Having owned both the latest model iPhone and the Samsung Galaxy S2 recently, I have to say that I far prefer the Samsung Galaxy S2. While I'm not sold on the semi-bulky nature of having the flip-out keyboard (which I discovered I don't really use), I think Samsung has at this point spoiled me on the super-bright AMOLED screens. The hardware in the S2 is similar to the Samsung Windows Phone, and it's pretty fast with surprisingly good battery life (much like the Windows phone version). Android still isn't where iPhone is in regards to user interface, but the Google integration with contacts and Facebook really sells me on it.

That is not true.From the consumer stand point, i want to say here that if you take a close look at Samsung galaxy S2 and the Apple iPhone, you will noticed that iPhone got some prestige, uniqueness and it is easy to use i.e. user-friendly. Whereas, Samsung galaxy has good technology but fail in its uniqueness and the bad news is that it is complex to handle.

If the comparison is between S2 and 4S, then let me tell you that 4S is far better than S2.
I can agree once that S3 may be a bit superior in few aspects with 4S but S2 is not even in the race with 4S.
And one thing more Apple is soon going to release iPhone 5, I am damn sure at that time there will be no cell to compare.

For me, it's the S3. :) I think it's got all the right features that everyone needs.

What intrigues me about the Iphone is if you aks Siri where to hide a dead body it gives you answer that makes sense and when you aks the S3 it doesn't want anything to do with that question.

I'll admit - that is one advantage the iPhone has over Android phones. It might come in useful sometime. Posted Image Google Now on my phone works with basic queries like 'weather in san francisco california', 'what's the answer to life, the universe, and everything' (maybe that's because google.com also directly answers that?), or 'remind me to bla bla bla'. However, if I ask it where to hide a dead body, it gives me a google search full of - you guessed it - Siri stuff.

I am not that impressed with Siri. I will admit that I don't really use it that much, however.

I mainly use it for voice dialing...and for that it is problematic. It sometimes has trouble getting the correct person, but that could be due to me initiating the voice dialing through my Bluetooth speaker phone (I think Apple optimizes Siri for the iPhone's mic). The other major down side from a voice dialing point of view is that is does require a data connection as it much "phone home" to complete the command. While you generally should have a data connection when you have a voice connection, it is not aways true. And even when you have a data connection, Siri flakes quite a bit (i.e. "sorry I cannot help you right now" BS).

I wish Apple would put at least the voice dial functionality ALL in the phone and not through their servers...like was the case with my Android powered Evo. The voice dialing on my Evo was MUCH better than on my current iPhone.

Beyond the voice dialing, I have used it occasionally to read and even send a text message. Here the problem is that Siri's voice is not that loud through my Bluetooth speaker so it is tough to hear her speak the message.

Otherwise, it has been just "playing" with it on occasion to get the "funny" responses.

To be honest, I never actually use Google Now on my phone, and if I had an iPhone I doubt I'd use Siri either.

Apple and Samsung are the clear winners of the smartphone hardware race. It doesn't even matter that their two devices aren't the most high-powered, fully-featured or largest on the market.

I will Go with Apple's Iphone :) :D
