The battle between Apple’s iPhone and Android is beginning to look a lot like the age-old battle between Macs and PCs, except playing out on the mobile market. I compared Apple’s latest phone, the iPhone 4, to some ofAndroid’s top dogs. This is strictly a comparison of specifications, without taking into account more subjective factors like user experience. So let’s get to it: Which phone comes out on top in the hardware war?
