Samsung and Apple is the undisputed leaders of the smartphone market. Recent Gartner report relating to the fourth quarter of 2014 years has confirmed that the struggle between these producers is very sharp. However, the result was quite surprising: Apple finally boasted higher sales.

Of course, as long as the result is certainly very cool Samsung adopted by the devotees, it must be admitted that the Korean company itself earned him. Because having to compete with the iPhone 5S flagship Galaxy S5 , unfortunately, did not respond to market demands. Turned out to be in some ways a disappointment, contrary to some predictions that did not survive the later fanboy’e Apple buyers like hot cakes smartphones iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus .

Samsung pulled out but I think the conclusions from this failure. This was confirmed by designing Galaxy S6 , which is a smartphone that looks great and, as confirmed by preliminary data, has aroused great interest of consumers. It’s interesting, because the new flagship outside of the obvious advantages brought in by the adverse effects from the point of view of consumers. I mean first of all, to dispense with a microSD memory slot, or solutions, which always prided themselves on smartphones running Android under control.

Looking at the Galaxy S6 can not help noticing that the Samsung hard likened it to the iPhone ‘and 6 (m.in .: housing materials “premium” projecting lens, no memory slot, not user battery (at least within the warranty period)). Despite this, however, between these devices are significant differences. Below we decided to make a few elements that speak in favor of Apple’s smartphone.

Touch ID, Apple Pay

Samsung tried to compete with Apple’s smartphone equipping Galaxy S5 in the fingerprint scanner. Its technology required, however, to identify you swipe your finger across the surface of the scanner, and not, as in the case of the iPhone touch only. It soon became apparent that this solution makes a lot of trouble forcing you to repeat the process of re-scanning. This in turn has forced many people to abandon this form of data protection and return to traditional hand-entering your password.

With the latest flagship smartphone, Galaxy S6 , Samsung has proved that learned from previous failure and significantly improved the built-in scanner that now works in a similar way as a scanner iPhone 6 . While in this area, users should really feel the positive changes, the fact remains that its functionality is limited to unlock the phone, the Samsung Account authentication, authentication relatively small number of applications, and log on to a small set of services.

Touch ID is much more functional solution that works a bit better and allows for more. Through this, you can, amongst others, confirm purchases in iTunes, App Store and iBooks store. In addition, the American owners of the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus can immediately take advantage of the new Apple Pay payment system that allows you to easily and conveniently pay phone. It should also be noted that at present many applications allows you to perform authentication only for the iOS version.

Instant update software

Now go to perhaps the biggest advantage of the iPhone, which is an update of iOS. Because apart from the problems, which in recent editions of often unfortunately happen to Apple (in terms of various errors), users of iPhones (up to a few versions back) can expect the update (in the case of earlier versions of iPhones may vary slightly in functionality) to the next version of iOS shortly after its release by Apple.

When Galaxy S6 so it certainly will not look. Firstly, because it must take some time before Samsung adequately prepare and make available the next version of Google’s prepared Android . Secondly, even if it does, the date of the update will have a big impact, the network operator’s what you use and which model Galaxy S6 .

Seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem

Smartphones iPhone tighter integration with the Apple ecosystem. Also in Poland in more and more homes find the Mac, which is sometimes accompanied by iPad, which is usually purchased this type of device in the world. This means that part of the future owners of the Galaxy S6 will be held in the homes of the bitten apple branded devices.

This integration for Apple devices was transferred to a new level with Mac OS X Yosemite. Certainly does not look so good in the case of Android and computers running Windows. Finally, it should also be recalled here that soon Apple ecosystem is enriched with a new category of devices, which is the first “intelligent” watch Watch, which, as you might expect, given the powerful support from the app store.

notifications on the lock screen

This point probably for many of you will be irrelevant. Speaking about the system and the lock screen notifications. Indeed, although you can choose which notifications you want to appear on the lock screen iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6 , it only for the first of these devices when we have such a Information backlit screen for a moment. You would not need to raise the device (Galaxy inform notification LED) to find out the details.

Of course, if there are many Android apps that will add this functionality to the Galaxy S6 (eg. Slidelock Locker). But we must remember that using third party applications allow them to have access to all messages and applications, which notifications you want to appear on the lock screen. This in turn may raise among some privacy-conscious users a lot of resistance.
