i noticed Samsung learn fast... they know how to play PR... s3... gave free phones to XDA.

now... s4... everyone who owns one knows... 16GB model is useless since it gets you only like 8+GB of actually free space.

so...

Samsung responds to GS4 storage complaints, might free up space through 'further software optimization'
http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/samsung...aints-response/

After being taken to task by the BBC's consumer rights show, Watchdog, Samsung says it's looking into reducing the memory footprint of its TouchWiz features on its flagship Galaxy S4. A spokesperson told CNET UK that Samsung, "appreciate(s) this issue being raised," and that it is "reviewing the possibility [of] securing more memory space through further software optimization." The 16GB GS4 offers only 9.5GB of space for users to fill, but at least we know it's a possibility: Google announced yesterday that Samsung's Galaxy S 4 will arrive in an entirely vanilla Android guise this June.

that sounds great... hopefully they do free up some space

honestly, they could and should remove most of the hubs. let users activate them when users activate Samsung Apps or something. Example: When user enables Samsung Apps, Samsung Apps will then prompt to download these optional SW.... others that i find useless... FlipBoard. but i guess this one has to be there coz maybe Flipboard paid Samsung or coz they were nice enough to customise Flipboard for Samsung.

Oh, remove Chrome too...

hmmm... my bro just told me that his phone rebooted after he tried the camera apps... twice yesterday.

checked and seems quite a number of people do have this problem.

well, hopefully Samsung can sort this out.

for casing... i found the brand USAMS to be quite nice. lots of varieties. bought one for my bro... soft transparent (translucent, actually) case... to show off the s4. biggrin.gif

ya, actually, my bro is kinda upset... previously he used HTC Incredible S. i had told him not to get that phone... he saw me use Samsung S2, S3 and Note 1 and Note 2... and I guess he was very impressed and decided to give Samsung another chance -- he had bad experience with Samsung product before this.

now... kena lagi. i told him to just be patient... very sure an update will fix this. i the meantime, i told him to just pray harder each time he wanna run the camera apps.

kinda sad... but when i was testing out his unit... weird thing was... i din encounter such problem.

eh... you're using s4... then padfone leh? biggrin.gif
