iPhone 6 vs Samsung GS5 | Which Smartphone Should You Buy?

If you have been saving up some Christmas money, and you are looking to buy yourself a new smartphone, or maybe one for a family member (BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER!!!), and you cannot decide between an iPhone 6 and a Samsung Galaxy S5, then you have come to the right place! I will be doing another technological VS, and we are going to compare the iPhone 6 and the Samsung GS5, based on these categories: design, speaker, storage, and performance. So let’s get started, and see who wins!

Design: The iPhone 6 is 8.1 mm thick, has a soft plastic back, and is totally water-resistant! On the other had, the Samsung GS5 is 6.9 mm thick, and is all black. The iPhone has a display screen of 1334 x 750, while the Samsung GS5 has a display screen of 1920 x 1080 HD, which is much better for watching videos and playing games. So in this category, I am going to say that the iPhone 6 won, but just barely.

Speaker: You might not call this important, but it is if you need to take a business call or listen to music without headphones. In this category, they both are fairly decent, but here the iPhone has the speaker on the side, while the GS5 has it on the back. For listening to films and TV shows, the iPhone is much more preferable, and is a lot louder. However, when you get it loud enough it gets distorted, while the Samsung GS5 offers much more clarity. The winner for this round is going to have to be the Samsung GS5, mainly because of the clarity, even if it has a bit lower volume. I guess that should encourage you guys to get headphones!

Storage: The iPhone 6 comes in three storage models, one with 16 GB, one with 64 GB, and one with 128 GB. However, the Samsung GS5 comes in only 16 GB, but has a microSD card which you can buy at $100, and has 128 GB in it. That is about half the price of an iPhone 6 with 128 GB, so if you really need space on your smartphone, then the Samsung GS5 is the winner!

GS5

Performance: When they wrote it on paper, it seemed that the Samsung GS5 is much better. However, when you try it out yourself, you will find that the iPhone 6 is much better and slicker. It is faster and much better than then the Samsung GS5, and will be used more often. Also, the finger-sensor on the iPhone 6 tops the one on the GS5 by a mile, so it looks like the iPhone 6 won this round!

The WInner!: It was a tie! However, if you are looking for a much less pricey and lots of battery life, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is the one to buy. However, if you are looking for a slick phone with awesome software and apps, go for the iPhone 6! But, if you were going to get me a smartphone for Christmas, then I would definitely want the iPhone 6, because it is the latest fashion and has all the top-rated apps.
