Samsung Galaxy S4 - Pre-Order Today
« on: March 28, 2013, 10:06:36 am »
The Samsung Galaxy S4 is available for pre-order today.
Is anyone ordering? I think I will.
I'm on vodafone at the moment but the signal where i work in London (city) is beyond abysmal so will be moving from them!

Better or worse than the others?

(I'm assuming worse)

yes mate, the 8 core one isnt coming here - but neither is it going to the US.  I believe the 8 core isnt compatible with 4g.

Quad core at 1.9ghz is faster than the s3 but some margin allegedly.

Proof is in the pudding i guess!

I want one, but I'm tempted to buy a used S3 first to see if I get on with it (after a couple of years on HTC)

£529 at unlocked mobiles.com but I'm not sure about the retailer, first I have heard of them. Good reviews on trust pilot. Might give it a spin.....

I read it was simply because they couldnt produce enough 8cores, so instead of delaying the phone, they went with the old chip.
This was the kick in the nuts for me.. Yes i know i dont need 8 cores or the phone wont use them all together anyway, but im a techie.. They say it will come later on...

I feel i want to get my hands on one before ordering..

not too amazed at the camera on that, reviews say it lacks the clarity

I personally think the camera look more life like but maybe lack colour depth. The 1080p video looks good. Personally just the look and feel of the aluminium unibody is tempting me.

The camera should do much better in low light too due to there being less pixels making them bigger.
