Samsung Galaxy S4 vs iPhone 5 - Design Samsung Galaxy S4 – 7.7mm thick, plastic rear iPhone 5 – 7.6mm thick, aluminium rear Unlike comparing the Samsung Galaxy S4 with its Android rivals, where body shapes and sizes are similar at this high-end level, the Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5 are completely different. It may sound trivial, but one of the most important design differences is that the Galaxy S4 is over 1cm wider than the iPhone 5.

Replacing the housing of an iPhone 5 with an unofficial repairer online will cost you £150. A replacement battery cover for the S4 can be had for a few quid from eBay. Winner: iPhone 5 |
