Samsung Galaxy S4

About to get rid of my iPhone 5 and get a Samsung Galaxy S4. Anyone have this phone and use it with the mini (non-connected, with HK/BT).

Thanks!

Because iPhones suck! Duh...
I have an S3 and it works just fine with my system. Of coarse I don't get some of the fancy bells and whistles you get with an iSheep err.. iPhone.

I have the S4...love it. Plugged it in once just to see how it worked....it was nice. song titles right on the screen in front of me. I dont do it often though because I already have nav and Sat radio in my paceman

speaking strictly from the phone side of this conversation...good choice.

Without starting a Android vs iOS war lol, I'm just going to say that I don't like the iPhones anymore. I've had them since the original launch and get the updated "S" model every year, tried the last two iOS 7 betas and just don't like the direction they are going with the phones. Having used my friends S3, S4 and HTC One, I really like what Android is bringing to the table. Still a massive Apple fanboy and will be extremely happy with my 24" iMac, 2 AppleTVs, original iPad and Macbook Pro, but as far as phones go just will go elsewhere.

Threads like this will always have two polarized sides. Me, I love my iPhone. I can't stand the counter intuitive UI and fragmentation of Android.

It's a shame there is the Android vs Apple war just like the Apple vs Windows war and most of the time you can't post about one without someone coming to the defense of the other. They are both GREAT operating systems and both have many pros and cons. The problem is people take it so personal. Like if someone says "I love my Samsung Galaxy S4 so much more then my iPhone" or visa-versa you might as well slapped their mother in the face by how they react. Why people really concern themselves what device someone else chooses and likes and to get emotional charged over it is beyond my comprehension.

All great points. Agreed, each to his/her own
