In reply to kenny dunning. why can't they use the A7 to shoot 4k video or 1080p at 60fps or use two cameras at once. On the Note 3 you can because it uses the new exynos octa core 5420 with 3GB of lpddr3 memory. 5420 uses all 8 Cores at once now.

In reply to Feddi. I thought that was 300 ppi? I can't tell but many of my friends can easily discern ppi higher than 300.

In reply to Android1031. Well according to scientist, the human eye can only register 230 ppi max on any screen under 6 inches. Many never do their homework on this topic as any resolution that high on any smartphone screen is overkill and the human eye wouldnt be able to tell the difference anyway lol

I bought an S4 last Friday and still haven’t learned all it can do…seems there is more press for the other less capable phones for some reason.

Iphone 5S resolution is a None HD 1136×640. 1GB of memory and not enough for a 64 bit A7 to run it at its full potential which require at least 4GB

In reply to elderjlward.

They’re obviously not including the actual resolution because the iPhone 5/5c/5s currently have the lowest resolution (not even 720p) and ppi of any manufacturer’s current flagship device.

I’m a current iPhone 5 owner and have no interest whatsoever in either the iPhone 5s or its Romper Room inspired iOS update so I’ll be moving on the a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 + Galaxy Gear as soon as they’re released for sale.

The Lumia 1020 allows you remove moving objects. Please include the resolution for the iPhone rather than the name of its screen technology. There is no way to compare resolutions. The same can be said of if the iPhones front facing camera. Using the brand name of, FaceTime, does not provide a means to compare front facing cameras. Also the 1030 has xenon flash AND an LED.

Lol I love how they put “retina” or “facetime HD” instead of actually putting the real numbers…probably because the S4 is better in both categories.

Every time I try explaining the resolution of the S4 to my iphone friends, they respond with “retina”
