AnonD-129371, 29 Mar 2013Who uses FM anymore? That's for poor people who can't afford a data plan.You fucken kidding? I live in korea and have unlimited lte. I still prefer a solid fm radio to silly digital one.

But for some people who don't really have the sense of art and merely look on practicality or effectiveness, SGS4 design maybe still fulfill their need :) For me? One is the best combination so far, great look with good performance!

        Design is better because samsung have maintain big screen with smaller dimensions and low weight. Features are great for be a no.1 smartphone.

          Supernova is the exploding of dead star. I can't relate any of the highlight mentioned with the dead of galaxy series and I think it will still sell well despite the look.

            the only disadvantages for me are:

            no fm radio(wikipedia included fm radio in the specification of the s4, we will wait and see)

            video recording is worse than the s3(i wish it can be fixed by software update)

            htc one is my second choice.

              In my eyes, Samsung Galaxy S IV looks very good. It have a very clean and simple look. And this is what peoples really want.

              And the fact that the Galaxy S IV looks awesome because of how much of the front that are used to the screen it self is also something everybody likes.

              To take an iPhone 5 as an example, it looks stupid because of the really bad usage of the screen on the front. So here it doesn't help that the backside of the iPhone 5 looks good.

                    LG best Ever, 29 Mar 2013Optimus G2 is coming...............LG is very know for having horrible support for their smartphones.

                    So no thanks. I'll rather stay on Samsung who are the best one to release software updates to their smartphones.

                        Main disadvantage

                        Design is a bit played out by now
                        Hyperglaze finish doesn't feel as premium as aluminum on HTC One or glass on Xperia Z
                        No FM radio
                        Video recording is slightly worse than on the Galaxy S III; FOV in video is pretty narrow
                        Shared camera interface makes framing tricky

                        This phone is VERY UGLY! LOL!

                          Super amoled hd with high contrast will be superb. Surely it is my next smart phone.

                            That's what peoples want to have.

That's for poor people who can't afford a data plan.The people who cried about lack of FM radio when the Lumia dropped support. I know, right. Analogue radio is finally getting a few more nails in the coffin. Too slowly tho.
