New leaked photos claim to be the new Samsung Galaxy S4. "A Chinese forum has published [sic] plethora of pictures of the Samsung Galaxy S IV Duos GT-I9502," writes SamMobile.
It's possible the phone in the pictures is simply one of several prototypes given to developers ahead of the official launch.
"These are the first ever leaked images of the Galaxy S IV, but keep in mind that these images could be of a prototype of the device. Last year, Samsung produced 3-4 different prototypes of the Galaxy S III and then gave them to their partners for testing purposes but at the launch itself the device looked entirely different. We do know that there are almost 4-5 different prototypes of the Galaxy S IV all around the world, this could be one of them."
As expected if the phone in the photos really is the Galaxy S IV, it features a 5-inch full HD AMOLED screen, an eight-core Exynos 5 processor developed by Samsung in-house, 2 GB of RAM and Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean.
Earlier reports said the Galaxy S IV would be made out of plastic like its predecessor the Galaxy S III, and it looks like that's mostly true, but the sides of the pictured device appear to be made out of metal, maybe aluminum.
The Samsung Galaxy S IV will be revealed at a huge launch event in New York's Times Square on Mar. 14. Samsung's flagship phone is expected to feature a quad-core processor, 2 GB of RAM, a 4.99-inch Full HD AMOLED display, a 13 megapixel camera with 1080p HD video and come with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
