And you need those updates because???? I've not seen bad battery life, bad performance on my Note 3. Tap to pay? Do you really prefe to use your phone to pay? There's not too many stores that offer that anyway.
Better is better.
Why do you feel the need to debate and make an update that can make the phone better seem like a non factor?
There are also some apps coming out that need 4.4. I'd use Google Camera just for the Lens Blur setting, but good luck without Kit Kat...
Performance improvements and improved memory management is good for those of us who use our phones above an elementary level. Same for battery life.
4.4 also brings back some features I had on my S3 that currently isn't on this phone. Like save offline in the browser.
Gear Fit won't work with this phone without 4.4.
Camera will improve a little in 4.4.
