Samsung Galaxy S IV Specifications and Price in the Philippines: The best Android smartphone?

There’s a new Galaxy that has been discovered and no, this Galaxy can’t be found from the outer space but this one can be seen on our Atmosphere. It’s the Samsung Galaxy S4. It is touted as the next big thing. So what’s new in it for us? well, Sammy’s new flagship packs a 1080p 5″ display and a 1.6 GHz Octa-Core processor! Yeah, I know. The processor acts like a dual quad-core processor. Why? because The Samsung Galaxy S4 has 4 A-15 processors which is only used for heavy task applications while there’s a 4 A-7 processors which has low power consumption which is use for not-so-heavy applications like the internet browser and E-Book readers.

Basically, the Samsung Galaxy S4 is just a refined Samsung Galaxy S3. The screen just got larger and the design is still somewhat similar to the Samsung Galaxy Note II and the Samsung Galaxy S3. It’s funny that they’re following the footsteps of Apple. I’m not saying they copied Apple but Samsung Galaxy S4 only had a few minor and not eye-popping hardware upgrades and they focused that much on the software side.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 runs on Android 4.2.2 which is the latest version of Android. And just like the Samsung Galaxy S3, it packs a lot of unique features. There’s the additional S features on the Samsung Galaxy S4 like the S health which helps you keep in shape. It would be better if you buy an accessory for it. There’s Air Gesture and Air View on the SGSIV too just like its bigger brother, the Samsung Galaxy Note II.

I was kinds disappointed by Samsung because there aren’t that much aesthetic changes that happened on the Samsung Galaxy S IV. I think, we shouldn’t frown to Samsung about choosing plastic over aluminum. They have already invested in that design for years. Choosing an aluminum design over a plastic would just add to that “Things that Samsung copied from Apple”. I was not impressed that much on the Samsung Galaxy SIV. Hmm. If I have the money to buy a new flagship phone, I rather choose the HTC One
