Hello, S relations! Welcome to Top Shelf, a weekly show from The Verge that takes a deeper dive into the products and experiences of the technology that shapes our lives. Join David Pierce and a veritable gaggle of (mostly organic) friends as they showcase the best, brightest, craziest, and pixel-dense-iest from the consumer electronics industry.

This week, you’ll never guess. It’s time to talk about Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S4, and afterward we’ll be joined by Dan Siefert for a game of Android “hide and seek.”
