iPhone Killer!

Until now, I saw a lot of products claiming to be their competitors' "killers," but in most cases, they ended up only with "killer features," and disappointing behaviour in real life. This time, we're talking about an "iPhone killer." Another one? Well, this is not just "another iPhone killer" because, by the looks of it, it may just be "THE iPhone killer" a lot of people were waiting for, except those from Apple, of course. Today, it's not about technical specifications, it's about a head to head race, and the competitors are Apple's current iPhone, and Samsung's brand new "Instinct." Are you ready for the ride?


Before moving on with the article, I would like to thank the Marketing/Publicity team at M80 in Los Angeles for contacting us and providing the information we used for this article, namely the video comparison between the iPhone and the Sprint Samsung Instinct. Obviously, you can look at the movies and be amazed as I was, but I think some things need to be added, before ending our little chat here.

No matter how much some would like to see the iPhone buried, we should all be aware that the Sprint Samsung Instinct was announced about a month ago, while the iPhone as we know it could be already considered an "old" product. Considering the above, I think a comparison between the Samsung Instinct and the upcoming 3G iPhone would be more suitable, but I really don't know if Apple will manage to speed it up that much. Again, just look at the video comparison, saying anything else is pointless!

Anyway, nothing is perfect, and one of Instinct's weak points may be the storage capacity - only up to 8GB for now, but I am sure this can be solved pretty easy in the coming months with a minor product update, just as it happened with the iPhone.

If you didn't pay close attention to all the movies, then let me add that the feature list of Samsung's smart phone includes the now common touchscreen interface, 2.0MP camera with 2X zoom and camcorder, visual voicemail, GPS navigation and search, as well as advanced customization possibilities. Obviously, this is only the top of the iceberg...

Ladies and gentlemen, here you have it - the Sprint Samsung Instinct, a real iPhone killer! If it will also manage to be a "3G iPhone killer," that remains to be seen. Anyway, for now, we have no idea on pricing or availability, so you could do exactly the same thing as we do - keep your eyes on the Samsung Instinct official site, waiting for the pricing information to appear!
