[Galaxy S 4 General] procol:
I just bought a Korean variant Galaxy S4, KT's SHV-E300K(32GB). As far as I know, this is somewhat rare variant because it's an Exynos-powered S4 with LTE support.

With 2-year contract, I just picked it up without paying any money at the shop. The device costs me 899,000 Won actually and it's approximately $809.55 as of today. Monthly bill from KT will be about $72+ for 30 months, I guess. The guy gave me toilet paper rolls, lol. It's official KT promotion merchandise. Also he promised the shop will provide 3rd party cover/case and the protective film when they get those accessories in stock.

It's pity that I can't test its LTE capability at the moment. Being Saturday, I couldn't activate my new S4 right away. The KT rep said my new S4 will be activated at 10AM in the morning, next Monday. For the weekend till Monday morning, my official phone would be my old iPhone 4.

Cause this is the 1st time for me to use Android device, I'm frankly in panic now. iOS and Android(maybe Touchwiz) are too much different. I think I will have a hard time to get myself accustomed to this Android device.

The device itself is pretty nice. It's so much lighter and thinner compared to my old iPhone 4. The display is just incredible. I have seen lots of S3 and Note 2 around but this phone's screen was just beyond my expectation.

I had purchased Samsung 64GB microSD card(SDXC Pro class 10) before I bought the phone. The 1st work I did was copying iTunes music library from my MBP to the microSD card. It took about 30+ GB already. What I figured out is Apple's bundle earbuds I bought after the launch of iPhone 5 is not fully compatible with S4. Though stop/play button works, volume control button doesn't.

Antutu score was 29108 at my 1st try. Oddly, every time I repeat the test the score keeps going down. I don't know why. Because this is a Korean variant, it has DMB antenna allowing me to watch some TV channels as well as audio-only channel like radios for free.

If you have any question, feel free to ask. Though I'm a newbie to Android.

(I don't know why I can't upload images. Maybe I'm too newbie to upload images, lol. I put some images on picture board of Korean site I frequent and used the hot links.)
