What are the features you think the Samsung Galaxy S4 would have

and the features you would like to see and or have...

Like I said I really hope they do it waterproof keeping it real thin and nice...
Gorilla Glass 3 were my girlfriend can throw the phone at me and it wont break and it hurts like the Nokia....
 
1080p SAMOLED+

Eventually, though, I think the SAMOLED+ screen will be built on the inside surface of the Gorilla Glass (3?). I've heard manufacturers are getting displays closer to the surface, so how much closer can it get?

I would imagine LTE radios will continually become more efficient, so we'll see even better battery life for a given battery's capacity. And I'm not sure if Voice Over LTE is more of a carrier or manufacturer feature, but at some point VoLTE will turn voice into data.

That's about all I've got, since I'm not visionary like that.

VoLTE is already built in the Verizon LTE network and the Sprint network is building the same HDvoice in the network and the S3 supports it.
Also as a matter of Voice over data standard it will always run on 3G but can bump to the 4G side if signal is right

We probably need to start a GS4 sub forum for this.

I need the GS4 to be no more than 5mm thick, have a quad core 1.7ghz processor with 2+ gb of RAM and it should have a 5+ inch screen with an ultra-thin bezel. The skin should be a flexible rubberized something so I have no need to use a case. And the screen should be unbreakable. This phone should also be running pure Android.

maybe this is the GS6...

Well, I haven't even laid eyes on a real S3 yet, so this is purely speculation so here goes. Given what I've heard about the power of this unit, I can't really imagine that I'll be wanting more of that in the S4. IMO, it's about time for "the future" to finally get here. Ultra-high res screen, SUPER thin and light, week long battery life, super solid construction. For me, I don't see how much biggerbetterfastermore the devices themselves can get, I want them to fade into the background of my life so I have to pay less attention to them.

I was right with you until you said 4.5 display....


Maybe a 5.4" display ;) (a solid 5" would be wonderful though)

Then that means the Gnote has to go bye bye unless they make it a complete tablet out of it and uses the mobile network data which then will make carriers follow and have (Sprint) make us a tablet with unlimited dataaaa xD

Here's hoping the GS3 is truly future-proofed and we'll still be happy with the phone in 2 years when we have to "willingly" give it up for a new phone.

Im selling my GS3 on April activate my old Evo wait patiently for the GS4 if any in the future and buy it with the money i use from GS3

I would like to see:
A 1080p screen (not that I'll be able to notice much of a diffrence but just for the sake of it.)
Better battery life
A metal case (Its cheaper to glue a magnet to your car than get a carkit)
Wireless charger (as was speculated for the s3)
A faster CPU and GPU (I would love to be able to play classic computer games on it.)
And that's about it.
