The recent launch of Galaxy S4 by Samsung has unknowingly raised a war with its predecessor Galaxy S3. Given that the GalaxyS3 is in the market for almost more than a year and thus available at a heavy discount from many carriers, it’s even more lucrative, especially for customers on a budget. This model had its successful run last year and it is also renowned for dethroning iPhone from the prime position in the third quarter of 2012.

Is the Galaxy S3 still a better player in the market where Galaxy S4 exists?

If we consider price not the only factor, then there are aspects of the design, battery life, software, hardware and features that make one phone of the either win this prestigious race. Going a step further I am jotting down the major differences between the Galaxy S4 and the Refurbished Galaxy S3 (recently bought from Gobol) to help you make the smarter choice for that ultimate Smartphone.

Both phones have a similar external build, same dimensions and almost the same weight with few aesthetic differences to distinguish them. A key point of differentiation is that the Galaxy S4’s bezel has narrowed considerably, lending a sleeker appearance and thus sometimes causes an issue with the S4?s Home button with thumb tapping the screen not the bezel. Also going by looks alone, the displays aren’t significantly different. The benefits of full HD 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution on such a small screen of Galaxy S4 are only felt in specific instances, such as watching movies and playing some games.

The Galaxy S4 Indian version features a Exynos 5 Octa core processor making it the quicker and more efficient but the Galaxy S3 still packs enough power to multi-task efficiently and to run the most complex applications. The Galaxy S4 launched with the latest version of Android Jelly Bean, 4.2 has pushed Samsung to update the G3 to Jelly Bean 4.1. If you value Smartphone that offers as much functionality as possible, then S4 is meant for you. If your needs are more basic, then you won’t miss out on much by going with the Galaxy S3.
