Well, they are, but not a full scale release.

There's an updated version which will be released (apparently) in South Korea, with the updated SoC and faster LTE modem. This will be similar to the upgraded S5 (and various other phones) that were released in Korea but never saw any presence in other countries.
 
Received the official N4 Samsung case today with the blue backing. Have to admit this is way less bulkier than my Spigen Slim Armour. Protection is obviously much less than the Spigen though but I love it.

What's it like around the edges of the screen? Much of a lip?
 
Has anyone else had an issue with this phone where it will suddenly start to lag like the gpu is stuck at a lower clock speed and when you scroll through the home screens it looks like its suddenly gone from smooth to like a laggy 5fps or something.

I keep getting this now and then. You can fix it by turning off the screen and then turning back on again but it gets a little annoying/
 
I have been having issues with my battery life and one thing I would like to do is flash a stock rom to get rid of all the Vodafone bloat on the device.

Will this affect my warranty on the phone? I have heard stories about some sort of e-fuse on the device.

Do I need to root to do this? I want to be able to ideally get direct OTA updates from Samsung. If I flash will I lose the data currently on the phone?

Not sure if I'm allowed to mention other companies here? It's a well known phone accessory online store.

There is a lip on the front as well as the back where the camera is. I did find ONE flaw (if you could even call it that) though vs my Spigen Slim Armour - the sides of the case, the lip if you will is very easy to push to one side with your fingers. This means that dirt/muck etc can easily work its way in there if the phone is in a pocket. Should these bits abrase against the sides of your phone...

The Slim Armour gets around this by having a removable hard plastic shell that covers the TPU portion of the case. See the final picture, which is my Slim Armour.

Sorry about the pictures. My room has poor lighting and I'm in a rush as I'm heading out.

It is a very nice case and if those side lips weren't so easily movable then it would be my daily piece of protection. For now I'll stick to the bulkier, yet more protective slim armour. The last thing I want to do is blow money on finding the perfect case. The case btw was £24.99.
 
I've been using mine naked since I got it last month and it almost had it's first drop today.
Woke up, still sleepy picked it up with my right hand and it feel straight out of it but caught it with my left hand, ooooooof! Panic moment :D

Looking at the Lollipop performance on the Note 3 I can't wait but it to hit the 4.

loved Lollipop on my Nexus 5.
 
is the s view official case worth getting? my only concern is the fact theres no latch to lock the case. Does this make it annoying that it can flip open at any moment?
 
Anyone used the Diztronic case for the N4? Got one for my N3 and used one on my S3 and love them, figure it'd be a good case to point out for anyone looking for here.
