Galaxy S IV - Galaxy S 4 General

What are your thoughts? I didn't like the broadway presentation much lol but the phone itself looks impressive

Man I can't wait to get my hands on it. The S4 is going to be great there are some features that i love. Touch less air view is one of them

Definitely agree, I believe us GS3 users are not as impressed as others. The gs3 set the bar so high, it's kinda hard to notch that with the s4. The obvious hardware upgrade is nice which I still don't believe android is ready for quad core, octa-core processors and again we might the least powerful one. All the camera stuff if you don't voice chat, then all that doesn't matter. Also the air wave is kinda overrated bet most of us won't use it,cool idea though. Might be stuck to stock browser too and for some reason I have never used it on this phone or previous one.

Not going to make me switch. I am actually more impressed with the HTC One due to the build quality.
I love my s3, but IMO most these features they have are gimmicky and I would hardly use majority of them. I will say the camera looks good, but also have been impressed with the Ones camera.
Honestly Id rather have a Note 2 over this.
I am sure it will sell well though.
Sent from a galaxy far away!

I'm not as excited about the S4 as I was about the S3. But that doesn't mean I won't get it! This phone will be too dope to pass up... Once I get that sexy beast in the palm of my hand, there's gonna be no going back. (that's what she said) Does anyone else think it's slightly weak that Samsung releases the S4 so soon after the S3? Obviously they know people like me will buy it anyways, but still.... Who wants to take a guess at off contract pricing for the Samsung Galaxy S4? Over $700.00? My guess is the $650.00 range.

Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app

The SIV looks just like the S3, that's the only downfall!
Other than that, yes.
I'll be getting the 64GB Version w/ a 64GB SD Card.

Don't get me wrong, its going to be a great phone for anyone who is not using the s3...
I just feel the "upgrades" are nothing plausible compare to the concept of s3...i mean i do not use all of the motions of s3...few additional ones are not going to change that because well...I wont' be using them. I do not voice chat so all the pretty camera things are cool.
Do I want it? yes...will I cough up another 200 bucks? Heck no! hell it wont be 200 considering t-mobile will probably sell it at what? 350? 400?
Its not plausable to the point I will drop my s3 and run after it...s3 set the bar too high for even samsung. This is like Iphone 4 and Iphone 4s...the s4 being the 4s...expect the gs3 blows the iphone out of the water so we wont even get on to s4.
Perhaps if the s5 comes around, we will talk

For me, I don't even like the Samsung software anyway, so all I pay attention to is the specs. Which means for me its just another notch up in the seemingly never-ending screen size growth of android phones; and some modest hardware upgrades.
I will say that the processor, new sensors (temperature, humidity & some others) and camera sounds pretty awesome, but nowhere near anything good enough for me to switch.
And Samsung with all its gimmicky software features is nothing in my eyes worth looking at trying out TouchJizz...

I won't be switching any time soon. Especially since I just upgraded on January 27. And it was a tough decision between this and the Note 2. Went with the S3 cause I got it for $99.99 at Target.
Sent from my wickedly awesome Galaxy S3 using my fingers. Duh!!!

I might be tempted to switch if they got rid of the soft buttons on the bottom of the phone. I'm constantly having to be wary of them and still managing to hit them and mess up what I was working on despite being careful...

Re: Galaxy S IV.
I plan on getting it. The specs look too sweet to past up...plus I'm due for a upgrade

US version no octo.

I hate waiting but come september supposing apple is on time with its new lineup, I'll be getting a free iPhone 4, 4s, and iPad from my family who is upgrading so I'll have plenty to sell/trade then.

I have a question.... Why are you on this forum exactly? You are using an iPhone to post to XDA, you're signature gave you away. If you look closely, this is technically an Android forum where we are currently discussing importing one ROM to another phone it has nothing to do with an iPhone whatsoever. Wait I thought you couldn't add custom roms to iPhones? Oh wait, you can't! Look man, even if you have multiple phones, apple or Android, you don't have to come on here and talk crap. Many developers, invest there time to fix things that are broken they don't get a check for this unless is through donations. Stop talking crap bro it doesn't look good on you.
+1 if you're just here to brag about your "superior iphone" and bash android you should just leave

Only major difference between the S3 and Note 2 are the screen size, and the Note 2 is quad core whereas the S3 is dual core. So really its personal preference, the Note 2's bootloader may or may not ever be unlocked so if hacking is more your thing i'd pass on it. If you want my personal opinion, i'd stick with your S3 and save some money
Keep with SIII. New firmware from Sammy will add all note features in Q1 2013. If I were to upgrade get a Nexus 4 which will also be in stock in Q1 2013 which has the similar specs to Note II such as 2GB RAM and Quad Core CPU.

In reality the S3 is still an amazing phone that can not only handle anything you throw at it, but it has pretty much every custom ROM, mod, kernel, and theme you could possibly want and will likely have great developer and community support for the foreseeable future so unless your really need the marginal better real world performance and the 0.7" bigger screen I would save your money and go with the S3. As far as which is more suitable for an apocalypse, neither, because once there is no more electricity both would be useless once they ran out of battery (Unless you constructed a hand crank generator or solar cell charger ). Also I imagine all cellular infrastructure needed for voice and data to work wouldn't function either. Accessories wise a good case like the Otterbox Defender Series would be perfect to prevent the phone from getting banged up and scratched (It includes a built in screen protector).
Try both and see what fits in your hand more comfortably. If you are seriously concerned about the apocalypse, the Note II might make for a better weapon due to its size.

I just went to an electronics store today, and it was displaying the galaxy note 2. It looks amazing. I played with it a little bit. It is really zippy; everything turns on instantly when u click on it. It is a little big, but very light and slim. You could actually fit in a regular pocket. I am still debating of whether to get the s3 or the note2. Although the note2 would fit perfectly for my work, because I converse a lot on the computer through emails, charts and PDF documents.

Although it seems like a great device, I don't see that "wow" factor over the s3. I have like 5 upgrades that I could use and it still doesn't seem worth it. The software will eventually make its way over here. My hardware never seems underpowered and my battery life is great so my real world upgrade would be for a nicer screen.

S4 looks like 15k Micromax or Lava phones. Nothing like 41.5 k

So many shopkeepers Samsung shops. in Delhi and NCR and punjab now boldly describing S4 as a flop set.
Because from sharp back it's looks like cheap range Samsung phones like Galaxy grand or local phones like Micromax Canvas.

Seriously, you just realized this AFTER buying the phone? I didn't buy Note II thinking it was a gorgeous looking phone coming from an HOX. Don't you like get to look at the display models before buying? Or at least watch videos or something?
And oh, S4 is MUCH nicer than S3/Note II. And I'm not even planning to switch to S4.

I just buy online and when I received my white s4. I feel so disappointed coz white looks so much like previous phones from backside.
As black looks little more premium.
But overall it's bad design.

Return it back your clearly not happy with your purchase. Get something else if it bothers you that much on the way it looks simple.

95 % users buy phone for looks these days.
Other 5 %user also don't need this much power like octa core or display more than 720
Mostly people don't even notice or recognise looks of S4.
I feel very disappointing

You are disappointing bro.
Apple understood human nature long time ago and Samsung will follow soon enough. Most people will (over)pay for something as long as it can convey the impression of themselves as exclusive. No feature is as valuable as the mass appeal. Appearance and publicity are the new God. Welcome to the Matrix
It seems I took the wrong pills today

So before even watching the videos or looking at any pics, you ordered the device? What'd you expect exactly? Entirely your fault for not doing your research.
Either way, it seems more "premium" than S3/Note II to me personally. Don't like the design? Buy a back cover or shouldn't have even ordered it in the first place. Get an HTC One and be happy with it. Or an iPhone.
