At this point, all phones are pretty competent at doing 99% of the necessary tasks. What makes me want to spend a new 500 bucks on a device is getting to play with something fresh, unique and new. I don't see any of that on the Galaxy S4, if you already have an S3...or any iPhone since iPhone 4. |
Ah now I understand. That's actually a very valid question, since many people have the S3. Well, tbh for the majority of people who have an S3 they probably will be satisfied enough to where they don't have to upgrade because the S3 is efficient enough, and the S3 is good! But as for me, and other smartphone enthusiasts, I like to mess around with the more powerful stuff and push phones to their limits, or try too.
Now, your picture is a bit misleading. I'm sure the S4 is slightly bigger than the S3 than what it shows and also lighter.
As for the screen, well 720p is perfectly fine but full HD is better. I think its more of just a bragging point there. I mean things will look A LOT clearer with the HD screen (442ppi vs 326ishppi) so the HD screen is not really a deciding factor I guess.
Some of the S4 features are very nice some of which I'm looking foward too like the hand sensors and what not, being able to wave your hand over the phone or air view with your finger and the dual camera experience. And there's tons more but you get the picture.
So you're right. If you have an S3, upgrading to the S4 is not necessary. But it wouldn't be because they looked similar, but because the features the S4 has wouldn't be enough to warrrant an upgrade. I personally would upgrade though becaue I like the larger screen and the newer tech but that's just me.
