        advice, 19 Apr 2014the exynos is better for gaming,it can run games at higher frame rates. Gaming is not a problem. The main problem is some android became slower after some days. Just make me sure exynos version will not slow. And i also need 4G. Now tell me which one i should buy.

Just ... morethe slowness that some people might notice after a period of time is not related to the processor,it is related to the running apps and downloaded apps especially the incompatible ones ,in general every android phone need to be rebooted once daily to keep it running fast,if that was not enough u might need to back up and factory reset and clearing the cache .

          regarding the 4g, as someone answered the snapdragon is your choice.

                  Poor signal coverage contributes in draining the battery fast due to the phone's effort to connect to the network.

                          It is only to ease the unlocking of your phone rather than pressing those PIN codes or passwords.

                            Anonymous, 19 Apr 2014Another scrap finger print sensor that can easily fooled hahaha. Even PIN code or password can be fooled if somebody wants to.

                            So it doesn't matter.

You just need to do perfectly the movement each time you use it. I'm only using it for private mode since i don't like wasting time for unlocking my phone.

                              And for people saying it can be fooled, maybe, but generally you don't let your phone to someone who has your fingerprint ready in his pocket. So...
