Who will be the winner in a duel between Samsung Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4? The comparison of Android phones in the same class such as Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Sensation, and LG Optimus 2x. Overall, Samsung Galaxy S2 has the greatest performance among its opponents. In this article, the author would like to compare between the best Android phones in the world versus the best non-android phone in the world.
**Form Factor**
- Galaxy S2 : 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.49mm, 117g
- iPhone 4 : 115.2 x 58.7 x 9.3mm, 137g
Samsung Galaxy S2 is crowned as the world's thinnest mobile technology, with only 8.49 mm. It is quite amazing, because Samsung Galaxy S2 brings high-end technology. Due to the superior and lighter screen size of Galaxy S2, so the winner of the first round duel of [Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4](http://www.plimbi.com/review/49272/samsung-galaxy-s2-vs-iphone-4 "Samsung Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4: Who’s the Winner?") goes to Samsung Galaxy S2.
**Storage**
- Galaxy S2 : 16/32GB + microSD
- iPhone 4 : 16/32GB
This second round takes only a simple assessment. Both products offer the same amount of flash storage, with the difference: [Samsung Galaxy S2](http://www.plimbi.com/review/44362/samsung-galaxy-s2-vs-iphone-4s "The Battle of Two Advanced Smartphones - Samsung Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4s") can be expanded with microSD cards up to 32GB. So, effectively, you can store twice as much on the Samsung Galaxy S2. With 1080p video capabilities, 8MP [camera](http://www.plimbi.com/review/44882/blackberry-pearl "The BlackBerry Pearl Series - The First of BlackBerry Model to Have Camera and Media Player") and the ability to install applications on the microSD card that is owned by the entire Samsung’s Android phones, you can determine by yourself which one becomes the winner.
**Battery Life**
- Galaxy S2 : 1650mAh, 20 hours standby - 10 hours when in active use - and 15 percent remaining of battery life.
- iPhone 4 : 1420mAh, Up to 10 hours video.
From all of [Android phones](http://www.plimbi.com/article/32912/the-list-of-best-midrange-android-phones-gsm-worldwide-and-carrier-unlocked-for-your-own-preference "The List of Best Mid-Range Android Phones (GSM worldwide and Carrier Unlocked) For Your Own Preference") in the market today, Samsung Galaxy S2 is able to life longer in the test battery. This is because of two things, the first is from Samsung's latest feature to conserve battery usage by the screen and the second is the technology of the battery itself.
**Display**
- Galaxy S2 : 4:27-inch, 800x480px, AMOLED Super Plus
- iPhone 4 : 3.5-inch, 960x640px, LCD with IPS
[Super AMOLED](http://www.plimbi.com/review/19221/samsung-omnia-m "Samsung Omnia M - The Low-end Windows Phone-based Smartphone with Super AMOLED Display") Plus is significant development from Super AMOLED (the first generation of Samsung Galaxy S). Super AMOLED Plus has a wider color, more superior contrast, sharp edges, much better for outdoor visibility, and low power consumption display than any other product on the market. However, the excess of AMOLED Super Plus cannot yet beat the iPhone's Retina Display 4, where the display iPhone 4 looks more natural.
**Performance**
- Galaxy S2 : 1.2GHz Dual Core Exynos chip, 1GB of RAM
- iPhone 4 : Apple A4 1GHz, 512MB RAM
From the speed of processor, 1.2 GHz Dual Core and 200 MHz greater plus the RAM that is doubled i.e. 1 GB, above specifications allow you to determine which one will be the winner.
**Imaging**
- Galaxy S2 : 8MP rear, front 2MP, 1080p video capture
- iPhone 4 : 5MP rear, front VGA, 720p video capture
[Samsung](http://www.plimbi.com/news/23422/samsung-ceo-confirms-galaxy-note-80-launching-at-mwc-2013-galaxy-s-iv-coming-soon "Samsung CEO Confirms Galaxy Note 8.0 Launching at MWC 2013, Galaxy S IV "Coming Soonâ€") has removed all obstacles in designing and developing the Galaxy S2. This vendor has been planted 8MP camera in Galaxy S2 and equipped with LED flash. This camera can capture full HD video at 1080p while the iPhone 4 at only 720p. Another thing that makes the Samsung Galaxy S2 better is its front camera that has better resolution than the existing laptop webcam. Therefore, the Video Call, Video Chat or Facetime would be better with Samsung Galaxy S2.
**Connectivity**
- Galaxy S2 : Wi-Fi, NFC, 3G/4G, BT 3.0, DLNA, Wi-Fi tethering
- iPhone 4 : Wi-Fi, BT 2.1, 3G
Samsung seems have chosen to use more sophisticated [connectivity](http://www.plimbi.com/review/35502/nokia-lumia-900 "Nokia Lumia 900 - Impressive Smartphone with Bigger Screen and 4G Connectivity"). Supports 4G, Bluetooth latest series (3.0), NFC (Near Field Communication) is a technology that can be used for contactless payments via smartphone and the DLNA system will be very useful when you want to view HD content wirelessly from the Android phone to widescreen TVs. Samsung Galaxy S2 contains everything needed by the addicts of connectivity. So, the winner in this round between Samsung Galaxy S2 VS [iPhone](http://www.plimbi.com/review/44362/samsung-galaxy-s2-vs-iphone-4s "The Battle of Two Advanced Smartphones - Samsung Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4s") 4 is Samsung Galaxy S2.
**Price**
- Galaxy S2 : Approximately USD $ 653
- iPhone 4 : Approximately USD $ 699
There is no doubt with the fact that [Apple](http://www.plimbi.com/review/31032/apple-ipad-3 "Apple iPad 3 Review - Things to Consider before Upgrading From iPad 2")'s products will always be more expensive than other products on the market.
**Conclusion**
Maybe the duel between Samsung Galaxy S2 VS iPhone 4 is not a balance duel. Due to the processor support that is not Dual Core processors yet, iPhone 4 suffered major defeat and only win through its Retina Display technology. Maybe the iPhone 5 with Dual Core processors would become a rival comparable. But for now, Samsung Galaxy S2 deserves to be the number one Android phone, both against Android phones as well as non-Android phones. [IS]
