Samsung Galaxy S6 vs. Apple iPhone 6

The output of the Samsung Galaxy S6 has somewhat upset the Android universe. Since the flagship was unveiled at MWC 2015 in Barcelona, ​​was never cried as much plagiarism iPhone 6. Copy or not, the features and functionality of the S6 appear above the flagship of Cupertino.

But is it really better than the iPhone S6? We give you the answers in this comparison of Samsung Galaxy S6 and the iPhone 6 Apple Update: our video comparison of the photographic sensors S6 Galaxy and iPhone 6 was added to the comparison in the Camera Section.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6 are alike. Are they identical?

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6 design

It displaces the question right away: no, the Galaxy S6 is not an iPhone clone 6. Anyway, who cares. What interests us is the quality of design, functionality and user experience of these smartphones.

This was expected, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is constructed of metal and glass. New materials make this device a connected high-end object. Despite a major development, the Galaxy S6 keeps the soul of the Galaxy range of smartphones and it is not displeasing to us.

From our first grip, the Galaxy S6 convincing. It is sober, ultra light and exudes quality. If the Galaxy S5 was not really the weight issue with the iPhone 6 design, the Galaxy S6 it has very strong advantages to win.

Elegance is bonus for the Galaxy S6

The metal frame is very different from those of the Galaxy Note and Galaxy Alpha 4 with an oval style and softer angles. The Galaxy S6 also has a front and a back glass Gorrilla 4. Some will say that this new S6 also somewhat resembles the Xperia Z3 but again, it did not really matter.

A back Gorilla Glass 4 recalling the Sony Xperia

 Let us return to the corners of the Galaxy S6, they are rounded and the assembly is held very well in hand. We find the volume buttons on the left side, the power button is positioned him on the right, finally, on the upper edge is the SIM door.

Micro-USB, 3.5mm headphone jack and speakers are on the bottom edge. Also on the top, there is an infrared port, and that's it! This is the first time in the history of the Galaxy S that no micro-SD slot is provided.



With the non-removable battery, the black point of the new Samsung design, but that's the price to pay for the glass and aluminum.

The frame of the Galaxy S6 is metal

Overall, the Galaxy S6 has excellent ergonomics and immediately made a strong impression!

The iPhone 6 is well known to him, aluminum, rectangular form factor with rounded corners and edges. Regarding equipment, a fingerprint scanner is integrated with home button on both devices. They are based on two different technologies, we will return.

The camera of the iPhone 6, you can see well-rounded design of the Apple smartphone

The volume buttons of the iPhone 6 are located on the left and the power button on the right. There is also a switch to activate the silent mode, dear to Apple.

It is true that the lower part of the two smartphones is very similar. Still, keep in mind that all smartphones made of glass and equipped with an aluminum frame is necessarily look like.

No micro-USB for iPhone 6, but a connection owner: Lightning.

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6 screen

There are two versions of the Galaxy S6, one of the other standard Dual Edge, which has two curved screens. To discover the Galaxy S6 edge. Regarding the iPhone, the second version, the iPhone 6 Plus is simply larger.
Returning to the comparison of the two screens of our guinea pigs of the day: Galaxy S6 vs iPhone 6! It is reasonable to say that Samsung did better than Apple, which offers a Retina display (LCD) of 4.7 inches with a resolution of 750 x 1334 pixels, or about 326 pixels per inch.

This is quite low compared to the slab qHD (1440 x 2560 pixels) Super AMOLED 5.1 inch Galaxy S6 for a pixel density of 577 ppi. The color rendering of the S6 is excellent. Unlike previous Samsung, which sometimes showed a slightly blue and contrasting shades too, the S6 is more natural.

However, it does not lose his flattery to the eye. This is probably the best display of all smartphones currently.

iPhone 6 side of Galaxy S6

The iPhone 6 meanwhile remains very comfortable, but I must admit that when the two smartphones are side by side, the S6 surpasses. Its maximum brightness is also higher.

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6: software interface

Without going into the eternal debate, iOS 8.1 has not really unanimity on the iPhone 6. The Galaxy S6 released Android 5.0 Lollipop, which also has its share of detractors, particularly at the design level.
The original Galaxy S6 features include a fingerprint scanner that works wonders. It is much more efficient than the Galaxy S5 and is comparable to that of the iPhone 6, which is one of the best in this area must admit.

The S6 has a heart rate monitor, unlike the iPhone 6. This is an addition used if using S Health particular, or if you practice sport in general with your smartphone.

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6: iOS and Android 5.0 8 Lollipop

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6: Performance

It is far too early to compare the performance of these racing machines. Again, the S6 features a quad-core processor (Cortex-A57) running at 2.1 GHz for high performance and a second processor quad-core tasks (Cortex-A53) 1.5GHz.

The latter is dedicated to other tasks that consume few resources. Pretty good overall, knowing that 3 GB of RAM LPDDR4 will strengthen the whole. The iPhone 6 is meanwhile high performance, our tests have shown that it did not heat.

Two very different back! This is according to taste ;)

Despite some rumors, it can run without problems the most demanding games on the App Store. Remember that the Samsung Galaxy S6 will whatever happens more need for resources than its competitor the iPhone 6.
System flow side, you can see in our speed test Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6 that the two devices are equal overall. Although it must be qualified, because the result depends on the test conditions, certain points are obvious.

The development of the camera seems slightly faster with iOS 6, the loading on the best Internet with the Galaxy S6, which also boot much faster on the system. Launching applications is not significantly faster or slower on one or the other.

Galaxy S6 - iPhone 6: Camera

We have not yet had time to compare the photographic performance of these two devices in depth. By cons, like Samsung we compared the performance in low light Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6, we leave you realizing it by yourself.

For information, here's what Samsung has presented at the Unpacked Event, placing side by side the same picture taken with the Galaxy S6 and the iPhone 6 plus, which has the same camera as the iPhone 6:

By zooming in a little more, we see that the iPhone 6 lacks contrast and the details are far less clear than with the Galaxy S6.

With a larger zoom again, the Galaxy S6 completes his victory. This comparative Galaxy S6 and iPhone 6 shows that the first is best to take pictures in low light.

Executives them show similarities

Conclusion Galaxy S6 - 6 iPhone

This comparison of the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6 shows that these two devices are quite similar, and not at the level of design. The proposed features are similar: fingerprint scanner, iOS and Android 5.0 Lollipop, no microSD, no protection against water and dust, no removable battery, etc.

However, it is clear that Samsung takes a step ahead. The screen of the Galaxy S6 is greater, and more offer, even if one fails differences related to the software interface. Moreover, even if he does not really better side autonomy, but the turbo charging makes the difference, not counting the two power-saving modes

For me it is clear that Samsung has caught the rare remaining delays compared to Apple, the Galaxy S6 is better than the iPhone 6.

Currently built on a touch screen of 5.5 inches, it is raised that the second iteration would incorporate a screen with a size ranging from 4.7 to 5.2 inches. Short. Several scenarios are possible.

To our regret, no word has been given on the definition screen. Anyway, we expect - again - to something quite high as the full-HD (1080 x 1920 pixels) or Quad-HD (1440 x 2560 pixels). It's not confirmed but this slab will certainly protected by a Gorilla Glass 3 or 4.

Performance-wise, there has been confirmation for 64-bit architecture. The type of processor is adopted the latest Qualcomm: Snapdragon famous 810-8 hearts.

Moto X 2015: features, price and release date

Following the appearance of a supposed technical specifications that would be directly from a Motorola employee, it happens that almost all of the main features of the Moto X in 2015 have been revealed for all to see. In 2015, as you say, the third iteration of Moto X looks colorful in 2015!

Moto X 2015: features, price and release date (no contractual picture).

Motorola Moto X 2015: Design and finishing

Having myself had a chance to take the first two iterations in hand, I must admit that I expect heavy for this third iteration of the Moto X 2015. Discovered in Paris during a presentation, the first generation of Moto X 2013 had really seduced me and that, as much by its interface design.

Looks like this current iteration of the Moto X © 2014

At the time, the Moto X in 2013 was cataloged as the fastest smartphone market. Moreover, it was then proved for a long time. Then, it is true that the integration with Google Now was perfect through his microphone placed on the lower part of the facade. Something that has been reproduced on the second iteration 2014.

Putting that aside, the handling of Moto E, G and X is meant relatively good in general, but very different from one range to another. I mean, more upmarket and we climb over the handling is appreciable. At the same time, you'll say: "SEA AND BE CRAZY, that makes sense!" Not really, if we analyze many smartphones on the market, it is found that some high-end have a catastrophic grip.

The microphone of Moto X 2013 and 2014 is placed at the front, so to interact more easily Now with Google voice actions.

In creating the Moto X, Motorola and Google have made us understand that he was the ultimate tool for Google Now. Moreover, the modified architecture of the Moto X shows, including two processors, low-power, natural language and context management, which remain awake at all times (even off the screen).

Motorola Moto X 2015: software interface

If we base ourselves on the facts, he would like the new Moto X 2015 also hosts a pure version of Android. Strictly speaking, it is not totally gross, since it incorporates practical features, such actions by gesture dormant advanced features dedicated to notifications and a few other small attractions. That said, the interface preserves the holy spirit of Android and it is not without displeasing us.

The Moto X smartphones are designed around Google Now.

Working closely with Google since 2013, Motorola is a kind of experimental platform for Google, where developers laboratory have fun trying new experimental features. If you did not know, the Moto X 2014, Android 5.0, already owned the majority of Android 5.1 features well before this release so the Google Nexus. In sum, this proves that. Short.

Anyway, I expect to find at least Android 5.1 installed on the new Moto X 2015. Who knows, if Google is deploying a new version before its official release, we could see the Moto X 2015 out on this famous M version of Android (5.2, 6.0 or otherwise), or at least introduce some functions.

For now, it is said that the installed version in the Moto X in 2015 is none other than the latest iteration of Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. However, this information is not technical, but good software and reaffirms the volition of the brand who want to offer the best.

The size of the 5.2-inch screen installed on the Moto X 2015 could be identical to the first generation. Besides that, it should be noted that the definition of this screen evolve a Full HD (1080 x 1920 pixels) to a Quad-HD (1440 x 2560 pixels), but the technology of the screen remains the same Super AMOLED. In truth, it's not so bad, since most active screen and features like Active Notifications exploit fully the AMOLED.

The Moto X in 2014 is 10mm thick, but the 2015 version should have a more pronounced finesse.

Here, the brand and the processor number embedded in the new Moto X 2015 displays as the famous Snapdragon 808 hexacœur, like the LG G4. The processor performance is quite simply outstanding, even if not quite equal those of a Snapdragon 810 the same foundry. Again, this architecture is a very good solution in the high end.

As for the graphics processor, it will take on a Adreno 418. Technically speaking, and in software, the chip is able to achieve a clock frequency of 600 MHz and 155.5 GFlops. It is at least 1.5 less than the 2x Adreno 420, but do not worry she will run all the latest games without worry. In support of that, it is displayed a very strong figure of 4 GB RAM. Yum! It gives already hungry.

Screen edges of the Moto X in 2014 are already very thin, with 73.1% of the front occupied by the screen.

On the multimedia range, the camera chosen would back 16 million pixels, but the sensor manufacturer is not yet known. That said, we already know that back photo and video sensor will be accompanied by "Clear Pixel" technology that captures the entire light spectrum for a much cleared rendered.

According to a new rumor that comes to surface, the future Moto X 2015 would be the first smartphone from the Motorola Moto range has a sensor board with optical stabilization (OIS). As if that were not enough, the rumor also mentions video recording capabilities which reach the 4K at 30fps, 1080p at 60 fps and 120, but also 720p HD at 120 fps. Short. Something to make us the mouth water!

Moto X 2015: Update

So far, the information in connection with the front camera was lost in the fog. Now we can finally put a figure to 5 megapixels for the front camera. In addition, Motorola is determined to not do things by half and could even add a flash to accentuate the front picture quality (or blind the prying eyes) ... Truth or falsehood, only the future holds the answer.

To return to the memory, the internal storage is displayed in 32 GB and 64 GB. Unfortunately, no information was provided as to the presence of a card slot micro SD memory, even if some iterations entries range of Moto E and Moto G offer the possibility to expand the memory. To our regret, there is no Moto X does not carry this famous micro-SD reader coveted ...

Moto X 2015 Updated:

Following a new rumor that has recently surfaced, it is the third iteration of the Moto X (2015) incorporate a micro-SD card reader. In short, it is excellent news that sounds like a revolution for the high-end brand. It only remains to wait and see if this rumor is proven.

The Moto X 2015 passes a camera 13 to 16 megapixels and preserves Clear Pixel technology.

Finally, the battery would have been a big blow punch! 2300 mAh displayed on the Moto X 2014, the new, third generation of the Moto X in 2015 would have a 3280 mAh! If we do the math, it is still 980 mAh more than the version of 2014. The capacity of a battery does indeed say anything, but if we rely on the quality of Motorola batteries, we can expect a significant gain in autonomy.

Motorola Moto X 2015: price and release date.

To date, there is no official information on the price of the future Moto X 2015. However, we can expect a release date for September 2015. Short. Motorola is determined to put a layer in 2015 and this requires a new generation of Moto X. Hopefully it is still better finished than the last!
