    AnonD-167223, 29 Aug 2013Just search "samsung s4 broke",open the first link.....Thanks i found the link you was trying to show me. I cannot speak for this guy but i have never had a problem with my s4 and i have had mine in my back pocket. I find it a bit odd how it would simply break in a guys front pocket when there is a lot less resistance and force in someones back pocket. Or maybe im just oucky

          Samsung have been under pressure using Plastic Bodies but i do not seem Why?there phones are light,cheaper repairs an removable batteries,Metal might look a little better,but they are easily scratchable an make the phone alot Heavier,an no removable batteries,so Samsung will then get critised for not keeping removable batteries on there phones,polycarbonate might be the Alternative to use,so hope also they do not remove the memory card slots on the new type of phones,as thats why one reason why?Nokia phones are not as popular as Samsungs an other Android phones

                samsung uses plastic u critisize, uses metal u cuss and swear that its copying. if you dont critisize, you say copy cat and all sort of childish stuff. to those who say s3 design is ugly, your hearts have been blocked. and please tell me what you will change if u had to run samsung for a year. always be truthful to yourself. as the geeks you all are i wonder why your so interested in design instead of usability, size, performance, etc. and to those who hate removable battery and sd card slot, u will call yourself a liar to say u never thought it was better to have one.isnt that added flexibility... anyways buy wat suits you and when i buy or say mine dont complain. cuz u cant take the freedom choice from me or anyone else not even yourself

                      Good move Samsung! Metal and Glass is important for that premium feel. I just hope they can keep the weight down...
