Samsung Galaxy S4 vs. Galaxy Note 2

2013-03-14
hey everybody it's Chris work for mandroid authority and we're here at the Samsung Galaxy s4 launch event in New York City at Radio City Music Hall now we're looking at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and the Samsung Galaxy s4 and despite being from the same family from the same manufacturer they are really pretty different for example the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 has a five and a half inch screen while the s4 has a 5-inch screen now this is only 720p while this is 1080p so in general you have a much higher pixel density in the s4 441 PPI versus around 225 somewhere in that ballpark in the samsung galaxy note 2 now we went ahead and ran some benchmarks on these to look at how the different processors compare because we have a what looks like it could be a Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core processor in the s4 it's a Qualcomm arm v7 chip and we have a quad core Exynos in the samsung galaxy note 2 this is clocked at one point 6 gigahertz while is in the s4 it appears to be clocked at about 1.9 gigaros so let's open up the benchmarks and as you can see the s4 is right now blowing Samsung Galaxy Note 2 away now they make a point in the spec sheets here I was saying that these are not the final specifications that we're looking at so this could change in the future but no matter how you look at it it looks like the s4 is going to be a significantly more powerful phone than the note 2 now looking at battery capacity the note Zhu is kind of the leader here although we haven't looked at real-life battery performance the note 2 has a 3100 milliamp hour battery while the s4 only has a 2600 milliamp hour battery like I said though we don't know the real-world performance here obviously these the note 2 is a much larger following this isn't very useful for one-handed operation even with these special enhancements and Samsung's included in software whereas the s4 from just handling it here at the launch event it seems like it'd be much easier to actually use this just one hand the Samsung Galaxy s4 is the thinner of the two devices and generally smaller around this has been Chris book from Android authority we're here at the s4 launch event and we're going to bring you even more comparisons with a bunch of different devices and the Samsung Galaxy s4
