Samsung 'might' free up space with update

The game called The Bards Tale requires 3.5 gig of space if you want the HD version, 1.8gig for the SD version, and it gives you the option to install to internal or external when installing it.

More large games need to do this.

The game lags and doesn't load fast when on the external.

Just tested The Bards Tale and no it doesn't lag at all, it's silky smooth on the S4.

Also the loading times are really quick on my sdcard, no idea what your talking about.
 
Those of us who do care about a removable battery and an SD card are in the minority folks, sorry to say it. I even get the feeling just based on he amount of public outcry that this may be the last major phone, or at least among the last generation of major phones that do get those two features.
I really hope you are wrong (but I wouldn't be surprised if you aren't).

Removable storage is good but only because it's cheaper than paying the high premium manufacturers (Apple, I'm thinking of you) charge for including extra memory. I never actually remove the SD card once it's in.

Being able to replace the battery is a really big deal for me. All my recent phones have struggled to see it through the day if I am using them much and being able to swap out the battery is a major advantage.
 
The lack of removable storage and battery are the primary reasons I would not consider the Nexus 4 or the HTC One. (The iPhone 5 has other limitations besides those two issues that turn me away)
 
If I were Samsung, I'd believe that the replaceable battery and sd card are just as much a part of what drove this profit outbreak as any other features and I'd keep them.

Anyway, they're safe for another year. :)
