Ubuntu Touch is currently in development.
As said in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install, stable releases are only for
Google's LG Nexus 4
Google's Samsung Galaxy Nexus
You can see on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices that you can build Ubuntu Touch for Samsung Galaxy S4, but :
- Sound is broken
- Camera is broken
- Cellular radio (call/sms) is broken
- Frequent freezes and random reboots occur.
So you could try Ubuntu Touch, but certainly not use it on daily bases.

Informations : wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch and forum.xda-developers.com . Ubuntu Touch was announced for "Nexus" devices since day 1. Other smartphones are not backed by Cannonical and are developed only by fan-developers. Jan 4, 2014 at 3:21
