Great phone!. Easy to use. LOVES to drain the battery quickly. Had to modify what apps had priority etc. initially. Setting it up on the Straight Talk network (APN settings) was a little cumbersome ( I blame my lack of knowledge with that techy stuff) but there are a ton of websites/youtube videos out there that really helped to do it easily. Once the settings were complete, this phone functions great. Bought a better battery for longer talk time and web surfing etc. Always been a Galaxy fan, and they just keep getting better and better.

The phone works but is very quirky. For example, every third time I text, it changes the font size. Case is very used appearing. I wont order a refurbished phone again. Operates like an old phone. Not happy, this is the first negative review I have given :(

The Samsung Galaxy S4 Active is a great value. The most important feature for me was battery life. My old phone barely made it through the day on a good day while the Galaxy S4 always gets me into the next day. Also the battery lasts for days on standby. I purchased the Active model because I am afraid of getting my phone die because of getting wet. So far I haven't tested that feature.The phone upgraded to Android KitKat 4.4.2 shortly after I received it. It works quickly and smoothly with any app that I have thrown at it. It has only 16GB of storage, but I upgraded it by adding a 32GB SD card. The screen is sharp and reproduces color well. The screen is visible in daylight, which is a big plus for me as I use the phone in the field fairly often.
Slightly smaller than the S5 Active, so fits most of my pockets. When dropped, the back cover and battery will pop out. Have to always check to make sure back cover and plug cover are tightly in place. But that's the price of convenience over a permanent sealed unit. Other than that, it works fine.

The S4 Active is fantastic! It does exactly what I need it to do in a fast and easy fashion. It's durable and although I am not an athlete, I lead a busy life and this little phone keeps up. I have very small hands, so large-size phones are cumbersome and difficult for me to use with one hand. Not this one! I had an S4 Mini which seemed custom-made for me and this is just as good. The only drawback I can see is the battery life. A longer-lasting battery would have made it perfect. I had my choices of phones, but chose to stay with the S4 series because it has the works of the larger phones without all the bulk.
