Its so discouraging to new buyers and even current owners when you come on here and all you see is "I hate this" and "I hate that" and there's no one thread praising the new S4." I just wanted to make a thread showcasing people who ENJOY THEIR GALAXY S4! Between the huge screen on a small body, lightweight feel, wonderful camera, microSD, nicer 2600mah battery and all the other amenities, im thoroughly happy with my decision to purchase the S4 above any of the other devices.

Who else is happy with their powerhouse of a phone?

I love my Galaxy S 4, have been an Galaxy Fan since the S2 LTE and this is a great phone. I loved the S3 and this phone keep all the good elements from the S3 and puts them up-to-date and adds so much more. I think this phone feels much better in the hand than the S3, it feels a lot more premium. The battery live is better than the S3, the camera is AMAZING!!! I love the fact that they put scrollable mode tabs, the only thing that pisses me off is that we can toggle flash, we need to go in camera settings to do it. Thats kinda annoying. Beside that, the rest is great. Everything that goes wrong with this phone can be fixed by software so i'm not even stressing over that

By far my favorite phone yet. Everything just works, battery life is amazing, super fast and responsive. Plus the built in gestures are awesome, I use them all the time; they take a bit to get used to but I use them everywhere possible now! Thank god I have patience to wait until bootloader unlock is released!

after removing all the bloat, this phone is awesome! I'm getting an average of 4 hours screen time and hour of talk... or 5 hours screen time no talk. My SGS3, barely got 2 hours screen time...

Upgraded from an S2 and was thinking about the HTC One because of the build quality. So glad I decided on the S4. This thing is fast and beautiful. Can't put it down.

Best phone I've ever owned. Came from an iPhone 5. Blows it away! Smooth animations, beautiful camera, a lot of cool features (expandable notifications, air view, smart scroll), and the display is just gorgeous. :)

Upgraded from a iPhone 3G-S... so I'm definitely in paradise with this phone.

Screen is great, battery life is pretty good for what I use it for, I'm rarely below 40% at the end of the day if I'm on it a lot (for me). The best thing about this thing is the way it fits in my pocket. I've actually started to look for my phone thinking I lost it, only to find it in my pocket!

Came from the S3 and I will miss the developers. I think the screen is amazing. The air gestures and hover finger stuff puts it as what I would consider 2013 tech. In bone stock form I have been very impressed. Slight lag from time to time is not enough to be a deal breaker. The developers will fix is up. Battery life has been very impressive. My only dislikes are just cosmetic, white inbox in messaging, and white dialer. Lol.

    You know, I thought that was going to be the biggest gimmick of the phone, but WOW it works awesome. So nice to just browse on my photo, hit watch and the TV changes :)
