i6: A generation behind?
-
Looking on Engadget at the comparisons between the 6 and the 6+ versus the s5 and note 4 and it reads to me like i's have missed the mark in expectation. Some of the key metrics look like a generation behind. Just my personal opinion and just sayin' :~

But it's cool. Geesh. Why don't people get that? :doh:
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
Oh, I'm sure the fanboise will get that...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Trying to compare specs on products with completely different hardware and software platforms is "difficult" at best. :~

I presume that "i6" means iPhone 6? I found this article on engadget http://www.engadget.com/2014/09/09/the-iphone-6-hands-on/[^] Which key metrics are you referring to?

But that's all about - compare hardware and software on different products that aim to serve the same purpose! And a 5.5" iPhone 6 and a 5.7" Galaxy Note 4 aim to serve the same purpose... It seems Apple try to sell new software under the iPhone 6 label...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

See the "Criticism" section at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retina_Display[^] regarding pixel densities. All of those devices have overkill for image resolution. A higher resolution camera does not necessarily mean a better user experience. Such things as lens quality, focus speed, ease of focus control, image stabilization, color performance, and more, matter too. I would rather 8 MP if than 13 MP if those are better, but obviously I'd want more resolution for pictures if those other factors are equal. The other comments make sense, although most of those are not "key metrics" to me. And some key metrics, such as idle time batter life and call-time battery life are missing. Apple clearly wins in the storage category by providing a 64 GB storage and 128 GB storage option. It does cost a lot though. For the way I use my phone, I need the higher storage capability. A typical user is probably okay with 32 GB. So, I don't think it fair to call it "a generation behind." Some of the features of the Apple phone are better than their competitors, and visa versa. Apple also provides some features the other phone's don't provide at all, and the reverse is also true for that. Each manufacturer makes a different set of tradeoffs. A small set of numbers doesn't always tell the whole story. I'm going to wait for more in-depth user-experience reviews before I upgrade my phone.
