What to check for when getting a new phone - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

So it looks like I'm getting a galaxy s4 soon. What are some of the issues that people are having with their phones that i should look for when i get my phone. I'm talking about hardware issues such as the colors on the screen, overheating etc.

I got a black S4 where the screen was just pure yellow, not even light yellow in a white background. But if tilted even 45 degrees you could see the actual color. So look into that

for style, the best one all around so far is probably the spigen neo hybrid.
for drop protection and moderate style, otterbox commuter beats all the competition.

Don't let the horror stories scare you. This is a great piece of hardware.
When the nexus came out I was so close to biting. But the stuff I read about it scared me off. Big mistake.

I agree, I've owned them all... 2 Commuters for the S3, and for the S4 2 Neo Hybrids, and Ultra Thin Air, and a Slim Armor... oh, and 4 or 5 screen protectors...

AN Apple fansite nonetheless.
Hope this turns out to be true. Ceramic chassis sounds really really nice and very industrial. Maybe they're going for the iPhone 4 look?
I hope they aren't trying to make it look like an iAnything. You think they would stay away from that especially in light of all Apple suing them for everything. Plus I'd love a unique awesome look!

Love exynos, but is this Samsung's first-generation of LTE?
I believe Samsung will be using a sister chip for the LTE, until they can perfect their own integrated solution.
They never did have their own solution - for radios they're using Infineon (now Intel) chips. The GS2 is XMM6260 or something like that, the next gen (not out yet, has LTE) is XMM7060.
Ceramic chassis? No thanks, I actually like plastic. It doesn't break or shatter and is extremely light. Also, I don't see a removable battery or external sd being done with that type of chassis.

Cermamic is incredibly strong and rigid in certain applications. It's used in racing components, as heat shield coatings, reinforments. It's even popular with thw aerospace industry. Very durable...If the S3 goes with a ceramic chasis, I'm sold.

This. Coming from an iPhone 4 makes me appreciate the plastic backing of our phones. Won't chip from the slightest drop like my iPhone did.
Well, I'm leery of 1st-Gen LTE chips. I will not be an early adopter with the sgs3... Especially since Sammy will launch the sgs3+ two weeks later with the "super LTE" chips :-(
More rumors stating the GS3 will be the first phone to run a true 1080p screen beating out even Apple with their Retina screen. Not that you can really tell a difference on such a small device that at most would be used 3 feet away from your face.

Specs are not credible so no need to wish over them
First gen LTE on Exynos is what will make me pass... HSPA is more than fast enough for me and I see many bugs with it (LTE)

This is true but i don't think these things get dropped much . Which even if it could withstand it, I just don't like the fact that most likely with the type of enclosure, it won't have a removable battery cover. Furthermore with the design behaviors currently leaning towards as few buttons and ports as possible, for that clean look, there most likely won't be and external sd card.
Although I'm just griping, I love Samsung phones, and I will most likely still get it if the temptation somehow pries me from my wonderful sgs2

About that replaceable plastic (Sammy) vs unibody (HTC) thing...

First of all I have to say, the Samsung Galaxy S3 looks veeeery good to me.
You want to know why?
1. Unique design, more curvy which definately will give you a better feeling when holding the phone in your hand. Just look at your palm, is it completely flat? I don't think so. Therefore it's easier to hold a curvy S3 in your hand compared to an angular shaped S2. I really think the S3 looks better and gives you more comfort just by seeing the way it's designed.
2. Plastic, it's very sturdy and therefore less damage can happen when it's dropped e.g. to the floor. Drop an iPhone/HTC and get ready to call the service line.
3. Weight, plastic is the way to go if you want a thin and light phone. Some people here sound as if they would like a flipping phone made out of solid osmium (heaviest of all metals)
4. Replaceable components, seriously guys, UNIBODY MY ASS, I want to be able to replace the battery without having to send it to Samsung and wait for the service to fix it. On top of that Unibody doesn't allow you to buy a bigger battery for your phone (though I think the stock 2100 mAh already is good!)
And no SD Card slot like the HTC One X? LOL.
5. Sorry for my english
Those being just some arguments which definately make reasonable why Sammy doesn't choose as same path as HTC/Apple.
Fair points, but I'm still disappointed they went the high gloss route. IMO, if it was matt plastic it would be far more appealing.

I'm not sure the design is totally unique, kind remind me of the Plam Pre.

The back of the phone comes completely off. I'm sure there will be hundreds of back plates to choose from.

It's the same reason why people that own german cars think they have a better quality material eventhough it's the same plastic used in other brands just in different texture
i find it amusing that people think samsung doesnt use metal. the screen is bonded to a cast frame presumably aluminum but maybe magnesium on all the phones i have repaired. remove the battery and scrape the black area underneath with a sharp metal object if you dont believe me. the plastic they use is not only tough and fracture resistant but it's pretty much superficial.
now im sure htc has improved their designs but the evo was toy like in construction. thin cheap plastics and the pcb was a thin single layer design and the copper traces could easily seperate from the board. also the one i repaired had cold solder joints and the spring contacts they used in place or cables were falling off the board.
samsung does things that are frustrating from a development point of view but i never agreed with the quality argument.
well i'm looking forward to the s3 for the audio mostly. but i want to see what challenges the hardware offers aosp development. though i like touch wiz i dont expect samsung to support the device for more than 1 or 2 major updates. i have learned my lesson and will only buy the us version if it is the same hardware profile as the international version. and ill only buy an s3 if the bt and other hardware are aosp friendly.

lol...with such a big battery, the Note will definitely look like a brick which is the perfect term. People were looking in disgust when I used extended batteries in my past phones which made them looked bigger - since then, I had never bought any extended batteries - if I need juice, I take my 2nd stock battery with me.
Lol i get the exact same thing. I was watching a video of how to do some stuff on a note on youtube and thought the guys note looked bigger than mine.

Lol at all these. Actually I've had the same feeling too, and done the double check. On a related note, when I got my Note I ended up going to Amsterdam two days later, and saw 3 Notes on my first day! Helped convince my (iPhone toting) friends it was the best phone in the world!

You are very close! It is actually a well documented psyco-medical condition called "notusus envititis". Medical scientists are currently working furiously for a lasting solution. I doubt if they will succeed before a bigger screened device appears on the scene.
Q - Whats better than a Gnote?
A- Two Gnotes
I'm feeling it too, especially when I see girls with Note in the street and transport. It seems a lot bigger than mine...
The same thing happens when I look at 27" monitors at a store compared to mine at home haha
You got to have a big hand. Thats why when you see others hold their note with their small hands its look bigger...

And here I was thinking that I was going insane. Seems I'm not the only one, I am normal, Yeah Baby!
I've got XL hands, so when I see girls/guys-with-girly-hands use it... I'm like man that's humongous. Mine never looks large, but it feels large with the TPU case on which I only have for the kickstand.
If Samsung shaved the bezels, made it thinner and added a kickstand... I'd be right at home. And if they trimmed it down a 0.1 inch, then I could do acrobatics on one hand ; )
So do you feel the same when showering at the gym?

Because people are all about looks/aesthetics these days, that's why.... either way I wrap my baby up in a case, so ven if I had an M8 you wouldn't be able to see the "premium, beautiful metal build". FYI I prefer the plastic, doesn't dent or scratch nearly as easy as metal, and less weight, so when/if it does fall, it gets less damage!
my fav was the note 2... but this phone is great the m8 was long for no reason didnt feel good in the hand and was heavy
soon as i got the 5 out the box it felt way better before even turning it on

I've never had a problem with touchwiz. This one is more user friendly and maybe more designed for the casual user but I do find things easier now.
The battery life is better than my S3 but all phones seem to start out with battery life being good for the first year then it goes down.

I actually liked the handling of the S4 (might be one of the few who actually did lol!)
I actually have to, but I agree about the bezel. Even tho I really like the look of the S4's bezel, the one of the S5 is pretty horrible lol. I really dont like it at all. But, that alone wouldn't persuade me from getting it.
I'll also admit that the white one feels extremely slippery on the back. Besides using an OtterBox for work every day, I'm not a huge case guy. Soon as i T home each day, I take the Defender off and slip on the Spigen bumper case that I got. Phone almost slipped outta my hands quite a few times already.
Orhan than that, I got no regrets. Very well rounded device. Surely won me over once again compared to HtC

kind of like those people that buy those cases like otter box,etc that increase the phone size by 3-5 times. i can understand if you work in construction and the like, but most people aren't construction workers.
only good thing about these kind of users is they preserve it for the person that buys them used lol.. they never really get to enjoy the full glorious phone. on my S4 i have a spigen neo hybrid, that's as far as i will go with a case, and i often go through periods where i remove the case just to really enjoy the phone's feel. typically i am pretty careful with my gadgets, but there are MANY dumb careless users like those that put their phone in their back pocket and crack the screen on day 1.
wait for release day, i guarantee there will be multiple threads how cheap the phone is because they either dropped it or sat on it.

I'll never understand this logic. Why do you are what it'll look like if you'll stick it in a case anyway?

I have an HTC One M7 and while for the most part I don't use a case every once in a while I do just throw one on. It's normally one of those snap on jobs that just covers the back. I don't know if people who use cases more always have a case on? I guess if you want to protect it in case you want to sell it on later?
The thing that worries me most with cameras that stick out is the glass getting scratched

kind of like those people that buy those cases like otter box,etc that increase the phone size by 3-5 times. i can understand if you work in construction and the like, but most people aren't construction workers.
only good thing about these kind of users is they preserve it for the person that buys them used lol.. they never really get to enjoy the full glorious phone. on my S4 i have a spigen neo hybrid, that's as far as i will go with a case, and i often go through periods where i remove the case just to really enjoy the phone's feel. typically i am pretty careful with my gadgets, but there are MANY dumb careless users like those that put their phone in their back pocket and crack the screen on day 1.
wait for release day, i guarantee there will be multiple threads how cheap the phone is because they either dropped it or sat on it.

Not a constructionworker, but my work could damage or break the phone when not protected. When not at work I dont use a case or whatever. This way I can enjoy the great looks and feel for as long as possible
