In my house there is both iphone and Samsung galaxy S3.  Unfortunately, i have to disagree with the reception thing and found S3 giving better  reception. Iphone often disconnects because of poor reception.


Here  i like something about S3 over iphone and vice versa,

  -  I like playing with the widgets rather than using plain apps. In iphone for everything you have to go into apps.  For example, in samsung i can arrange widgets to know about twitter, facebook, weather etc without going to apps. It also  makes moving around screens better experience.

-  I watch skysports on the go with sky apps. I have compared the display of both samsung and iphone, and the bigger screen gives me a better video experience.  The display of both the device is fantastic. But someone who watches a lot of videos , samsung does it for me.

- I don't like to buy too many apps like in iphone. I would rather have a small google advertisement on the top of the application rather than paying for it.  Android offers a lot of free applications compared to iphone.

-samsung s3 i can easily share photos with my friends with groupshare. Also display on tv. I think  NFC is a fantastic application.  Some of my friends have S3.  And NFC is great. I am sure NFC will be biggest selling point for iphone 5s or Iphone 6.  But where's the innovation.

- I have a wireless charger for samsung. So i can take it anywhere. I do not know if wireless charger for iphone is available.

-   Samsung  s3 has been said  DESIGNED FOR HUMAN -INSPIRED BY NATURE. And it is not difficult to know why.   If you look most of the things it is related to nature. Like the front screen.  Ringtones sounds are related to nature.  ....................Also smart stay will let you read book and watch video during night. When  you sleep, it turns off automatically.

-    I like the MOTION SENSOR in samsung . Like if i have to update anything like weather twitter, faceook widget, all i need to do is shake the phone for 2 seconds. it updates automatically, I think it is pretty neat.

- I use the samsungs own swipe keyboard. This makes typing very fast compared to iphone,

- I know one day when my battery in samsung needs to be replaced i can do it myself and not send Iphone office for fixing for days,



-  On the contrary iphone has a more luxuriouos look with aluminium coating.

-  I phone has built an ecosystem. So if you are ipad, ipod, mac user may be it is better to integrate iphone into it.   But how long can one continue to buy inferior product ( at least in terms of specs) just to be an ecosystem.

-Some people might like the size of iphone .  Although i can fit samsung s3 perfectly in my pocket. my pockets arnt  big.

-   Currently siri does have an advantage over S voice. But S voice also does simple task without any problem like sending text, calling someone, setting alarm.
