Just a heads up people, not quite Note 2 related, but big news, don't agree with it myself, s4 would of been five, why copy iPhone with a number because it sounds outdated.
Even if this does happen, note 3 will still be called note 3.

No there is nothing like this at least known to us as of now.

There is a myth because there is no i9400 directly i9500.

Wont be able to prove it, but I'm sure it will be mentioned soon enough, the whole reason for this is to match iPhone with the number 5, which is pointless, what if iPhone new iPhone is called the 6, s4 should stay as it is. I hope I'm wrong about this.

This is absurd. Doing something like this would only show that Samsung is weak against Apple. It would be very stupid of them to name a flagship from S3 to S5.

I heard rumors on the internet without any source of information are always true. It's a fact.
-----
I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
I've heard this rumour before and there is some, while not conclusive, evidence to support that there is more to this than simply copying Apple.
In many parts of Asia (China, Japan, Korea) the number 4 is considered to be unlucky. It is known as Tetraphobia or the fear of the number four. It has to do with the way it is pronounced resembling the pronunciation of the word death.
In Korea they go to some lengths to avoid using 4 in places such as Hospitals (You won't find a fourth floor in many/any hospitals for example) and Apartment buildings and on transportation such as Aircraft and Railways (especially train carriages).
So, given all the success Samsung are currently having I think they may well want to avoid naming a device the S Death
Haha they might as well name it s death cuz thats what will happen anyways, sudden death

I think the roman numerals for 5(V) look better than the 4 anyway (IV) I also think (me personally) that the new Samsung phone well have a more solid feel to it, instead of cheap plastic touch, then this will be the same for the note 3,

Apple gave their competition a golden opportunity. If I had an iPhone 4 I would not walk out of a store using an upgrade on a phone that looks identical and basically is identical (OK don't flame but an upgraded camera and CPU/gpu isn't worth an upgrade)

The first round of commercials were better, it actually showed some of features of the phone. Still I like the fact that they are firing back at apple...the right and respectable way...not with frivolous lawsuits but through competition.

One of the metrics we are scored on is return rate. I've yet to return an iPhone for anything but a more expensive iPhone. I have definitely returned android devices (including the epic touch) for iPhones. I will give someone a fair discussion on whether they are really getting the right phone without resorting to android snobbery, but I ultimately have to look out for me and not get things returned.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Unless I get an Apple diehard with nothing but Apple products I can usually flop them to Android. More specifically the Epic Touch. Larger screen, expandable memory and showing them mine running all the rooted goodies. Plus, a lot of people don't like that you have to use iTunes.

Now if they just weren't so damn slow in updating this phone with ICS. Or at least releasing some drivers and such so devs could get it done.
I swore I would never own another Samsung after the vibrant due to how slow Samsung was on dropping source and such...I got sucked in one again and sit in the same position again as the vibrant lol.
Frustrating for such an amazing phone to once again be limited by Samsung.

We can't just sell the phone off, because it's defective and that would be considering scamming. I would love to get a refund or exchange but we are unable to do so even within warranty, as this problem "does not exist."
I said in another topic that my complaints are directed the both Samsung for making this ****ty phone and ignoring the obvious problem, and to the phone companies for ignoring the problem not allowing refunds or exchanges.

Are you freaking serious? So everything Samsung lets out of the factory is OK and everybody should be happy with the product they ship? Apple people and their fanboyism is starting to seem almost healthy compared to this. The phone costs a premium (at least in here) and I'd like to see premium production quality for my money. Unfortunately that is not the case. Samsung did address the issues in the GIII, but that doesn't fix it for the GN

Well cmon dude people are complaining about screen issues on refurb phones. The fact is, is that the nature of this amoled screen is that it loses its ability to display color over time. In some areas its more prominent because of the nav bar and keyboard being dark/black. Over time though this effect should even out across the screen. So, to the people *****ing about wanting a brand new one, guess what?? You're brand new one will look just like that refurb one!

AND you are going to contact customer service at vzw in which case they will then try to sell you something after reading your pointless email.
Seems like VERY effective marketing strategy to me.

Samsung rep stopped by my sprint store today and demod the s4...i experienced no lag, even throwing heavy tasks at it, and found no more bloatware than the note 2. there are certainly a few new additions like the s health and what not...but how can a few extra apps ever weigh down on a quad core + 2 gb of ram...those comments are bogus the s4 is as amazing as the note 2, minus the extra inch and the pen
I have been reading the same comments actually. I think the reaction is expected because everyone who is getting it is expecting it to be twice as good if not more than everything else out there. Expectations are just to high for that phone..
With that being said, I still might get it. I am just going to wait a few weeks to see what people are saying about it then. When people start to come back to reality.
