Samsung Galaxy S4 Variants Make An Appearance

Samsung Galaxy S4 Variants Make An AppearanceSamsung knows that they have quite the winner on their hands with the Samsung Galaxy S4, and you know what they say – if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Well, Samsung does seem to have plans to expand the Galaxy S4 family with a trio of new models, namely the Galaxy S4 Mini, the Galaxy S4 Active, and the Galaxy S4 Zoom. Of course, do bear in mind that these are similar in terms of branding to the Galaxy S4, but chances are pretty high that whatever you find underneath the hood would be different from the actual flagship model. It is somewhat like the Galaxy S3 Mini, where it is not just a smaller Galaxy S3, despite sharing similar physical characteristics, albeit with a familiar brand attached to it.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is set to be released sometime in the 23rd week of the year (namely June 3-9), with a white version in tow to boot. In week 29 (that would be July 15-21), there will be a minimum of three more models arriving, namely the Metallic Orange Galaxy S4 Active as well as the Galaxy S4 Mini, where the latter would arrive in both white and black shades.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom With 16MP Camera Rumored To Be In The Works

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom With 16MP Camera Rumored To Be In The WorksSamsung currently has cameras that are powered by Android, but what about an Android phone with a powerful camera? Well according to the folks at SamMobile, they claim that according to their sources, they have been tipped off that Samsung’s camera Android phone will be called the Galaxy S4 Zoom. This device will allegedly sport a 16MP sensor which is about 3MP larger than the Galaxy S4, which coincidentally is the same size as the Galaxy Camera device they revealed in IFA last year.

According to the alleged specs, the Galaxy S4 Zoom will sport a 4.3” qHD display, 8GB of internal storage with support for microSD card for memory expansion, and will run on Android 4.x Jelly Bean. Processor specs remain unknown, but given the trend in the industry these days, assuming dual or quad-core would be a safe bet. SamMobile claims that the Galaxy S4 Zoom will be announced before the summer of 2013. For those who sat out on the Galaxy Camera because it didn’t have calling capabilities, we guess this device, if true, could be for you, but take it with a grain of salt for now.
