Home button, thinner, more rounded, more optional functions/features, better display, and great button placement on sides. The ergonomics are top notch.

              Anyone can make a metal case phone nowadays. The question is this: do we need one?

              I say no, because metal scratch like crazy - I love the plastic leather look back cover of my Note 3 - no fingerprints, no scratches, it does not slide on surfaces - I cannot imagine any better.

              And yeah the physical home button is a must - dont ever take it out samsung.

                LOL

                Don't you realize that next year "design on the front", will be nothing, but display?
                The Apple's helpless propaganda, turned you in zombies with this "design" BS. Because Apple have nothing else to offer anymore, this "design"BS become huge BS.
                By the way latest LG g2 is just copy of of Galaxy, The sealed tin-can HTC One brick, nobody buys. SONY's "great" sealed glass design is killing SONY too.

                  Same tired old design on the front.

                  As old and tired as the iphone.

                  The phonese with the best looking design (and best feel in your hands) right now are the HTC Butterfly-S, LG G2, Blackberry Z30 and HTC One.

                      Don't let be brainwashed from the Apple propaganda. HTC did it with HTC One , and they are dead now.
                      See the sale of the sealed Android phones, and compare them with Samsung high-end phones sale.
                      Home button is great thing. Onscreen buttons are stupid waste of screen space.
                      You give example with other OEM , that omit the home button? LOL Where they are now??

                        Looks alright but its a shed load of money, for that kind of bank I'd want something better than alright, I think if you were to put Samsung top spec internals into a well styled brilliantly put together case it'd be worth the asking price but since the s3 Samsung's designs have been awful, HTC Sony and Nokia all look better and the nexus 4 I thought was a good looking bit of tech too, come on samsung make something aesthetically pleasing as well as functional. (With a huge battery so it lasts a good 3 days of heavy usage)

All of their phones, even this new "classy" one, just end up looking cheap and plain. I agree, the only company to really get design right in the Android space is Sony, unless you count Google. I like the way they're going with the Nexus 5 and 2013 Nexus 7.

                          By the way, Samsung, PLEASE drop the physical home button. It looks awful, and everyone else dropped it over a year ago.

Now back in the day, there was design, before Apple introduced the iPhone.

                                      Samsung are just no decent designers. All of their phones are missing something. Sony & Apple create the best designs; Nokia's not too bad actually, although the latest Lumias just look to geeky.
