The South Korean Samsung did not want to take it to the Mobile World Congres 2013, reserving the exclusivity in attention for next March 14. We are talking about the Samsung Galaxy S4, the mobile with which the Asian manufacturer hopes to take another step in the success that since 2010 has been reaping with the Galaxy S family. Naturally, the company has not yet decided to offer details of what will be its new flagship, although rumors have long been drawing a more or less complete sketch that anticipates what we could find. Along these lines, the last that would have been known comes from a performance test published by the boys of theItalian blog Android Iani.
The new data further help shape what shut the Samsung Galaxy S4 technically, exposing a panel FullHD (1,920 x 1,080 pixels) of 4.99 inches and a main thirteen megapixel camera and a secondary on the front that will develop a 2.1 megapixel photo capture. So far, everything follows the script that has been written for a long time. However, it is the processor that raises the most unknowns, and the latest tests invite surprise. It seems that, despite the fact that in recent days this possibility had been ruled out, the Samsung Galaxy S4 will finally carry the new Exynos 5 OctaAlthough the eight-core unit "" at the rate of two quad-core chips "" will be faster than we think. Specifically, it would develop a frequency of no less than 1.8 GHz, which would seek to stand up to the Qualcomm 800 that we have seen in the HTC One.
On the other hand, the solvency of this Samsung Galaxy S4 would not only depend on the extremely powerful processor that will seek to overshadow the competition, but will also install two GB of RAM. And since we are talking about memory, it is assumed that we will see three models of this smartphone depending on the storage capacity that it integrates as standard. Thus, like its predecessor and still the first sword in the Samsung catalog, we would see three editions of 16, 32 and 64 GB. It is not yet clear if we would have the possibility of making memory expansions with the help of microSD cards, although if so ”” something that is almost taken for granted ”” the maximum compatible could be 64 GB, as with the last teams presented.
It is important to note that the Samsung Galaxy S4 would run from day one with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, which is the most recent version of Google's operating system. And not only that: the premiere of this terminal with said edition of the platform would be the starting gun for the Samsung Galaxy S3 to also catch up with its corresponding update, although for now there is no news about the time frame that would pass since the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the update of its predecessor with the latest from Google.
As for the connections, the Samsung Galaxy S4 would broadly present everything expected from a high-end terminal: Wi-Fi "" compatible with DLNA, All-Share, Wi-Fi Direct and Hotspot function "" systems, 3G, LTE, NFC, Bluetooth and microSD compatible with MHL, as well as GPS and regulatory headphone jack 3.5 mm. One of the points of greatest interest, the battery that the Samsung Galaxy S4 would have, still remains a mystery.
