I dont get it why people are bashing the "plastic" backside of the samsung devices.
Its very simple: if you want to offer replacable battery, external sd card and the thin flipcovers you just cannot create non-removable backsides ore aluminum unicasings. Polycarbonate is the best way.
That way samsung offers extremely versatile phones. Period.

Kinda Find it weird that people go on bashing this phone for not having FM radio although NO ONE has ever thought that this review unit was running on pre realese software.Even gsm arena forgot to mention this -_-...

I'm awaiting this monster. With an Octa processor its going initiate a revolution in the mobile phone category. Cant wait to download One Browser to it and download HD videos and high quality music on it. It misses the water proof feature which could have made it the best phone ever made. Still a lot of opportunity in the market. Wish to buy it soon. ;)

Hats off to Samsung once again. They definitely have another winner here and the other flagships of other brands will be eclipsed by the superlative S4.
I don't really mind the plastic looks of it cos more often than not, I'd use some casing with it. After all, its what in the phone that really counts and amoled screens are just unbeatable.
Can't wait for it to come out so that I can ditch my Xperia ZL for this monster of a phone !

Can someone Explain what the numbers in the Sunlight legibility test means , is it based on the higher the better or what ? and if so why the LG Optimus 4X which has a score of 1.691:1 in sunlight can be more visable in sunlight than the Galaxy S3 which have much higher score which is 3.419:1
