July 14th, 2009  |  Published in blog

When we want something, and by something I mean an item, companies would usually respond to that. That is of course if the demand is really high. When it comes to hi-tech gadgets, demands are really high. So if you want to see something new on hi-tech gadgets, check out these two mobile phones: iPhone and Samsung F700. These mobile phones are now well known for being the best phones in terms of features and capabilities. Both of them can do just about anything you want mobile phones to do.

iPhone and Samsung F700 are being compared because they are very similar. When it comes to features and capabilities, no one can tell which of them is better. That is because these mobile phones showcase features and capabilities that are very powerful and it is supreme to its predecessors. Both iPhone and Samsung F700 have a full touch screen. iPhones LCD display is 3.5 and is bigger than Samsung F700 since its screen size is only 3.2. In terms of resolution, iPhone has 480×320 while Samsung F700 only has 440×240. Its not much of a difference since Samsung F700 has a smaller display. iPhones touch screen features multitouch function. Samsungs F700, on the other hand, has touch screen feature a drag and drop function. In terms of connectivity, Samsung F700 might just have the advantage. Both phones feature Bluetooth and Quad-Band GSM. But Samsung F700, being 3G capable, features HSDPA. You can connect to the internet with a connection speed of 3.6 Mbps. iPhones internet connection is good too so still; theres not much of an advantage. Both of the phones have a full html web browser making it easier to be online. Samsung F700 has a slide down keyboard. iPhone has on-screen keyboard that is programmable. It is a little more convenient to use a mini keyboard but once you get used to a programmable on-screen keyboard, again, theres a little difference between the two mobile phones. The real advantage by Samsung F700 is seen on its primary camera. It is a 3.0 megapixel camera and is definitely better than iPhones 2.0 megapixel camera. When it comes to media file support, Samsung F700 can again beat the iPhone. iPhones media file support is the same as those on iPod video. Samsung F700 on the other hand, can play real MP3, H.263, H.264, AAC+ and eAAC+.  In terms of storage, the iPhone has 4GB or 8GB. However, it does not have any expansion slots in it. So youll have to make do with that though that is quite large. Samsung F700 can be equipped with MicroSD though its internal memory is only 112 MB. With all these specifications, its really that hard to choose which one is better.

Apple iPhone and Samsung F700 are the best rivals on mobile phones today. If I were to choose, Id pick Samsung F700. But it is up to you to decide which of the two is better.
