It is pointless here to perform "disadvantages" for normal S4 ... for me simply the better Phone! 8MP instead 13 ... sufficient thickness to make quick 'nen Snapshot ... quality photos shoots still my 10MP DSLR Canon 40D or as alternative Pocket camera my Sony RX-100! Well, my "Photo Fun" was also considerably more expensive to buy.
LCD instead of AMOLED is here for me a second reason, because only in outdoor use ablebsar better! Through full HD anyway enormously sharp and without direct comparison the crispness of the colors is relatively eh!
Las here through Brackets - TIP: Mumbi supplies from 16:08. tailored to small money Bicycle and car holders - what the heart wants more?
Why Samsung despite "plastic outfit" prefer? First creaks something neither the S2 even the S4 Active, when the lid is closed properly! Second, in his shirt pocket not like a menhir lying (all-aluminum and glass backs to me go to hell). And thirdly, the battery cover itself - that it is possible without problems easy to swap a battery is repeatedly to choose one of my main motivations a Samsung! My S2 for about 2 years with new battery 1900 mA equipped für'n few euros fuffzig ... greetings to all HTC, Apple and LG fanatics! As long as Samsung maintains this battery Strathegie, for me there is no alternative! A factory, expensive battery replacement is an absolute "No Go"!
Waterproof and dustproof in a high-end smart phone works very well with me - at least the sheltered interior electronics is crucial! As described in the instructions, you should include the relevant cover correctly! Anyone who can read, has the advantage.
Among the technical features I say nothing except the original S4 virtually equal. You can read everywhere. For me, just the best phone, which is z. Z. available on the market. Strong buy recommendation!
PS: My S2 Oldie is running the way without any problems with a micro SD SanDisk Ultra 64GB! Where else do you get so much memory? For the S4-part 64GB Extreme ordered ...
PS 2: Because I also read: Underwater at photos with the volume button hardware can accommodate! Logically that here "touch" can not work!
PS 3: The part is available for people who can not wait, currently the "red giant" for the same price! Wg. Any defects, which I have not, I recommend buying online due to better return opportunity. In CHIP Description falsely described with 8GB ... of course, the phone has 16GB of internal memory!
PS-4: After virtually 2 weeks: rain hard it is all - it does not just aware of diving underwater ... While working with short test in the bathtub, but no underwater housing may possibly be risky - for me is not necessarily relevant , Did the phone today swept by mistake from the kitchen table on the tile floor - it has certainly survived without any damage - fall test passed without hesitation! Robust so it is already.
PS-5: Now, after 3 weeks SanDisk Extreme 64GB Micro-SD runs perfectly and very fast - super Full HD recording and loads of space for all movies in Full HD, the really great at the full HD resolution of the display look ! Of course, everything is totally liquid and no stuttering recognizable.
