TRAAP:

Article: Galaxy S6 vs. iPhone 6
1. This article was written on September 17, 2014. It has not been updated since 8:52 am on that
day.
2. The day the article was written does relate to your topic because Apples release of the IPhone
6 was recent an article dealing with this must be as well.
3. The author of this article is Arvin Donguines. Donguines qualifies to write about this topic of
mobile phone because she is a fellow Christian Post Contributor herself.
4. The information is trustworthy because role as a Christian Post Contributor supports her
validity of the article post. The details she make are accurate based on sources from other sites.
5. The article was written to inform a Christianity based audience of readers, details of each new
mobile device new feature and allow them to evaluate which the reader might prefer. The Post
Contributor seems somewhat bias.
Scholarly journal articles:
Keywords I used to find these articles include IPhone 6 vs. Samsung Galaxy S6.
I used the CCBC library database at http://library.ccbcmd.edu/ .
Article 1: Apple iPhone 6 vs Samsung Galaxy S6: Apple, Samsung to Compete for
Graphene and Bendable Displays by International Business Times. International
Business Times. 20140523.
Article 2: Galaxy S5 Review: At Last, Samsung Decides That Less is More. by
McCracken, Harry. Time.com. 4/9/2014.
Comparison of the two journal articles:
The articles are in fact quite different. The first article seems to be in a more formal business-
like document with an audio speaker option. The second article is longer and less formal, and
apparently the text can be translated to other languages besides English. The first article was
written sometime in May of 2014, however the second was written in April. The two articles
are written in a time period not close to their release of the new phones. This means their
information can be invalid depending on updates on new features or debunked features that
were never true. The first article was written by a corporation International Business Times,
and the second article was written by an author named Harry McCracken.
