Photo Comparison: iPhone 4S vs Samsung Galaxy Note

Jim Dalrymple posted an interesting picture on The Loop yesterday showing Samsung’s monstrous Galaxy Note next to an iPhone 4S. I’m sure Samsung didn’t intend for such a comparison to be so hilarious, but I can’t help but be amused at the monstrous size of this device!

The above picture shows Leo Laporte holding the two devices side-by-side. As CultofMac notes, however, some people were skeptical, suggesting that Leo might be holding the Galaxy Note closer to the lens than the iPhone, so they provided their own comparison shot taken at CES 2012 last month to drive the point home!

Let’s see – Monstrously huge screen? Check. Stylus? Check. Ridiculous, cartoonish appearance? Check. Maybe instead of trying to copy the iPhone, Samsung was really trying to copy the Newton (below image via Wikipedia)! Good thing I’m not a Samsung fan – I’d need to buy some new pants just to carry that thing!
