I just think if Samsung, HTC or another Android running company were to release a phone which had even double the capacity of its rivals without compromising anything, it would be the one key USP which would totally destroy its rivals.
Then they'd put that technology into their other handsets. I just don't accept my Galaxy S3 as a games machine when I can only play a 3D game for an hour or two and the battery is completely drained. Whats the point ? that doesn't make it a mobile device.

Can't wait to get it, the roll out has really sped up this past week, saw many variants of this FW being uploaded at SamMobile for both I9500 and I9505.

Do you know what the camera firmware does? Is it just HDR video?
The update isn't out yet for generic UK. |

I don't see the point in releasing another variant of the S4 with just another minor upgrade in CPU speed. Its not like you'd notice the difference if you owned either phone.
Im all for upgrading specs year on year, but every couple of months ? its not worth it !

Lol, that's Samsung for you. They've been doing this for a while, remember how many variants the Galaxy S2 had?
There was:
I9100 GS2 Exynos-International
I777 GS2 Exynos -US (AT&T)
I9100G GS2 TI OMAP -for some Asian markets
E120S GS2 HD LTE (with 4.6inch HD720P display) -S.Korea
I9210 GS2 LTE
I929 GS2 DUOS
Then there were the US Snapdragon GS2s:
I727 GS2 Skyrocket -US (AT&T)
I757 GS2 Skyrocket HD -US (AT&T)
D710 GS2 EPIC 4G Touch -US (Sprint)
And so on and so forth, ultimately you had quite literally a range of GS2s with varying screen sizes from 4.3inch WVGA to 4.65inch HD720P, with and without LTE, if anything they have narrowed down the amount of variants at this point, but it seems like that's exactly what they do, they make variants for almost every market and want to be on top of every new technology in that market. It's Samsung flex it's muscles as usual and money in the bank as each one of these variants carries many Samsung made parts, even with the Qualcomm based units which actually cost them less to make than the Exynos units.

I want the blue Galaxy S4 so bad.
In this case I don't care that much about the plastic feeling, which I have with my Note II.
Blue colour is just so sexy.
