I love the size, clarity and detail of the screen, it really does seem to fill the front completely with eye searing colours and very deep blacks. Superb viewing angles too. The whites, however, are not so white!

I bought this after lot of brain storming. Wanted to buy the HTC one or the Sony Xperia Z, simply because I thought Samsung mobile have a bad build quality. Checked the Xperia Z and was it disappointing, screen is good but not up to the mark, sharp edges and some small niggles.

The display screen is 5 inch with 1080 x 1920 HD resolutions. So watching any videos, images, accessing apps, or playing game is really enjoyable.

At the end of it all, the S4 gives you better internal hardware (by a decent margin) which helps power an improved, ultra sensitive, higher resolution display and a slightly better camera.

Who has come up with the figure of speech that it's lonely at the top, anyway? There are numerous promising high-end smartphones , and not all of them are made by Apple or Samsung. Now, the Galaxy S4 has to fend off the HTC One , the Nokia Lumia 920 and the Sony Xperia Z .

Best phone.

Android is in a strange place right now. Taken as a whole, it dominates the smartphone market. But as Apple CEO Tim Cook couldn't help but point out earlier this month , the majority of those devices are running a version of the operating system created in 2010.

As the flagship in Samsung's Galaxy smartphone lineup, the S4 is a leader in its bracket. With a 5-inch 1080p display, a 13-megapixel camera and a powerful Snapdragon chipset, the phone has the features and power to handle most anything mobile device users might ask for.

Upon first impression the Samsung Galaxy S4 was all I wanted out of a Smartphone. I was struck by how vivid the colors on the screen were and by how the phone seemed to fit perfectly in my hand ( the Galaxy S2 and S3 were a bit too big for my hands to hold).

Technolically advanced phone.
