The Final Confrontation: iPhone vs. G1

by Frank Hedley  |  March 4, 2009

My dear iPhone,

Even today everyone is still talking about the new G1, in his real name “T-Mobile G1 android phone” and, of course, about the differences and similarities between the two of you.

From my point of view, I find it to be in a client’s benefit to have more options, from where to choose. Moreover, competition on a market can have as a result better products and services, so lucky us the clients.

Said all that, let’s begin the Big Confrontation:
                  

 Product   iPhone   G1
 Camera  2.0 mega pixel  3.2 mega pixel
 Camera Flash  NO (no night photos)  NO
 Video camera  NO  NO (no funny videos at work)
 Headphones  YES  NO
 Screen Size  3.5 inch

 3.17 inch (I can see even without my glasses)

 Browser  Safari  Android Web Browser
 Touch Screen  YES  YES (can touch this)
 Storage

 Flash Memory 4, 8, 16 GB

 (an extra brain)

 Micro SD Card 1GB
 Multimedia

 Audio, Photo taking and storing, games and applications

 (fun, fun and more fun)

 Audio, Photo taking and storing,  games and applications
 Read Bar Codes  NO  YES
 Compass  Application  NO  YES (in case I get lost)
 Map  Google Maps

 Google Maps +Street View

 (I can see you)

 Calculator  YES  NO
 Physical Class  Candy Bar (yummy)  Slider


In fact, as one can see, is not a real confrontation, better said it is a comparison between the two. So, don’t expect the result to be a statement of which is better, as it is not a matter of better or worse. I trust that the question that one should ask is: Which is more suitable for me?

See you next time,
Your Addict
