Dimensions

Some users find the 4.8-inch screen of the Galaxy S3 is too large, so that the device is too unwieldy. A screen with 4.6-inch screen size (between S2 and S3) would be a good alternative. With a very small margin, the housing would not be larger than that of the S2 handy. Moreover, many would like to form more akin to the S2. A difficult task for Samsung, but Apple keeps the rights to certain design patterns. The COMPUTERBILD vision of the Galaxy S4 the top right of the S3 in the middle, the left S2.

Design

Tastes vary, but an attractive design and quality materials make for larger (buying) interest. With Apple's iPhone aluminum and glass are used. HTC is also partly due to aluminum housing, about the One S The desire of many Samsung fans. away from the "plastic" look! A plastic housing with a smartphone-class acts "cheap", so the uniform tenor. COMPUTER BILD has therefore missed the S4 a metal back.

Data Turbo

The Galaxy S3 is already supporting the faster UMTS successor LTE - but not for the European market. That should change with the Samsung Galaxy S 4. Thus, the bars in the display show full signal strength, the LTE network in Germany but must grow.

Software requirements

Galaxy smartphones put on almost all Android with Samsung's TouchWiz interface, yet that bothers some. You want a smart phone with pure Android, which offers only the Galaxy Nexus series. Alternative operating systems such as Windows Phone 7, iOS or Ubuntu remain for the Galaxy S4 wishful thinking. Realistically an improved Swype (accessibility) and more comfort features are (as voice commands), such as the Galaxy S3 has been introduced in parts.

Virtual keys

When physical home button share the opinions. For some, it is unnecessary to finally faded Android (version 4.0) along with him a menu and back button on the screen. The S3 (left, slightly reduced) still has a Home button between two sensor buttons. Many might not do without it. Despite coming from the COMPUTER BILD Design by Galaxy S4 without front buttons: Fewer housing area is modern and does better in transit!

Display

The screen is one of the most important features of a smartphone. The S3 has a great AMOLED display with high resolution. The COMPUTER BILD test revealed a weakness, if it is light, the image of the S3 too dark and therefore difficult to read. The COMPUTER BILD users have suggestions for improvement. They range from the screen with an LCD instead of AMOLED technology towards a display with full HD resolution and 3D function. Best to take the display almost the entire front, a user request.

Processor and memory

A quad-core processor, such as the S3 has grown for the foreseeable future all smartphone functions. Since the users are in agreement. However, they require more memory that remains since the S2 with 1,024 megabytes (MB). With many open browser windows and apps which is a bottleneck - the smartphone delayed reaction, the jerky operation. The desire for more RAM (two gigabytes) is understandable.

Camera and Special Functions

A good camera should be obvious. The improvement of S2 to S3 was minimal, and the resolution has also done nothing. When S4 Samsung is therefore called for. A 3D camera, a built-in projector (such as Galaxy Beam ) or a dual SIM function (about Galaxy Y Duos ) are among the more unusual user wishes. S4 for the virtual design is COMPUTERBILD has opted for a dual-lens: It looks good and makes sense, since 3D has the potential to more than a cute gimmick.

More Stamina

Powerful processors and large, bright displays are taking their toll. Almost all smartphone users would therefore like more stamina from their mobile phone. The Galaxy S4 requires a combination of better battery and efficient energy management. Also the possibility to change the battery, is desirable (hence the screws in the picture).

Assessment

Even with the Galaxy S4 remain to be desired, even if Samsung strives to have the latest hardware and software on board. One can only wonder whether the Koreans again invent some clever features like the S3, which had previously no one on the list.
