In 2010 I purchased the Samsung Galaxy S Captivate and was on the Android train from then on. But in hind sight, I had no reason to choose the Galaxy S over the iPhone 4. I'd say until the Galaxy S3 or S4, the iPhone was objectively better in more ways. I went through so many Captivates, Atrix, and Atrix 2s... Even a few Galaxy S3s and S4s. Lots of warranty claims were filed with software glitches.

There's no battle between these two devices because the iPhone 4 is unusable due to the proximity sensor issue. It's completely unreliable because the phone will mute itself, turn on the speaker during conversations and cheek-dial half of the time. All this coming from an Apple fanboy that has had every iPhone since its inception, owns a MacBook Pro, a MacBook and a Mac Mini. I now own a Captivate and it's flawless.

I'm an iPhone 3Gs user and am going to upgrade next month. Think I'm going with the Captivate. I've actually fooled around with one and I must say that it does all the iPhone does except front facing pics/calls and take pictures in poor light. Retina display is amazing and noticeably more crisp than amoled, but iphone's proprietary limitations are driving me elsewhere. Plus Job's smugness is a little much.

I've been an iphone user since the first version. It's a good phone. But I got sick and tired of all the proprietary cables that you have to buy just to charge the thing. And don't get stuck in an airport with it. I was in O'Hare for 6 hours last week. You will notice all the outlets are used up by IPHONES. I just bought the Captivate with an extra battery. I get a solid smartphone and I don't have to be a slave to the power outlet. Captivate wins for me on that alone!

My friend has the samsung galaxy S (not captivate), and my cousin has the iphone 4. The iphone 4 is TOO similar to my 3gs other than the camera and the screen. The galaxy S just looks so much sicker and the screen is honestly nicer on it. It's more lightweight, feels better in the hand too.

@ColonelChaos09 i think this reception problem with the iphone is being blown out of proportion. It does not render the phone useless, it is a minor nuisance maybe on par with the slight glitchyness on my droid. The iphone 4 is a really great phone, it has an awesome screen, an unrivaled app store (say what you want about developer freedom the apps on iphone are simply better quality), a great simple ui, and itunes integration. I dont know if its better, but the iphone is not a crappy device.

I just brought the captivate and the phone is awesome. It kind of has a small learning curve to it, like with the battery. My phone was dying before 3pm everyday until I figured out why they put the battery usage function on it. Lol. 93% of the battery drained because of the auto adjust screen function. I took it off and it solved my battery issues. And guess what, the screen still looked awesome. So my conclusion since that was taken care of BEST PHONE ON AT&T. And its speed is amazing.

They didn't hold a press conference to show you how other phones lose GPS when you drive through a tunnel, which is what Apple would have done.
