Bros... I'm sick right now. Just broke the screen on my GS4.
What are my options? I don't think I paid for that fugazzi seeming verizon insurance either.
just curious, did you have a case on it?

I paid $180 to get my s3 screen repaired. 
it's apparently cause the glass is glued to the digitizer or something. I sent it directly to Samsung. local shops were charging even more.
there are ways to do it yourself by slowly melting the glue with a blow dryer or heat gun and peeling the glass off. if you have tools, patience, and skilled hands, it may be worth trying. not 100% sure it'll work for the s4 though. and a lot of people ruined their phone trying it.

I'm losing interest with Samsung with all these gimmicks. I have a s3 and I don't even use all the features that the phone has. Smh.

Samsung is one of the major phone makers who still has removable batteries.
As long as they Samsung keeps making Google Play Editions I will be happy.

Gimmicks are whatever I just want a lagless phone to make it through a day. Seems like the N3 can do that.

Popped up in the Play store a few hours ago then was pulled down.

In other news, held the Moto X for the first time ever while hitting up the local Best Buy for a microwave; I like it. I like it a lot.
Anyone here own it?

Is it just me or does it feel exactly like the Gnex

I rooted mine within 3 days of owning it. Been rocking stock ever since. Considering actually getting a TouchWiz ROM though to use that Multi-Window feature. How useful do you actually find that to be?

@ af1 1982 - similar rubbery back, but a slimmer, more compact frame. These thin bezels (the X, and next up, the Nexus 5) are going to be nice...I'm all for the larger screen in a manageable form factor.

I can't wait for the smartwatch that uses that flexible screen. I imagine it as a Nike fuelband but the entire band is a screen.

How is the Nexus 4? The 5 looks definitely promising.

I have a N4, and save for the camera (pictures are washed out and dull, but can work with a little bit of editing), I love it. Awesome phone.
I just bought mine a few months back and I'm thinking, at that price, I may cop the 5 as well. Hopefully, this time they get the optics right.
