I have had this phone for about 6 months now and personally, I hate it. I had been an iPhone user for many years but decided to switch because my batteries kept dying. BIGGEST REGRET EVER. This phone has caused more headaches than my iPhone ever did! Half of the time the camera decides not to work, the apps often freeze or shutdown and the phone damages extremely easily. None of my iPhones had ever cracked ,this phones screen has already completely shattered!! If anyone knows anyway I could get any sort of refund (not likely) I would love to know!

          Anonymous, 04 Jul 2014how long the baterry last?Normally, on my daily usage, surf net, Facebook, chatting apps, watch Youtube video,
          the phone battery life will drop to around 25 to 30% before 12am. Now, it can remain around 40 to 45%.

          Not some big improvement anyway.

                Gsmarena please edit S4 Active's OS specification.

                Android OS, v4.2.2 (Jelly Bean) upgradeable to v4.4.2 (Kitkat). This phone is already upgradeable to latest Kitkat OS.

                                Speaking of cons of Android Kitkat 4.4.2, my phone will auto restart in some occasion heavy usage, it happen when i ran thru Antutu benchmark.

                                Well, the white color notification actually is not my taste of liking, I like the previous color notification icon.

                                The web browser is improved, with new 3D look on multi web tab, and much faster.
                                The IR blaster Watch On apps is upgraded, with more brand support, even supporting air conditioner control.

                                Group play feature also is improved with now support video file group play.
                                Camera now with a new continous burst snap for 20 image, something that is available on original S4, but not on S4 active, still don't have dual shot feature though.

                                Battery life is improved.

                                      I have a Galaxy Note N8000 and it will be a waste if I upgrade it to Kitkat. Read a lot of negative comments about it. Tsk. Now the only thing that excites me is having my S4 Active a Kitkat upgrade. Looks like a lot of people are amazed by the upgrade. Just wondering when will it come to Philippines. Hmmm....
