Samsung Galaxy S4 beats iPhone 5

 With just one hour left, it is to be believed that Samsung Galaxy S4 takes easily and dominates on Apple's iPhone 5. Still not consoled :-(, here you go...
 

Sleekness
Well Samsung Galaxy S3 has proved already to be more sleek than iPhone, so its not a surprise that Galaxy S4 is going to be much more sleek in dimension and feel good in hands.

Display
While iPhone carry only 4 inch screen max from all its latest version, so this is a game that Samsung has already got Apple dead. So Galaxy S4 will be like killing a dead iPhone 5 snake. Don't be surprised that Samsung Galaxy S4 is gonna carry display somewhere near 5 inches.

Processor
If rumours has to be believed then Galaxy S4 would be carrying 8 core processor, which is almost double the Apple's iPhone 5 processor given its metrics.

Memory
Galaxy S4 gonna carry 2 GB RAM, compared to iPhone's 1GB RAM

Camera
I think I don't have anything here to say, as Galaxy's camera is rocking more than iPhone's cam.

Battery
This is homeground for Samsung, where it always wins.

Samsung gonna live stream the event at New York time 4pm.. hence stay tuned and catch the streaming in http://new.livestream.com/cnet/SamsungGalaxyS4

Wishing Samsung Galaxy S4 huge hit and stiff competition which is needed for Apple & Microsoft :-) And don't forgot that Samsung is ready with its 100 Million Galaxy S4 ready at its Hardware manufacturing unit ..../

My view is Galaxy S4 would be Samsung's last best Android phone, as Google has already started working out on reaping max benefits and hindering Samsung's dominance.

Samsung's Tizen Game - Will it be a flop or hit

While Samsung surprised everyone with it's announcement of Tizen phones to make debut in 2013, there is no doubt that Google, Microsoft, Apple, etc started paying close attention. Tizen as the news progressed, it was of thought that it would stand against or even overtake Android, iPhone, WP8. But with first look at the Tizen phones in MWC 2013, then it seemed to be just an another mobile operating system preparing to die or subside.

First look at the user interface of the home screen looks very preliminary and not so appealing to be on par with high end smartphones. The home screen looks 2D and doesn't have that X factor appeal that goes with iPhone or Android. Even the elements in the Tasks screen, where you can choose to close the running apps looks very preliminary. Smudged buttons and not so rounded corners shows clearly that Tizen has to evolve a lot or needs some more years to materialize. Seamlessness is a major factor which makes an operating system click. iPhone, Android, WP8 has got these factors which makes them unique and standout.

Although it was a cautious decision taken by Samsung to have a backup operating system, it cannot make Samsung grow at the same pace as it is now with its Android phones. Samsung bets more on its Galaxy brand, with which it could perpetuate Tizen into the market. But it would see the decline of it very sooner. On a business front it will have a initial reach but it is just going to subside eventually.

While if it is targeted for mid-end or low-end smartphones similar to Nokia's Asha, then it will have its chance of stake there. But with high-end phone market it is very tough or will struggle like BB10. And secondly this might even turn out to be a game spoiler for its Galaxy brand value.
