SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 was launched live on Stirileprotv.ro and Yoda.ro, with George Buhnici from New York.

In a grand event organized in New York, Samsung launched the Galaxy S4, a phone with countless new and spectacular functions, but we haven't heard anything about the processor, the people from Samsung refraining from saying anything in this show.

But what I saw in New York was really impressive. We are talking about a thinner phone of 136.6 x 69.8 x 79 mm and 130 grams, with a memory of 2GB RAM, which can be purchased with a storage space of 16/32/64 GB, plus a micro SD space of up to 64 GB.

The battery, a sensitive point for many smartphones, will be 2600 mAh, and the display will have a 4.99-inch Full HD Super AMOLED of 441 ppi, at a resolution of 1920 x 1080. In terms of cameras - video, Galaxy The S4 will have a 13 MP main camera and a 2 MP front camera, and for those who want speed when browsing, this phone will support both 3G and 4G LTE networks, with download speeds of up to 100 MP and upload speeds of up to 50 MB.
