Excellent battery life
Impressive screen
Outstanding camera
First looks are deceiving
It is not till one feels this device in the hand and you have switched on the display that one starts to get the impression that this device is a tad different. Then the speed kicks in suddenly you realise that you are the owner
Stunning screen
Superfast processor
Great camera
The Samsung Galaxy S4 has Android 4.2.2

TouchWiz
Weird button layout
Some performance issues
Too many gimmicks
UI can be overwhelming
Slippery
Plastic build
The biggest issue I had with this device was the battery which chewed through power when I had several apps running. Properly managed this issue can be controlled and when you are travelling and don't have access to a desktop top up make sure that you are
Feels cheaper than similarpriced phones
'Innovation' makes things too complex
Slight UI issues
Its screen is dimmer than competitors'
Its plastic design gives it a cheaper look than its rivals
And we found the Galaxy S4's power button turned on at undesirable times. Not all camera modes work as promised

Some handy features like “Air View” and bountiful “Camera” modes for great pictures every time, Maintains a good size that fits nicely in your hands, even with a 5″ screen, Cheaper than the HTC One (with very attractive telco plans / outright purchase)
Buggy phone with some features, functions and app not working the way its supposed to, Way too many features that tends to be buried and hard to find; also making it bloated and slows down the phone, Plastic!
