Difference Between Motorola Pro and Apple iPhone 4

Motorola Pro vs Apple iPhone 4

The Motorola Pro is just one of the many smartphones that are vying for a piece of the pie which has been taken mostly by Apple and its iPhone 4. The first difference between the two that you would notice is the presence of a QWERTY keyboard in the Pro. The keyboard is much better at typing long messages but takes up a lot of space. The Pro is not much bigger than the iPhone 4, and to make room for the keyboard, Motorola used a smaller 3.1-inch display compared to the 3.5-inch display of the iPhone 4. The Pro also loses to the retina display of the iPhone 4 as its screen only manages HVGA resolution.

The iPhone 4 is well known for having a lot of internal memory but has no slot for a memory card. In comparison, the 8GB of internal memory of the Pro is small. But given that the Pro has a memory card slot and comes packaged with an 8GB microSD card, it is already at par with the 16GB version of the iPhone 4. More memory can be obtained by swapping the card to one with a higher capacity.

The two have similar specs when it comes to the main camera, but there is a major difference between the two when it comes to recording video. The iPhone 4 is able to record HD quality 720p video while the Pro can only manage 480p. The Pro also lacks a secondary front-facing camera that is often used on video calls. The iPhone has a front-facing camera, but it can only be used when connected via WiFi.

Lastly, there is a major difference when it comes to the operating system as the Pro has Android 2.2 while the iPhone has iOS–the discussion of which merits an entire lengthy discussion. Let’s just say that it is simply a matter of preference. Both have a lot of apps, have very refined interfaces, and are very user friendly. The iPhone 4 is more user friendly but doesn’t give the user as much freedom as Android on the Pro does.

1. The Pro has a QWERTY keyboard while the iPhone 4 doesn’t.
2. The Pro has a smaller screen than the iPhone 4.
3. The iPhone 4 has more memory than the Pro.
