Your morality to always wait some time before buying a phone just launched is a never ending waiting because there will always be new and better phone to come.
Morality: Buy now what your heart desires or wait forever.
Unless you just are trolling or anti-Samsung like most of the basher here.

The problem being that i am feeling a trend where the S line is going downer and downer with each iteration...
I am a Samsung Lover but i see the brand following the Nokia history and getting lazy because thinking it rules the world

shubham yadav, 11 May 2014I know about high speed cards and I use a 64 gb Samsung UHS... moreWrong again!
UHS class 1 is only for large-size HD videos, not 4K.
(UHS Speed Class1 denotes a 10 MB/s minimum write speed)
For recording 4K videos use UHS class 3
(UHS Speed Class 3 denotes 30 MB/s minimum write speed)
No wonder you got problems with your S4.
You are not that smart enough so don't mislead users.

Tcool, 11 May 2014No, it depends on the speed of the SD card.
If your SD car... moreI know about high speed cards and I use a 64 gb Samsung UHS I card on my s4. The problem is not just copying in sd card, but also before that the processing and capture of 30 8mp photos per second. That's 240 megapixels per second. It sure takes up toll on processor. And then it moves to NAND and then to storage.
If your storage or sd card is slow it will cause further trouble and further heating. That's why Samsung put a cap or limit.
For a slight proof of what I said. Xperia z2 gets heated up even when storing in internal memory. So there are further issues other than the sd card.
In any case, don't use any card less than uhs I class or the ultra class so that even there is no trouble from storage side.
Have a nice day

I saw it in an Internet video and the free memory there was 9.99 GB. I also heard 9.99 gb elsewhere. So I think the unit I saw was a carrier version which had a carrier bloat.
Thanks for the info.
Have a nice day

If your SD card is slow, the phone is having a hard time, that is why it heats up. Use ultra high speed SD card for better pictures and videos.

AnonD-8044, 11 May 2014I only have 64GB because 128GB at Amazon says its 130GBP so... moreYou don't have a faulty unit. The limit is set by Samsung to prevent overheating as 4k videos take a lot of processing power. Just to give an idea. A 4k at 30 fps is equivalent to taking 30 number of 8 megapixel photos in a second. Plus moving them to nand and then to sd card can be too taxing on processor.
This issue is also on xperia z2 but in a very bad form. Z2 gets insanely hot and the camera app fails to perform due to overheating due to 4k video recording.
Atleast s5 Doesn't heat up that badly.
