Apple has recently introduced iOS 5, the latest version of its popularoperating system, and now representatives from Google, finally, presented the Android 4.0 «Ice Cream Sandwich» and the new Galaxy Nexussmartphone from Samsung. In the Android 4.0 operating system was an attempt to correct the most common complaints about the Android. In this article we will try to compare these two undoubted leader in the smartphone world.
If you've ever used a tablet, Android, then you've seen the interface in the black-prechernogo tones, as in the movie "Tron" and now is the same design will be used in phones, and Android. The theme for the design made famous designer Mathias Dyuart mobile devices, and this theme is a completely new way. Glamorous response to the simplicity of decoration iOS: Android is now distinguished by its deep black, shining blue flowers, cutting-edge print titled Robot. In addition to the Android 4.0 added the ability to resize the icon-preview application, which is much easier to view mail, text, weather and things like that and it does not need to open the application. 
Apple iOS 5 changed little in terms of appearance, and why change something in an already well-established system? As for the features in iOS 5 is a very useful being outside the top of the screen notification system, which has had numerous pop-ups, though, presumably, to the creation of such service professional Apple inspired system Android.
The winner: Android 4.0. The new look of the original Android is impressive (though not everyone likes). In iOS simply by definition, a very neat style, but it lacks one punch, which appeared at the Android 4.0 with a new design in shades of blue, to the same design iOS for a long time did not change.
Synchronization and set of programs
Apple has raised the most hype of iCloud, the newest service in iOS 5, you can use to instantly transfer files (apps, music, photos, everything) in the base-cloud and sync it with iTunes and your other iUstroystvami from Apple. If you've enjoyed the service MobileMe, then you have some good news: the service was free, he works as a part of iCloud and can be used to synchronize email, contacts and calendar entries.
Integration with the cloud storage system has always been a strong point of the software Google. Maybe a wonderful, trouble-free, the music service Spotify and cloud overshadowed system Google Music Beta, but the huge range of services from Google has come in handy in the operating system Android, which is not in iOS. Applications like Gmail do the work with the platform Google more convenient and easy, but Android 4.0, in addition, an improved system was integrated offline search in e-mails (for the period up to 30 days), the features have been revised, are made easier and faster to use, was upgraded to the Calendar application.
Winner: tie. If you are used to iOS, then with the new software from Apple, your work with the iPhone will become even more comfortable. If you no longer rely on mail service Gmail, calendars, and other services from Google, then Android is for you.
Killer features, like from the future: Siri against the program transmitter Android Beam and programs unlock Face Unlock
How iOS 5 and Android 4.0 is quite futuristic, and it is not just about the glowing blue. Along with iOS 5 program was presented and Siri, an application for voice search and control your phone, smart almost to horror.You say in your iPhone 4S, ask Siri to do something (almost anything), and Siri will offer an answer. Or at least, quickly and disingenuously tells you it can not find the information. System Android has long had a built-in voice control, but can be much more Siri ... work with Siri is similar to a live chat.
Coupled with a futuristic way Android 4.0 has to offer two more small bonus: Android Beam transmitter and a program to unlock your phone to your face Face Unlock. If you've used a clever application Bump, to exchange phone numbers, then you will understand that the program Beam the same principle, only she knows more. You put the two phones side by side and watch how to use this program from one phone to another almost instantly transmitted to a web page, video, transcripts of route applications.
Face Unlock software designed for Android 4.0 can be very useful if you want to protect your phone from prying eyes. Using technology to recognize people from Google, you can unlock your phone, simply by pointing the camera at your face on the front panel, the program gets to know you.
Winner: Siri. Of course, the new futuristic features like Apple, and on the Android has some built-in limitations. For example, Siri can only work on the iPhone 4S and not available for all users of iOS 5. The program will debut Android Beam along with the leading smartphone Galaxy Nexus, and then it can be used on any two phones running Android 4.0, which are equipped with a chip NFC (wireless radio system). Unfortunately, knowing the fickleness of developers in the Google issues updates for Android and the poor quality of many applications, it is difficult to say how much time will pass before Beam will effectively work on all smartphones.
iPhone 4S against the Galaxy Nexus
Although the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, but not empty. Design of the apparatus is not subjected to radical treatment, but significantly increased the speed of the phone, thanks to the processor A5, there was fresh with a matrix camera 8 megapixels and aperture (lens aperture) f/2.4, this program manages all Siri, plus the remarkable design and display Retina-behold, that can offer the phone last generation iPhone.
Android phones in the world without a bill, but the new champion is now unbeaten-Galaxy Nexus made by Samsung. He will go on sale next month.As the newest in the line of smartphones Nexus from Google, this unit will be the first phone, initially working on the platform Android 4.0.
Specifications Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Super AMOLED LCD screen diagonal of 4.65 inchesDual-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHzSupport for the fourth-generation LTE networksThin as a rake: 9 mm thickThe curved surface, it is very comfortable to holdThe operating system Android 4.0The system of wireless short-range NFCWinner: iPhone 4S. Judging by the screen quality, performance and design, these two phones, of course, represent the cream of society in the world of smartphones. They are almost equal, although the Galaxy Nexus have a couple of tricks in store, such as compatibility with networks 4G, not to mention the system of NFC-technology mobile payments, only gaining momentum, but with tremendous potential. Yet iPhone4S increasingly designed for the average buyer. The huge screen of the new Android smartphone is perfectly suitable for multimedia applications, but the enormous size-four, 65 inch too big and will be less attractive to the average consumer, compared with more modest-sized devices.
Once Apple has borrowed (and improved) the main advantages of Android, such as voice control and a popup window notification, with the power of iPhone will have to take even more than before, even if we recognize that Apple has not played fair. Galaxy Nexus-an extremely powerful machine, but soon (hopefully) the market will be a lot of other devices on the platform of Android 4.0, because no one smartphone can not stay long in the first place. And thanks to the high attractiveness to the general public, and an updated operating system for this round is the one and only iPhone.
