With a much worse indoor/low light conditions despite having 3 times more pixels? I believe the outdoor shot of One will get better as firmware is upgraded (iPhone 4 also has 5MP only, and is still a very capable shooter), but don't see firmware will help S4 in low light shoots.

To TS, personally I dislike TouchWiz, look comical and has a funny colour scheme. The newer Sense UI feels much more serious (in pictures, reviews etc.). Try both and pick the one you like the most.

The 4mp is a big deal if you use cam scanner app a lot.
Scanning quality will reduce. More mp the better, since can crop.

I'm using Samsung phone too. Touch wiz doesn't look nice if you're long term holo theme user.
Bt like all theme, eventually will get bored, change to tw once a while quite refreshing also.
There are aosp themes available if u know how to root. Some custom roms even have aosp themed by default.
Or there is always aosp roms like cm,aokp,pa.

lte matters now. It's only available in Klang valley at the moment, but it will be spreading out fast . lte is future proof. Even if u don't live in Klang valley u will enjoy lte when u visit. Phones are not investments. Most of us don't buy and sell like share market.

S4 no lte?
S4 have snapdragon and exynos version.
In gsm arena snapdragon one say got lte while exynos one market dependent.
Why malaysia s4 no lte? Frequency not match?

What is the point of having powerful processor if the software is still crap? Many ppl has complained that the gallery is lagging even though with octa core and 2 gig RAM!!!!
Even iPhone 2G never lags even a heartbeat when viewing photos.

SAMSENG engineers are only concern on making the best software for the next model e.g. Note 3, s5/6/7
Look at note 2. Still stuck at android 4.1 while iPhone 3GS runs latest iOS.

You are right about the touch wiz gallery.
iPhone 4 single core also can view photos very quick, and can scroll very fast.

Touch wiz gallery is very slow, even on s3.
Sony gallery is even slower when I check on Xperia s.
There's always delay when wana scroll through the pis quickly.

When using aosp gallery, it's good in terms of speed, but I notice pics will appear slightly out of focus at first, and takes half a second to be clear. Kinda weird.

I notice the short blur in most gallery app when viewing pics from the TV via hdmi
The short delay for the pic to load to full clarity is very obvious. Most likely wont notice the small lag for the pic to be clear on the phone screen itself.

The best/fastest gallery app is camera jb+
It comes with its own gallery that looks exactly same like stock gallery, but no delay when loading pis.
Very very fast.

when user have s3 and dont plan to buy s4,
they'll say "no big difference, not worth upgrading"

when user bought s4
they'll say "wow big improvement! worth the upgrade"
