Timing is everything in the industry. In an instant a smartphone is being hailed with a shout, and the next, another latest smartphone unseated him and is taking the spotlight - apparently removing the fanfare surrounding the former. This is what we saw last week when Samsung Galaxy Note 3 at the beginning of last month and became the center of attention, and after a week was presented the Apple terminal removing part or all of the leadership the Korean smartphone. Today we bring you a comparison between the two terminal, look for logos of their respective brands.
Design
Honestly, there is nothing really new in any of the two designs, as the iPhone 5S recycles the design of its predecessor, while the Note 3 receive a subtle redesign its back cover imitation leather, but keeping all lines Samsung Galaxy range in recent years.
Regardless, is the iPhone 5s that still has a build quality and attractive design mainly attributed to its robust brushed aluminum casing. Although Samsung adds a new texture back cover with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is still a plastic device in the background, it does not have the same sense of luxury and quality that the iPhone 5S.
When it comes to size there is no doubt that the Apple terminal is best suited to use with one hand that the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, especially when you intend to carry in a pocket, which with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is task almost impossible. What if you have the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 against Apple terminal is a removable back cover which gives access to the battery and microSD slot for memory expansion, thing that lacks the iPhone 5S.
Software. Experience of use
As you all know by now Apple has revamped its entire operating system iOS ofrenciéndonos its latest version 7. And the truth is that the great change provided Google's operating system has sat well beyond the faults that have been submitted since the day it was released.
In the case of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 have Android 4.3 Jelly Bean covered by Samsung's TouchWiz layer. Like iOS versions prior to 7 we looked old, is now Samsung's TouchWiz which has that aura of antiquity and iOS 7 cool appearance. iOS7 is very focused on the small details and is intended to be very dramatic TouchWiz using very beautiful animations and transitions supported by the powerful graphical terminal.
However, when it comes to functionality and customization is TouchWiz which takes the upper hand. With iOS 7, Apple has come to Android in some issues like the treatment of the reports or managing multitasking, although the Korean terminal which takes this to a higher level. For example, Sammsung Android offers true multitasking while Apple offers just a change between tasks but not true multitasking.
As for the keyboard, which has always been one of the strengths of iOS, this situation is still maintained as the keyboard of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, which has greatly improved in recent times, still has hair that is to say as accurate as the iPhone 5S. Although this difference is becoming smaller.
Hardware. Screen
The first thing that strikes about the screen is the screen. In this case the screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 eclipses with ease to iPhone 5S screen. On the one hand we have a substantially greater size, 5.7 inches vs. 4 inches of the iPhone 5S. As for resolution there is no possible comparison, 640 × 1136 compared to 1920 × 1080.
Each has its strengths and weaknesses, of course, but when it comes to outdoor visibility, is the iPhone 5S is still the winner. And when it comes to colors, the screen of the iPhone 5S produces more realistic colors. At the counter of a shop next to each other, it is clear that the most striking is the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
Hardware. Processor and memory
Being the top end of their respective brands does everyone have inside the best in processors that can be found on the market. On the one hand we have the iPhone 5S with its new Apple A7 to 1.3 MHz being the first 64-bit mobile processor. Equally impressive is the Snapdragon 800 for one version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to 2.3 MHz clock speed and impressive charge Adreno 330 graphics. In the case of Apple processor is dual core for quad-core Samsung case. On the subject of RAM will have 3 GB in the case of terminal 1GB Korean and in the case of the iPhone 5S.
The mass storage issue in the case of iPhone 5S is reduced to one of the three available versions of 16GB, 32GB or 64GB. Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 have 32GB of internal storage but yes, expandable via microSD cards.
However, remember the numerical values themselves are not anything significant in terms of the experience offered by each terminal to have different operating systems.
Hardware: Connectivity
In this regard we find many similarities between the two devices. The two terminals have GPS, Bluetooth 4.0 and dual-band 802.11 b / g / n Wi-Fi. In the case of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has two features that are not present on the iPhone 5S. For one NFC connectivity, which Apple refuses to enter into their products, and on the other an IR port that can allow function as a remote control.
Hardware: Cameras
In this section are two of the best cameras on smartphones. On the one hand we have the main CAMRA iPhone 5S with 8 Megapixel and exceptional quality in all conditions. On the other hand we have the 13 Megapixel camera that equips the Korean terminal and is very close to the quality provided by the camera of iPhone 5S.
For video we say that the iPhone 5S recorded at 1080p but the camera of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 records video at 4K resolution. The latter being a feature currently only present in a terminal as the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
Comparison: IPhone 5S vs Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Conclusions
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is a terminal oriented those who enjoy the power and your terminal has multiple functionalities. In some cases the functionalities provided by the Korean terminal can reach the point of saturation and overwhelming the user.
Instead Apple terminal is not so much in power nor in providing hundreds of functions. Moreover, it could be considered a single terminal with few features when compared to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. But this is not because the features offered is that all users will use and offers not seldom to be used on a smartphone. To conclude and to bring forth your own conclusions you leave a video comparing the two terminals.
