Samsung Galaxy S4 - First impression when compared to the HTC one - Giga.de

On Friday last week was my own Samsung Galaxy S4 in the newsroom. I have used a good deal of Sparhandy, we also reported on it. After several days of intense (!), I would like to use my first thoughts on the device will now share with you.

One thing is certain, the first impression when you take the device in your hand is, “That’s not so bad.” The wow effect that HTC has created with the One for me, but will probably not trigger another Android smartphone in me this year. Nevertheless, Samsung has developed the S4 neat, evolution instead of revolution probably best describes it.


Samsung Galaxy Feature

 S4 toggle I make no secret of it: I am an absolute fan HTC One But I also bought last year, the Galaxy S3, and was to One of convincing to my Samsung device. I modify my smartphone like and get lots of new features with Custom Roms. Most of the innovations were not mature, but the play instinct in me was satisfied.

was not the first time this need concluded with the HTC one. The software was fast, beautiful and functional. Everyday life could be easily disputed with the device and some media features (Zoe HTC, HTC highlight) put the icing dar.

course there are plenty of reasons to complain about this one, but the whole package is simply for my needs.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 I’m for the first time absolutely overwhelmed with the amount of features . An average Joe consumer might not have this problem because you put “everything skips”. But as an editor, who wants to deal directly with the new features, but kills a sheer variety.

AirView, Smart Stay, S Beam, Smart Scroll, Air Gesture, smart pause, multi-window, smart rotation, S Travel, WatchON, S Translator, story album, S Voice, Smart Photo Cewe, S Health, SMART SMART SMART.

Until we have here presented at GIGA all features and can show everything you can do with the S4, probably already start to the first rumors about the Galaxy S5 bet? Most galling of all these great new features: I have a feeling that many have not yet been fully developed

.

software seems somehow unfinished

Samsung S View is such an example. Texts and / or web pages scroll automatically when you move the eye in the appropriate direction. In the first test, a nice gimmick, after a few moments scrolls the contents, although I just have to stay on a word. Or do I have to move the entire head to scroll up or down. Air View only works with Samsung’s own services. The first is understandable, since other apps must implement this function, yet confusing.

Do not get me wrong, Air View works impressively well with e-mail and SMS. Unfortunately, the display is also set so sensitive that I often activate this preview without wanting to use them. Smart break is nice, but unfortunately the automatic does not always work reliably. in 6 of 10 cases , the S4 has not pause the video when I looked away. If it worked, sometimes not until a few seconds after I had been turned upside down.

 Samsung Galaxy S4 - Air View

If you want to open the album, increased the S4 with its quad-core Snapdragon 600 even for a few seconds . Initially, even Picasa and other online services are included and displayed, this can be switched off in the settings. But if you want about different apps to access the gallery, for example, to share a photo showing all possible albums yet. This can, depending on their use of Dropbox, Facebook and Picasa are really annoying.

General

seems 2 to be something fully loaded Samsung Nature UX, because micro stuttering and even larger trailer in the launcher (not only) happened to me. Sure, the HTC one is affected times. However, in comparison I see more impurities the S4, the One runs as simply felt round.


Galaxy S4 invites you to modify a

While I would be the HTC one almost exactly like it is, I want the Galaxy S4 switch the launcher and replace the keyboard. Immediately. No other keyboard is impractical as the stock solution from Samsung . While I am of the opinion that this is a matter of taste, but I also agree with many fellow bloggers. 60% of my texts written I had to write again because of errors.

The spacebar is too small for fast typing the phone does not respond quickly enough or meet basically the wrong letter and a mistake. The HTC one because unfortunately has the same problems as the vibrator module is not always as quickly afterwards, for fast typists so impractical.

display and camera are insanely good

But I do not want to just complain. Samsung has their own services overhauled completely and thus offers an amazingly beautiful surface. Health S looks great , the Samsung hub apps and media services while greatly affects of Windows Phone – let’s say – “inspired”, but it’s a nice solution. The new resort in the settings I consider useful. While we have always had to scroll forever, Samsung sorted by “Connections / device / account / More” and lists its options on there. Getting used to, but good!

 Samsung Galaxy S4 vs. HTC One Display

showpiece of the S4 in my opinion, camera and display. While the display is the S4 in warm weather to its knees faster than the HTC one (and is also still an ugly, colorful lights represent), but a full HD AMOLED display, the colors pretty damn strong dar.

So intense that some are already talking about “exaggerated colorful” of. In the end it is a matter of taste, but compared with the Galaxy S4 affects the display of the HTC One almost bland, washed out.

The camera takes amazing photos and good times just makes me all the hitherto available smartphones in the shade. This camera would have done well the HTC one. Samsung has definitely delivered a gem here and completely convincing. You will not find all the features in the camera app and I still do not quite know how the function will now start, simply just to the short test time. I hope.


vs. Samsung Galaxy S4. HTC One Design

Both units have own complete design and appeal to different buyers. Does the market still good, but next year all serious competitor from Samsung should beware. During the first impression of the S4 is still quite pleasant, fall in with the design time on, more and more unnecessary disagreements . The speakers are really good, sound compared to HTC’s booming sound but tinny and shrill. Moreover, they are back, which is somewhat impractical. The chrome frame is brushed in places and times polished, a clear line can be seen here though, but why the brushed / textured is not maintained consistently, is strange.

  • Conclusion

    course we move here in the ANDROID editorial Grump us on a level that has actually been naughty. The Galaxy S4 is a really very good smartphone, but unfortunately has many small and annoying bugs that still holds true to correct it. However, if Samsung ever nachbessert these features or new features have been developed simply to written in the stars. So far, many unfinished works on me, and not just a 600 € device worthy.

     Samsung Galaxy S4 vs. HTC One

    Samsung makes the competition offers enough space to catch up and in my opinion not enough to be raised by a Galaxy S3. Who has an S2, which is however recommendable without the S4. Not predict whom all these gadgets, the Sony Xperia Z or the HTC one should look at times. So far me, the S4 has certainly not yet convinced, but that can still change. Our unboxing to S4 can be found here, BTW: unboxing how to rootet the Galaxy S4, I’ve already explained in a manual

    .

    One vs. HTC. Samsung Galaxy S4. After 3 days of continuous use, I am really happy with the camera of the S4, but the rest is nice-to-have deactivated quickly. So far the HTC one has in my opinion the better overall package.
