The editors didn't like
Plastic backing may feel cheap to some
Not a huge upgrade from the GS3
Big surprise to nobody
The software is not up to snuff. Let's ignore for a moment that all of the "innovative" banner "features" mentioned above are at best useless and at worst annoying. The rest of the UI ain't much better. For example
There's a "feat
Whew! Like I said lots going on with this phone's software. A few final odds and ends to close things out
Polycarbonate body creates a slippery grip
Hardware design and materials aren't the nicest out there
Some new features like Smart Pause / Smart Scroll and Air Gesture / Air View can be frustrating to use
The touchscreen wasn't responsive to gloves for
Unpleasant
Cheap design
Sheer number of features can be overwhelming
Performance can suffer in odd places
Rubberised sides would improve feel and grip
Some of the extra camera settings are too novel
Battery could have been bigger for the 1080p screen (but to be fair
Samsung's software seems to be more energy efficient)
Performance comes in second place
Extra app store and S Voice feel like an attemp
Lots of extra software that you may or may not use
Very expensive without a contract
Plastic cover
Confusing features
Lack of standout features that are truly practical
Looks Nearly Identical To The S III
Relatively Pricey
Google's Galaxy S4 variant strips away a lot of Samsung's neat software and photo features
And it comes with a steep price tag
TouchWiz feels dated
Plastic aesthetics
Certain features just don't work
Mediocre battery life
Screen hard to read in direct sunlight
Plastic design
Below-average battery life
Screen hard to view in direct sunlight
Small LTE network

Cluttered interface

Glossy plastic construction
Heavy interface
Occasional UI stutter
Mediocre low-light camera
Too big
Difficult to use with one hand
Much of the proprietary software is forgettable
Noninnovative design and familiar performance
Poor battery life while numerous sensors are activated
Poorly realized Air Gestures function
Does not offer a different feeling than Galaxy S III when being used
Subpar camera quality – did not perform well in low lighting
Its screen is dimmer than competitors'
Its plastic design gives it a cheaper look than its rivals
And we found the Galaxy S4's power button turned on at undesirable times. Not all camera modes work as promised
And a long list of software features can q
Feature overload
Only 9 gigs of internal storage on 16 gig model
Still slippery
Limited storage on 16GB model. Low-light camera performance could be better
Poor battery life
Touchwiz is full of bloatware
Samsung's software is big bag of “why?” Construction is cheap
And there's nothing exotic or inspiring about the hardware design. Camera software is kludgy
And lowlight shots get noisy quickly. Pricing varies widely (see above) but leans toward expensive
TouchWiz has cartoony design
Some features only work with proprietary apps
The build and materials feel cheap
Low-light camera performance is poor
Call quality could be better
Intermittent lag and hesitation
Lots of Samsung and AT&T bloatware
Uninspiring aesthetics
Dated UI which stutters and hesitates occasionally
Many Samsung features are more gimmick than useful addition
Conclusion
As with the other versions of this phone
The Galaxy S 4 for Verizon is an amazing piece of hardware. It'

Plastic case
Multitude of ways to control the phone can be overwhelming
Many features only work in specific apps
Pre-installed bloatware
Speakers could sound better
Several new features are impractical and half-baked
Boring overall design without premium look or feel
Plastic design is not for everyone
Particularly on a flagship phone. HTC One delivers tough competition.
