Sometimes a restart is the 'cure-all'. But if you have to do it every so often then it becomes a major issue.

Nope. My friend work there. He told me he just received first s4 returned by customer due to overheat

There have been complaints about the phone getting hot. But, when you say overheat, can you please elaborate like, too hot to even hold in the hand?! And perhaps when you do know, what is done for that phone? RMA or battery changed because that's the problem? TQ.

I noted the screen display of htc one is far more superior than S4. What's your opinion?

There are 2 sides to a coin. Have read preference from both sides. So, there will be no end to whatever you intend to achieve by asking.

U guys have any idea how can I check the stock availability of s4 for maxis, without physically go to the centre itself?? Tried to google and even check maxis official website on the contact numbers, but can't find any.

And when I call the helpline to get the contact number for those centre, the staff said they do not have it. And the staff further added they can't check stock availability from their system.

Thank you in advance.

Maxis is useless in this besides many other things. You would have to be at their respective outlets to find out.

I've notice two music players that came pre-installed in the S4(Music & Play Music). Which is the so-called main music player? Cheers.

Since both are stock and provided music players, it's up to you which you want to use. UI and some functionalities are different, that's all.

"heating" is a non issue. Just because they felt "hot" without a temperature measurement doesn't mean a lot. As posted before, temps up to 50C are not a problem.

Battery isn't a problem either. Battery consumption is high due to the presence of bad apps. Will happen to ANY phone.

Wifi was recognised as a problem per the link in a few posts back, but I haven't read it. The only other reported problem seems to be intermittent camera performance, but is not afflicting a lot of people.
*
I too believe the issues are probably blown out of proportion but problems none the less. Being pedantic, for want of a better word, I don't want to be exasperated due to niggling issues. In any event, the timing is in my favor since the LTE version is yet to arrive at our shores.

Get an AP set for the "Nexus" S4 ? Same price, and if the LTE bands are compatible, should be fine. I've heard some AP sellers practices 1 to 1 exchanges with no questions asked, way better than SME service.

Nah, I have wowed never to purchase parallel imported gadgets due to adverse experience before though services from these guys may have improved. Waiting is never an issue for me. Do not need to be an early adopter as well for anything. Brought up such to be pragmatic, in fact sometimes, too.

I am also waiting for s4 LTE. But with so many issues reported, cheap plastic , non LTE, low on internal space, camera issue etc. I seriously considering HTC one. Now maxis already selling. +rm100 u get aluminium phone, 32gb and LTE. Not bad right?

To each his own. There is no right or wrong choice. You acquire what suits you. For me, the specs of the S4 intrigues me to no end, at least up to this point in time. But why is there so much displeasure over this phone, gawd!?

You just spoilt my party. I actually typed in that word but with a slightly devious intention I reverted to plastic with a hope I could engage in further debates with anyone or actually someone specific whom I hope will shout out his lopsided opinion.

We may actually ignore the whole nebulous "feel" thing since, it's, well, personal preference. The rest are objective, like the RAM, CPU, Screen size etc. Blame it on my training.

I also heard that from maxis center they will launch s4 lte on next batch but definitely price increasing rm300-rm400

Did you hear when then is the NEXT batch? If you heard correctly, the difference in price will not bode well with a lot of people.

That Maxis centre is talking nonsense.
LTE version will come no matter the earlier batch (non-LTE) finish sold or not.
*
I am guessing if it correct that Maxis is just deploying their own brand of marketing strategy. They do not care even if the LTE variant is out already and will put it out with their packages in their own time as they have a fairly chunky share of users which in their minds will equate to lots waiting for them to launch the plans for same.
