I am not surprised by blown speakers on the HTC One, they advertise it as a booming stereo but really they are still speakers that are less then an inch big. Most stereos use speakers bigger then phone speakers as tweeters NOT for BASS.
However I would love to have the front facing speakers. That is just about my only complaint with my nexus 4.
The first android phone I started with, the LG Optimus M used some sort of dual speaker, ear piece and speaker phone and I could always hear it, music or ringer or even speaker phone. Every phone I have had since has had the external speaker on the back and it is difficult to hear if your holding it with the screen facing you.
Your hand can and does muffle it and the sound is just going away from you.
And the nexus with it sitting on a surface the external speaker is very muffled.

Just browsing through here. I'm with shabby nothing says it is the s4. The LG spirit 4g is unique to metro and is exclusive to metro the last I checked. Who is to say that this isnt the Samsung relay from T-Mobile or the Samsung blaze metro or anything else for that matter.

Hi Punjab. I moved and merged your thread with the S4 thread in the Metro PCS forum. I think you can find your answer here.

Hahaha. I enjoy seeing about all these "secret" sources that claim to have un foreseen knowledge into the future.
I think there was about 20 different people who claimed to have had the correct info and release date with the S3.
But hey, I'm not saying stop by no means. I wanna see more. Makes me laugh.

Well I'm glad that I came across this site and with the recommendations of the members in the forum, I chose not to buy the LG Spirit and wait to see what MetroPCS will come out with. The S4 seems like a great phone and it will likely be the one I will get. I'm checking the site everyday to see what new info you all have.
Just to get an idea of what price the S4 might be at MetroPCS, did Metro sell the S3 at a lower price than other stores when they released it? If so, how much cheaper was the S3 at MetroPCS compared to the full price with other carriers?

Sounds like google will have the s4 out in middle of june, possibly a month before metro. Not that one month is really all the much time to worry about.
Also as long as its gsm, which it will be any unlocked phone will work just fine. They are not cdma any more they can not really block you from using any unlocked phone. Even AT&T wont do that and they are notorious for F'd up policy's.
Only one thing to remember by the time metro brought out the s3 it had been out on other carriers for months right? So you expect it would have decreased in price by then, newer and greater phones were making an appearance.
I really fail to see how metro could afford to subsidize a big chunk of the cost of the phone.
