BATTERY LIFE!

That alone will make or break it for me. I'm actually pretty content with my GSII right now, and would be even more happy with a GS3. The one thing that's killing it for me is the battery. If we can get a battery life like the Motorola Razr Maxx then I'll be a happy camper. My dream is to have the phone last an entire day of active use with wifi/bluetooth/mobile data/gps/etc on at all times. If I could watch video/music and the surf the net for a whole day (or at least 12 straight hours) that would amazing.

Icing on the cake would be:
1) Screen quality of the HTC Evo LTE (or better)
2) no physical button on the front
3) a little thinner/lighter/less bezel than the GS3

Everything else the same as the GS3 is fine...

How on earth do you actually have time to be looking at your phone for 12 hours in one day? Also, remember there is an important distinction between battery life (i.e. How your device uses its battery) and battery capacity (how much energy the battery can actually accommodate). DROID RAZR MAXX has a very large battery (high battery capacity), but a normal battery life. The combination gave a long up time for the phone.

More than anything what you want is a large battery. But we'll see where Samsung will try to hit in terms of thickness for the S4.

Well spotted. Must have been a Freudian slip. Wishing subconsciously for KLP.

In case you did not know, Samsung promised a Samsung wireless charging solution for the GS3 in May 2012 and NEVER DELIVERED on their promise.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Wireless Charging - YouTube

So even if Samsung announces wireless charging for the S4, it does not mean they will actually DELIVER IT.

Thanks for that. I meant built in wireless out of the box. The S3 and Note 2 are capable but you need to buy the receiver pad and of course have a qi wireless charger which I have for my Nexus 4. I also have the receiver pad for my Note 2 and it does indeed charge wirelessly, but I want it built in to use out of the box. Not have to wait on and buy a separate receiver pad.

Does it take longer to charge a phone wirelessly than with a wired connection?

yes it does take a bit longer but no stress on the all important micro usb connector. It is so easy to just lay it down on the charging mat.

Its negligable on my 920 with Qi. Maybe 10-15% longer vs factory charger. I think Qi is the same tech that Note 2 can be upgraded to???? It really is nice. But, I would take Razr Maxx battery life and give up wireless given the option. Save the space Qi coil uses and give me more battery.

Also, screen type will be a huge issue on battery life.

I want it to be on US Cellular. And for it to have good battery life.

I would love some VoLTE....but thats not going to happen. VZW says late 2013, which means early 2016.

Just a removable battery.. please

A phone that doesn't feel like its made out of the cheapest possible material and scratches/dents/cracks all over.

Looks like from the teaser, they failed.

Build a bridge and get over it. If you don't like it because of its shell, move on. The improved features and performance as well as Smart Scrolling and Smart Pause are more than worth it. I am going to put a Defender case on it anyway. Samsung appears to be focusing on internals this go around as per usual.

Here's what I want from the actual announcement - Samsung announces a device, a pre-order is available right after the announcement, and gives a hard release date within one to three weeks of 14 March 2013 that puts this device on most major carriers as quickly as possible.

 

[jcp007]

Amen....

Android 4.2, A non-AMOLED display (or maybe not?), Keep the size manageable and I also really hope that the GS4 has a better camera

It is rumored to have a better camera. Panorama mode.

just one thing better build quality, please stop with the shiny fisher-price plastic and give us metal/glass or something that doesn't feel like I bought it off the shelf at toysrus.

I want my phone S4 to play music in my car. That's the reason, I had to return S3 bcose I was not able to play music in my Nissan Murano. I tried all apps and various tricks as suggested online but it never works out for me. Is this issue gonna be fixed in Galaxy S4?

You can't connect it via an audio cable with two male ends?

Yes, roughly 150%-200% longer though you will hear varying (and exaggerated) numbers on either side of that.

Is that 150%-200% the average time or 150%-200% more than the average time? (1.5-2.0*x) or (1.5-2.0*x+x)?
