Whatever I heard about everything related to Apple, I don’t care about it because there is nothing in this world can prevent me from loving Apple. Today Samsung Galaxy S4 won top honors in a series of tests and studies made by a UK-based consumer research organization called Which. Anyway the organization found that Samsung’s Galaxy S4 topped Apple’s iPhone 5 and other competitors when it comes to speed, call time and Internet use.
Brace yourself user, Apple’s iPhone 5 led in just one test: Time Required To Recharge.
The consumer group announced on its blog earlier this week:
Despite being crowned the world’s best-selling smartphone in February, Apple’s iPhone 5 has aged badly since its launch last year.We measured it against the latest handsets on the market and it finished in last place, with the Samsung Galaxy S4 proving almost twice as fast.
The group used the standard Geekbench 2 software, with higher scores indicating better performance. Here are the top 7 finishers:
- Samsung Galaxy S4 – 3188
- HTC One – 2798
- Sony Xperia Z – 2173
- Google Nexus 4 – 2134
- Samsung Galaxy Note 2 – 1950
- BlackBerry Z10 – 1698
- Apple iPhone 5 16GB – 1664
In two other tests conducted by Which?, the group once more found the Galaxy S4 topped other smartphones when it comes to battery life.
Offering 1,051 minutes of call time and 405 minutes of Internet usage, Samsung’s Galaxy S4 was the clear winner in our testing thanks in large part to its 2600 mAh battery.
Apple’s iPhone 5 uses a 1440mAH battery.
While in the calling time test, the Galaxy S4 offered 1,051 minutes with Sony’s XperiaZ in second place at 985 minutes. Apple’s iPhone 5 with 499 talk minutes just beat out the last place Nokia Lumia 920.

The Samsung handset also was best in a test of Internet usage, racking up 405 minutes versus 261 for the iPhone 5, according to the group.
Apple’s iPhone 5 consider the quickest handset to recharge, topping out at 141 minutes. Samsung came in third with 164 minutes.
This is an important category for Apple to have won, since a short recharge time can be a psychological edge when consumers are looking to get back in the game as quickly as possible.
So what do you think ?
