iPhone 5s vs. Samsung Galaxy S6 for 4 years
Hello, everyone!
I'm going to buy a new smartphone tomorrow for 3-4 years use.
I had been a Samsung fan for 5-6 years. I had the Samsung Galaxy Young (2011-2013), then I had the Galaxy Core (2014), and I exchanged my Galaxy Core with my mother for a Samsung Galaxy SII Plus (2015). All these phone have slowed down and started to lag after ONE YEAR of use. And my Galaxy SII Plus is disappointingly slow now too. Yes, I restart my phone regularly (once a week or two) and I have only about 15 apps installed. I don't use snapchat, facebook or other apps that may use loads of RAM. I only have Viber and Skype installed. Rebooting the phone slightly reduces lag, but it comes back after a day or two. BAD experience with Samsung.
I have to make a decision I will be happy with for approximately 4 years. I need to decide whether I'm buying the iPHONE 5S or the SAMSUNG GALAXY S6. I want my phone to be fast and not to lag for the mentioned period of time.
I LIKE both iOS and Android interfaces. I don't customize my Android, so customizability is not a feature for me. I want a fast and reliable phone. And I've also heard that the Samsung Galaxy S6 battery life is poor... Will it not be an issue?
Should I give a fourth change to the Samsung or buy my first ever ios device - iPhone 5s?
Thanks in advance
Edit: I will use a case for any of these two phone. So I wouldn't break those fancy touchscreens that cost much.
