Another rumor for the next Samsung Galaxy S4. Target date of release, April 2013!

Samsung Galaxy S4 rumors point to April 2013 release | Cell Phones & Mobile Device Technology News & Updates | Geek.com

Without a doubt, the best selling Android phone of 2012 will be the Samsung Galaxy S3. And if there was a single Android phone to be seen as a direct competitor for the popularity of the iPhone, the Galaxy S3 would be it. As we wind down 2012 and prepare for another year of exciting gadgetry, it only seems logical that we would start to hear rumors regarding the release of Samsung’s Galaxy successor. Those rumors have begun to suggest an April release date and an impressive spec bump for the inevitable Galaxy S4.

A few months back it was reported that Samsung was planning to unveil the Samsung Galaxy S4 at Mobile World Congress in 2013. Given the intense popularity of the phone it seems unlikely that Samsung would do anything other than hold a dedicated event for their next flagship, but the idea that Samsung could announce early in 2013 didn’t seem too far off. On top of this, we reported on Samsung engineers crowdsourcing possible suggestions for features and hardware in the Galaxy S4 back in October. While it seemed likely that the phone was already well into the prototyping stages of build cycle, there was little question that Samsung was making sure we all knew what was coming.

What would a Galaxy S4 look like, given the explosive evolution in the smartphone world? Unsurprisingly, sources are claiming a 5-inch 1080p AMOLED with a quad-core, LTE-capable processor. A 13MP camera is also rumored for the phone, which no doubt means a 2.1MP or higher front-facing camera as well. This all falls in line with what has been released by Samsung’s competition since the release of the Galaxy S3, making the phone sound more like an incremental spec increase than a feat of engineering prowess and internal development. Samsung will more than likely build on some of the technology they flirted with in the Galaxy S3, like inductive charging and video streaming via DLNA or Miracast.

Despite having only released the Galaxy S3 in July of this year, Samsung is more than likely planning an early 2013 release of the Galaxy S4 in order to get a jump on the iPhone 5S. Apple has been rumored to also be planning an early 2013 release for their next phone, dramatically cutting the typical one year release cycle the company has had with the iPhone since its inception. Since the “S” versions of each iPhone are typically an incremental bump, it would appear that Samsung and Apple are battling to see who can release the next new phone just to get ahead of each other.
