After nearly three years I decided to update my phone. http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxys4/index.html

First time Heather and I will have the same phone model.......but different colours.

My sis in law just got one in the last day or two..........but S4 plan suited my budget.......and I doubt if I'd need to use more than the GPS, music, sms and calls and maybe as a hotspot for the laptop when I might need to use when on the road.

Good phone Alan,, i still get around with my S2 which works a treat, probably elbow it when it craps out then go and buy an S2 again. Dont like how the phones have become the size of half a laptop. All personal choice though......................... :wht11

Sis in law asked me yesterday why I don't use the phone for Facebook etc. I told her the phone is to small, I need a proper keyboard. It's bad enough on the phone when I need to send a text; I keep hitting the wrong letter.

I had an S4 and loved the camera, but everything else I found difficult coming from 2 iPhones. I tripped and fell while running a few months ago and smashed the S4 and it couldn't be repaired.

So now a new iPhone is back in my hands and it's great  :thumbsup

This will be my second Samsung phone and I had Nokia before that but found Samsung fairly easy to work out. The only Apple thing we have is a 64GB Ipod which hardly gets used.

The phone arrived Thursday. Quick too. Our local Toll courier had it that morning after it being sent from Melbourne midday on Wednesday.

I activated on Friday at 11am and advised it would take three hours (porting number) and I rang them at about 5pm asking what the delay was. All sorted and service active within 15 minutes.

Transferred Sygic GPS from the Tab  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sygic.aura&hl=en

Added the Emergency one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.threesixtyentertainment.nesn&hl=en and Bike space parking https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.mcnetwork.motoscooterparking&hl=en

I reformatted the 4GB micro SD card from my previous phone and loaded some music (about 370 songs), transferred a few photo's for the wallpaper and phone paired with the intercom.
