Samsung could ship 100 million s4 does not mean they have sold that many..I have not seen anyone using an S4 were I live..This is unusual because last year folk had S3 before me due to them on contract but this year not seen ONE S4 on the street.Even I have not bought one and I always have latest smartfone..

I am bored of full touchscreen give us some bloody design its just like walking into a TV shop now is a fone shop its just a wall of screens.At least give us a S/E p900 type device..Its dead easy for manufacturers to make a phone all they have to do is choose a screen.Everytime I see gsmarena announce a new fone I laugh its just another boring miserable slab the same as the last boring miserable slab,

    Philip, 21 Jun 2013I really hate samsung galaxy s4....from s1 to s2 to s3 and ... morenow thats what i call a height of stupidity... how on earth S1 n S2 look-a-like S3 n S4?? by that logic all four phones look same?? samsung produces one of the slimmest phones...i admit S4 n S3 have 90% same look but iphone 4,4s n 5 have 99% of same look... i also know galaxy's looks are not that great but they r much compact n better than so called premium aluminium phones n doesnt need any cover for protection... use it rough n still tough...

      So silly. I have the normal S4 and a 1.9ghz quad 600 is perfectly fine. I'm not bothered about not having the 2.3ghz quad.. why would I? Oh and the smaller components orders by Samsung?!..They have already made 22.2 million of them and another 6.5 million for July. HARDLY NOT SELLING WELL. By the end of this year the GALAXY S4 (along with its mini,activ+zoom variations) will have officially become the biggest selling Android phone EVER overtaking the 50m+ sakes sales of the S3!

              It's a whole of speculation to begin with,and considering it managed 10 million units in it's 1st month,it's sales are great,better than any other Android AND WP manufacturer right now,don't let your hatred for Samsung screw up your logic.

                        You should allow us to swap our s4 to the new one. If only we have known this before, we should've waited for it to come. It sucks. Send me an email if your paying attention to my concern.

                          I don't like those new features S4 had. For me it's kinda "OA". Why not improve their laggy UI and better memory management.

                          On iOS 512MB of RAM is enough but on Android 512MB or even 1GB of RAM still lags your phone and take note Droid phones has better and way higher specs that iPhones but why the heck S4 lags? If Apple produce a phone with similar spec of S4 I think I can say that "iOS is the most advance and few years ahead of other mobile OS".

This is smartphone and not PC gaming.people using smartphones for talk,chat,surfing internet,take a pic,and for show off, so for the people out there, if your purpose is gaming on smartphone! Then you bakaa! Or stupid! Play games on PC,Laptop,Tablet,and Console! Not Smartphones!!!! The best smartphones industry is Nokia! Nokia + Lumia + Windows Phone = Perfect Combination!

                                AnonD-137610, 21 Jun 2013Samsung Galaxy S4 is one of the best smartphones right now.... moreIf you're waiting for the market to settle down and wait for new devices you're never going to buy one . Sure new devices with better specs are always on the way , but there should be a longer time frame between high end devices from the same company like that between Samsung's own galaxy s device and note device .
                                But releasing another high end within two months while the current one is selling well is kind of...........

                                  That's why I like Apple. They upgrade their products step by step unlike Samsung they put almost all new technologies on their current flagship and what new feature(s) would you expect ob S5? What else would they add on it to differ from previous gen?

                                      Finally Samsungs greed and misguided release schedule has caught up with them.

                                      People who were waiting months for the S4 were expecting the fastest phone out there, and they got it. For Samsung to release a new improved version just a couple of months later is a slap in the face for geeks.

                                      They are so eager to release a phone as often as possible. It's to flood the market and make them the leader like Nokia was, except Nokia innovated more and tried different designs.

                                        S800 has more advantages over S600, beside better 28nm process which enabled speeds up to 2.3 Ghz. Has an integrated modem, which is surely better and more power efficient then the overheating crap in GS4.

                                        Just as a reminder, S600 doesn't have an integrated modem.

                                        So, yeah , when I bought the S4 I considered if is worthy to wait for N3, a product half a year away. If I knew that in one month I could buy something better you can bet that I would have waited.

                                        Will be nice now from Samsung to offer a discount to the early adopters ...
