BYE BYE SAMSUNG.
You will just show what is so called a phone with super craziness and overcome screen size.

i gotta agree with you peter98 samsung thinks that the bigger a phone is the better it is............is not 4.8 inches already big enough? they need to start making premium phone designs first before they go ahead and make another galaxy s phone with MONSTER SPECS and features.......because those things only appeal to a certain crop in the field.....lolz

you gotta have BEAUTY AND POWER........nuff said

What if the galaxy s4 has a 5" screen but in the same body size as the gs3.. It could be done as Samsung can easily shrink the bezels on the s3 to allow a 5" screen... Happy with the size of my s3 and I hope they don't get any bigger in phone size... Motorola just showed that a 4.3" screen in a 4" size phone so it's totally possible to see a 5" screen on a device the size of the s3..If you have an s3 you will see what I mean as there is plenty of bezel that can be made smaller to add a larger screen.

5 inch is really at the line already. 4.7-4.8" is the sweet spot. so whats next 5.3 like the galaxy note 1

I personally think they should keep the Galaxy S line small and go overboard for the big screen people with the Note line. 5 inches on the IV? That's kinda ridiculous.

Just wait and see. The Note II has a larger screen than the og Note, but the size is the same. Bet it is the same with the Galaxy SII line. Bigger screen, less bezel, same size overall.

Remember these are just rumors, anyway.

I think a 5 inch screen would be great as long as the phones footprint didnt increase.

i bet that the samsung galaxy s4 will have a real edge to edge design
with kevlar or keramic
and it will be the same size as the s3 or even smaler! i bet!

1080p flexible screen and it will be thinner then the iphone 5!

exynos 5250 2 ghz

13mpx camer with samsung sensor

2 gb ram or 2,5

They said next big thing is already here. I do not understand why they going to replace innovative big thing within six month. May be they realized this isn't big enough.

Ha ha .. LoL .. It makes me laugh buddy . Nice comment !! Poor Samsung !!

Not only do I think the galaxy s 4 won't be released untill about a year after the s3 but I am sure that the final design and hardware choices have not been decided on. They should release the s line once a year and the galaxy nexus line in the middle of thos launches like how the winter and Sumer Olympics do it

30. XPERIA-KNIGHT posted on 17 Sep 2012, 05:02 2 1

whats the galaxy s4 gonna have that the note 2 wont have tho?

jus a question

32. Droid_X_Doug posted on 17 Sep 2012, 05:20 5 0

IDK. Maybe the GS IV gets better GPU? Maybe better battery tech? And then there is always the Note III....

Technology marches on.

Keep in mind that this could be a total lie to deter off iPhone 5 sales.

I call shenanigans on it.

I expect it to be a dual core A15 Exynos5.. clocked around 1.5ghz or a lil more. Its not going to be another quad A9 exynos. Fat chance its a exynos5 quad either.

Probably a faster processor and better camera. Some will like the smaller size. You do have a point though, maybe those specs are good enough? My Galaxy SIII already does everything I need.

I still dont get how flexible screen is so amazing. I dont even want to bend my phone.

19. sadaivadai posted on 17 Sep 2012, 04:18 7 1

I dont want it to bend too ... But the screen won't break easily if it uses flexible screen ..

68. starandmountain posted on 17 Sep 2012, 13:47 0 0

yeah, it's like a high skyscraper, they are not stif, but they move with the ground. far more innovatif than make it as stif as possible! :)

It's not to blend our phone...but the screen will never broke due to it's flexibly...and oled screen said to consume less power...and no need of gorilla screen will result in a thinner and lighter phone.......

@ sadaivadai

It's said to have some external changes but will maintain the same rectangle with rounded corners shape....

62. doejon posted on 17 Sep 2012, 11:59 0 0

lol its only for the stability..
and a flexible screen alows samsung to make a ultra thinn
phone!

71. remixfa posted on 17 Sep 2012, 15:33 0 0

it allows samsung to change designs a bit like a curved glass display. Also, its more for drop/vibration resistance than anything. If its flexible and not rigid, its less likely to break on impact or if you bump into something with your phone.

I want to say the same things...
I think Samsung is too responsive towards what Apple did...
Apple is Apple and samsung is Samsung...

It seems that this piece of news came as a surprise to a downvoter? LOL
Some thumbs down ppl must be phsychologically unstable...

27. Non_Sequitur posted on 17 Sep 2012, 04:51 3 1

I hope they do a little more than that, that's almost as much of an incremental upgrade than the iPhone 5.
C'mon Samsung, don't be like Apple and release the same thing every year!

48. VJo003 posted on 17 Sep 2012, 08:21 0 1

ceramic body...???
LMAO.... That was the biggest joke of S3

63. doejon posted on 17 Sep 2012, 12:00 0 0

u will see they have already noticed
s3 will get a kevlar or keramic design

38. shuaibhere posted on 17 Sep 2012, 07:08 1 0

U are right......
I read the same thing in zdnet...
that samsung wants to maintain it's one year product schedule.....

yes its already in the market its called the ipad nyahahahahahah

LOL.. bigger, faster, NFC, wireless charging, new OS.. updated design.. but nothing new.

If that's nothing new.. What IS???

57. Carlitos posted on 17 Sep 2012, 09:50 0 0

How about all the software improvements. Touchwiz looks better, much more fluid, and dozens of nifty little, but extremely helpful features. i.e. Swipe palm for screen shot, smart stay, call someone from contact or message just by putting phone in ear.
that pop up video thing, and more

The Galaxy Note has sold over 10 million. The Note 2, which is expected to release on all 4 major carriers in the U.S. is expected to sell over 20 million. Not many phones do those kind of numbers period. I hate to burst your bubble, but I would hardly call that niche.
