Will the 4.99-inch Galaxy S4 be a better smartphone than the 5.5-inch Galaxy Note 2?
IMO it won't be as good as the note. The note gets most of its awesomeness from the S-pen!
I completely agree.I think "better" is subjective. Myself, I don't see the S4 as something to even consider as it's an S3 replacement and not a competitor to the Note 2. After experiencing a 5.5" screen and the S-Pen, I don't want to go back to anything smaller or lose the S-Pen functionality. Now the Note 3? Whole different story! That I look forward to! In the meantime, I'm content to sit back and rock the Note 2.
the two phones will be different. doesn't mean one is "better".
Better is in the eye of the beholder. Everyone has different priorities. I want a large screen. Unless the s4 is larger than the note 2, i don't want it. Others may want a fhd display, faster processor, or whatever goodies the s4 may bring

LOL to those of you who wants to get a 6.3 INCHES NOTE 3. That's almost a Nexus 7 putting it on your face when making calls. No thanks.
Have to wait and see what the size of the Note 3 may be. It certainly won't be anywhere near the size of the Nexus 7, which has a lot of bezel. Samsung could very well fit a 6 - 6.3" screen on a frame not much larger than the current Note 2. They'd have to shrink down the existing bezels and probably go with on-screen buttons. But point being, it won't be anywhere near the size of a Nexus 7 which IS ridiculously large to hold to your ear.
