U.K. Ad Authority: Apple, Not Samsung, Has Thinnest Smartphone

iphonevsgal2Last time we heard from the UK's Advertising Standards Authority, they had blocked Motorola from claiming that their Atrix handset was the world's most powerful smartphone since its processor is slower than the Galaxy S II's. While they came down on Samsung's side that time, that isn't the case now: they have ruled that the iPhone 4, and not the Galaxy S II is the world's thinnest smartphone.First, a little background: Apple has been referring to the iPhone 4 as the world's thinnest smartphone in advertising and promo materials for a while now, but a rival for the crown popped up when the GSII was released. Samsung's svelte new model is indeed thinner at certain points, measuring in at 8.71mm at its thinnest. It's a considerable enough difference from the iPhone 4's 9.3mm depth that it would've been a clear victory were it not for the Galaxy S II's 9.91mm thick hump.
