Both phones are as “smart” as they come. But, which of the two - in your opinion - is best?

Forget the old war with Blackberry. When it comes to producing the super smart phones and tablets, Samsung and Apple are now battling it out.

Has the new, sophisticated Samsung Galaxy S3 taken away from the ultra-trendy iPhone 4S?

When it comes to features, design, usability and functionality which, in your opinion, is better?

I’ve heard that the Samsung designed its S3 model as a direct competitor to the iPhone 5S – which hasn’t even hit the market yet.

Here are some interesting facts (please feel free to add to them if you know of any more):

•    Both have an 8 megapixel camera.
•    The Galaxy S3 weighs just 133g, while the iPhone 4S  is a bit heavier at 140g.
•    The iPhone 4S is easier to slip into your pocket, thanks to the smaller display.
•    You’ll get almost three times more talk time with a Samsung, which has a muuuch longer battery life.

But, I’m not an expert. The closest I’ve ever come to either of these handsets is gazing at them through a mobile display counter...

And, since I've had the same brick for close on two years now, I think it's time I consider getting an upgrade. Help me, wise ones!

Do you own either a Samsung S3 or iPhone 4S? Tell us which one you think is better?
