"For the Galaxy S 4 16GB model, approximately 6.85GB occupies [the] system part of internal memory, which is 1GB bigger than that of the Galaxy S3, in order to provide high resolution display and more powerful features to our consumers. To offer the ultimate mobile experience to our users, Samsung provides [a] microSD slot on Galaxy S 4 for extension of memory."
"First reported to Samsung back in October, still a problem. You’d think if anyone would have a Copy function that worked perfectly, it’d be Samsung."

Android Phans Funniez
- Android Phan: Your iPhone is stupid. Glass back, no expandable memory, no removable battery, No LTE.
- iPhone User: It's not really that important to me. I like the phone.
- Google: "Today we announce the Nexus 4. Glass back, no SD card slot, built in battery, and HSPA+ only"
- Android Phan: ANDROID RULZ0RS!!!@!#&*#(!)&(*
"In essence, they have effectively lied to consumers about the way they handle business and I would like for this to be brought to light, so that others may know just what they are getting into when dealing with Motorola Mobility and its affiliates. It is just very frustrating to have such a high-end device (that I worked hard to have) be left in the dark and abandoned by a company that I thought to be one of the leaders of the communications and development industry."

T-Mobile Announces The Galaxy S Relay 4G, QWERTY Keyboard And All | | TmoNewsTmoNews
The “Galaxy S Relay 4G.”
Sorry, but whomever is naming these things needs to be shot. It’s like they have to get the 4G, Product Line, and a catchy corny name into every product name.
No wonder they copy Apple; they have no idea what simple and elegant mean.
The Difference Between Android Users & iPhone Users

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Review: An Embarrassing, Lazy, Arrogant Money Grab
He’s not impressed…
I’m sad to report that Samsung failed at execution on all fronts. Samsung has been pushing the skinning envelope further and further, and, with this revision of TouchWiz, they’ve slammed into a brick wall. Couple this failure with astonishingly bad hardware and a $500 price tag, and you’ve got yourself a real disappointment. Samsung promised us the moon, and then cut corners everywhere possible, and it’s hard to walk away not feeling a little insulted.
"Yesterday, reports Bloomberg, Google’s newly acquired Motorola unit filed for patent-infringement against Apple with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC),” Kosner reports. “The complaint would block Apple’s import of iPhones, iPads, iPod Touchs and some Macintosh models."
"In November of last year, Adobe made a surprising about-face on its popular Flash plugin, announcing that it would stop development of Flash for mobile devices. Today, Adobe will disable new installs of Flash on Android, effectively cutting it off from the future of the mobile web — despite the company’s historical assertion that Flash would enable the “full web experience” on mobile devices. Instead, Adobe surrendered the major mobile battlegrounds and pledged allegiance to HTML5."
~ A: Steve Jobs was right. B: Steve Jobs was right. C: Steve Jobs was right. D: What will the Fandroids hold over people’s heads now? Flash for mobile was such a big deal to them, even though it always worked like shit (Walt Mossberg famously said it to an Adobe executive’s face), so it’ll be interesting to see them all backtrack and point out how insignificant Flash is in the long run on a mobile device. Flash for Android dies today, long live the ‘full web experience’ | The Verge
Cute Coffee Woman From Samsung Commercial
If you’ve been watching the Olympics, you’ve surely seen the Galaxy SIII commercial with the torch passing folks, including one really cute woman who gets the “torch” and a cup of coffee, then hurdles some barricades:
I’ve always thought she was very pretty and was curious as to who she was. Her name is Anna-Louise Herzog. Here’s what she looks like when she’s not being an athletic coffee drinker:
And here’s more info on her in case you were crushing on her too.
I think she’s freakin’ awesome.
Oh one more thing, in case you were wondering: The song is by a band called Leftover Cuties, and the track is called Smile Big.
"Confusion with Apple’s iPad appears to have played less of a role in returns of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1 than has previously been suggested.
Device malfunction was cited nearly three times more than a desire to exchange a Tab for an Apple iPad among the greatest reasons for returns, according to a study conducted by Samsung at Best Buy Stores in 2011.
"
~ Basically, Samsung’s defense is “Our products are garbage, not knockoffs!” Malfunction, not iPad, played greater role in Galaxy returns | Apple - CNET News
What a fucking joke. Your OS is out for 9 months and only 10 percent of the products out there run it?
Great job, guys. Really. It’s so nice to be so open that everyone sinks their dirty fucking claws into your OS.
