If you’re being cruel you could call them gimmicky bloatware. If you’re being very kind you could call Smart Scroll, Smart Pause, Air View and Air Gesture innovative. Samsung has made a number of tweaks and additions to the Galaxy S4 TouchWiz interface, the software layer that sits on top of Android.

In addition once you’ve used it for a while and added a host of apps the S4 does tend to suffer from some inconsistencies such as occasional jittery performance. It’s not a deal-breaker but many will find it a little clunkier than stock Android phones or iPhones, which seem to register actions quicker. Unfortunately there’s one issue with the Samsung interface and it’s that there is a split-second pause between pressing a icon, to make a call for example, and it actually initiating the process. Scrolling through menus is quick and smooth, with the only very occasional stutter occurring when something is updating while you’re trying to open an app at the same time.

Watching full HD video or intensive 3D gaming is a doddle, and browsing the internet or multi-tasking a breeze.

It doesn’t matter what you throw at the S4, it will guzzle it down and asked for seconds. While the 1.9GHz quad-core processor is no longer one of the fastest on the market it still gives the Galaxy S4 plenty of pep.

So with stiff competition out there can the Samsung Galaxy S4 still hold its head high and be called the best of the best? And how does it cope with the rigors of day-to-day life? It cost around £579 SIM-free at launch, but since dropping down the Galaxy pecking order it can now be picked up for just £250/$300. Since the Galaxy S6 has taken up the mantle as Samsung’s flagship model, the S4 has been further reduced in price. Other manufacturers have also pitched in with surprisingly great flagship phones, most notably the Sony Xperia Z2 and the great-value Nexus 5. Apple’s steamrollered on with the iPhone 5S and subsequently the iPhone 6, and the likes of the LG G3 and HTC One M8 and their successors have put up a worthy fight for Android. The competition at the top end of the market has been fierce. Two years since the S4 was released, it’s looking a little long in the tooth. The Samsung Galaxy S4 was one of the best phones of its day, but the mobile market is fast-moving and unforgiving.

While it hasn’t been the runaway success that Samsung anticipated, it’s still one of the best-selling flagship phones of all time and a worthy successor to the outstanding Galaxy S3. The Samsung Galaxy S4 was released as a high-end powerhouse back in 2013, but has since been superseded by the superb Galaxy S5, which was followed itself by the Galaxy S6.
