Not sure why anyone would not use a case since they prolong the life of phones and can add style or a personal touch. There are many thin cases that offer good protection like the Spigen Slim Armor or for more protection UAG cases and as the previous post mentioned they can also provide better...

I use to think the stock player was decent, then I tried PowerAmp... What a difference. PowerAmp is awesome and for a free one I like winamp.

I have tried 4 cases with the UAG being my most recent and favorite. I've tried Spigen Slim Armor, Puregear Dualtek, Poetic Atmosphere, UAG. Best protection was the Dualtek, but it makes the phone almost too wide to use in one hand, love the Spigen, but it offers little protection to the...

For the price Dualtek by Puregear is also very nice and offers a lot of protection. I really like my Slim Armor by Spigen, but wish it had a more prominent lip to protect the screen so i just ordered a UAG case to check them out. All 3 of those offer some shock absorption and aren't quite as...

I've been doing some research lately for some Bluetooth speakers on a budget and the 3 I'm between are: JBL Flip ($99), Logitech UE Mobile Boombox ($79), and the Oontz Ultra portable ($49, not the angle for 39). All of those get great reviews, are rechargeable, and you can use Bluetooth or a...

I was also torn between the HTC One and GS4 and would still probably go with the S4. The main reasons i wanted the HTC One were for the more sturdy construction and 2 front speakers, but considering I'll put a case on it anyway (although it looks sweet naked) and when i listen to music I use...

I was torn between WinAmp and stock player, both with their pros and cons...then I tried Power Amp. After being a fan of WinAmp for a few years it only took about 15 minutes before I was sold on PowerAmp. I love how easily it finds album art, love all the widget options, and the EQ and...

In my opinion the GS4 is the best to date. I spent days reviewing forums, videos, and checking them out in store and S4 was my choice for a few reasons. It's got the fastest processor, best camera, great battery life with removable battery and SD card, and more bells and whistles than anything...

Thanks for all of the suggestions guys, after 14 hours off the charger I'm still at 69% battery with light to medium use :) The additional changes i made this morning were: 1. letting it run down to 1% then got a full charge 2. went into Google Now settings and turned off the reporting for...

But how does brightness, whether it's on Auto or set to low, affect my battery that much? My phone was in idle mode or with screen off for 9 of those 10 hours and it was already down to 24% battery. Yeah Nfc, Air view, all of that was off. I realize I wouldn't get a lot of time out of my...

In the 10 hours between my full 100% charge and 24% left i only used my phone 45-60 minutes at most so the screen brightness shouldn't really be a factor right? My phone was in my car while i worked all day besides my break. Something just doesn't seem right if the screen was off 90% of that...

I bought my Galaxy S4 (Verizon) 6 days ago and i'm still within the 14 day return policy and today noticed much more battery loss than usual so i'm debating returning it for a new one. I came from a Droid Razr and am experiencing a little better battery life than my Droid, but today was a...
