“This is the most advanced we’ve ever created. It has incredible phone technology,” says his side, the marketing director of Apple, Phil Schiller, Tuesday evening. For the Cupertino around the issue of the new iPhone is important. The market for high-end smartphones is now mature and saturated. The goal is not to convince consumers to buy, but to convince them to change smartphone.

The first will be played on the price. If the iPhone 5s will be sold 699 euros naked, the Galaxy S4 will be available for 473 euros him naked.


Samsung S4 vs iPhone 5s: 5 against 4 inches, and two very different cameras

Meanwhile, the iPhone 5S has a 4-inch Retina display. The smartphone weighs 112g to 7.9 mm thick. Apple has opted for glamor when choosing colors: silver, gold or gray “sidereal”.

South Korean smartphone has a 13 megapixel camera on the back and a 2-megapixel sensor on the front. The radius of the new software, it is possible to shoot images of integrating both sensors simultaneously (actually, filming a scene with the self-image overlay.) The Samsung phone also offers the “Drama shoot” function that takes a hundred shots to select only the best, and the “Eraser” function to remove elements or people in a scene.

iPhone 5s has a camera of 8 megapixels. The camera has undergone a facelift with an f/2.2 aperture, a sensor 15% larger. The new flash “True Tone” will take pictures least pâlichonnes with double LED.

The most interesting news from the iOS7 system. It is offering a new burst mode that allows you to choose, after a series of shots, the best image. Also arrive color filters to be applied to the image in the vein Instagram. In video, it is possible to designate parts of the sequence that will be broadcast in slow motion (slow motion).

And innovation

side? Galaxy S4 meets the finger and the eye

Samsung was surprised with his device for detecting the eyes of the user. The camera front discern the look and scroll through the information on the screen depending on what you look. Better when watching a video, if the user looks away, then the image is paused.

Galaxy S4 is directly U.S. rival iPhone with the arrival of a personal assistant called S Voice. For now, its primary function is to assist in the conduct, but it can read messages.

For now, “Touch ID” will identify and pay only three Apple applications. Ultimately these are all applications that could benefit. The benefit is obvious to access his bank or social network. “Touch ID” could also give a boost to mobile payment struggling to take off.
