    Superb phone, better than iphone5 but a little plastic. Bought 32 extra memory, so had a 48 from the get go. One cant do this with the iphone5. Do get the plastic cover and protection!

    Small Step Forward

    Ultimately I traded my Galaxy S4 in for an HTC One. I really liked many of the features of the S4, prefer the Samsung software, but in the end the HTC One was a better choice for me. I have small hands and my biggest issue with the S4 is it is a bit too large, and the cheap plastic case is very slippery and did not feel secure in my hands. A case may solve this, but would make the phone even larger for me and was not an acceptable solution. Many of the advancements on the S4 I would consider "fluff" and not all that useful to most people, but that doesn't mean it isn't a good phone. Good, solid phone just not as big of a step forward as I would have liked to see. They also need to improve the build quality of the phone.

    More features than I will ever use

    This phone has more features than I will ever use or have the time to learn. Battery life could be better. I need to download a third party e-mail app because the native email client does not work well with POP type e-mail accounts and Samsung tech support could not correct the problem of e-mails that have been read being marked unread every time it went to the server. What I found to be another shortcoming is that you cannot get the display to stay on when the phone is docked. While nice in concept to have the screen scroll by following your eyes and being able to perform commands without touching the screen, in practice it leads to scrolling when you don't want it and activating of operations that you do not want.

    Coming from a iphone 4 this is night and day. Everything on the samsung is better. Although android app store is poor in comparison with iTunes store, the phone makes up for it.

    Great phone features, picture, options. This seems to be the best out there. The iPhone another family member has even though very good is not quite as good as the Samsung.
