  • And it often adds mor
  • Screen difficult to read in sunlight
  • S Voice not as good as Siri

  • Back cover very flimsy
  • Casing and design are not photogenic
  • No camera key

  •  Lack of quad-core processor may impair power users/gamers
  •  PenTile display isn't as crisp as LCD
  •  Unremarkable design
