Oh my. When we put the iPhone 4 and Samsung Galaxy SHD video recording skills head to head for you to compare yesterday, we were expecting it to go right down the line. But no: despite the praise we heaped on Apple’s camera and iMovie video editing software, you’ve opted for the Galaxy S. Viva Android!

We asked you to vote for which footage you thought was better between sample shots by an iPhone 4 and a Samsung Galaxy S over the last week’s heatwave, and you backed the latter Android blower (Fresh from a drubbing against the hands of the Dell Streak) in huge numbers.

A full 60.34 percent thought the Samsung Galaxy S shot better footage, more than double the 29.31 percent who said the iPhone 4 and its clever refocusing were better. Only 10.34 percent said they couldn’t’ see any difference (Yes, we know 0.01′s been lost in the rounding overall).

It’s another feather in the hat of the Samsung Galaxy S, which we gave a full five stars to in a first review last week, proclaiming it to be the “best phone Samsung has ever crafted”, but do you agree? Take a look at both clips below and let us know in the comments – are the majority of readers right to opt for the Samsung Galaxy S? Perhaps some bonus footage cut up on iMovie on the iPhone 4 will sway you – scroll down for that too.

    I think you should re-shoot the videos to show the same thing because the iPhones video was being interfered with the sun (or did the Galaxy S deal with this also?) and you didn't get to see as big a range of colours as you did with the Galaxy S.

    take the video at the same time, holding the phones together and test sound also by saying something and putting some music on, don't tell the the voters which is which. That would be the perfect test.

    Hah!
    What a GOOD test.
    However, my 2 years old son would take a same shot.
    Go ahead, and tell everyone the sun doesn't like iPhone.

    Obviously the samsung galaxy never had to deal with the sun in this shoot but iphone 4 did..not a fair comparison but others on youtube have done and iphone defenitely wins the camera supremacy…everything else is a battle though…one thing that does win is the price of the samsung against the iphone…hell of a lot cheaper…a better case for the samsung and flash led and it would be money for money the better option..
