iPhone 6 vs Galaxy S5: Everything We Know So Far!

2014-05-31
today's video was powered by lynda.com hey guys johnathan here with TLD hope you guys are doing well and today I want to talk about something I began asked on the regular and that is you know what I'm not really feeling the iPhone 5s it doesn't really appeal to me a galaxy has five looks mighty attractive though but is it enough or should I wait and hold off until the iPhone 6 comes out now before we get any further into this video I want to clearly state that at this point in time there is no definitive answer to that question simply because the iPhone 6 does not exist yet but I have spent quite a bit of time with the galaxy s5 so I know that phone very well and there's been a lot of leaks and information pointing towards the iPhone 6 that allow us to make some educated guesses on what to expect later this fall so with all that said at the very least my hope for this video is that I can help one of you guys come to the conclusion that you know what the f-16 does sound pretty appealing at the very least I'm gonna wait till it comes out and then decide from there or none of that really sounds appealing to me the galaxy s5 still sounds more attractive than what the iPhone 6 could potentially offer so I don't need to wait and I'm gonna jump on the Galaxy s5 now now unless you've been living under a rock and if you do no offense that's cool bro you probably have seen the leaked iphone 2 6 dummy that has taken over the Internet I actually just got a hold one and yes I know a little late to the party but better late than never and I got hooked up by the Apple leaked ninja master sign Dixon so big thanks to him and I'll have him link down below so what you're looking at right now is the iPhone 6 dummy model right next to the Galaxy s5 and at the very least this gives us an idea of what to expect and how each device should feel in your hand now based off this iPhone 6 dummy model this would point us towards the iPhone 6 having a 4.7 inch display with a resolution of 1704 by 960 that's the same exact aspect ratio the iPhone 5 5c and 5s so there wouldn't be any extra screen real estate just a bigger screen now based off those specs that would put the iPhone 6 at a defective 416 pixels per inch which still falls short to the galaxy s5 that has an effect of 432 pixels per inch with a 5.1 inch screen at 1080p now real quickly just cuz I want to point it out and we've all heard it from Apple own that they believe that the four inch smartphone screen size is the ideal one for one-handed use but Tim if that's the case why would you release a larger 4.7 iPhone well Jonathan because of Apple's revolutionary engineering and because the iPhone 6 is so much thinner you can out magically use it with one hand really so I've got a thumbs up for the worst Tim Cook impression on the planet but you know I speak the truth now as far as the guts and internals of the iPhone 6 we can more than likely expect a leaner meaner a8 processor now the a8 processor is rumored to utilize a smaller 20 nanometer process as opposed to the 28 nanometer process found on the a7 and not only is it's gonna help obviously with faster performance but it's also gonna be more energy efficient now one thing that the a8 should share in common with the a7 is just like its predecessor we can't expect it to be of course 64-bit another possibility with the 8 processor is it may be the first quad-core chip to hit an iPhone so I wouldn't necessarily bank on it but if there was gonna be a quad-core if--when I would think that the iPhone 6 would take that crown now before this turns into a flame war or a spec war you got to go back in time when the iPhone 5s and the a7 came out it proves that it's not really about the cores or the specs and it's more so about optimization and performance because the a7 chip which is dual-core mind you still outperform the quad-core chip found in the Galaxy s4 and I would not be surprised if we saw a similar trait happen with the iPhone 6 and the galaxy s5 now as far as RAM goes I think we all know and can agree that Apple is not crazy about RAM upgrade so I think the iPhone 6 will more than likely still utilize and implement 1 gigabyte of ram 2 gigabytes is a possibility but not likely and I think if anything it might meet it in the middle with 1.5 gigs of ram so based off that the galaxy s5 should have the slight edge with two gigs around but again going back to the optimization in software take that into consideration before just solely looking at specs now again based off Apple's track records and how they're not huge fans of jumping up big time in terms of specs I would not be surprised if we saw the iPhone 6 rock an 8 megapixel camera now I know some people might be freaking out and say but wait the galaxy s5 it has a 16 megapixel camera that's got to be infinitely better and before I continue let me point out that the galaxy s5 has a badass camera I really really love that but what we saw in terms of the iPhone 5 to the 5s in terms of low-light performance software enhancements it was actually a considerable upgrade even though the megapixels remain the same now if we were being optimistic for a second and we were really set in our sight hi for the iPhone 6 I think it would max out at 12 megapixels and nothing higher again based off those specs in terms of megapixels the iPhone 6 will fall short to the galaxy s5 but regardless I think both will be awesome camera options in terms of a smart phone because of my experience with the galaxy s5 and I think is awesome and based off Apple's track record and the camera found in the iPhone 5s now another question I've been getting quite a bit is if I think the iPhone 6 will offer you HD or 4k video recording like the galaxy s5 dozen the short answer is no and the fact of the matter is most people aren't ready for 4k that computers not going to be able to handle it in terms of editing and they probably don't have a 4k TV for playback now in no way shape or form and my dissing the galaxy s5 for having 4k I just don't think it's ready for primetime and it's not something that Apple would focus on that because of that what I would expect on the iPhone 6 is obviously better 1080p recording and also improved slow-motion so we saw 720p at 120 frames per second on the iPhone 5s so I think we'll see tan DP at 120 frames per second on the iPhone 6 now as far as features that might make one phone stand out over the other the galaxy s5 is ip67 water-resistant and dustproof I've tested it it works great and that's something I really like about the galaxy s5 as much as I would love the iPhone 6 to have that certification I don't think that's gonna happen so that edge goes to the galaxy s5 now yes I know the galaxy s5 does have a fingerprint reader like we saw in the iPhone 5s but it is nowhere near close in terms of functionality and intuitiveness the iPhone 5s works better in terms of a fingerprint reader so I would expect of course these same from the iPhone 6 the heart rate sensor on the galaxy s5 is cool but it's not a game changer or not really anything special and this isn't a knock against Samsung versus Apple or even Android versus iOS because you can download heart rate sensors on either platform if you guys watch my iPhone 6 top 5 features wish list video which if you did miss I will have linked down below I talked about the possibility of the iPhone sex-having sapphire glass now if Apple is able to implement this and signs are pointing towards them being able to do so that would make daf-16 green pretty much near scratch proof now touching a little further on the sapphire display technology there has been some talks and rumors and even though this is less likely it would still be completely awesome that Apple may implement solar charging technology into the actual display now of course I wouldn't expect it to fully charge your phone with solar energy but at the very least if you're outside if you're indoors in a well-lit area you could at least combat the battery drain and in turn effectively extend your battery life now the galaxy s5 rocks a 2800 milliamp hour battery and I've had no complaints has been pretty solid it's not amazing but I definitely want Apple to step up their game in terms of battery life so I think that gives us a pretty good idea obviously the rest is gonna come down to operating systems and preferences there I personally used and enjoy both the iPhone 6 will feature iOS 8 which I don't expect to be a major overhaul but there should hopefully be some nice improvements to that the galaxy s5 is rocking the latest version of Android which is a plus but you do got to deal with that little bit of TouchWiz lag but in terms of operating systems I think it really comes down to personal preference and in this category this is something that I'll be better able to assess once they actually get both in hand so
