Anonymous, 12 May 2013heyy r u frm delhi?? n its hw long u have been using this phone?? is it worth buying for 41k.??I am also from Delhi, ph is now sold near 39.5k its an awesome phone and really the fastest compared to all devices currently... while gaming u can quickly sweep and see msges, calls, FB etc and phone is super fast while doing this. Yes, it overheats sometime but cools soon as well.

Worth buying go ahead...

I got GS4 (GT-I9500) in Afghanistan, I am satisfied with its speed, battery life, display, nice features and camera but I have to mention that its sound quality is low.

Good points are that its display is awesome dual capture n recording a unique feature n slow motion n fast recording too worth flaunting..I like the design very handy than sharp cuts heavy look of xperia z r htc one design is more abt comfort than in looks plus chrome finish keeps it different from s3..headsets r awesome loud comfartable to ears..gorilla glass 3 dont even screen guard to protect...though with new android update I doubt the performance remains the same

I have been using s4 for like a month major drawbacks are first overheating which all are talking abt it occurs on heavy application use n some times on charging too....2nd is that in 16gb model of i9500 u only get 8 gb which is dissapointing 3 rd the processor lags on 3rd party applications...1gb ram is in continuous use bt still spped dont rocks...the new features air gesture air stay everythng sucks they smetime works n smetime they dnt so dnt flauntthem in front of friend....plus u cant take a screenshot without gestures...

Lots of Chinese phone companies coming up with mega screen multi core devices at half the price point of the S4. And some of the more reputed China brands like ZTE / Huawei have good build quality at that price point. Considering what Samsung is charging for the S4 (In the same league as iPhone or HTC One) I was expecting Samsung design to do much better with the materials. Shame! For 2013 I think The Blackberry Z10 and the HTC One stand out. S4 disappoints. Just feels cheap.

Hey GSM Arena!

Glad to see Octa scores, but these should be a photo comparison too, something yet to be done by any site testing both devices. There are differences expected.

Hello just got s4 here are the review. Its camera is similar to samsung 8 mega pixels. Try to zoom it n see. Its video is worst than s3. Its battery life however is very disappointing far below expectation. However,it display is top.

anyways I already got d sg4 i9500 model here in oman but when I came to see the demo units in the Samsung shops one in Sabco and in qurum city center that the model is i9505 which is the LTE version/snapdragon ... but why they sell the model exynos octa i9500 model instead...is samsung truthful about their products or would just want to earn money? just a thought

What phone can I purchase will work with LTE (or any other form of fast mobile internet) both in the uk and US? If not available now, are there any phones coming out soon with this capability? I plan on undertaking an exchange program in the US and I want to purchase the phone outright so I can then get a monthly contract.

got the 3g version of s4 fews days now and so far its doing good but the android os is still far from iOs in my opinion but the sensors of s4 rocks esp the air gestures .
overheating issuses , yes it has but I think its normal if heavy usage. but an update there and hope it wont continue.
about automatic shutdown , thought there wasnt but last night when browsing net then shifted to IG app for photo capture it suddebly restarted itself weird but hope again it wont continue.
after all I guess iOs still rules for its efficient system.

I'm not apple fan boy because i have samsung product and apple too, there is reason why apple this far gatget do not up multi core into quad or octa mybe the side effect of heat. That why apple think to srink the cpu size and find the right inggrediant max power, less heat, and long life battries. I think samsung must realize that way, not like a rambo, waste amunition design, by create many android type, and less support os. Just like. Dig own grave i think.
