Samsung Galaxy S4 Hands On!

2013-03-14
hey guys this is Austin who's Damon here life is the Samsung unpacked event for the launch of the galaxy s4 so we just watched the keynote they showed off a lot of the cool features so let's take a look the phone looks very similar to the Galaxy s3 it is a bit taller and thinner but it's got the same basic shape with a slightly larger 5-inch display speaking of that screen it is a full 1080p resolution and coupled with the fact that it's an AMOLED screen it looks fantastic viewing angles are great brightness is great this is seriously one of the best screen phones i-best phone screens I have ever seen inside the galaxy s4 you'll find either an Exynos 5 octa 8-core processor or a Snapdragon s4 pro quad core processor depending on where you live most likely the s4 Pro will be launching in the United States and both of these phones are paired with 2 gigabytes of RAM as well as a big 2600 milliamp hour battery which should give it nearly Note 2 sized battery life which will be awesome the phone is running Android 4.2 jelly bean which is the latest version of Android so far and is running the TouchWiz skin now this is mostly the same as which will find on the galaxy s3 in the note 2 so if you didn't like it there you're probably not gonna like it here however from my brief hands-on time I definitely did see quite a few improvements it seemed a little bit smoother a lot of the transitions and everything it looked a lot more polished than any previous version of it that I've ever seen the camera has been upgraded to 13 megapixels which is quite a bit better than the 8 megapixel cameras that you'll find on the galaxy s3 as well as the note 2 at least on paper and it does have several new modes my favorite is dual camera mode so what it allows you to do is take pictures and video with both cameras at one time so for example for taking video on the back facing camera if you wanted to go ahead and bring in the front facing camera and overlay that on the video which actually is a really cool feature and I'm surprised that no one has actually ever thought of this before there are also lots of additional features so one of them is air view now what this is is it allows you to actually pull up some menus for example like a context menu without actually touching the screen all you need to do is hover your finger above it you know automatically open pretty gimmicky I don't think we'll probably using it that much but it is cool that you can actually interact with the screen without actually touching it another cool feature is that the galaxy s4 is outfitted with an IR blaster which will allow to function just like a TV remote so you all you need to do is go ahead and program all your TVs and set-top boxes and anything else that you want into the phone and just point it out at no work just like a normal TV remote which is actually pretty cool the Samsung Galaxy has four will begin shipping late April this year and they didn't announce surprise however it will almost definitely be around the same price as the Galaxy s3 was when it launched anyway I'm curious to know what do you guys think about the brand new Galaxy s4 definitely be sure to let me know what you think in the comments below if you guys are interested more feel free to check out my last video where I went over what to expect with the Xbox infinity if you enjoyed definitely be sure to leave this video a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos like this be sure to subscribe anyway guys I will catch you next time
