So sad about dropping the SD card slot. Paying outrageous prices for extra (cheap) memory makes me crazy. Less of an issue for me on phones, but deal breaker on tablets for me. The non-removable battery creating planned obsolescence is just screwing consumers. It's why I abandoned the iPhone back at version 2. Bummed to hear Samsung is following suit.
I have no problems with a glass back, as I will have a case on it anyway. I know I know, why buy a case to cover a beautiful phone? I am clumsy, that's why.
The price will go down in 4 -6 months, so no worries there.
Touchwiz could be a thing of the past, if I could root the thing and just put my plain vanilla Android on it, or even Xposed.
XPOSED. !!!!
Bottom headphone jack was good when I used my Galaxy Nexus. It's how I put my phone in my pocket, top down. However, since I use bluetooth headphones now, it's a non issue.
TouchWiz and Samsung hardware design are NOT what keeps me from going to the darkside. I'm not an Android user because it's like iOS...I'm a vanilla Android user because it's NOT like iOS.

LoL I hope not! But, I will say that the elements may be similar, but their implementation and user experiences are VERY different between them. My thing is that they shouldn't try to be Apple-like, that's just a reason to go an by an Apple product.
When I look at it closely, it's kind of innovation on the get-go. It's something new and a little bit awkward having used to the convenience of an SD card, but yea, Sammy has more spices/ superb specs but got beaten by iPhone's beautiful aesthetics. At least now, they're living up to the challenge..
