Iphone 4 vs Samsung Galaxy S2

What is your personal opinion about the 2 phones.
Sent from my Rooted GT-I9100 Cognition S2 v1.08 using XDA Premium App

My opinion is that they cannot be compared. Not because of the fanyboyism that will blind some, but that they are entire different generations of hardware. The iPhone 4 was released over a year ago, and the Galaxy S2 was just released. The original Galaxy S is what should be compared to the iphone 4 because of the similar specs/release date. Saying that I feel the Galaxy S2 is obviously the superior phone.

Stop feeding teh troll
Youre looking at a crackflashing troll with ORD

quality vs. high powered
simply just own both of them. i used to have 4 iphones back in august. 1 2g, 2 3g, and a 3gs 32gb.

lol...
I prefer just to have one phone, and spend more money on cheese.

I'm neutral, but interesting to note that Samsung Galaxy S outsold iPhone 4 in Q1 of this year in Japan. That's quite an achievement for a single Android device.

You can't compare them, the galaxy obviously has better hardware and it runs Android, can't compare any Android device with any ios device in my opinion there both in classes of there own, the only true test would be to run Android on the iPhone and vice versa, but in terms of hard ware the 1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 processor in the 4 hasn't got any where near the power of the Dual-core 1.2GHz ARM Cortex-A9 proccessor, then the g2 has double the RAM and full hd recording, there is no contest, is have one but I'm a HTC man just waiting for them to release a nice big dual core

And buttered toast. And tea while you're at it.

galaxy has better harware

Compared to the S2, the iPhone 4 is WORTHLESS in every aspect. It's not even a comparison, they're worlds apart.

Have a SGS and a iphone 4,
Overall like the SGS more for tweeking, gave the iphone 4 to my GF and she loves it lol

So, according to you, the iPhone is like your d!ck?
I jest, I jest.

I think this will be an endless loop, cuz igone 5 will be better, den sgs3 will be better and so on

Well, the Loyal Apple Users will obviously always choose iPhone 4 over any other phone, without comparing the hardware. In terms of software, it all comes down to personal choice really. Some people prefer the iOS, while most others prefer Android. But the Samsung Galaxy S II beats the iPhone 4 hands down when it comes to hardware, so its obviously the better phone imo.

Pentium 4 vs Dual Core Netbook

I'm very out of touch with PC and laptop/netbook benchmarks.
A friend is asking me if I want to buy his HP Mini netbook for $150, its running Ubuntu with a 1.6ghz dual core processor, also 2GB RAM
I'm currently running a desktop running Pentium 4 from almost 10 years ago, its a custom built alienware, 2GB RAM. Still runs great
Is it worth giving the P4 to my dad and getting the netbook?
I only internet surf, watch videos, network, etc.

Id say go for it, dual core makes a boat load of difference in performance.

Its a dual core atom.

Don't you diss the all mighty Atom! I remember when i had an Acer Aspire One A150 with a single core Atom. It rocked my world. It ran GTA Vice City!

Any more advice?
-Sent from my Droid 2-

Bumping for advice.

I don't mean to hijack this thread. But I have an Acer Aspire One with the Intel Atom N550, which is a dual core atom at 1.6 GHz. It has 2GB of ram. I put Ubuntu 11.10 on it and it runs like a beast. I use it only for my school work. Typing papers, power point lectures, school email, and the occasional internet browsing. Should I keep Ubuntu or put Windows XP on it. I know XP is a little out dated, but it would run like a beast on this setup. What would you guys do? Should I keep Ubuntu for what I need it for, or should I use XP for the stated above?

Either one would work I would think, since Ubuntu is lightweight as it is, its probably a better long term choice, but either is probably great.

I'm running an Acer aspire with a dual core atom with 2 gb of ram on Ubuntu. It runs super awesome. If he only wants 160 for it I say do it.

I have an Asus 1215B (AMD Dual-Core Processor E350 with AMD Mobility Radeon HD 6310). I was looking for an Intel Atom Netbook then I found this and let me say that it really rocks. It feels snappier against every atom netbook I've tested it against. I also didn't have any problem to make various linux distro run on this, it is based on Amd Fusion platform which is rapidly growing amongst linux communities so I suggest this netbook
I usually develop software for android using this netbook while on the go and I haven't had any problem with it. looking forward to replace the hd with an ssd one, done that it will be perfect for my needs

What is your favorite device!!!

My favorite is the asus eeepad transformer prime!!! What ya got XDA!

T-Mobile offers the SII for free with a two year contract. Of course, you will have to pay the taxes and activation fee, but will be within your budget.

Try looking at the Galaxy S or Galaxy S 2. Anything lower than that would not be good for HARDCORE GAMING

Both are above budget well i use galaxy mini for gaming .its quite well..i think the devices i stated abive will do well too

It's an awful Froyo device. Also it's not ICS ROM capable. My friend sold his Optimus Me and got a HTC HD2. Xperia Tipo is the only device that supports 4.x in that price range.

Don't buy Micromax. They are never going to provide any OS update for their phones.

Thinking about your budget and your wants, I just don't think is possible. Why not save up some more, and get a S2. Is there cell service providers in India that offer discounted phones in exchange for a contract?
