Samsung Galaxy S4 – release date
Update 07/02/13: A new rumour reported to Sammobile from a "trusted insider" at Samsung pegs the Galaxy S4 release for March 15, 2013. Apparently, the handset will then go on sale in the second week of April, with Europe getting first dibs.
We originally had our rumourscope centred on a snifter of the Samsung Galaxy S4 at the Mobile World Congress trade show in Barcelona in February – but that admittedly is far too tight a timeline for a new flagship device.
The Korean Times reported that Samsung was planning to unveil the Galaxy S4 in March, but the higher-ups at Samsung took to Twitter to shoot down that particular rumour themselves.
Translated from Korean, the tweet read: "Please note that some media reported speculation that the Galaxy S subsequent models will be released is a simple rumor is not true. [If] not doing anything, why spread these rumors?"
Despite this protestation, we imagine a mid-2013 release date isn’t far off the mark. The Samsung Galaxy S3 was revealed in May, so it’s reasonable to assume Samsung will follow the same pattern with the next generation. That would allow it to steal a march on a possible iPhone 5S.
We’ll keep you updated with any new Galaxy S4 shaped rumours that come to pass. But in the meantime you can fill up your Samsung cravings with our Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Mini and Samsung Galaxy Note 2 reviews.
