Samsung S6 vs I phone 6
A close look at these two phones side by side yields more fascinating differences than suspicious similarities. What's undeniable, though, is that they're both gunning for a similar premium market.
Both phones have classy metal-and-glass designs, class-leading cameras, and powerful processors - not to mention the top-end price tags to match.
Both phones also mark sizeable departures from their predecessors. In the iPhone 6, which was launched in September 2014, Apple finally ditches the restrictive and arguably outmoded 4-inch display size of previous iterations.
It also switches away from the striking square-rim design language that had been part of the iPhone range ever since the iPhone 4 in 2011, returning to a softer and more rounded approach that's reminiscent of earlier handsets.
Samsung's design overhaul has been even more radical. The Samsung Galaxy S6, launched in April 2015, marks a fundamental change in philosophy for the South Korean manufacturer.
Gone is the function-over-form mantra, the gaudy-but-robust plastic construction, the emphasis on box-ticking gimmick overload ahead of a crafted user experience. In its place is an elegant handset that concerns itself with how pleasant it is to live with rather than how many things it can do.
Samsung event went as far as to make a variant of the S6 in the form of the Galaxy S6 Edge, with curved dual displays for an even more premium look and feel.
So how do these two flagship phones, separated by six months, compare in the here and now?
