Hi.
A change is as good as a rest so they say !
With the amount of idevices you have it does sound like your in Apples Eco System
You should do a little homework on how to add your contacts to software such as GMail for example.
Also on what to do with any music in your iTunes. It's all available on you tube and via google on the various ways of moving data over.
The only thing I will say about the S4 is the way up to half of the reported internal capacity is taken up with the specs it has ,and that some of it is partitioned off for future updates so 16gb drops to around 8gb.
Apart from that it's an awesome device.
If you haven't used it or android yet is suggest popping down to one of the high street shops to have a play around with one before you make the jump into changing.
I've just recently started field testing phones for O2 which to date has had the Android Os ,and found the change pretty easy and didn't have to adapt too much.
Enjoy the journey and perhaps update your thread on your choice.

The phone has a memory slot but take into account only certain media can be moved to it.
I've been a member of the forum for a while so myself and a few others were invited to take part in the device loan testing trial. Awesome is it not !
I currently have the Htc One Mini on trial and have had also the Sony Xperia Z.
This is the way I look at things.
If one always waited for what's new out around the corner then one wouldn't actually make a purchase at all.
I thought about the iPhone 6 before I purchase the iPhone 5s but then re considered as something new will always be hitting the market such is the fast paced industry this is.
I buy my iPhones sim free so I'm not Locked into a long term contract so it's a little different for me. If the phone you currently have is ok and your patient then play the waiting game.

Wait for the S5. The leaked specs and rumours suggest this will be one hell of a phone!!
My neighbour just changed from iPhone to a Samsung and I switched all her music and contacts across in under 15 mins. It's very simple to do. You can still set auto backups on Android in the same way as your iPhone backs up to the cloud and don't be concerned with storage. You can get upto a 128gb sd card in a Galaxy - Something iPhone owners can only dream of

Lol.
I mentioned the capacity as it's been an issue in the past for some and as I said not all can be moved to a sd card.
I do however agree a sad card would be nice in an iPhone for some. Personally I've never needed the extra storage for my own usage needs.

You can put anything on the sd card you like. The Galaxy range will play more music/video formats than you have got, so no worries.
I used Copytrans to get music off iPhone then sync'd it with GMusic.
Contacts sync'd to GMail.
Photos were just dragged & dropped on a laptop.
Re storage, apart from an SD card you can have as much cloud storage as you need through Google or Dropbox etc to safely store content that you can access at any time with a data connection. Only advisable to do so when on wifi though, esp if streaming music, movies etc.
