Samsung Galaxy S4

Mon May 20, 2013 1:26 pm

Just bought a S4, upgraded from Iphone 4s, being a long term apple fanboy this is going to take some getting used too!

Taken me ages to type this out, more typos than swansealad

Please keep us posted how you get on, as I'm thinking of making the same change in a month or so when my contract is up.

I was a full on appleite, my last being the 4S. I made the change 6 months back to the Samsung galaxy S3......now i wonder why i stayed with apple so long as the S3 is awesome, got the Tab 2 10.1 now to.

Apple are nothing new anymore. They are to restrictive.

Would you recommend it?

I'm just on an iPhone 4 sim only at the moment and not sure whether to wait for the "5S".

They were featured on Watchdog last week. The only thing wrong with the S4 is yhat the 16gb of storage on the phone only equates to 9gb because of its pre loaded software. This means less space for all of your apps. An extra SD card is ok for pics snd music but doesn't help with the apps. Apparently Samsung are trying to fix this, and the 32gb S4 is only available in the USA at the moment.

I got my S3 in January and love it.

That's interesting. I think I'll wait a couple of months.

I got the S3 a few weeks back, it's really good. Better than an Iphone in my opinion. Not sure of the differences between the S3 and S4, but I got my contract with Tesco and O2 with the S3 for £20 a month :ayatollah:

Whats is the s3 like for surfing the web, watching youtube etc?

Really good, haven't had any problems yet and everythin loads straight away. I've always used cheap pay as you go phones in the past so the S3 was a welcome sight. And with unlimited texts, 500MB web and 300 minutes for £20 a month can't go wrong

Is 500mb web down load enough for a month though?

Im on my phone all the time and dont even come close. Just dont download films on 3g use WIFI.

Im pretty sure 500mb is about 276,000 pages of internet surfing.

I used to use 500 every month just by browsing the internet in breaks at work.

Maybe Orange were ripping me off...

Yeh 500mb is plenty, well for me it is. When you're in your house connect your phone to your internet, that way it doesn't count towards your internet usage on your phone bill
