Ahead of tomorrow’s official launch, more Samsung Galaxy S4 cases have leaked, seemingly showing the upcoming flagship’s design outline.
Previous leaked cases showed the Samsung Galaxy S4 could have a far chunkier and squarer design than the Samsung Galaxy S3, but the latest batch of cases show this could not be true.
Coming courtesy of Mobile Fun, the picture show the Samsung Galaxy S4’s shape will be far more similar to the current Samsung Galaxy S3 design, just a bit taller to encompass the S4’s bigger screen.
The cases reveal the flash will be located below the camera, rather than to the side, and the speaker located on the rear of the device, offset near the bottom. The headphone jack and microUSB port are still in their standard positions at the top and bottom of the device respectively, and the volume and lock buttons on either side of the handset.
From the looks of it, the Samsung Galaxy S4 will be fairly thin too, perhaps along the lines of the Sony Xperia Z or iPhone 5.
Samsung Galaxy S4 Rumours
The Samsung Galaxy S4 is due to be officially unveiled at a dedicated Samsung Unpacked event tomorrow in New York’s Time Square. Heavily rumoured to pack a 4.99-inch Full 1080p display and the Samsung Exynos 5 eight-core processor unveiled at CES 2013 with 2GB of RAM.
A 13-megapixel camera should feature in the rear of the device, whilst a 2-megapixel snapper in the front should offer the new Smart Scroll and Smart Pause technology. The latter allows the handsets to pause a video, should the user happen to look away for any reason. Smart Scroll should see the handset automatically scroll down the page as a user reads the text or reaches the end of the displayed content.
The most recent leaked benchmarks also suggest the upcoming flagship could play host to a Qualcomm Adreno 320 GPU, akin to that offered by the Google Nexus 4 and Sony Xperia Z.
TrustedReviews will be at the official Samsung Galaxy S4 launch, so prepare to see the official S4 specs sheet and design revealed tomorrow.
