    To all no one is forcing anybody to buy a high end phone. If you don't like 64 bit CPU and 4 gig of ran so be it stay with your 2005 smart phone. Technologies are moving forward and all of you are drag.

          Like having 64bit on 1gb ram.
          Put logic behind the whole "following the 64bit" claim
          How differently the oses work and what they offer
          Technology advancement and what more memory, in a smaller size, that runs faster, and uses less energy means.

            AnonD-19153, 30 Dec 2013Great that's a good job by Samsung I hope they come up wi... morewierd ... all android fanboy care about lots of core and ram on their device ... and bash apple cause gimmick using 64 bit ... why now android fanboy care so much to have 64 bit ??? why not asking another lot of core ???

                Anonymous, 30 Dec 2013I agree that all the advancements are welcome and they are ... moreActually, Li-po batteries do NOT offer higher charge density. Lithium ion stores more energy per unit volume, as WELL as has better longevity. Li-po does have an advantage in being easily built into odd shapes, though.

                      With how backwards you have everything I highly suggest you spend a good while researching before coming back if you want to be taken seriously.

                        [deleted post]I would say WP actually runs a little smoother than IOS.
                        All three run very well though.

                        No system have apps that work flawlessly. You thinking that it's the smoothest and it runs apps flawlessly?? Great I'm dealing with another blind fanboy with no relevant knowledge at all.

                          Anonymous, 30 Dec 2013Iphones and Ioads have toshiba vRAMThey use Samsung ram and memory chips. As well as use Samsung to construct their SoC.
                          Which the past couple generations have been more unique designs...But prior where modified versions of Samsung's own design.
                          Try again?

Doesnt it run smooth... moreIos is smooth because it only allows few apps to work at the same time preventing the cpu to stressed out and BTW ios is not the smoothest because how can you called it smooth if it can't do real multitasking?

                              oishiboy, 30 Dec 2013to be able to fully utilize 4GB of ram, you need to have a ... moreNo, you don't. This is not 32bit windows. Linux (and thus android) can directly handle well more than 4 Gb of RAM in its 32bit version.

                              Also you don't need 64 bit chip. ARM has 40bit PAE, that means that it can directly handle up to 1Tb of RAM.

Others have well the majority has all normal RAM abd very few have DDR2.. Even flagships like GS4 ,Htc One ,Xperia Z have standart Ram. Does this make them "inferior" or bad . No totally no they are awesome great perforners on paper and on usage.

As well as do not cost much more...As well as Samsung being leaders in memory/chip production, yet barely offer 64GB when they could make higher and use dual chip set up. Even make 32Gb or 64gb Model as base or only and offer in the competitive price bracket.
