Yep it's an Android advertisement.

Time to talk about something else we've heard this argument lots.

This horse is dead beating it more won't change that fact.

If you buy a poorly made device ... While both crappy hardware and software versions are less prevalent today than they were in the past, they still exist

So, we are agreed that the S4 is a poorly made piece of crap?

But like any other product, why would you buy something you know nothing about?

In other words, before you buy an Android phone, you really have to ask if the thing "just works". Perhaps there's a checklist the buyer needs to bring with them when considering the device. I guess when they made the then high end S4, "just works" wasn't an expectation of the consumer, and therefore an unnecessary feature to include. But hey, with such great features as eyeball tracking and finger hover sensing, who could want anything more ;-)

The S5 is superb

I'm guessing this thing meets your definition of "just works". Have you inquired if it has a pretend gyroscope or a real one this time?
