Still a Great Phone
on September 22, 2014

This is a very powerful and still strong phone that should be in consideration if you do not wish to fully commit to a flagship phone and pay a higher premium.
The S4 has a great camera, wonderful screen with great color depth and has exception features most of which you may not use. The gesture features are nice but they don't work all of the time, many of them involve your hand and waving it over the light sensor to operate hands free. They sometimes work but mostly are mediocre at best when it comes to capturing your movement.
The camera is very good. It has the HDR capability which expands the richness of color and especially is useful in places where contrast is paramount to getting a great photo.
Overall the battery life is great, make sure to have Power Saving mode on at all times to ensure that the screen brightness is managed automatically. Otherwise the brightness cranked up to full will definitely hamper battery performance. Not a single freeze has occurred since I have owned this phone. The fit is great, not too large for my hands but has a great feel to it.
I do miss the slightly curved edges which the S3 provided but the overall function and performance of the S4 most definitely makes up for the aesthetics I was previously used to.
This phone is great, and is still a very strong contender for those who want a powerful phone but yet do not want to shell out the big money for a purely premium flagship. You will not be disappointed.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color

The S4 has has Excellent download speeds and clear crisp pictures with it's 13 mega pixel camera. I highly recommend the Galaxy series of devices to everyone!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, excellent battery life
Cons: only available in white or black

Works great, but...
on September 15, 2014

from Kentucky, USA
Expertise:Intermediate
Is much better than my previous phone. Better call quality, faster browsing, faster app installs, better camera. The multi-app feature is awesome. Screen quality is great, I watch a lot of TV and video on my phone.
The no touch features, I don't like. The Air Wave is kinda annoying (skips music at the SLIGHTEST wave over the screen). I haven't found a video yet that works with the Smart Pause. The Smart Scroll (scrolling based on head movements) I don't use, it scrolls ALL around, but I don't exactly surf in the brightest light. But, I use the quick preview feature when the phone is on standby.
Haven't had to use the other features. I would really recommend an S4 to anyone.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, fast fast fast, dual app running, overall programming
Cons: lots of bloatware, touch free stuff doesn't really work as advertised
I would recommend this to a friend!
