IE: We need the newest toys?????
For all of you using smart phones and wanting to upgrade I have to ask, WHY????? I can make perfectly good phone calls on my old cell phone.
Because we no longer use phones as phones anymore. Hell unlimited calling which would have been a cell phone dream 10 years ago is now the norm and as a family of 3 we barely use 240 minutes a month. We send text messages, more than call now it's unobtrusive. I have my work email configured on my phone so whether in a meeting where I am perceived as needed but not ancillary to the discussion I can keep up with email. I use voice to text transcription to take quick notes and always have my business and personal calendar available to me. Curious about something you just heard you can google it on the spot, social media quickly accessible, anf my phone can even work as my personal trainer when I go running. I can also remotely connect to my work network through my phone and have access to my servers that I am responsible for. And though the OP doesn't like iPhones the 5 has replaced carrying a point and shoot camera for us.
Yep the newest toys, or he who dies with the most toys, wins.
Sorry I still do not understand because I can still make a plain old fashion phone call and do not understand the need to text. I would rather hear their voice when I am talking to someone.
It's not about toys for some - it's about utility.

I've even remoted into my church's A/V booth during a service to fix an issue... hopefully we get a digital console later this year so that pretty much the entire system can be run remotely if necessary.

Here's a pretty good S4/S3 comparison.

Oddly enough, Rick, I used to have the same opinion. After all, the only reason I had a phone for the most part was so the wife could get in touch with me. I seldom ever called anyone else. However, I have an issue with driving in Tulsa. My directions for North/South/East/West are way off. When the wife and our youngest son were looking at phones about a year and a half ago, I had been considering a smart phone. As a joke, I asked the salesman if the phone could have a compass application. He downloaded one on the spot and a phone was sold to a hesitant user.
