Samsung S4 is crap from the word go

Starting with its plastic cheap cover...no innovation at all compared to its previous.

Quad Core proccessor for what?? Is it to be operated in spaceships \rockets??

Battery is pathetic,

Other phones has flash,HTML5,HDMI and many other superb features

Compared to the Sony xperia z ,it scores very lowly

Really?

Those are comparison of specs not of usage. Maybe at least use reviews to compare.

I agree but with the same OS how much more difference can there be in performance if its not based on specs.

Just like you cannot use CNET online reviews to decide which laptop,tablet or phone to buy,never rely on gsm arena site to gauge on which is better

Read their terms and conditions to understand more..

Galaxy S4 is a joke amidst all the hype.

Gsm arena comparisions are based on specifications only and not usage ,or performance.

Specs and performance are two different things, Nokia had the N95 bin with so many features but its performance was pathetic to say the least..

Currently using the BlackBerry z10 (but do I say?!?) used the iphone4s before that and the s3. Personally, blackberry have hit a home run with this device, IMHO, its the best I have used. IOS feels tired, android, I'm not sooo comfortable using in terms of security checking account online etc.... . used the z10 since Feb 8 and so far, so good

@Faa when you get to use the Quadcore processor... you will wonder how you managed all this time. not too sure about NFC but that said it might catch on but it would not be the reason to uy the S4, the normal plastic card will prob have more penetration than NFC enabled phones...Battery life will always be an issue with these phones so no real comparison there.

Still would not but the Samsung but would gor for the hTC anytime.
