all right it is Josh a regard from Andhra Authority what is going on everybody and we are taking a look at there we go we're taking a look at the Samsung Galaxy s4 and comparing it to pretty much any phone that we can get our hands on at the moment so what we're looking at here we're just gonna go ahead and get back to the home screens on the s4 here there we go so what we're looking at here is a comparison between the samsung galaxy s4 and v well-known apple iphone 5 now one thing you're going to know is that even though it's called the iPhone 5 it has a 4-inch screen so over on the galaxy s4 on the other hand you have a 5 inch screen so naming nomenclatures inside what we're going to be talking about is the fact that the samsung galaxy s4 is indeed a very powerful device that pretty much blows away the iPhone 5 I was getting confused there that blows the iPhone 5 out of the water you're going to see real quick inside of the Geekbench go and geek bench benchmark that there is your performance right there Geekbench does tell us that there is a Qualcomm ARM version 7 in here that's clocked in at 1.9 gigahertz while the a6 made by Apple in here only clocks in at 1.3 so the Apple iPhone does have a lap 11 law of catching up to do if the Samsung Galaxy s4 is any indication of what Android is possible and it really is what you're also looking at here as far as the field goes is you have the 4 inch screen on the iPhone 5 that is big that makes it pretty easy to grip but at the same time it's also lacking in a way if any of you are used to your 5-inch pins at this point that phone 5 is really not going to be a great companion for you on the other hand companion is the word that they're using for the Samsung Galaxy s4 because it is supposed to be able to enhance so many parts of your life that includes being able to take your memories and put them in a photo book that also includes even calorie counting and a lot of other features that Samsung has decided to put into the Samsung Galaxy s4 that is really just making it far and beyond more of a phone than less of a phone and more of really a personal assistant a lot of ways as far as the field on this one goes though it is a 5-inch screen but what you will realize is that when you put it in your hand it is very easy to grip and hold at 130 grams it is certainly a very nimble phone it's a very nimble device to put in the hand it's very easy to handle and it's actually quite light it was also a pretty thin at 7.9 millimeters and as far as the interface goes you are going to get Android jelly bean 4.2.2 on here so it is fully updated but you do get TouchWiz on top of it which does have some enhancements on top of it as well for example the screen itself is now able whoops you get back over here the screen itself is now able to register not just touches but also the fact that your finger is close to the screen so as you can see I was able to swipe in and if you go over here to the gallery be able to hover over I think an album you know see all the pictures underneath some really really great functionality inside the Galaxy s4 that quite honestly the iPhone 5 is not able to match at least not yet we'll see what they have as an answer to this incredible phone the stem cell galaxy s4 alright so it is Joshua Carr from Android authority and we are here live at the launch event for the Galaxy s4 so we're going to continue comparing this phone to all of the other top devices on the market so stay tuned because we are your source for all things Andrew
