I like the look of the S4, not a huge departure from the S3 but a bit more refined and masculine, not just an undefined blob of plastic as the S3 was.
HTC still has the best looking android handsets around, I think; despite the non-serviceable battery. If only they were more popular with the general public.

The HTC one reminds me of the Z10.
My cousin has one and I like the squarness of it much like the iphone 4 and 5.
I will most likely be getting the s4 in the coming months and I dont mind if it looks like an s3 because I never owned one.

i dont blame them if there isnt a huge change, how much more boldly could they change how it looks without looking like another smartphone, any upgrade is a good one, hell i noticed the 3g-3gs, 4-4s and those were minimal changes, all i want it a bit smoother experience and battery life wouldnt hurt and im a happy consumer  | |

If the AWS providers have the S3, Nexus4, hell, even the Note, I'm sure they'll have the S4 sooner or later.
And if not... I doubt the AWS customers would make much of a stink if they were only stuck with their current choices, given their $25 unlimited everything plans lol Posted via RS Mobile | |

IMO this is probably like a phone you should go straight to if you've never had a smartphone kind of feel because of the good specs and all.

Up close look, looks like a pretty nice screen (article in chinese but there's lots of pics): 八核体验待优化 三星Galaxy S4独家评测-IT168 手机专区
Warning: two annoying auto-play videos.
Edit: Re the metal bezel, this does not look good

^Damn.
Though a simple case would protect that... I couldn't count how many times I've accidentally put my iPhone in the same pocket as my keys. Didn't notice until now how scratch-resistant the iPhone is

Fobby Korean business man in a suit just doesn't have the same charisma of a salt & pepper bearded white man in a black turtleneck.
Edit: video keeps freezing, so laggy

wtf Galaxy S4 broadway show. The kid from the commercials tap dancing.
Dunno if its just me, but feels like Samsung is trying too hard with the glitz and the glamour.
Edit: Air gestures are pretty cool.

They took some tips from BB, especially with the nearly identical metal band LOL  
EDIT: This is pretty cool though
