                  i find soo many features on the touchwiz alot more usefull than stock, stock is just to plain and simple for me, especially the camera features i prefer samsung in the camera department.

                                    It is officially the Nexus S4. And for all of those complaining for the 8Gigs of left storage, I believe this will be the answer, of course with the expense of all the features of the real S4, such as Airview, Multiwindow multitasking and air gestures. That's why it's $100 cheaper.

                                      Now ppl will know the the difference.. When the samsung goodies will no longer be available for the same handset for some what the same price..
                                      No extra camera features,
                                      no toggles in notifications,
                                      none of the smart features and gestures etc...
                                      I know now ppl after buying the stock version of s4 will root their phone and try installing samsung's s4 version of android.. Mark my words..
