You've obviously seen watchdog, but not my reply on the other thread! There is no lack of internal memory issue for me! Over 100 apps on my phone and starting to put music on. Plenty of space for what I use MY phone for! I'll be giving it 6 months then print the latest build on it from XDA and all the bloatware will disappear... Now, what's the problem with internal memory again????

Having seen the watchdog piece and having owned am S4 since the release date I must admit that I expected plenty of bloatware! I just don't let it bother me! Music and pics on external leaves plenty of space for apps in my opinion. Phil Long, the guy on there, seemed like a whiney chump to me! (But that is MY opinion!)

Okey-dokey.....well, 2 weeks in and what can I say? What do you want to know? Is it fast? Yes! Runs beautifully, whatever you're doing. Does it work as an away from desk instrument? I think so. With Remote RDP, I can jump onto any machine and it looks and works well. Does it feel like a premium phone? To be honest, I'm really not sure what that means anymore! By premium, I think people mean does it feel like an iPhone. Well, NO...but that's not the point. Premium is more to do with the whole and the screen, expandable memory, battery changing ability is more important to me than whether the back is made of aluminium or glass! (Or, indeed, polycarbonate!) All reviews are subjective and only one persons view. They can give direction, but you should never take anything as gospel until you've had a play yourself! I've seen the HTC One as well, and that is very nice....apart from the Sync manager problems...but that's a different story!

I STILL don't get this??? Surely, that's like walking up to a group of people and saying "I don't care about whatever it is you're talking about....and I want you to know that!" Anyway...good riddance to Fergie. Always came across as a nasty piece of work. Banned the BBC because they exposed his son in a Panorama programme.

Right...so I've had it for a week.... And I have to say....I love it!! I have used the eye-tracky-turny-pagey thing, and think it's a little over rated, but the phone really is good overall.... Now off to meet my bro and see his HTC One... Let the battle of the Superphones commence!

Ahhhhh... Phineas and Ferb... Quality cartoons!

Well, I'd dispute that! I love my S4 already...but then coming from an original S, it was bound to be a big step up. Let's just agree that different people like different phones. Some will like iPhones, some HTC and some Samsung. Some might even like Nokia!!(I very nearly went Windows phone with the 920!) I'm kinda fed up with all this fanboism!

Had never realised you could do this...So mucho respect for that tip! Thanks @LosOjos

Shurely shome mishtake? GoW is a 3rd person shooter? Anyhooooo....Have to say that I much prefer the PC to xbox. MY fps experience goes back to BF1942, MoH etc, and to be honest, I prefer the graphical capabilities of a PC over a console any day of the week! (Making my bid for #1 in the Wanted List!!)

Not whilst they talk about "always-on" needed for gaming. This is a big no-no for me!

Well, I have hd it for about 20 mins.... Coming from the Galaxy S....This is a beautiful phone! Also, have to say that Sim Swap on O2 is incredibly fast!

It's supposed to be delivered from O2 by UKMail. I have their webpage on constant F5...and it's showing "Out For Delivery"..... Soon, Mango.....Soon.....Patience!!!

On this point.... When I made my upgrade call, the O2 guy tried to tell me that I would be getting the Octa-core model. I did explain that only the quads were coming to Blighty, but he seemed oblivious to this point! I AM expecting a quad core, so if he IS right, I'll be amazed!! EDIT: And I'm getting a bit antsy now.....Halfway through the delivery slot....No phone yet....

So.....Mine is due to arrive between 12.30 and 16.30.... What time are you due to get yours??? Post here when it arrives, and we can start discussing how brilliant/rubbish it is!!

Indeed....whereas Samsung have NEVER been involved in ANY of that patent-bending business.....

Ok...that's a fair point....up until about a year ago, when Kies became a lot easier to use! Especially across the wi-fi... Therefore, I have shot down your last point Now, unless you're going to be "sodcasting", I think it's called (see how old I am??) then there's really no real need for BOOMSOUND! (However, if you ARE sodcasting, then I agree....you're one up on us Sammy fans!!!) P.S. If you ARE still reading my posts, please bear in mind that I AM only joking! I'm not saying anyone is better than anyone else, so we can all put our boxing gloves away and just get on!!!

I was just casting a line to see which fish would bite! I didn't expect such a splash in the water LOL!!!

I refer you to the sentence in brackets

Evolve? EVOLVE???? You EXPECT HTC users to evolve? Whoa there....that's a mighty big assumption!! That's like saying "One day, all HTCs will have the capability to accept an SD card!" or "One day, you'll be able to change the battery on your HTC"!!! (That is, of course, a joke at the expense of HTC users and is in no way meant to offend....really......honestly.....It's just a joke!)

I'm pretty sure that that's only a problem with SOME high-end phones....Not Samsungs!!

No....This is what happens in ANTICIPATION of receiving your S4.... (Tomorrow...sometime between 12.30-16.30)

My bruv is getting one of those.... But the inability to get an SD card in there....or swap batteries is a handicap for me! (And if you think I'm doing ALL of that backwards, you've another thing coming!!!)

ho, yrros, I t'ndid esilaer ew erew gniod sgniht sdrawkcab!

Yep.... Mine is being delivered to my work!

Have you considered the Samsung Galaxy Ace? These are ok little phones and would probably do the job you want for very little money. There would be plenty of phones for you to choose from.....Have you tried somewhere like CEX? CeX (UK) Buy & Sell Games, Phones, DVDs, Blu-ray, Electronics, Computing, Vision & CDs
