                          Inevitably then, rumors have begun to circulate on what Sammy has planned as a follow up. We've scoured the web to bring you the latest news, rumors and speculations about the Samsung Galaxy S4

Samsung Galaxy S4 – displaySamsung has confirmed it is working on flexible displays and rumours are already circulating that the Korean giant is planning to utilise this technology for the Galaxy S4. Flexible displays are "foldable, rollable, wearable and more, [and] will allow for a high degree of durability through their use of a plastic substrate that is thinner, lighter and more flexible than conventional LCD technology," a Samsung spokesperson told the BBC. The flexible OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) screen on the Galaxy S4 would also likely be Full HD with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 or higher and would be a full five inches across. Which is encroaching on Samsung Galaxy Note II territory. Source: BBC

Samsung Galaxy S4 – Specs  : According to Korean website Ddaily, the Samsung Galaxy S4 will arrive toting a quad-core Exynos processor built on the 28nm microarchitecture standard. Essentially, this is a smaller, faster Exynos (Samsung’s own custom processors) than is currently tucked away inside the Samsung Galaxy S3.


                              Newer processors, along with increased speed, focus on improving efficiency between cores. This should mean that the Samsung Galaxy S4 can boast more processes and a longer battery life than we’ve previously seen in a handheld. Other specs include a 13MP rear-facing camera and, of course, the aforementioned 1080p screen.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?"

We’ll keep you updated with any new Galaxy S4 shaped rumours that come to pass.
