Hasta La Gadget!

@Evleaks has been known to leak a number of devices in the past, which turn out to be completely true. But in this week’s case where they “leaked” a mystery Samsung smartphone, it turns out to be a false leak, according to SamMobile.

The image @Evleaks leaked was assumed to be a new Samsung product that might point to a new design for an upcoming Samsung device, but it turns out what they “leaked” was a Samsung Galaxy S4 developer prototype. SamMobile’s insider sent them an image of the prototype they just so happened to have on hand, and it seems to resemble the image of the device @Evleaks leaked. (more…)

The Samsung Galaxy S4 will be made available starting next week on T-Mobile and Sprint, with it expected to pop up on AT&T on April 30 and some time in May for Verizon, we’re sure you’re going to want to pick up an accessory or two when you purchase Samsung’s “next big thing.” We already highlighted some of the accessories that will be available to the Galaxy S4 last month, but Samsung has finally revealed what official accessories they’ll be making available for the device when it launches in the U.S.

The list Samsung released splits the Galaxy S4 accessories into two groups: Unique Accessories and Shared Accessories. The unique accessories set are completely unique to the Galaxy S4 and feature a flip cover in a seven different colors, the S View Flip Cover which allows you to view important information on your phone’s screen without needing to open the cover, a protective cover to protect the back and sides of the Galaxy S4, and a spare battery charging system.

Major carriers like T-Mobile and Sprint have announced that the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S4 will be available on their networks later this month, but if for whatever reason you’re not with any of the major carriers and have no plans of jumping ship, either because you get bad coverage in your area or if you don’t like their practices, how about US Cellular then? Yup, while not being one of the major carriers in the US, it looks like US Cellular will also offer up the Samsung Galaxy S4 and have launched a website where customers can place their pre-orders and have the device shipped to them later this month.

Unsurprisingly the price US Cellular is not too different from other carriers and they are charging $199 for the phone along with a two-year contract. However perhaps to help sweeten the deal, the carrier has announced that for customers who pre-order the phone online, they will be able to get themselves a free S View flip cover which is currently worth about $59.99, which isn’t too bad of a deal.

It looks like AT&T’s recent slip of casually announcing the availability of the Samsung Galaxy S4 on the device’s portal on their site may have started something as additional carriers are announcing the availability of the highly-anticipated smartphone on their network. T-Mobile is one of those carriers and is announcing they’ll have the Galaxy S4 starting on April 24.

Yes – that is exactly one week from today and yes, you’ll have the Galaxy S4 in your hand next week if you’re a T-Mobile customer. There’s a bit more to this story, so just hold down your excitement for a little bit longer while we get you through this. As you T-Mobile subscribers may already know, you guys don’t have to deal with silly contracts, which means you’ll be able to pick up the Galaxy S4 for just $149.99 due when you purchase it in addition to $20 monthly payments for 24 months.

AT&T was one of the first US carriers to announce the pre-order date for the Samsung GALAXY S 4, and customers on Ma Bell can now pre-order the new device directly from their website. As for when the carrier will begin shipping the smartphone, they list a date of April 30, which seems to be when the phone will become available in stores as well.

The 16GB model of the GALAXY S 4 will cost $199, which is quite lower than what AT&T previously mentioned last month, but we’ll certainly take it. If you’re wanting to get the phone off contract, you’ll have to pony up $639 for the privilege. However, it seems AT&T hasn’t yet listed the 32GB model on its website yet, but we should be seeing it soon, most likely at a price of $249 on contract.

The launch of the new phone will come just a couple weeks after the HTC One in the US on AT&T, which gives HTC the advantage in this case, allowing them to put more handsets in the set of buyers before Samsung can. However, we can only assume that the GALAXY S 4 will still be a big hit among avid Galaxy users.

The GALAXY S 4 sports a 5-inch display with a resolution of 1920×1080. The US version of the phone runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor clocked at an impressive 1.9GHz with 2GB of RAM. On the back there’s a 13MP camera with a 2600mAh battery right beneath that, which should be enough to keep you going all day. Check out our hands-on with the device to learn more.
