just curious, anyone using their new sensors or they just kind of a throw away feature?

Air gestures I use daily! Love it so much!
S-Health not as much as I thought, but might be different when the scale is released and I start getting into my workout routines

Air View and Air Gesture? Definitely. S Health? Everyday. I started using S Health just to know it for my review and I kind of got hooked on it. I work out everyday and for whatever reason, documenting it and keeping track of what I'm eating has been less annoying than I thought it would be. I got used to using the proximity sensor for just raising the phone to my ear to make calls back when I had the S3.

That's about it. The Smart Stay/Scroll options work for the most part, but I haven't found any real use for them.

Air Gestures absolutely. The people look all confused at the gym when I wave past a song on my playlist. And for the text/email preview. The weather here has been horrid so I havent been able to use the S-health but hopefully soon.

I try to use S Healths pedometer but it constantly removes hundreds of steps at a time. Does this happen to anyone else?

Yeah, mine doesn't seem to be counting correctly, and at times seems to lose steps that had already been counted. I went on a five mile hike the other day and it only counted about 1200 steps.

Use nearly all of them. Love using my GS4 as a universal remote. My only complaint is that some of them need a bit of enhancement as some take a bit of time to start and the WhatsOn app doesn't pick my Directv DVR subscription channels like Starz.

Identical experience. Samsung should continue refining those features.

Agreed. I have been using air gesture and the S-health pedometer daily. I'll place my phone on my desk at work, when I get a call I just wave my hand and when it automatically goes to speaker phone is just badass! But S-scroll? Just can't get it to work for me, so it's turned off. Maybe it's because I wear glasses? Not sure.
