Wonderful phone with a lot to offer!

I've been using this phone for a bit now and it has been a pleasure to use. The form factor is really nice. My hands aren't that big, but the S4 does not feel like a huge device at all. Admittedly, there are times where apps have swipe features that can be a bit of a challenge with only one hand. Still, it handles great and gives you an amazing display.
There are a couple things I'm not a fan of with the S4 though. First, I'm not too big on the TouchWiz launcher. I wish I could customize it more and make it work like how I want it to. Having limited scrolling and a smaller space for apps pull it down. Thankfully, it is Android. A trip to the play store and a free download of Nova Launcher make this phone extraordinary! Widget Lock is also another great addition to this phone. Couple those highly customizable features with this phones processing power and get ready for a ride! Best of all, you keep the warranty and all the extra features Samsung put into this beauty!
The second thing I wish were different was the speaker location. I don't like repositioning my hand just to get better results from the speakers. Hopefully, future devices will have front facing speakers.
Overall, I'm very happy with this phone. It's my first Samsung device and it is also the first device where I got a perfect one of with no returns or repairs needed.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, powerful, reliable
Cons: touchwiz needs work, speaker location
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Very Satisfied Customer

I read several reviews on the Galaxy S4 (Verizon) and was excited to purchase one. Needless to say, I am a very satisfied customer. For me, the display quality and performance are most important and I have to say this device has exceeded my expectations. I have installed several apps and all of them run flawlessly. There are a ton of features packed in, as well. Most users will probably not use all of these features, but I love playing with new gadgets, so this device will keep me busy for a long time. The Galaxy S4 is feature-rich, has a solid build, has great performance and is a great value. It will not disappoint.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, features, compatibility with samsung products
Cons: expensive samsung brand accessories

I have been waiting to buy this phone it works well with my other Samsung products, I love the mirror function and being able to use it as a remote is wonderful. I like the hand wave feature that it has. Although I just got this phone I am making sure that I go thru everything so I can get the full usage out of it. Great phone Samsung !!!!

Great user experience, very breakable screen

The Galaxy S4 performs excellent, however the screen breaks easily. Many consumers have seen cracks starting from the top middle-right side of the screen under normal-use circumstance. Under careful care this is a great phone.
Many features are amazing, including the tap-transfer of images. Some features are hard to use like the auto-scroll.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality

This phone has been used by almost everyone in my family and we have all found that it is sturdy. I drop this phone almost everyday and it still looks brand new. However, I have found that my phone is starting to not handle some of the newer and more demanding apps.
Pros: Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight

Great phone

I have now had this phone for 2 weeks. I had been a huge fan of Samsung products in the past, but wanted to try a new OS and switched to Iphone. Frustrated with the lack of fun/cool apps for the Iphone, and loving the features I decided to give the Galaxy S4, and Android a try again, and boy am I glad I did. This phone has awesome features, and speed. My wife has the Iphone 4, and my daughter the Iphone 5. My phone blows theirs out of the water. It has turned into a running joke that when they say that the phones they have will not do something, I pull out my Samsung Galaxy S4 and show them that mine will. LOL
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight, features, speed
Cons: Too big, battery life
