Pros
Has been my constant companion since purchase. No doubt about it being the BEST cell phone I have ever owned.

Cons
1. Limitations imposed by Android OS 4.4.2 prevents full communication & transfer capability between files on internal & external memory cards. (e.g. user's documents cannot be attached to text messages & e-mails unless user installs a high quality file manager (e.g. ES3 File Explorer) or equivalent. Primitive file management software (e.g. no copy/paste) imposes inability to view & make changes to text documents on internal & external SD memory cards.
2. Even though Samsung has made improvements in capability to create text documents by including Polaris Office software the process is still slow & cumbersome. For users of MS Word, Excel & PowerPoint, it is far easier & faster to compose a text document on the computer & transfer from computer to cell phone.
3. Often web pages are not compatible with Android OS , or only limited so. Adobe Flash is not supported by Android OS, so popup videos & illustrations cannot be viewed.
4. Software that installed update to Android 4.4.2 destroyed external memory card & all files contained there on. Suggest user install only Samsung 32GB external memory card, no other brand.

Best phone I have owned
on January 6, 2015

I have to say I love my Samsung Galaxy S4.Functions well, feels good and I love having a replaceable battery. In fact I purchased the Samsung spare battery pack & charger so I always have a fully charged spare battery to pop in when I need to. I actually do Tech support for cell phones for a living and have to say the Samsung Galaxy Family are my favorites.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight

A Smartphone Worth the Price
on December 29, 2014
Posted by: RichardDav3
from Cincinnati, OH, USA
Expertise:Expert
This handset may be going on two years old, but is still worth purchasing! The specifications are remarkable and the overall durability is outstanding. As a bonus, the device will be updated to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop, so the software will never lose its luster. Unfortunately, there is a good deal of bloatware. Who needs the Samsung Hub app? However, this should be uninstallable with Android Lollipop.
Pros: Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast and powerful, supported with updates (lollipop)
Cons: bloatware, s5 features missing
I would recommend this to a friend!
