Glorified worthless piece of cheap plastic blended with endangered OS which is getting fragmentation It is nothing but insipid and why Samsung is not uttering a word of Android and masking it with new app that runs on it - Heavier, fatter, less refined than iPhone Series in all aspect! - Rolling out a new handset that thinner by 8% and less thicker by 2% or its previous model – SG3 doesn’t call in for appraisal - Why trying to distract consumer away from Android with their app and service when the entire handset’s operational functionally is with Anroid - Mobile handset must be lighter, portable and easy to navigate with minimum manipulation of fingers, gestures and easily fit inside a pocket Whereas Samsung always fancy in innovating larger screen size Then why don’t they bring in 21” screen size if that will satisfy them - Feel like laughing when you see people holding and struggling with oversized Phablet Their entire one side of their face is covered with it - Fe-JMohan -Cochin

Worthless plastic crap againwd never be able to touch the likes of iPhone leave alone iPhone 5-Siddharth -Mumbai

Today S4 will have more in all aspects than what my first laptop in 1998 had It had hardly 256K ram, 40 or 80 MB of HDD, and today almost all the smartphones are beating that out Hence these smartphones are more of COMMUNICATORS than a mere mobile phone Apple is still very easy to work upon than Samsung or Blackberry, but still these are faster and bigger than apple Making choices is becoming harder-Sunjeev -Delhi
