The xperia Z is a great phone.
About the same price as the Nexus 5 off contract, with better specs and micro SD slot?
No brainer imo
seems like the b attler between apple and ss is continue in t he states, now they want to ban the s4
apple is just biting it cant chew on....with globalization and eccommerce, ppl will just jump to import buying if they really want the phone
warranty on phonese dont mean these day when everyone changes their phones once a year if they are a trendy got
the 100bucks or so you save on a import, could be better use for ur next new phone...
Will you really resist if your office gives you a free phone upgrade every year....
YEH most work offices type jobs, they give out free handsets instead of money bonuses...
friend fkn got a s4 and the iphone5 last year...fkn wankers
I didn't know that tbh.
Good deal, I'm hereby retracting my lols.
It's not gy at all because I didn't and will never use it to switch to the iPhone.
I just happen to have a free pass to upgrade my Note series phone every year.
Thanks, employers.

Got this phone last week after my razr maxx was seeing some major slowdown.
It's great so far... but the battery drains very quickly. When I wake up I usually browse news stories and reply to texts for maybe 15 or 20 minutes and that usually drains the battery to a bit above 90%
Welcome to the club of Alpha Males.
Make sure to turn off data when you don't need it
It drains juice
I love it otherwise. I have big hands and it fits me perfectly. The 4.3 inch display in the maxx feels incredibly small now. I'm not even sure how I ever used it.
I bought the wireless charging battery cover so i think im just going to buy a couple more of the stations so i can lay it down anywhere in my living/office/or bedroom and not worry about the cables.
Whats your job tbh ?It's not gy at all because I didn't and will never use it to switch to the iPhone.

well that was quick. dropped it maybe 3 feet on the kitchen floor and while the screen didn't crack, something must have busted internally. I knew going in that it wasn't going to be as sturdy as my old maxx but damn.
Damn brah that sucks, why do you think something busted internally? The S4 is indeed not the strongest phone when i t comes to drops, from what I know. I always rock my phones with cases in any case, but that still sucks.
screen is mostly black. you can see the notification bar and about 10% of the rest of the screen, but there's no way to really do anything with it besides check the time.
popped the sim into my old phone and am waiting until mon or tues for the insurance replacement.
Cracked one of the internal layers that holds the liquid crystals. Sorry to hear that sucks. Got a case at all?
nah, unfortunately i didnt. i opted for the wireless charging set up which makes the flip book cases unusable and i didnt want one of the bulkier ones.
now that i know that the s4 is pretty much like a bar of soap (my maxx had a really nice textured back that was gave good grip) ill be getting an otter box
man once u break the screeen through whatever
no point replacing the screen when it costs like 100-200bucks for the parts....
hence you lose alot of sensitivity from the repair screen, cause that isnt fix in a dust free environment like the factories wherever its built...
Ive unrooted but I still have the custom at start up...help? I need to take my phone into the store as im having charging issues. Need that custom off on boot.
Have you relocked the bootloader ?
I am not too tech savvy. What do you mean by that? Or know of any good links? Google seems to be telling me I still need to be rooted to take it off, if I understand correctly.
edit: I have at&t.

If you have rooted your S4, then you have unlocked your bootloader in the process
(the bootloader is locked in the U.S)
Ask your question at XDA forums (ATT S4 subforum)
Yeah I did some research and looks like I need to relock it. I probably did not even unroot. Just did a hard reset and thought that would cure all but apparently not. Hopefully I can still fix it.
Reason I am doing this is because my phone seems to charge through USB (slowly) but not through AC. Maybe its just a bad port but I wanted to take it in.
Double post
ah ok
As for the slow charging through USB, it may be normal, but yo nver know; its agood idea to double check (I've never charged it through USB)
