Ha! sold my iPhone 4 in September and got myself a galaxy S II for my birthday. Had it for almost 3 months now and the terrible screen & lack of quality apps/games has taken its toll.. tonight i bought myself a white 4S for christmas
the Galaxy S II is going on Craigslist
Hahahahah. I did the very same thig. Had a Galaxy S, got sick and tired of the choppy, laggy, buggy Android. The apps are horrible for Android. Only few work with no downfall.
Sick of battery pulls all the time for hangups
I went as far as adding a line to my plan to dump Android and bought myself a white 4s and WOW oh WOW is it soooooo much smoother.
This phone does exactly what I ask it to. I tap something it opens quickly.
I swipe and it moves smooth and precise. The wifi speed is insane compared to the galaxy.
Where my Fascinate side by side on other end of house had NO signal, the 4s has full signal from router and its fast. The Fasc never tagged over 17Mb/s on WiFi sitting 2 feet away, the 4s is real smooth and zings over the 35Mb/s and then holds steady 25(my service) even on other end of house.
The color reproduction on the iPhone is so much better....its actually correct. The galaxy phones have punched colors, but the whites take on a green hue as the trade off.
The camera is head and shoulders better.
Im a professional photographer and Im gonna step in here and say some things about the camera to correct those who mis spoke about the camera in comparison to Nexus and Galaxy.
Its much better. Most phones at ISO 160 start to fall apart. In low light, all phones suffer.
See its not just pixels guys, its the size of those pixels and how the signal is converted. The size of the pixels dictate how much light they see. Then its amplified in low light and thats where grain comes in and color and detail fall off.
I shot some inside last night, was looking at the images in CS5 and was amazed how well they look inside with just overhead lighting.
Then I realized they were at ISO 800!!!!! Thats insane how they look for that ISO. Most phones above 160 look like these at 800.....then most dont even go over 400.
Let me say how this can translate to more keepers. That image was captured at ISO800 1/30th of a second.....and on this device its acceptable
to get sharp, shake free images at 1/30th handheld. Borderline acceptable, if the subject moves it will be blurred, but this was a sleeping cat, so as long as I can keep stable, 1/30 is ok for handheld.
Well, on my Galaxy S, it wont go to ISO800(if it did it would look like cement), so at ISO 400 to keep same exposure, the image would have been recorded at 1/15th and that's too slow to avoid camera shake. Thus blurry image and you toss it. If you drop that to ISO 200 for more acceptable quality, you get to 1/6th and nothing is sharp there.
