thanks a lot uncle..because referring to previous s3...availability is quite fast...latest one month after launching...compare to htc one...now maybe need to see the motorola nxt...

Airview is not really useful. I turn it off on my note 2.

Smart pause is just a software thingy that will most likely make its way to other Samsung highend phone once they get the 4.2 update. Hence making it just another common feature.

The big ass battery capacity dunno if will able make the phone last for 2 days without charge?

kinda dilmma between sony Z and S4.. cos sony z got the stamina thing can last phone very long

- Design look a bit better than S3.
- Hope the texture backcover is true.
- Display should be excellent.
- Gorilla Glass 3..!?? Any other phone using GG3..?
- Battery is okay..prefer 3K one though.
- LTE..check. Hope we having the LTE version otherwise i wont even consider buying it.
- 4.2.2 right out from the box..great. Others will wait long long neck to get even 4.2.1
- Removable battery..check. Eat your heart out One and XZ.

Pentile display why samsung whyyy

s4 quad a15 with 544mp3 packs more raw power compare to iphone 5.. i am very skeptical about snapdragon 600 processing power.

Where do you working..!?
One day per charge is enough already.
Btw..S4 use removable battery. Just buy an extra battery if you so worried.

Design not much changes, haiks, what the hell

Samsung just want to continue with their signature designs of s3/note. Take away the logo n you know is Samsung. Potential buyers expecting a drastic change will be dissapointed. A strategy adopted by many manufacturers. Is a matter of whether you like it or not. Time will only tell whether such a strategy will still work for Samsung. They are flithy rich n can just easily drop n upgrade to newer model within months .S4 is in its additional software n again its usefulness depends on user.

apple also like that

I think they want maximise their profit, so they din invest much in design, haiks...

Just like what people say, Apple with steve job is a innovative company, Apple with Tim is a profitable company

Hmm..HTC One have better design but SGS4 have more features and really user friendly. Whichever come first will get my money...lolz

i read in smartphone review S4 got wireless charging

Thats kinda really cool... wonder how far is the distance for charge..

this is my main reason why I dont adapt Samsung as they keep dropping or launch new model with months ...

you need buy wiressless charging pad

Distance? NO. Wireless charging means you need to place the phone on the charging pad without any wires. Its not practical for people that wanna use their phone while charging.

so mr benny, would you like to give it a try(s4)? or you might skip it? just asking your opinion

Roughly around 6ft under....bwahahaha

i feel weird watching the presentation..

Positives:

-Exynos 5 Octa processor(but it's clocked at 1.6ghz only, quite low imo)
-4.2.2 out of the box. HTC One 4.1.2 out of the box, and HTC is well known for not giving consistent software updates. So god knows when you will get 4.2.2 on Htc One.
-13mp camera
-removable battery and Micro SD card(one of the things which stop me from considering Htc One)

Negatives:
-PenTile arrangement display. This is a real wtf. They're already on a HD screen why cant they just abandon pentile once and for all. because of this s4 has 441 ppi and htc one has 468 ppi. Real bummer
-Boring design, doesn't look sleek or elegant, doesn't look premium to say..
