(source : www.samsung.com)

assalamualaikum and Hi,
so by seeing the picture above, i guess you will know what i will posting bout today.
so, today i will share a little bit of experience using this latest model of Samsung model which is Galaxy S4.
as been explained in my previous entry, i can be categorized as gadget lover.
i love to try any affordable new devices in the market.
some say it is a stupid hobby, but to me, different people has different thing that they love to do.
some people love to change car rims, some people love to change shoe or even "Tudung".
so do they do something stupid?
no right? so let it be. hehehe

so, last week, on Wednesday, after taking a week of consideration to sell my Iphone 5 for this S4,
i have sell my Iphone 5 to some Singaporean guy staying at Kepong.
i advertise my phone using Mudah.my that maybe i will explain bout it in the next entry.
so on the following day which is Thursday, i went to Lowyatt Plaza located at KL to seek for this S4.
after doing some calculation and consideration, i choose to buy the phone at DIGI centre there.
using the Smartphone rebate (given by the government) and taking the contract, i manage to buy a white Samsung Galaxy S4 around RM1800 (market price Rm2199).
so that's it, and now i am using it for almost a week, and i think i want to give some review on it.

so basically, this latest model of Samsung Galaxy line phone has improved several thing internally and externally.
this phone in the S line which means that you cannot compare it with Galaxy Note 2 due to different product line.
so here is the specification of the phone based on Samsung.com,

so , basically, externally, the phone size fit well in my palm,
the design is quite simple as Galaxy S3 but the finishing is improve a lot.
i could say that S4 finishing on the side of the phone is similar with the Iphone 5.
internally, the phone battery quite good where i can use the phone for the whole day and just need to charge it before i sleep.
the camera been improved from 8 megapixel on S3 and note 2, to 13 megapixel.
and the quality of the picture taken is superb and i can say at par with Iphone 5 camera (since Iphone 5 camera seems to be better than Samsung in my opinion).
the speed of the phone slightly improve since the processor also been improved too.
means that, there is no lag, no hang and jammed on the android system that been integrated.
the interface of the system still maintain the original Samsung android Jellybean but with slightly modification to make it differ from other android Jellybean interface.

the main highlights on this model is the new technology that has been implemented in the phone which are "air-view" ,"air-gesture" and "smart-scrolling".

Using Air-view  users can hover their fingers over items such as photos and video to preview them without touching the device's screen.

for Air-gesture, users can scroll or do some function without need to really touch the phone.

The company is also rolling out "Smart Scroll," which allows you to scroll through content on the screen with your eyes and a twist of the wrist.
Smart Scroll, as its name implies, allows you to scroll up or down a Web page by simply moving your head up and down.

this kind of system or technology has bring the mobile phone industry a step higher than before.
this will be a starting point for more advanced and sophisticated technology in the future.
imagine if in the future, everything can be done virtually and every action that been done can be done without really touch it.

and so far, i can say that this new model of Samsung Galaxy seems provide me with everything that i need in a single mobile phone although the new features of "air" need to be improve to be more accurate.
i can do any task that others android smartphone can do such as view document, browsing, social networking, taking picture and video and so on plus this new "AIR" features that can be added value to this phone.
i really hope to see some new and advanced technology in the next model such as Note 3 or Iphone 6.
