iPhone or Galaxy tab

Activity#22(Carlo Fuerte)

iPhone or Galaxy tab? Hmmm. Before I pick which I prefer lets have a quick background check. The iPhone is a line of Internet- and multimedia-enabled smart phones marketed by Apple. The iPhone is a cell phone at the same time a camera and a media player.   The iPhone 4 has a rear-facing camera (720p video) and a front facing camera (at a lower resolution) for FaceTime video calling and for use in other apps like Skype. The iPhone 4 featured a higher-resolution 960x640 display; it was released on June 24, 2010. In the U.S., AT&T was the only authorized carrier until February 10, 2011, when a CDMA version of the iPhone 4 launched for Verizon. On October 4, 2011, Apple announced the iPhone 4S.

The iPhone 4S added a higher resolution camera (8 megapixel) with 1080p video recording, face detection, and video stabilization, a faster, dual core processor, support for both GSM/UMTS and CDMA on one chip, GLONASS support and a natural language voice control system called Siri. It is available in 16 GB and 32 GB, as well as a new 64 GB capacity.

On the other hand,  the Samsung Galaxy Tab is an Android-based tabletcomputer produced by Samsung introduced on 2 September 2010 at the IFA in Berlin.

The Galaxy Tab has a 7-inch (180 mm) TFT-LCD touchscreen, Wi-Fi capability, a 1.0 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 Samsung Exynos 3110 (code-named "Hummingbird") processor, the Swype input system, a 3.2 MP rear-facing camera and a 1.3 MP front-facing camera for video calls. It runs the Android 2.2 (Froyo) operating system, and supports telephone functionality as speaker phone, via provided wired ear piece or Bluetooth earpieces (except models sold in the US). It can download videoconferencing apps such as Tango as alternative to telephone functionality.

Based on my quick background check I think I’m going with the iPhone on this one because first of all I already have a iTouch and it has never failed me before and second the iPhone has a greater amount of pixels compared to the galaxy tab. The iPhone also supports a lot of handy apps like Photoshop so you can to edit your pictures without the use of your computer and upload faster to other social networking sites.
