Duel of smartphones: Samsung Galaxy S7 vs Apple iPhone 6s – DigitalVersus

The couple of stars of the annual mobility faced in this high-end duel. Certainly the OS are different and the new Samsung spearhead is in his youth against the latest Apple bulldozer launched in autumn 2015, but these two are destined to dispute the palm of the best top mobile range of the moment. Let’s take a closer look.

Compare the screens of iPhone 6s and Galaxy S7 is a bit compare two philosophies of mobile display. On the one hand, Samsung has always wanted to play the shot from the pile of pixels (here WQHD high definition) in a larger slab to the market average (currently 4.8 inches, or 12.2 cm diagonal), when Apple keeps a form of “wise” with a ratio of less than 5 inches display (12.7 cm) and a definition around high definition. Moreover, it is also a fight against the AMOLED LCD IPS that is played and, as luck would have it, the GS7 and the iPhone 6s (along the edge GS7 and 6s Plus) are the best representatives.

so we have Apple LCD IPS 4.7-inch (11.9 cm) 1334 x 750 px, slightly more than the HD when the GS7 Super Amoled loads a slab created by Samsung, with a size of 5.1 inches (13 cm) and with a definition of 2560 x 1440 px. What suggest the GS7 a display density (576 ppi) 76% higher than the iPhone 6s (326 dpi). Nevertheless, the display finesse iPhone 6s already be fine for a screen of this size. Also, if the AMOLED contrasts almost infinite and abyssal black, the GPI of 6s pushed his average to a 1703: 1 rare for this type of technology. On the color scheme, the iPhone 6s offers average Delta E of 1.6 and a beautiful rendering global balance, as the GS7 which however instead Delta E of 2.5. Specifically, we are talking about levels of excellence in colorimetric rendering it impossible to decide for the human eye. Same story for brightness: each terminal has a maximum of over 500 cd / m², which is what it takes to support the display at all times, especially as the iPhone 6s as GS7 feature perfect management reflections, with less than 10% light reflectance.

If you play the game of strict technical comparison item by item, the iPhone 6s often just before the GS7 but the game of global balance, it is the Galaxy S7 which is placed a step above, although it would take a magnifying glass and bionic x1000 lynx eyes to realize.

 
 



 

GETTING STARTED: SAMSUNG GALAXY S7

The ambition of Samsung for a return to more technical and ergonomic consensus is clearly felt in the construction of the Galaxy S7, which refines the work on the Galaxy S6. His solid pace despite the use of glass plates, its very subdued despite the abundance of power heaters and above a curved back around the edges just perfectly fit into a palm make it an extremely pleasant device to handle . Moreover, Samsung gives up (for a time) the race to finesse to deliver a thicker smartphone than their elders of 1.1 mm, and almost as compared to the iPhone 6s.

 For the latter, its 7.1mm thick and its structure too smooth coat makes the slightly less relevant to grip (it can drag the hands on the type of manipulation).

 The thickness of the renewed GS7 allows her to erase almost all of the protrusion of the NPC appearing on the GS6 and which also faces the iPhone 6s.

Finally, the GS7 has an IP68 certification guaranteeing a certain tightness for immersion up to 30 minutes and up to 1.5 m deep. If it is rumored that Apple 6s generation resists well to the aquatic environment, there is no official certification.

 
 

Difficult battle than the interface, since we are not here in an operating system of sharing situation. The iPhone 6s embarks iOS, now in version 9.3, when the GS7 provides Android 6.0 Marshmallow, but with the usual Samsung TouchWiz interface. Apple demonstrated a certain inertia on the side of its user interface, which really has very little changed in years: the Cupertino seems lately more worrying about new features new animations or software decorum changing. But this relative immobility also induces a perfect mastery of the ecosystem, a hardware-software optimization with onions and thus smooth operation, while on paper, the iPhone still seems to pale in comparison to other top configuration range Android.

 even when there has been a contribution desired size with 3D Touch haptic technology to provide a form of depth to the touch screen and interacts depending on the pressure level. Nice find, but is still limited in its uses (OS, game, web, we quickly made the turn). One thing is certain. This iPhone 6s enjoy for some time the latest updates of iOS and will continue to evolve

On the side of the GS7, it inaugurates a TouchWiz still a little planes parasitic elements that can slow navigation, although it is yet to start fifteen icons other than pure Samsung and Android services (after Microsoft, for example). Most of Google, therefore, one or two duplicates from Samsung and very good ideas, such as the “ gaming .” The latter won a management center named Game Launcher where you can access additional content or in relation to its game library (wallpapers, tutorials, YouTube videos …), and a wheel options ” game Tools “available anytime during game to record a current video game, cut the notifications or put the game in windowed mode. Samsung also introduced a permanent display on the screen saver (clock, number of notifications, date …) which is convenient, but can still deepen.

 
 



 

MULTIMEDIA: APPLE iPHONE 6s

In a purely technical comparison, one could argue that the GS7 provides a slightly larger slab and better defined to take full advantage of the video on his mobile, while iPhone 6s offers HD image quality and especially a sound section among the best in the market when Samsung still falters a bit on the loud speaker, but only slightly. It is part of the game that stands out a little fight.

Radius software, it’s not a surprise, iOS is full of very hairy titles that often do not have to blush before some productions of portable consoles, so that Android must wait even forgetting to have a day right. In addition, qualifications are equal and even though Samsung has made efforts on the graphic part by inflating its iGPU, rendering on iOS remains invariably in advance.

 
 



 

PHOTO: SAMSUNG GALAXY S7

The iPhone 6s was already not up to several tenors of mobility at its output. Always very balanced and fast but lacking in dynamism and finesse, the photo on the latest Apple’s 4.7 inches so you could not catch up with the lead taken by the Galaxy S6 and LG G4 (among others). Inevitably, the output of GS7 not help matters. Faster and more talented at the overall shooting, the Galaxy S7 is also better video capture, including through effective optical stabilization, a nice dynamic sensor and light management transitions with a line, where the iPhone 6s patina slightly.
