As smartphones are only getting bigger, better and faster, there is a constant power struggle going on between the world’s top phone companies. In our new “5 Smartphones That Are Better Than iPhone” list, you will see who the competitors are. Firstly, if you are interested in smartphones generally, you can see which ones were sold the most in last year on the list of 10 top selling smartphones in the world. The Apple Inc. company has taken the market, or shall we say, the whole world by storm with its latest products and achievements.
The iPhone 6 is all people talk about these days when it comes to phones, and they are right to do so, it’s an incredible product. But, still there are a few names which can be put in the same sentence as the iPhone’s flagship line, or as you’ll see below, those that can top the iPhone in some segments. The 5 Smartphones that are better than iPhone are all unique in their own way, and that’s why we are sure you’ll find this article very interesting, even if you are an iPhone fan. Hopefully, it can also be of use to you in picking out your next smartphone. Let’s dive into 5 smartphones that are better than iPhone:
5. LG G4
In #5 we give you a phone that is fascinating to look at. Its camera, design and display are incredible. The LG G4 was released in April, 2015, and still is considered as the most brilliant product the LG Company has released. The 5.5 inch Quantum display is what has given the G4 the spark, alongside the processor, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with X10 LTE, and 1.8GHz 64-bit Octa-Core CPU and 32 GB of internal memory. Not bad at all for the iPhone’s competitor, sold at about $600.
4. HTC ONE (M9)
If looking at most of the reviews for the HTC ONE phones, you may find it strange that the M9 is on the list, but its predecessor, the M8, isn’t, right? Well, the M8 is a great phone, but lacks a good camera, and is overshadowed by the design of the M9 model. Other than that, it’s just more affordable. So, that’s why we decided to list M9. This Android smartphone, manufactured by HTC, was released in early 2015, and has got a brilliant and wonderful design. It is specific and extraordinary for its HTC BoomSound and the HTC UH OH Protection, which are some of the best specs of this phone, and notable advantages over iPhone 6. It will cost you about $650 to get it.
3. Motorola Moto X (2nd generation)
In 3rd place of our 5 Smartphones that are better than iPhone list is the Motorola Moto X. It was released in late 2014, with a display of 5.2 inches, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset, and a 13 MP camera. Although the first generation of the Moto X wasn’t a complete success, the 2nd definitely turned out to be one. They fixed all of the problems from which the first generation suffered – as the camera specs and battery-life, and that’s why this phone beats iPhone 6 by far, if we consider the same battery size. You can find new Moto X for about $660, a more affordable price.
2. Samsung Galaxy S6
The runner-up spot goes to the Samsung Galaxy S6, which is, quite frankly, the best phone there is. Up till now we have given you the phones which can be put in the same group as the iPhone, but now we are talking about an Android phone which beats iPhone in many ways. For starters, the Samsung Galaxy S6 has a glass-and-metal design, which grants it an unbelievably elegant look and a sturdy feel. Built-in wireless charging, is not very common, not even for newer smartphones, so that’s another plus for the S6. We will give you more of the phone’s specs in the summary for the #1 in our list, as it’s actually the same phone, with some upgrades. The price on this one varies a lot, but it stands at about $700.
1. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
On the top of our 5 Smartphones That Are Better Than iPhone list, is the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. If you are one of those people who are into selfies, this is the perfect choice for you, because the front 5-MP camera is awesome. The only difference between this phone and the one ranked 2nd is the curved display on the S6 Edge, which provides quick access to additional functionality, and starts a new trend. We won’t be surprised if Apple starts to implement this in some of the next models of their phones. The price stands at about $780, or even $669 on eBay.
