    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Never used Kies, I see no use for it. Internally there is a file transfer software that works great and when you plug the phone in you can do standard file transfers from the PC. Maybe Kies is for Mac users? Dono...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    That's how it should be. They are phones. You should be able to pick them up and use them. They should do what they are supposed to. That was my experience with my iPhone. It just worked. With my S4 it's been completelly different, got to fight it every step of the way. I truelly wished...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    No you don't. I have been using the S4 for several months (got mine the day it came out after waiting for 3 months) and this is after using the iPhone 3gs for 3.5 years. When I tell you about my experience you call me a liar. So stop trying to appear neutral and wanting information, you just...

    What can I do about it. Does Samsung support their products at all?

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone Hum... are you saying I can replace S-Voice by Dragon to control the phone? I need to be able to voice dial, make requests like time and all that verbally. I also need to be able to activate it through the use of the button on the headset.

    8-10 hours is even worst than what I get. I don't go anywhere I didn't with my iPhone... and I am on the same carrier so signal strenght should be the same for my new phone.

    Yes, I doubt you could use it in the phone if you did not format it. First time around it worked fine, I was able to transfer all my media, my dropbox material and everything to it. I just realised yesterday that the phone can't see the files anymore.

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Well, I don't know about that. I tried to install a game called Bard's Tales 2 weeks ago. It would not install because my memory was full. So I ordered a Samsung 64 Gb memory card (that is when I learned I screwed by Samsung by having only 8 gb of usable ram). When I received the sd card I...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone What's wrong with Siri? I my iPhone was too old to have it but all my friends how have iPhones that use it love that service. As far as I know Siri is the best AI on any phone. I really don't like S-Voice, it really sucks big time. I often have to take the...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone Actually I have a friend who uses the iPhone 5. He uses his phone a lot more than me. He is always taking and making calls for his work and he is the type of person who is constantly doing stuff on the phone (internet/apps). His battery lasts all day...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone Hum... here is some of the lag I still experience... Using S-Voice: "Call (name of person)"... 5 seconds delay.... There are multiple entries for (name of person) do you want to call home or work? ... "Home"... 5 seconds delay.... Calling ... My Apple 3gs does...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone I can't disagree with you more. You should not have to research how to get your phone to work properly out of the box. Having a battery that dies before the day is over is unaceptable. Lag on a phone that has twice the processing power of the fastest Apple...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Re: s4 not as good as an iPhone Dang forgot to quote LOL... Was a post regarding not being able to find 3rd party chargers... Agreed on this. One of the only things I like about my S4 (that and the 5 inch screen). I purchased 5 cables for this phone on eBay, they cost me 1$ each. That's...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    I feel the same. For me the major issues are: - Voice recognition is very flawed. If there is any noise or Wind or anything it doesn't work. When it does work it will do all sorts of stupid things. - Battery life is a joke. I rarelly use the phone, maybe once or twice a day and the battery...
