Sure if those things matter and you are willing to use a chep and plasticky feeling phone that is more likely to break when you drop it, you may have a point. I can show you what happened to my Samsung Focus S (Same phone as Galaxy S2) after a drop out of my pocket. My Lumia 920 has been dropped 10 times worse and its stll fine.  

Some of the things you mention would be cool like a bigger removable battery, however no matter what the battery life is (unless its droid RAzr Maxx) you're looking at daily recharges. 

SD card? Between my Skydrive, Dropbox and Box accounts I have 150 Gigs of online storage and phone comes with another 32 or 64 GB. With all of the Wifi networks around and unlimited data plans becoming more popular, I am not sure Is see any value in this. 

We're not even discussing how these devices feel in hand as I've not used wither. But HTC One X felt much nicer than S3 and I don't see how this will change.

One will feel better in hand and look cool, no contest about that. 

Galaxy s2 and Galaxy S were extremely durable phones. This is the first time I hear something like that for a s2 variant. You were just unlucky. S3 on the other hand is terrible. It is not the materials used, there was something wrong with the S3 design. They may have fixed it this time. 920 is godly in this area, but I'd expect nothing less since it is like 2 S4 duct taped together. Noika may manufacture another phone with the remaining materials.

SD card is very important for me. 32 and 64 GB phones are ripoffs. I always get the lowest storage possible and just insert an SD card. Much more storage at cheaper prices. I don't care about streaming, it is bad for the battery, it consumes a lot of data, doesn't work everywhere( like in a plane) etc.

One may be a better option for some, but don't act like s4 has nothing compared to it. It is so wrong.

Point taken. I think I am over-compensating for the fact that Galaxy S4 will get 10X+ the sales of HTC One while arguable being a worse phone.

Apparently its been revealed that the screen on the Samsung S4 is still pentile. While it doesn't make a big difference at that kind of PPi, its still dissapointing when you consider that the competition isn't using pentire arangements for their screens. Its esentially samsing cheating and giving users 1/2 the "true PPI" at 1080p.

Finally I must have been unlucky with the Samsung focus S which really cracked on me after an innocent fall of 3 feet maybe.
