Techugo, a top mobile development company in Noida, India
Brings forth the head-to-head comparison between two leading smart phones; iPhone 6S and Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, to zap your fictional expectations.
2. Comparison Shots
TechUgo, best mobile app development company, Noida, India, has brought the head-to-head comparison of two
leading smart phones; from design to display and price to power.
World has encountered the beauty of iPhone 6 & Samsung S7 and S7 edge .
These two handsets will likely prove to be two of the most compelling choices on the market. But what about now? How
does Samsung's new flagship device stack up against Apple's 2015 crown jewel, the iPhone 6S?
Let’s unveil the curtain of comparison window with TechUgo…..
3. Design
• Both phones represent minimal design changes from their predecessors.
• Apple's 6S design is virtually similar to that of the iPhone 6, though a little thicker due to the use of more durable
aluminium alloy, but does have the addition of a rose gold colour option. It's an aluminium unibody, with curved edges,
exposed antenna bands and a protruding camera module.
• Galaxy S7, its case is a metal and glass setup. It's nice, but can become grubby without a case. However, the Galaxy is
waterproof – an IP68 rating means it can be submerged in depths of five feet for up to half an hour.
4. Display
Galaxy S7 is an impressive piece of kit.It's a SuperAMOLED display with Quad HD resolution (1440 x 2560), meaning
an impressive pixel density of 577ppi and an incredibly sharp-looking display with deep blacks and rich colours. There's
also a new "always on" screen function that displays information such as the time and date even when the phone is
switched off. Galaxy S7's screen is 18 per cent larger - 5.1ins.
In contrast, the iPhone 6S uses an LCD setup with a pixel density of 326ppi – the same as Apple smart phones
introduced in 2010. It's still "fairly sharp", according to Gizmag but not on par with the Galaxy. iPhone’s screen is 4.7ins
with a pressure-sensing display that offers new ways to navigate the phone based on how hard certain icons are
pressed.
5. Hardware
The Galaxy S7 uses the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset, though the UK version should get an Exynos
8890 octa-core processor instead, mated to 4GB of RAM. The Galaxy is only available as a 32GB model, has a
micro SD card slot for expandable storage.
The SD card slot means the Galaxy S7's storage can be boosted by 200GB and given that around 8GB of the
phone's memory is already occupied by bloatware straight out of the box, it's a feature that's bound to be popular.
iPhone 6S, use only 2GB RAM and makes use of Apple's A9 chip. It is available with 16GB, 64GB and 128GB.
Both phones have dual-band 11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS and NFC, although the iPhone's is only for Apple
Pay. Neither has a removable battery, but the Samsung's is much larger – a 3000mAh cell that can be charged
wirelessly compared to Apple's 1715mAh battery.
6. Camera
Samsung has actually reduced the overall megapixel count of its camera hardware down to 12MP, giving better
shots in the dark and overall improved image quality.
Both phones can record 4K video and have 240 frames per second slow-motion functions, although the Galaxy S7
sports optical image stabilization and has a better front-facing camera, too.
7. Software
The Galaxy S7 ships with Android Marshmallow 6.0 and Samsung's TouchWiz skin, which could cause problems as
the nature of the TouchWiz means Samsung has to tweak it after every Android update.
As for the iPhone, iOS remains the same well-known, simplistic, easy-to-update and smooth experience with plenty
of app support.
8. Bonus Feature
One of the biggest bonuses with the Galaxy S7 is its compatibility with the joint Samsung-Oculus-made Gear VR
headset. The £80 device, which was free for customers who pre-ordered Galaxy S7, are billed as giving one of the
best and most accessible virtual reality experiences around. The headset can be used with apps such as NextVR
for immersive, live, 180-degree broadcasts for the likes of sports events and even presidential debates, as well as
games.
These Virtual reality headsets are available for the iPhone 6S, too, though not official Apple-made ones. As for the
iPhone 6S, the pressure-sensitive 3D touch screen is something the Galaxy S7 can't match. It provides a new way
to navigate the phone's menus, allowing users to access text messages and notifications at a glance.
9. 6S Plus vs Galaxy S7 Edge
Undoubtedly, both the phones have Phablet siblings in the form of the Galaxy S7 Edge and iPhone 6S Plus.
Both are 5.5ins handsets but while the iPhone 6S plus gets a higher pixel density over the smaller phone at
401ppi, the S7 Edge, with a ppi of 534, loses focus a little compared to its smaller sibling.
Both command a premium over the standard devices and feature more or less the same specs, although slightly
larger batteries are a given, considering their sizes.
10. Price
The Galaxy comes in slightly above the iPhone, with prices starting from £569 for the standard S7 and £639 for
the 5.5ins S7 edge phablet.
As for the iPhone 6S, the 4.7ins model starts from £539 – some £30 less. It's a similar saving with the Plus, which
comes in at £619.
A price drop could be on the cards, too, if you're willing to wait a few months. Idealo has compiled data from
previous Galaxy phone launches and says that based on historic trends, the S7 could be 21 per cent cheaper
three months after going on sale and almost 30 per cent cheaper in six months.
By then, the iPhone 7 will be just around the corner so if predictions are true, the S7 should hold a distinct price
advantage over its main Apple competitor.
