How is a samsung galaxy better than an iphone?

I want a galaxy but I want to know how they are better… In many ways…

They are not, stay with the iphone

Its different for everyone, some find the Ui slick or it physically looks more aesthetically pleasing to eye

I like the galaxy because I like android and the kit is quite new

Samsung has an Android system so therefore you have a large variety of apps to download for free from the play store and an iphone is a girly phone, easily breaks and just, i don't know, I throw my samsung around and it still works.

Apple is overrated

The S3 and S4 are better in so many ways I can't list them here. Google a comparison.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (7-Inch, White) is better.
I'm a long time user and owner of Samsung devices including the original Tab 1 and currently have the Note II smartphone. I lead with that information in order to provide some context in describing the Tab 3 which is simply a wonderful device for the money and for the ease of operation in most anything you'd want a tablet for and to do.

The display is far improved over the earlier tab. It's like going for SD to HD in one fell swoop. The setup and getting it synced with the home network Wi-Fi was far easier than I had thought it would be. The same can be said for tying into the Google disciplines. Once I set up my existing Google Gmail transfer, I was able to easily tap into my existing Amazon kindle account and start reading from my personal books library. The Tab 3 is fast, looks great and is easy to operate. Also, within the first 10 minutes of setup, I accessed my Netflix account and was viewing various movies which came in LOUD (good volume/speakers) and clear.

Summing up, the Tab 3 is a significant upgrade over the first Samsung Tab and for the price of about $200, I don't see how you can beat the value with any other device out there.

1.) Galaxy is not as fragile as any apple product
2.) Much cheaper for the same thing
3.) Has an awesome camera, so many apps, and the accessories are cheaper too.
4.) It's not overrated.

Samsung is a cheaply made POS that breaks when it touches something. IPhone is better looking and more reliable

The GS4 is so much better than the iPhone 5 and it is cheaper. Everyone out there that claims the iPhone is better are just fanboys trust me. I owned an iPhone before and Android before. It is clear which is better. I will respect Apple in how they make their UI really smooth and iOS is a very simple operating system. But, that doesn't make it the better operating system. And Apple clearly does not have the best hardware under the hood. GS4 runs a 450 PPI super AMOLED display (1080 P) while the iPhone runs 312 PPI (720). GS4 runs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.9 GHZ Octa-Core Processor while the iPhone 5 still runs the outdated A6 chip at a below average 1.2 GHZ Dual core speed. GS4 holds a 13 MP camera with better advanced LED flash while the iPhone 5 holds an 8 MP with decent low light resolution. The HTC One, Nexus 4, Sony Xperia Z, etc are All better than the iPhone 5. The world today loves the iPhone 5 but they have failed to see Android rise from nowhere and take over the smartphone world with the best hardware and most advanced OS. IOS 7 is also not better than the new Android 5.0 with Google Now having a full core dedicated to listening to your voice and ONLY your voice even if your phone is locked. Siri can't do that. Google Now reaches the Google engine to search and integrate simple things to the complicated. New Siri can't do that. New iOS 7 features like dropbox, live weather, live wallpapers, etc? Android had since 4.0 OS. IPhone is no longer the best phone out there.iOS isn't even the most diverse and integrative anymore with open source android. This is a NON bias view on both devices. Really. If you don't believe me just google the specs of the GS4 compared to the iPhone 5.It is not even a competition. GS4 wins in a landslide. I don't even want to start on the better functionality of the GS4 with NFC connectivity, immediate integration with your Google account, more customization, camera usage (Check out the multiple picture feature or the Zoe feature on HTC One) and a whole lot more that I can't explain in this answer. Heck even the GS3 released last MAY is better than the iPhone 5 released last SEPTEMBER. GS3 runs the same retina display with the same camera but a quad core processor instead of the iPhone's dual core and it came out more than four months BEFORE the iPhone 5. Don't fall for the overrated iPhone 5. IPhone once dominated the smartphone market. Its stocks are dropping. They have clearly fallen way behind Google's Android in phone research and development

Every way except build quality.
