Problem?
The HTC 8X is a better deal I think.
What as the iPhone price got to do with it? Why should a Windows phone have to be cheaper than an iPhone when the iphone has less features. Take for example the Nokia 920 with
1. Higher Resolution Screen
2. Bigger Screen
3. Higher ppi screen with superior performance outdoors.
4. NFC
5. Optical Image stabilization.
6. f2.0 Lens.
7. Wireless charging
8. Sensitive touch screen that can be used whilst wearing standard gloves.
9. More robust chassis and screen.
And in my opinion much better OS but that is probably more a matter of personal taste.

Check some reviews - the ones i read said it was painted plastic

Read the official Samsung page then. It's Metal. Samsung ATIV S
agreed.
A good phone and a competitive price for it.
I may consider voting hot if i could walk into my highsteet and just pick it up for that price
