Heating Issues
By Baswanthon
Everything looks perfect in this phone like features, camera, etc.
However, phone heats up abnormally. This is very much irritating.
Worst quality, its like winning lottery to get good S4
By Ganeshon
Never ever buy Indian version S4.
Only good is camera and display.
Battery: Worst, if you use it , it dies.So dont use or even bye it....
Heating issue: If want use it for gaming, 3G browsing or even calling it heats up like a heater. It is highly unusable for heavy task.
Quality issue: It may die or give problem on any unlucky day. It may be blank screen problem, Wi fi, ear phone problem, charging heating problem etc..
Highly delicate and worst build for the price.And samsung tells it as life companion, what a lie, it cant even serve us even a year.....
Now I can say Sony z/z1/z2 is a life companion, it is built tough with great feature, water and dust proof. It just gives company in all situations and can serve for years......
I was lucky, I returned my S4 due to Screen Blank issue.I can trust WS RETAIL but not SAMSUNG any more.
After seeing their S5 , I can only tell SAMSUNG is just cheating INDIANS.
Sorry Samsung , you have learn to give reliable products for people hard earned money. Specially for Indians.
Thanks for WS RETAIL AND FLIPKART for their superb customer service.
A 30% failure rate on a smartphone like Galaxy S4 - Battery Issues
By Bejoy Francison
I bought an S4 in Aug and in Oct my Phone started bulging and switching off because the battery inside is swelling and pushing my screen out.... My Samsung S4 has this problem... and after raising a complaint with Samsung India on 30302828... They say that they are not aware of this issue... please search S4 Battery issues in Google and you would know the intensity of this... Buy some thing else... Iphone or nexus or some thing else.... at least they are more customer oriented than this CHEAP PATHETIC SAMSUNG....
Think about it: A 30% failure rate on a smartphone like Galaxy S4 is huge considering that Samsung has sold approximately 12 million since June. That's about 4 million failures and 4 million unhappy customers. It took 4 million angry customers to make Samsung react. That's not exactly a sign of leadership.
They have not reacted in INDIA YET....
I am 1 among this 4 million users.... LUCKY Meeeee

By Akhil Laljion
I bought the Deep Black for 21k which looks stunning! Absolutely gorgeous!
Pros:
- 2013 Flagship
- Price
- Awesome Display
- Amazing Primary Camera (Close to DSLR level)
- UI looks cool
- Weighs only 130g
- Super Slim
- Amazing Speaker Output (Both earpiece & loudspeaker)
- Feature Rich
Haven't tried any games as of now!
Benchmarks:
Antutu : 32,000
Quadrant Standard : 12,000
Nenamark 2 : 60fps
(The phone got very hot while benchmarking)
Cons:
- Heating! : The phone gets very hot while doing heavy stuff! But it immediately cools down.
- Internal Storage : Close to 8.5GB user available storage out of 16GB! That's pathetic!
- Battery : The battery life is only above average! Under medium usage, the battery drains at 20 units per hour in auto-brightness.
- Noticed some minor lags here and there. Nothing serious.
The Pros outweighs the Cons. Bought a Gold Spigen Slim Armor case. The Black and Gold combo looks awesome!
HIGHLY DISSATISFIED.
By Bau5on
Bought this phone early this year. Phone build quality is good. Leather back feels quite exquisite. However I am not at all satisfied with the product despite the positive reviews. I've already invested in a new phone. The reasons are as follows:1) I think this phone is meant for people who've never owned a flagship before. I had switched from a HTC flagship which had stopped working.2) This phone is extremely slow. Takes ages to open and close apps.3) Multitasking is also very slow.4) Battery life is very poor. With average usage and power saver always on, I'd be lucky to get through half a day. I could literally see the battery % fall drastically while playing a game for like 15-20 mins. Will definitely need to charge the device twice a day.5) Has a lot of bloatware google apps that are of no use. No way to delete them.My main reason for buying this was that I saw it as value for money. However, had I been a little wiser, I would have opted for the one plus.Would recommend only for people moving from a phone under 10k to this. Considering that a iphone 5S is available at same/lesser price, I will not recommend this device at all!Bad investment for me.P.S. I REVIEW EACH PRODUCT ONLY AFTER A FEW MONTHS USE.

By Amazon Customeron
One of the major reason I bought this phone is for Google cardboard and other VR apps as the phone has a 441 ppi pixel density screen. For VR apps the resolution gets halved and a higher ppi means that even when halved it delivers a great viewing experience (unlike other phones which causes considerable pixelation and dimming). Moreover it has a great gyro for 360 views and the IR blaster is one of the unique features and works flawlessly with the watch on app (samsung 3d led + tata sky). You may have heard people talking about human eye incapable to distinguish resolutions beyond a particular ppi but as per my experience (I have used a Nexus 7, an iphone 4, Nokia E6, a lumia 720, Xperia X10 and Yu Yuphoria) the S4 display is what we call 'real retina crisp display' (what you see in iphone 6 and s6 edge). About heating issue you need to do some tweaks namely disable all unnecessary apps and services, install the chrome fix for samsung (as major heating occurred with chrome browser) and disable facebook to run unnecessarily in the background. An sview cover is must as there is some real heating near the earphone area (after 10mins of a call) which can be overcome by the flip cover or a bluetooth headset. The Sview cover also minimizes unnecessary use of the hardware button. Battery lasts for one complete day with more than average usage (intense browsing mostly through apps, little browser, little youtube, continuous whatsapp, news, ~20 mins call, little gaming and 3G+wifi on 24 hours). I have also started loving the Touchwiz launcher as it has matured a lot (of course you need to disable the junk) and with a 2GB RAM the device manages to push through effortlessly. I still love my Lumia 720 camera and Xperia sound...for display part the S4 is a clear winner.
Review after 3months of usage..Good but not that great
By Vipin Dason
I have placed an order for this item on Feb 19th. I have received the phone on 21st. The packing was not all that great, the carton was crushed at the edges. There was no air bags inside the carton and due to which the actual phone box was also crushed at the edges. I would say bad packing but good delivery.Lookwise the phone exels from the other two variants of s4. The leather finish looks great and premium. All accesories provided is of good quality. The good thing is there is a pre applied screen guard on the phone. The phone is not to large or bulky..jus the right sizePerformance is not that great. The biggest issue is heating even while browsing. I accept the fact that all phones heats up on gaming but this phone heats up even if u browse the internet for 5mins. Battery drains fast and needs to be charged twice or thrice a day with average use.Camera and sound quality is great I would say. Air features works great. Superfast charging. Overal the phone is not that good nor that bad.
A very good buy for Rs 17999 with free cover
By Ektaon
A very good buy for Rs 17999 with free coverBy HituReceived on 19 March before one day we'll service from amazonI will not get too much technical about the phone as you can get that from all the other reviews. After on week of having the phone I will just give some pros and consPros1. The phone is fast. Lags temporarily sometimes.2. Battery Gets charged up quickly. But?3. Outstanding display.4 . Air swipe is fun and works pretty well.5. Camera is nice.Low light sensitivity is decent.5 Got delivered from Amazon in 4 days.Cons1. Eye sensors are not good. Features like eye scrolling and smart pause does not work well. You have to hold the camera at precise angle and make sure your eyes are towards light and the camera is not..is too much ..still it dont work sometimes2. Heats up slightly CPU heats up to 51 degree maximum while using certain applications.3. Battery is very poor compare to price and other mobile twice charge in a dayAll over phone is good in this price except battery
Decent phone for the price
By Girish K.N.on
Very good hardware, with few glitches in software and some serious heating issues, but overall a value for money device. Camera is very good quality and has various camera options added to it. Dual mode of camera is a cool feature wherein you can take a single photo combining images from both front and rear camera simultaneously. Battery life is also decent considering its display resolution is high. It comes about more than a day on regular usage. Android 5.0 update is also not bad, I don't have any issues which affects my day-to-day usage. No 4G can be a problem for cities where 4G is already available, was not an issue for me. Had received the samsung original s view flip cover worth 2500 free with this and a discount of 1500 with sbi card. I feel its a vfm phone on that price.Amazon service is very good. I had got a replacement and refund for product received first which had serious heating issues. The one I got on replacement is better. The original back cover coming with phone is too thin which makes us feel more heat. Once I installed flip cover which is thicker than original back cover, I rarely feel heating of phone.
My good choice

Great Mobile with Lots of Features
By Pranjalshilon
It was a Great Mobile at its time when I just bought it. Every Friends was Excited after seeing my Mobile.
Pros :
1.Camera - Rear Camera has many Features really, Like Clicking Pictures in Night Mode. Slow and Fast motion Video recording supported. Many Modes are there for clicking pictures and lots of Fun.
2.Display - It is AMOLED Full HD Screen , watching Videos in it is Awesome.
3.Lots of Features - An assistant Menu is there in the Accessibility Settings which lets you do many things more easily directly fastly. There is A Multi window mode through which You can open two apps simultaneously and do two things at a time.
Besides, there are many more features if you want to see click and download this video here
http://wapking.guru/fileList/5388/new2old/1.html
4.Look - Very Very awesome stylish look it carries... I bought Black colour edition, the back cover has matte finish & Stich design at the ends, again the phone is moderately slim. So it looks Gorgeous in hand
Cons :
1.Battery - Does not runs the whole day if I use my phone outdoor with a great brightness and if the data is continuously on. Although I have cut short use of mobile in outdoor conditions, rather I use mobile in lower brightness and in Night time I prefer using the Night Mode App for lower brightness.
2.Only 3G - It doesn't Support 4G ... Very Sad
3.Only Single SIM - Unfortunately, I didn't get the dual sim model of this set on Snapdeal or any other websites in this Price Range...so bought the single sim model
4.Front Camera - It's only 2 MP shooter so you can easily understand how the quality of the selfies will be. But in bright light especially during day time it clicks moderately good pic. (I clicks selfies with the back Camera )
I am still loving my Mobile. I use & handle my mobile very carefully and it has never kept me on hanging. I can not remember when it went Slowed down or I had to remove my battery , as I have told you that I take care of my mobile very much.
Only I wish my mobile to be an dual sim variant one.
