General discussion / iPhone 5c/5s vs Samsumg Galaxy S5
« on: June 17, 2014, 11:09:20 AM »
I'm due an upgrade on my phone and after about 5 years of iPhones I'm now considering moving to the latest Samsung device. Has anyone got the Samsung and if so what's your thoughts on it?
Other than the obvious SMS/Phone functionality, I use the iPhone (currently 4s) for browsing the web, SkyGo, watching other TV on the odd occasion, reading (downloaded a few thousand books so handy for a bit of variety), livescore, music and RunKeeper. I also play the odd game on it.
Will I still get all those apps/functionality on the Galaxy? What about banking apps (Ulster bank, etc...), sky+, rte player, etc...?
I also see a few people talking on the TV Recommendations thread about streaming to the TV with either a HD cable or a dongle? Can you stream premiership matches live (my friend wants to know that one)? What's the quality like?
Is there anything else the Galaxy does/doesn't do when compared to the iPhone? Is it a fair bit bigger than the iPhone?
