So apparently benchmark boosting in Samsungs has ended in their Android 4.4.2 update FWs, yet the funny part is that my S4 has been scoring the best scores it's ever had, almost hitting 29000, some at XDA are getting 30000 on the Octa without root, very intriguing.
Mine
AnTuTu
Quadrant
With the S5 not being what I wanted, I'm sticking with my trusty GS4 Octa until the Note 4 arrives later this year, luckily Android4.4 KitKat is the latest Android version around until later this year apparently, so not missing out on anything in the new phones announced at MWC, heck even the HEVC H.265 format that people are raving about in the new phones has been supported by the I9500 since last year. Just have to sit back now and hope we get some awesome real beasts in H2 2014 running on S805, Exynos 6 and Nvidia K1, the more I think about it the more I realise how epic H2 will be this year.

Managed to get myself an S4 Black Edition yesterday
Lovely phone which performs admirably even tho it is almost a year old. Got 4.4.2 the minute I fired it up
My little toy until the S5 arrives.

I really prefer that over the back of the S5, looks much more premium especially in black.

It's been a while since I've rundown my GS4's batt, so I decided to do it today. For a phone that is now almost a year old, battery seems to be still great:
Was suprised it managed to get 6hours Screen On time:
BB also seem to have made BBM a lot more frugal, usually its at the same point as Android System, and I used it quite a bit today including to share some media.
I wish smartphones could last a week with this usage.

6 hours !? what brightness did you have it on ? my S3 can run down its battery in less than three hours with brightness on automatic / medium. That is reading some white webpages though.

It was on Auto brightness as I was up and down all day so left the screen on Auto. I had used the phone throughout the day to Instagram, BBM, WhatsApp, Tweet, a couple of calls and a bunch of web browsing. I generally use Opera Mini to web browse so that may help, as i go in and out of WiFi, HDSPA+ and EDGE areas, it helps to use a browser that compresses data and keeps the browsing experience consistent no matter the connection.
