Yup, that's why she became the EX. Only few will really appreciate this comment. Semper Fi

      Looking to purchase this active phone, one question though, are the physical buttons below the screen "loud"? As in do they "click" or "pop" when pressed? (Not through the speaker, etc, but actual noise. Thank in advance.

        I love the phone, had it underwater and worked great! Videos are excellent underwater! I've been using it for a year and still no regrets!

              What's wrong with Samsung. S4 is already great! Use the same phone with better waterproof and shockproof case. Expand the battery. Add wireless charge. Put on this phone some extra adventurous characteristic. Make the camera better, not downgraded to 8Mp. Or use the same! Why are you making this phone with Gorilla Glass 2 and why are you subtract thermometer & hygroscope? I mean we are the explorers and sporters so this is Galaxy Active!?

                              galaxy s4 active claims of waterproof or being able to use for underwater picturs are bunk. owned the phone for 24 hours, took one picture underwater. Phone filled with water, lens was blurry, phone died. Dried it out and it works again but it has issues. neither ATT or samsung will back the product. Warranty does not cover water damage. Other online forums show this is very common. Great idea, terrible product. Going to be a nightmare for samsung and ATT
