    Of course samsung are going to get all defensive about it haha.

    Maybe you should read this one - from the same site. Make sure you look at the example photos.



    for instance:


    Also, I found out that regular OLED screens only have capacity to show 65k colors. That means HTC evo 4g etc. Iphone 4 shows 16 million. Super AMOLED like samsung galaxy S can do 16m but only has half the resolution. IPS tech comes from apple cinema displays, and has better color accuracy than OLED. OLED blows color channels - is over saturated etc - especially in reds/oranges, but will also give blacker blacks because of no need for backlight.

    Apple is first and foremost a software company. Ipods are made by a contracted company in china and use toshiba, samsung and seagate harddrives and bits and pieces. You'll find most decent mp3 players use the same or similar parts. The difference is in construction and software.

    For instance my imac uses matsushita (panasonic) cd drive, toshiba HD, intel chip, kingston ram etc.

    Ipad + iphone 4 "a4" processor is an apple designed chip, reputably made by samsung. HD is most likely toshiba.

    etc.

    Though it has to be said that a lot of the parts they use aren't shared with other brands. For instance integrated graphics chips on the laptops are apple only from nvidia.

    Hardware specs is only a small part of how something runs. More important is how the software and hardware co-exist, and how good the software itself is. You can buy HP/Dell etc computers that have the same great physical quality as (for instance) a macbook pro, but they cost the same.
