Denzo, 25 Apr 2013Airplanes have polycarbonate because they need to be light ... moreSo are phones. You wouldn't want a phone that is 30g heavier just because you fancy feeling some metal in your hand. Also they are getting hotter under stress because of heat conduction, are bigger, thicker and more prone to damage on impact. That's why there are not so many metal phones, because you sacrifice everything just because of some silly prejudice that it's more solid that you probably learned while playing with metal toys and cheap chinese plastic ones when you were a kid. Polycarbonate on phones reminds you of that cheap plastic because it looks similar, but in fact it's simply a better material for phones and phone companies are not using it just because they fancy so for no reason whatsoever. They just have their facts straight. And it's not because of costs as well - 10$ on material costs wouldn't make a difference on a 500$+ phone if it was a better choice.
I'm a tech fan. Also, last I checked most of the metal phones are basically running Android.

Airlines don't want to be spending double the money on flying costs. Please. What a stupid thing to say. Obviously an android fan.

I honestly do not understand some persons on this site. Any other manufacture other than Samsung that is delayed because of the high demand, praises and glory would have been given, but because it is Samsung, they are liars. If memory serves correct, Samsung has never in the past lied and delayed shipments to make "hype"
I say congrats to Sammy. and also, Good luck to the other manufactures and hope that their devices meets their set margin of sales

Look, I agree that there's noth... moreMetal does add some visual candy for some people but they don't add protection. Quite the opposite. They are harder and make the whole phone heavier, thus making impacts potentially more deadly.
It's easier to make thin and durable polycarbonate than metal.
This is also the reason why critical airplane parts are made of polycarbonate and not metals.

It was pretty hard to get an sgs3 in the 1st week after launch if you haven't preordered. The same or even worst is gonna happen with sgs4 given the demand is much higher. So no surprises.

I don't like samsung designs either, but this "cheap plastic" thing is just annoying. I mean, almost every cellphone around the world is made of PLASTIC.
We use plastic every day, even freaking cars have plastic parts.
So just drop it with "cheap plastic" thing, it's boring, lame and plain stupid kind of response.

Anonymous, 25 Apr 2013uk has been pushed back aswellit has not been pushed back mate, but there is a shortage of initial stocks, all stores where I live (Stirling)(6 stores) have sold out, but will be available from tomorrow, its basically a first come first served basis with those who pre-ordered getting priority. I had a call from my store telling me mine will be available to collect from 9am tomorrow morning.
