Samsung has publicized the dates for its yearly Forum and
promised “major announcements”, sparking speculation that it could launch the
New Samsung Galaxy S4 phone in February in Monaco.
Although the current model, the
Samsung Galaxy S3, launched only in late May last year, rumors of a
beneficiary have been circulating for months already. Samsung was previously
forced to deny that it would debut the S4 at CES in Las Vegas in
January.
The Samsung Forum event, taking place in Monaco from 4 to 6
February, replaces last year’s European Forum with a global event where sources
say “major announcements” are expected.
Features for the S4 have yet to
be exposed, although a Samsung executive confirmed the name. While Samsung has
shown flexible displays, the ‘bendy-phone’ technology is not yet thought to be
ready for mass production. An HD display and a 13 Mega Pixel camera are widely
expected, as are wireless charging and mobile payment options.
