I think it's A-TIV.

Actually it is ATIV SE.

-This is a big one. I had a WiQiQi charging pad for an S4. It goes inside the battery cover, attaching to two terminals and covering most of the battery, but it works with the factory back cover. Guess what? Works like a champ with the ATIV SE. So, for me at least, wireless charging is handled with no added expense (I think the cost when I bought it was $50 with the adapter and the pad). Cool... the cases for the S4 don't work, but this nifty wireless charging thing did...
How is the camera compared to the Nokia Icon?
Thanks
The camera on the Icon is better. No doubt. The difference between these phones may come down to, do you want a camera that can make phone calls, or a phone that can take decent pictures?

I am not a huge app user, but for anyone I've spoken to about switching to windows phone, this is the #1 concern. The OS itself runs beautifully and (for me) is a pleasure to use. unfortunately the app issue is a vicious circle. devs, retailers,banks etc, aren't likely to invest in app development for an OS that has a small market share but that same OS has problems gaining a larger market share without having a solid, robust app library. Damn.**UPDATE:**
So, after a week, I "think" the ATIV will be my device. I like the slimmer profile, and the camera is good enough for me. The wireless charging (with adapter) and SD card makes it an easier choice.
I'll tell you this, I don't see this phone drawing away any Android users. For the same money, you get an S5 with all the latest bells and whistles, and full app support. There will have to be a watershed moment where WP gets that app support, or something to generate buzz, to attract more people. As it stands, folks like me that just want out of the Google ecosystem are the only ones who are going to convert. This phone is a great "gateway" for someone coming over, but WP isn't there yet to ENTICE people to move over. The Icon was ALMOST there, but the lack of SD and Glance, and the two picture thing, made it less appealing to a generalized end user like me. Nokia has it's fan base, but so far that yields them less than 4% of the market.
Oh, FWIW, the single press of the Windows key lights up the screen, no fumbling for the power button. +Samsung.
