Now when the iPhone 4 is being officially announced, the real question on everyone’s mind is, how is it going to put up against the currently superior DROID Incredible? Well that the sales chart would decide, but what are your considerations- which is better technically? So lets figure out a comparative chart between iPhone 4 and DROID Incredible.
- LOOKS:
No comparison needed here, the Apple iPhone4 has much more curb plea with its alloy and steel parts compared to the plastic of Droid.
- SIZE AND WEIGHT:
The iPhone 4 dimensions differ really only in depth, and is considerably thinner than that of the DROID incredible.
- POWER AND BATTERY:
With regards to talk time, standby and usage times. The Apple iPhone 4 has the major advantage of being second to the shelf and could therefore beef up their battery to outlast the DROID Incredible. The Apple iPhone 4 offers a whopping 7 hours of talk time on 3G and 14 hours on 2G with standby time of up to 300 hours. In terms of internet usage, that means you can surf comfortably for around 6 hours on 3G and 10 hours via a Wi-Fi connection.
- PROCESSOR:
Apple again went the extra mile and designed their own new proprietary A4 chip which is not only faster than the 1GHz Qualcomm processor that the DROID Incredible offers, but provides less strain on the battery which means it saves more power so that their larger battery lasts even longer.
- CAPACITY:
Although the new iPhone 4 was expected to provide up to 64GB of internal memory, the actual spec came out to be the same as the iPhone 3GS upscale model at 32GB of total internal memory. By contrast the DROID Incredible offers a measly 8GB of internal memory with expansion capability of up to 16 GB via a mircoSD card for a total 24GB of storage.
- DISPLAY:
The retina display that the offer has a whopping 960 x 640 pixel resolution 326 ppi. The DROID Incredibe… 800 x 480. And while the DROID Incredible display is slightly larger at 3.7 inches compared to 3.5 inches.
- CAMERA, VIDEO, AND PHOTO’S:
The new Apple iPhone 4 will be equipped with a 5-megapixel backside still camera capable of recording HD quality video’s at 720p with up to 30 frames per second with audio. In addition the backside camera also offers an LED flash.Both phones come with their own photo management software and really offer similar capabilities though with the iPhone 4’s new features and offerings I believe the iPhone 4 would be the obvious choice if you are looking for a phone with capable video and photo editing capabilities.
Apple offers it’s home spun Apple iPhone OS 4 and the DROID Incredible make use of the new Android 2.2 OS and all of its features. Unfortunately there are just too many disparity and features to outline in this article, but the most noteworthy difference that to this point has put DROID in the running has been its ability to support multitasking.
