One set of S4 vs Tegra 3: Android and Me
Another set: Droid life
Tegra 3 beats the S4 in a lot of things but I think the S4 is still a better design overall. May have to wait till for a little while before all my "must have" specs are met. By then the Exynos will have been out and properly benchmarked against the other two, and then we will see which is best.
The Ubuntu on android would be interesting, would be kind of cool to have a "full desktop experience" from a phone just by plugging it into some peripherals.
