Does it have a removable sim?

Seems like it might not work abroad. When you go to Sprint and filter down the phones clicking on WorldPhone the s4 is gone. The HTC One on the other hand still shows up.

Hope the S4 works overseas as well.

Sprint pre-order is apparently sold out.  I didn't think there would be such a demand for them as the S3 but I guess I was wrong.

Anyone here with the s3? Was it promoted as a world phone but then you couldn't set the APN settings? Or did it just happen to work globally?


Is the s4 going to be a world phone? Will you be able to change the APN settings to use data out of the US?

So the good news is the s4 from Sprint should be a world phone though I have yet to confirm if you can change the APN settings for data overseas.  The bad news is AFAIK they didn't leave Hebrew as a menu Language like the HTC one did.
Oh well. Nice added perk from HTC.

Is it really that much of an upgrade from the S3?

No, but it's better and an awesome phone.  If you don't have the 3, it's a great thing to get.

It seems nice. I doubt its worth upgrading from an s3. Just began playing with the s4 today. Will keep everyone updated.

Is there no auto correct on the Galaxy s4?
What about the s3?

I have the iphone 4s for a while. I'm hearing a lot about the new galaxy. Is the recommendation to switch to the galaxy or stay with the iphone? Having a replaceable battery is great. Does the galaxy have notes like the iphone? Can you transfer notes and phone numbers from the iphone to the galaxy?  Does it have a cloud backup like the iphone, or hopefully better?

I'd switch. It has all those things. You'll still have to get used to a new phone and software but I think most people would be happy with the switch.
