iPhone 5 is behind the HTC One And Samsung Galaxy S4
iPhone 5 is a good phone, so there’s no reason for Apple fans to complain about their phones, or to get scared that their iPhone’s aren’t exactly the phones that they were looking for, at least for the moment.
Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One are two of the iPhone 5′s “enemies” nowadays, because their design, software and hardware features makes the Apple’s “star phone” look and feel old.
HTC One is an amazing looking phone with an awesome software, BlinkFeed function letting you choose what’s important to yourself and then you can easily scroll through your important stuff. In two words, this is just an: awesome function!
Samsung’s Galaxy s4 design still looks better than the iPhone 5 (since the only difference between iPhone 5 and iPhone 4/4s design is that the iPhone 5 is longer.), and it also has an amazing software. Samsung made Android software their own, we can say that they made a smart move, since Android is the best and most useful software Samsung ever had.
Samsung Galaxy S4 takes all functions of the past phones that Samsung made, and improves them, which is the best move they make with every new model. One of them is the Smart Stay function, which prevents the screen from turning off when you are looking at it. Smart Stay by itself, isn’t a breathtaking function, but Samsung guys are constantly adding functions like this one, so you can have an amazing experience when you are buying an Samsung Galaxy S4.
Talking about awesome features, just think of Air View and Air Gesture, the first one makes the popup information to trigger when you’re placing your finger near the screen (without touching it), and the second one lets you swipe through different screens, just by moving your finger in from of the screen, without touching it.
Even though iPhone 5 doesn’t have feature like this, I think that their biggest mistake was to keep their screen narrowed as the 4 and 4s models, because Samsung Galaxy S4 got larger screen which lets you see more information at a time.
All in all, Apple isn’t in real trouble, iPhone being an amazing phone, the 5 model being better than a lot of other phones, but their “main enemies” are just having more imagination when it comes to actually designing phones and designing awesome breathtaking features. So, Apple, do your job and start working harder on your next products, take our breath!
