparison doesn't matter a bit to me. I'm a fan of both for small reasons. I'm a tech nerd, so I love rooting my S2 and I really enjoy the screen size. I like the iphone for it's syncing ability to my employees macs to gather data quickly. I will wait to upgrade when the next big thing comes out after the S III as my S2 seems as quick, or quicker than any current phone, and it never lets me down.. personal preference everyone. No reason to get into a dumb argument each time :)
say what? Why would they remove flash from android?
personally, i like the vibrant colors more than the old-looking pictures from the iphone. maybe its just me but it does seem to pop out more with the samsung display.
The thing that gets me about people is when they the s3's too vibrant but you have an option in the phone to make the colors more natural like the iPhone or more colorful so its not like your limited to the default coloration. Check your facts.
I think its to control the noise. The quality is fantabuloso on GSI. It gets super loud though, so that's probably why they made it quieter, if he went to a crowd of people it would probably be easier to hear him over everyone else.
I have the 4s and when i play games i can't see what im doing because my thumb covers half the screen. I am going to get the s3 in a week or so, all the reviews i watched shows that it's boss
What the fuck happen to video sound on the galaxy s 3. Very disappointed by the 1080p sound . Looks like its still a toss up between this or the HTC One X
it matters so much how fast the calander app opens for me....
the major issue with comparing phones or even computers using the same apps but under different operating systems is the fact that no matter what, each is using a different programming language. One of the apps could be naively java and one could be not.
also at 6:52 the pinch to zoom was not smooth on the iphone, it stuttered
Can't say I agree with you regarding the design of the iPhone 4S being dated looking. It looks no more dated than any other phone on the market. And the S3 basically looks like a cross between a iPhone 4 and 3GS design with the white or black color, with silver trim. And how can you speak of bulky in terms of thickness when the S3 may be very slightly thinner but it is huge which makes it for a more bukly clunky feel. You are completely right about the back glass being a liability.
The bit about how the colors compare was flawed.

I just don't like the stock android keyboard, but install the apple keyboard emulator makes the experience better.
Overall, i'm liking the S3 so far.
yes there is a shortcut for camera on the iphone on the lock screen
Not really a surprise considering that neither the mobile OSes nor games/apps are really optimized for quadcores, yet...
Well i would think the Iphone 4s would have more sales considering the S3 came out may 29, and the 4s has been out on the market since October 14th...
why does the audio quality suck so much on the S3? it's a 1080p video, but audio quality is like shit
How do people drop their iPhone. Have had my iPhone 4 since launch day no case, no invisshield and no cracks.
Yeah and then showed an animation until the info was displayed, which was then exactly at the same time as the S3.
I don't know if you realized what i meant. I meant that if it was good for you then great, but it's not for everyone. My first comment was when everyone was bashing samsung so i tried to put a stop to it. If the phone is good for you then great.

Fact: You have a better video and picture viewing experience
Fact: You went over about a 5th of the GS III's features and went over all of the iPhone's
Probably because this video was in June when the iPhone 5 didn't come out for like 3 months after...
The iPhone mic sounds way better than the S3, but quality is far superior on the S3 compared to the iPhone. The iPhone was also fairly shaky (even after you had a good grip on it).

iPhone 5 here i come
My friends have crashes and disconnected calls on their iPhone 4S with 5.1 all the time, it happens.
The iPhone back casing cracks? o_O
Wow, now I'm REALLY glad to have a Samsung Galaxy S3.
GTA3 test was unfair. iOs never had real multitasking (It just freezes apps in background, excellent test would be launch Angry birds on both, minimize, wait a bit, maximize, the music on galaxy s3 will progress further), while android does real multitasking (Or let's say just does multitasking).

Nice that you made a video comparison, and seems that the SGIII does video nicely
it would be nice if you compare camera (photos) performance, specially in low light
software has limits.
"i pay for quality instead of quantity (processor power/cores)"
s3 has better/more of
1. infinite contrast ratio
2. display being upgraded ppi and much harder due to sub pixel design.
3. Quad
4. Upgraded OS thru OTA and constant development.
5. Desktop
6. Flexibility and choice.
YOU ARE PAYING FOR AN INFERIOR PRODUCT. AND CLEARLY YOU ARE AN APPLE FANBOI
And yeah it does work. It work slower... and not as nice screen and ram and so on.....
Definitely better sound quality on the iPhone 4s in the last comparison, but both had great video quality. I'd definitely choose the Galaxy S III, though, because for me, it beat the iPhone 4s on every other aspect, but that's probably only down to preferences.

The mic sucks on the SG3
He said it right. Weird time to compare. I pretty sure the new iPhone will be better. But iPhone 4S (a year old phone) still did give SIII a good fight.!
You know what, I have an iPhone 4S and I pretty enjoy using it... You all think that a bigger screen or more ram makes the phone, but it's not so... And who the fuck needs a micro SD slot when you have 64 GB internal storage O_o...

thats not fair,you have a live wallpaper on the s3,if u put a stock wallpaper the s3 will be way faster
funniest thing to check old tech videos.
Maybe. Keep in mind the iPhone 4S came out more than a year ago. A lot of people like myself will tolerate Apple's restrictions vice having a laggy OS that always crashes. Although, Jelly Bean looks FANTASTIC!!! My boys at apple better be up to something!!
the pebble blue is accually, a lighter blue around the bezzle
"compare them in everyway that matters" first test-how fast it turns on
Heres the major difference between the Iphone and the SGS3... even if stock of the SGS3 was slower then the Iphone 4s, you can modify the actual rom of the phone and thus get extra speed out of it where as with the iPhone you simply get what comes with it...
For camera speed, the Iphone doesn't have a shortcut directly from the unlock screen, so no competition there anyway :P
i dont get this whole "LCD" is more natural arguement, firstly it doesnt really matter unless your into photography and to me since ive been using super amoled for years i would say that the LCD looks washed out, not natural, thats just my opinion, and also, any display that cant display black and displays it as "Greyish" isnt really natural in the first place :P Basically, LCD better for reading, SuperAmoled better for overall viewing of videos photos and multimedia etc.
Wow, according to these test, there were no noticeable differences. Just physical hardware.
3:17 ''the Galaxy S3 is thinner than the iPhone 4S..'' YOU DON'T SAY.
when do the Iphone 5 come out? :D
Was that video made in one shot? Impressive ^^
iPhone doesn't look that bad for a phone that's replaced soon
You are definitely wrong dude. Try to search on the web about "Do iOS Apps Crash More Than Android Apps?"
S-Voice was just an improvement of the voice recognition software already in android!
Also Apple took the notification tray from android
GTA3 has a frame rate cap on android. Until the devs update it the GS3/One X won't run at their full FPS potential. It's almost half of what the SGS3 can do. Not Samsung's fault, developers fault.
The iphone i used wasn't a fake. Haven't you seen that iOS users experience more crashes than android users? So the galaxy s3 crashes in the video, just because it crashes here doesn't mean it crashes all the time. My friend downloaded N.O.V.A. 2 on his iphone and it crashed and wouldn't load at all. It messed up his iphone and Apple made him buy another one for $250. I bet you never even tried a galaxy s3, so just admit that the 4s lost and wait for the iphone 5 and the real comparison.
NOT knocking android, just pointing out an interesting quirk: so far I've watched 6 SIII vs iPhone4 videos on youtube, and in every single one, the SIII had a crash at least once during the testing. :\
So a white iPhone with stainless steel band looks dated... But a white Samsung with a silver band looks "beautiful"? CSB
ironically at 8:02, there was a galaxy s3 ad on the iphone 4s :D
yer how did u know! STALKER!
anyways at the end of the video he was filming with a iphone and samsung and the sound quality was amazing for iphone and the samsung was echoing. also i have an iphone and you get more detail in the camera. also all over the internet people are saying iphone camera is better. like a boss.
S3 tells you of a crash iphone doesnt it goes back to home screen so its null
It's not about people liking the phone. It's about people thinking/saying the phone is better than the other.
actually i thought they were about the same, siri was faster a few times and s-voice was faster a few times, They were both on a wifi network and i wouldn't say either had an advantage. Be careful on youtube though. Some people put the s3 on 3g so it's slower. The truth is that they are about the same.
