[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylose:
The issues aren't that significant and they don't make the device unusable. Apart from these tolerable display issues, the device is amazing. Perfect audio quality, great battery life, thin and light.

iPhone 5 is also a great device. Yes, the display is small but it has great contrast and accurate colors. Just know that there will be things that you could easily do on Android but can't on iOS.

I didn't get a chance to use HTC One, so I can't comment on that one.

How you can't even use proper grammar and still feel the right to insult someone else's smartphone choice is beyond me.

Do you suffer from yellow tint on your S4 ? I do .... it's quite annoying
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4z:
No yellow tint on my phone. I guess I might be one of the lucky ones with a good screen :) whites are bright blacks are deep... I'm pretty happy with it.

I don't. And my display is very direct sunlight viewable. It does not take long using the 5" screen to spoil you, either. When I have to use any of our 4.7" screens now on the S3 or an Evo 4G LTE, they seem so small and inferior already!.3" doesn't sound like much difference, but it is to me. It's so cool they got the bigger screen in a smaller package. Hats off to Samsung! I can't imagine how old school a 4" screen would seem now.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squarejp:
I don't see why you have an issue with the smearing screen. It's sharp clear and the color saturation can be calibrated to look like LCD. Use Movie Mode in color setting result the most accurate color AMOLED.

The only let down to me is the stupid bloated un-deletable apps that takes up 6.8GB of my 16GB storage and forget about microSD support, you can't install apps to microSD.

well. my son 7 years old have iphonne 4,

my wife iphone 4s sold

now i phone 5. she has 1 iphone atm. j

the reason why she bought iphone. cause it make her look cool and rich. this is the only reason why 99% sheep buy iphone.

at least 10 out of 10 people i know. buy iphone cause it makes them look rich and cool

people i know who bought android phone. they know what phone they buy. they know what they can do with it. it's freedom. it's a choice.

iphone no freedom, no choice. i don't hate apple or iphone. it's like that.

you buy iphone. you were, are and will be dictate by apple.

like how to hold iphone to talk or you loose reception.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
There should be no comparisons with the iPhone 5. It runs a totally different OS. The camera on the iP5 puts to shame a lot of Android cameras even though it's an older product. The whole ecosystem is different it's like comparing apples and oranges.

The iP5 is still a great phone for the majority, simple and works. Android is a beast on another hand with many more features and handsets available to choose from.

Just choose whatever makes you happy. Have a play with them then decide what to buy.

Not everyone wants a device that they need to tinker etc. As consumers we have choices, we can all use our common sense when making these decisions.

4" screen is super cool to carry it around, place it in any pocket without having to worry much, every form factor has its own cons and pro, its a long debate with good points on either way

I have my n4 set at about 5% all the time indoors, in the 5 months I've had it I've turned it up for bright sun about 4 times temporarily.

I agree with you and suggest you wait a couple of weeks and see what Google say, if they don't say what you want perhaps look at the nexus 4.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmanxhmed:
I went to HyperStar (Display in Supter Store), Display looked beautiful, i seen smearing too but it was not bothering me, but upper portion of the screen was definitly hotter, while the lower was cooler even at the display?

Display looked beautiful but the touchwiz, the menu, the text even in the message App looked such a pain in my ass, i thought how people bear that, that they made S2 and S3 a success, why can't samsung make stock or something like sense is beyond me, yes we can change launcher, messaging app, keyboard to stock, but definitely heat and its a chance if your screen is OK or with Yellow or Pink tint, so its by luck this phone? will Samsung fail this time?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmanxhmed:
Display is cartoonish, no doubt good though, but touchWiz making it even more like cartoons, special settings menu
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmanxhmed:
How you compare your Nexus 4 with S4? what about screen quality and most important battery? does it last full day with heavy use? does it has battery near to iPhone5? what about over heating and thermal throttling with Nexus 4? i always wanted it but over heating problem was there too, have they settled it?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Screen is fine no issues. Battery lasts well, heavy usage varies from user to user,data used signal etc.

Custom kernels take care of heating and throttling.

Example battery life attached. 3 hour screen on time was with 3g. 5 hour with WiFi. Just some examples.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jejb:
You're really tying yourself up in knots here. It's easy to change fonts and change most of the things you don't like. I've been on Sense for years and find TW a breath of fresh air. Either you like the AMOLED screens or you don't. Ford vs Chevy. If the pluses don't outweigh whatever you imagine as negatives, hold off or buy something else. I took the leap and am quite happy with it, FWIW.

EDIT: The heat issue I've felt on the back of the phone, especially the first few days when it was on almost constantly. But it was never excessive. And all of my smartphones have put out some heat when doing things like Navigating.

Got my S4 the day it came out.. I havent seen any screen issues
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortie1987:
The 'smearing' issue is, as others have said, a mountain out of a molehill. It's pretty pathetic that it's even been brought up to be honest, I didn't even notice it on my phone until I went specifically looking for it after seeing the thread on here!

I've had mine since launch, and have had no problems getting through the day regardless of usage, and haven't had any heat issues either?

The S4 does have disadvantages, such as the lack of space available on the S4, but that will get fixed by the devs on here eventually. I would love to get rid of the vast majority or the bloatware that came on the phone, but I personally LOVE airview. Very handy with my work email and calendar. Most of the other air gesture stuff could go for me though...

Just all my opinion of course!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmanxhmed:
Smearing issue is not a problem, but pink or red tint is a problem and some screens have massive problem like in another threat a guy has yellow tint on white and his girlfriend has no tint, so some screens are defective, so you basically have to pray if your screen is fine, Nokia also had such lack of quality control, we also seen some defective screens on N4 at start on youtube reviews.

My dear i want to buy a phone to use? not to consume my brain for finding custom ROMs in and out daily for Nexus 4 or any other Android? So you basically means you are bound to mess with ROMs if you have to use Android phone properly? dear a phone is a phone and some people need to use it as it is?

So for them you have either Lumias or iPhones you mean?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmanxhmed:
Thats what happens when you spend your time on features like air view and flipping pages by hand gestures instead of spending time that phones basic features should work flawlessly.

I say air view is waste of a feature because it will consume battery and it will confuse people, you can click gallery, see photos and hit back button?

So there is no working android now a days working fully well out of the box?

Yes UI is personal preference? but just according to me give salute to those who prefer TW over stock or sense UI.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortie1987:
I'd quite happily use my phone exactly as it came out of the box, for the 2 years I have it on contract. I just CHOOSE to root it or flash custom ROMs. I think to have the CHOICE to do as I wish with my own stuff. Isn't this the whole point?

I agree that severe tints are an issue, but luckily its one I (and MILLIONS of other S4 owners) haven't suffered from. You may be right that this is a hardware fault, but as some people have fixed this by flashing different firmwares, I doubt it.

I wouldn't ever recommend anyone buy a Lumia or an iPhone as I think both are terrible to use, but that's my opinion, and I'd not force it on anyone else. It's also my opinion that Nokia haven't made a phone worth having since the 3310...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jejb:
No offense intended, but if that confuses you, perhaps an iPhone is the best solution for you.

Of course there is. Again, you're reading way too much into these problem threads, IMO. I have not rooted mine and I'm sure that's true of the vast majority of S4 users at this point. It works great right out of the box. But the power of Android is that you CAN modify it to exactly fit your tastes, if you want to.

But if you dislike TW and don't want to root, this is probably not the phone you want. You can get Launcher's, but it's still TW under the launcher unless you load a custom ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidpod:
No Smartphone / Tablet / Laptop is perfect

For some it's human nature to be extra picky and criticize, or look for any little thing that they can find "wrong" with their new phone.

As an enthusiast of a variety of platforms, and products, I usually have several smartphones activated at any given time. Currently I'm using my new S4 for personal, my Note II for work, an iPhone 5, and a highly modified S3. Each of these has it's pros and cons.

There's only one reason I'm using an iPhone 5 on a limited basis, and that's because most of my non-tech family has iPhones, located all over the USA it's fun to use face time for calls, and Apple proprietary messaging.

But otherwise I never suggest this phone to others when they ask what kind of phone they should buy. iPhone 5's are highly overrated. In my opinion it's only as popular as it is because of Apples marketing expertise.

If I was going to limit myself to just one smartphone, it would be an Android phone, hands down, no hesitation.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conmeo:
androidpod. iphone 5 is a piece of ****. when you have a high quality build like htc one.

but to compare to galaxy s4. iphone 5 is a piece of ****. iphone 5 is not even as good as galaxy s3.. most people agreed with it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Those of you slating the iP5, you do know it runs a different OS. If it had Android then yes you can compare hardware. It runs a totally different OS and it runs well, it's a popular device and works well.

You can't really compare hardware, of course hardware on Android phones is superior but one thing you can't fault Apple with is optimisation, software is well optimised to the hardware something which Samsung are poor at simple as. And yes I've had all the galaxies bar the S4 so I know how they work.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
I just installed the new TomTom Traffic plug-in and was enthusiastic about the integration into TomTom. :D

On the road I was equally enthusiastic about the online performance. If ever there was an Argument for the MDA, this ist definitely it! Works seemlessly without hassle. :D

Now the bad news: :( The traffic information being dowloaded is very poor and incomplete (at leat for Germany) . It seems they are not (yet) updating their feed with up-to-date information. I only received several "long-term" obstructions, none of the "daily" jams.

So, in practise the Traffic Plug-In isn't really usefull (yet). We will have to wait until they get the feed up and running.

Maybe somebody in one of the other countries being covered can also share his experiences.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jpkeates:
UK Traffic information

The information for the UK is similarly not very useful.

I was advised of a jam I was already in, ten minutes after I joined it, and it had been there a while.

I recently was advised of a 32 minute delay ahead, and having chosen to navigate round it (which is a great feature!) met a colleague who had driven straight through without encountering the delay.

So my detour had cost ten minutes instead of saving 22.

In the UK, there is already a live road condition service called trafficmaster, which is good and which I already use.

Unfortunately, its not possible to enter a delay "point" on Tom Tom so that you then can get it to navigate round something you know is a problem. This means that a non-integrated solution isn't possible.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jpkeates:
Tom Tom Upgrade

I downloaded the latest Tom Tom update - which has some changes to the traffic module - just after my last post, and it has really improved the service.

I am getting about a third more incidents than before on each update, and it has found problems ahead more frequently also.

Maybe it was a launch problem.

I would change my vote if I could to a higher rating.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] griffog:
The latest Traffic Plug-In is 3.04T which has resolved a number of issues for GPRS users.

The quality of the data is still a problem but this is sourced from the TMC provider who in the UK is iTIS. Sadly TrafficMaster win't licence their data feed to 3rd party GPS Nav Providers so TMC is the only option :(

It's interesting to hear that users on the Continent have similar issues with the quality of the data, it will hopefully improve but it's still better than nothing!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
After having updated to the 3.04 version I must agree it is much better. Now we're finding on average 600+ incidents, not just 50.

But, though it is pretty complete on construction sites, it is still poor on up-to-date traffic jams. Comparing with the traffic news on radio, it's still prety poor - but getting there.

I guess they just have to sort out the providers.

So, as long as we're still in the evaluation period its OK. If its worth the money once we have to pay for it will depend on the quality of service then.
