Nowadays, Smartphone is one of the important things in our daily life, it allows user to check email and offer a complete internet experience. Besides that, Smart Phone is one device that takes care of your handheld computing and communication needs in a single, small package. In Malaysia, Samsung S3 and iPhone 5 have been introduced and became popular as compared to other smart phone. (“2012 Fendelman,” par.2)
The Samsung S3 is a smart phone developed by Samsung. The device was released in 28 European and Middle Eastern countries on 29 May 2012, before being progressively released in other major markets in June 2012, prior to release, 9 million pre-orders were placed by more than 100 carriers globally. Interestingly this Samsung S3 using

Before going to the specs war, design is a very important matter to many buyers. In the case of metal versus plastic, and hard lines against smoother curves, the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S3 have quite different approaches to handset design ("2013 Williams").
Apple has taken aggressive measures to make the iPhone 5 as thin as possible. The two iPhone models released prior to the iPhone 5 featured have glass panels on the front and rear, which gave the phone’s a hard and solid feel. However, rear glass plate has now been replaced with metal and aluminium that lets iPhone 5 very slim and lightweight phone ("2013 Williams," par. 8).
Besides that, the iPhone 5 model is just 7.6 millimetres thin with the weight 112 gram ("2012 Brooke Crothers"). To make that happen, Apple engineers had to think small, and they used aluminium to make iPhone 5 thin and lightweight phone. They also created a Nano-SIM card, which is 44 per cent smaller than a micro-SIM ("iPhone," par.3).
The back of iPhone 5 is made of anodized 6000 series aluminum which is the same material used in Apple notebooks, with inlays techniques along the top and bottom made of ceramic glass (on the white and silver model) or pigmented glass (on the black and slate model) ("iPhone," par. 7)
The design for Samsung model is more larger compared to Apple because Samsung has concentrated on designing the Galaxy S3 to fit the palm of the hand, it might be larger than the iPhone 5, but due to the
And the front is more attractive too” (Crothers). The new transformation of the iPhone 5 in 2012 still has many people turning their heads and observing the phone. When people look past the functionality of the phone and see the design for its aesthetic beauty and design, it is a no-brainer that the iPhone’s sharp yet soft appearance can attract so many people to buy the phone. Apple completely redesigned the iPhone when the iPhone 5 was released and this only has strengthened Apple and has brought many people to turn away from Android. The design is very sharp and razor like at the edges but the center is soft and a great contrast to the edge. The thinness of the phone is spectacular and also strengthens the clarity of the phone’s sharpness. The iPhone also has a retina display that is designed to create optimal viewing of a screen with the right amount of PPI (pixels per inch), so the view is never distorted but crystal clear. A sharp design and crystal clear screen has aided the iPhone and showed many that the iPhone is clearly crafted better than an Android device.
The new phone moves away from the G4's design scheme with its back-mounted volume buttons. Instead opting for more traditional side-mounted buttons. The G5 also allows for a number of different modular attachments which can be installed by completely removing the phone's lower portion. This means that the G5 is easily upgradable, and can have a much longer lifespan than most other commercially available smartphones.
The resolution of the Iphone 5s is 640 x 1136 pixels. However, the Galaxy S5 has better resolution since it has 1080 x 1920 pixels. The Iphone 5s has a pixel density of 326 ppi. However, the Galaxy S5 has a pixel density of 432 ppi which means it can fit more pixels on the screen than the Iphone 5s’ screen. One benefit that the touch screen of the Galaxy S5 has over the Iphone 5s is its multi touch screen. The multi touch screen on the Galaxy S5 allows the user to be able to touch the touch screen in more than location simultaneously. One feature of the display specification of the Galaxy S5 has that the Iphone 5s does not have is the scratch resistant glass .That means users who have the Galaxy S5 won’t have worry about getting scratches on the screen of their phones. However, Iphone 5s users will have to be careful with their phones if they do not want their phones to get scratches.

Apple recently released a phone called an iPHONE X but they got their OLED screen
Innovation and R&D spending are signals of rivals’ competitive position. The key competitors in the Smartphone industry as of 2007 were RIM, Palm, Sony Ericsson, Nokia, Motorola, and Apple. Each company holds a patent on its own operating system (OS) or a system based on Microsoft’s Window Mobile OS. Safe and secure voice and data transmission is critical to building a good reputation among consumers. The appearance, design and
However, because of the fact that Apple refuses to allow other manufacturers to use the iPhone’s IOS software, there are only six models of the iPhone. Differences in appearance are evident as well. For example, higher-end Android phones have been noted for their screens that are much larger than that of the iPhone. However, this limits the screen’s resolution, which is much greater on the iPhone for this very reason.
I assume that the design of the phone is the fundamental component that will draw the consumer's attention. The Galaxy S4's dimensions are 5.38 x 2.75 x .31 inches. The S4 materializes in four different colors: black, white, brown, blue, red purple pink, and light pink. From a glimpse, you will notice that it is covered in plastic, which is actually polycarbonate chassis, it incorporates a removable rear cover, and that there is a silver trim that goes around the sides. On the front, there is a 2-megapixel front facing camera and LED notification lights. On the back, there is a 13 megapixel camera, LED flash, and speakers. The Note 3's dimensions are 5.95 x 2.75 x .33 inches. The Note 3 is obviously larger than the S4, and from a glance, the Note 3 looks outwardly different. The Note 3 was
The two phones I compare are my friend Barb and mine. Barb’s phone is Apple iPhone Five C and mine is LG Optimus F7. These are two different brand phones.
The Samsung Galaxy S III, on the other hand, is a feature-rich monster. With a dual-core 1.5Ghz processor, the smartphone is very fast and responsive. Any myth of Android delay has been crushed with the fast processor and 2GB of system RAM. The Galaxy S III is available with 16GB or 32GB internal storage, PLUS you can add a micro SD card of up to 64GB. The iSO system of the iPhone is very structured and therefore you are not able to customize the phone, whereas the less structure Android system is built with customization in mind. They want you to make the phone yours.
The iPhone 6 is an aluminum phone with rounded corners. The iPhone has 4.7 inch and 5.5 inch variants. The LG G3 is plastic and is about 5.5 inches. The appearances of the phones are close in color and each can be purchased in black, gold, or silver. The iPhone has it power button and volume buttons on the
From its plastic colored backing designed and advertised specifically for “the colorful” to the weight of the phone, the iPhone 5C took a different route than Apple’s previous generations of smartphones. Compared with the iPhone 5, 5S, and other companies’ phones released during 2012 and 2013, the 5C gave up Apple’s usual design element of sleekness for individuality by including a colored backing that came in five colors. These were used to give the customer more a variety than iPhones previously offered.
The iPhone X greatly attracts customers due to its new, sleek physical appearance, which is an understandable reason for its price. A key component of the interest in the iPhone X is the larger screen. It has 82.9% screen-to-body ratio compared to the iPhone 8’s 65.6% screen-to-body ratio (Gordon). This is very helpful to consumers because it uses show-watching and book-reading apps to their full potential by providing more room for them to fill up the phone. Videos, pictures, social media apps are more enjoyable on the big screen as well, improving just about every experience the phone user has (Titcomb). Additionally, a new form of technology has been added to the screen to enhance the viewing experience, as well as improved upon previous features. The Telegraph writer, James Titcomb wrote, “Apple has introduced what it calls Super Retina, and what everyone else calls OLED, to an iPhone for the first time.” This new modification allows for greater resolution and higher contrast on the screen, such as 1,000,000:1 vs 1,400:1. Reportedly, the iPhone X also has the highest increased resolution, pixel count, and contrast of any previous iPhone. Overall, these advancements allow for photos and videos to look great and leaves the viewer more satisfied with every feature and app (Titcomb). Lastly, certain aspects of its appearance were changed to appeal more to the public, changing its face value. Two distinct characteristics were the glass backing and the chrome edges. Titcomb said, “the edges are chrome - a nice throwback to the iPhone 4, which many considered to be
