I hope the call quality on this phone has been improved as compared to the S4. I sold my S4 and went with the BlackBerry Q10, the call quality on the BlackBerry is amazing. It really is miles ahead of the S4.
I also don't understand people's fascination with Android. After getting the hang of BB10 I am in a position to say that it is better than Android and this is still in its infancy.
Happy to hear that you are enjoying BB10. However I am unsure why you want to reinforce that BB10 is better than Android? Sounds like it is working better for you which is great however your needs /preferences doesn't translate in everyone else's preference
Btw no call quality issues while I used S4 and the same stands for my current Note 3

I am not going to lump everyone in the same basket. I am firm believer in "different strokes for different folks", it is just that it is very difficult for me when people who have never used a particular OS knock it.
I have been on both sides and I am more than happy on BlackBerry's side.
The more choices the better for everyone else. I have the same apps I had when I had the S4 with the exception of one. None of those apps are sideloaded, by the way.
As for the call quality of the S4 I found it to be of poor quality. I tested that with different S4s and the results were the same. It sounded like someone was speaking from a hole. None of those issues with my Q10.
Another issue with the Samsung was it's ability to hold and retain a signal, it was so inconsistent that it frustrated the he'll out of me.
All of those issues have disappeared with the BlackBerry. Like you say if it works for you then good for you.

Can I ask how is this possible since Play store is not available for BB10?

Ooops! Wrong choice of words. I meant the apps that did the same thing as on the S4. You can actually install Android apps by using a few methods. One of those is installing the Amazon app store and downloading the Android apps from there.

I always found the GS3 better for reception than the GS4. The GS4 often was poor travelling around but found the call quality ok. Has anyone used the GS5's Wi Fi/Network download at same time feature??

I am not joking.. the GS5 takes decent photos and it can compete with the Z2/1520 without a problem.

To be honest I see the Galaxy S5 as more of a Galaxy S4S not that much of an upgrade in my view.
But then, the M8 isn't much of an improvement over the HTC One (2013) - if not a step backwards (imo)
So is the Z2, its not much different from the Z1, or Z for that matter.
I could go on for much longer. All of Nokia's Lumia devices are all but similar apart from a few key selling points. Then theres Apple. Also I disagree about the S5's looks, its much better looking than the S3 & S4 imo, they were rounded and not very appealing compared to the brilliant designs of competitors. Remember the designed for humans nonsense ? You seem to be doing a lot of moaning, and as you told me once, stop moaning !

You see I don't think I do, I think im just much more of a realist than most people. I tend to say things how they are, not what other people want to hear. My friends, colleagues and peers have always complimented me for being honest and if I have something to say I say it to peoples faces and not behind their back. So i'll take that as a compliment.
You said you didn't like the S4 design last year, as did many, so this year Samsung made the phone a little squarer, a little more premium and still people say they don't like it and that its worse - which you've said. But its what people asked for, yet they are still unhappy. I can see Samsung didn't go down the metal / glass route, but based on what people said about the S4 this phone is an improvement is it not ?

Can you also give some arguments about not much different?
