5 Big differences between the samsung galaxy s4 and samsung galaxy note 2

Samsung Galaxy S4 is in the spotlight after its presentation on March 14 in New York City. This terminal is added to the manufacturer's catalog of smartphones and there may already be three flagships "" high-end equipment "" that Samsung would have. Even so, the previous models, Samsung Galaxy S3 or Samsung Galaxy Note 2, continue to be two benchmarks in the market. Above all, the latest model that is currently the most powerful model of the company. Let's see five differences between this model and the Samsung Galaxy S4.

Display and layout

The latest Samsung launch has a design very similar to what can be seen in its catalog brothers: quite slim body with rounded corners and with a central button to be able to return to the main menu at any time. However, in the Samsung Galaxy S4 a fairly contained thickness has been achieved, reaching 7.9 millimeters and leaving aside what is achieved in the manufacturer's latest hybrid that reaches a thickness of 9.4 millimeters.

Likewise, the Samsung Galaxy S4 has managed to reduce the external frames of the screen and reduce the chassis with respect to its predecessor. This is how you get a total protagonist of your multi-touch screen. In both cases there is a high quality panel: SuperAMOLED and with high definition resolutions. But Samsung Galaxy S4 goes up to 1080p or Full HD; Samsung Galaxy Note 2 reproduces images up to 1280 x 800 pixels or HD resolution.

Power

There is no doubt that Samsung has been betting on power for several years. He already made it clear on the Samsung Galaxy S3 with the quad-core processor. And he confirmed it with the arrival of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 that used the same quad-core processor but increased its working frequency to 1.6 GHz.

With the arrival of the Samsung Galaxy S4, the company continues to innovate and has managed to show the first smart phone on the market to include an eight-core processor with a working frequency of 1.6 GHz. To this must be added a RAM memory of two GigaBytes, although in this aspect it is equal to the second generation of hybrids of the Korean.

Photo camera

The camera is another feature that surprises in the new Samsung Galaxy S4: the main sensor achieves a resolution of 13 Megapixels, while the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is an eight megapixel sensor. Of course, the user can record videos in Full HD quality with both models.

However, what changes the most between both models is the software or the functions, where the so-called Dual Camera stands out above all, with which it is possible to take a photo with both cameras ”” front and rear ”” at the same time, and later, combine both captures into one result. An example: you take a photograph of a landscape with the rear camera, with the front camera you take a self-portrait. By combining both shots, it can be said that the user was present in that scene.

Operating system and applications

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is waiting to receive the latest update. In this sense, the new first sword has the Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean version installed, while the hybrid model remains on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean that it received a few weeks ago through an update. In both cases you can see the Samsung TouchWiz user interface.

One of the company's directors has already commented that some functions of the Samsung Galaxy S4 would reach the manufacturer's high-end products, although without giving more details. In the functions that are expected is the visual control of the terminal or the functions of the photo camera. Even so, there will be other functions that will not be present, such as the one that allows you to use the terminal as a remote control thanks to its infrared or the possibility of having an ideal partner when exercising and having all the parameters controlled. This feature is known as S Health.

Drums

Having a large screen means that the terminal needs a battery that can last the whole day. And although the Samsung Galaxy S4 has improved the capacity of its battery compared to the previous model ”” it goes from 2,100 milliamps to 2,600 milliamps of the new model ””, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 continues to be the king in this regard, a battery that reaches 3,100 milliamps and that, depending on the use of each client, its autonomy can reach two days without the need to go through a plug.
