To be fair, aluminum is no ordinary metal. I think it would be prohibitively expensive to make any car out of aluminum. So this isn't a very good argument at all. That said, polycarbonate is a miracle of science and metals like aluminum are no slouch in comparison. We can have our preferences...

I don't get the argument at all either. I was trying to read through all the responses. But did anyone talk about aluminum's ability to transfer heat? Given the phones can get pretty hot, I've always been curious how aluminum would handle this. It is my understanding that aluminum conducts heat...

Out of curiosity... why does UK usually get Samsung phones or any phones for that matter first? Is it just their chips are easily produced to match the GSM network out there? Or is there some behind-the-scenes deal that the Americas are not a part of? Also Verizon confirmed they'll get it via...

The audience was the worst part. I don't think the crowd knew how to laugh or applaud. I think that added to the awkwardness a lot. That said, the jokes were corny and the scenarios were fake, as admitted by the host in some sort of attempt to be clever. That said, big event, prime seats, get...

I get the sensation that a lot of people (not everyone) are choosing not to buy this phone because they already use an awesome phone that came out last year. To me it's all about the specs, and right now, nothing comes close to the power the GS4 brings in the same size. So coming from my RAZR...

I did not know this. That said, the philosophy still rings through, unlocked phones at an affordable price point is the way to go--for Google at least. I understand now that other manufacturers won't be so fortunate. Unless they all made Nexus devices, and Google subsidized them all, haha. Or...

Yeah, personally, I am not a big fan of the HTC (ever since the thunderbolt debacle), and I love the solid build and simplicity of Motorola's hardware and software, respectively, and would be ready to throw a few bucks at a Nexus 4 or any Nexus that is unlocked, but I'm currently limited to...

I think we also have to consider that annual phones are not meant for those who picked up last year's model. Considering even with the suspected specs, the GS4 is a good step above the GS3, however, anyone with a GS3 will have no problem using their phone another year to fulfill their contract...

Kind of a coincidence that all these 'leaks' arrive just before a big announcement. Just clever marketing, nothing to see here. Then again, no one would really care about these leaks but enthusiasts (who are probably already going to get the phone regardless). So it's kind neat to see Samsung...

I hope Moto/Google leaks something more than a "game changer" before the S4 hits the shelves--that said, it looks like they have some time to do so. S4 might not even hit the shelves in America until after the Google I/O, but hopefully Samsung tries to push it out sooner from a sales standpoint...

I don't think anyone with an S3 on a 2 year contract will have any reason to drop contract or use an upgrade for the S4. I think manufacturers understand now, as well as many consumers, that annual phone releases are for those finishing their 2 year contracts opposed to those in the middle of...

No bloat. Give me everything else, but keep Verizon and promos out of my app drawer.

RAZR to S4, unless I hear something "game changing" about the X Phone prior, amirite?

Damn I'm in south Philly and nothing yet. I hope it happens some time today.

Just gonna post a comment here :p
