The rumours and speculation are finally over, folks. At a glitzy launch event at New York City's famed Radio City Music Hall (and a live steam into Times Square), Samsung made the Galaxy S4 official. The device is the fourth generation of a device destined to give Apple's iPhone a run for its money (and consumer audience) with a sleek design and innovative features that, in the words of Samsung, 'allows users to bring their worlds together all on one smartphone.'
The device, which squeezes a 5-inch screen into body slightly smaller than that of its predecessor, the S III, will go sale here in Canada sometime in the April to June period. Samsung didn't say what the phone will cost but it will be available from Bell, Eastlink, Fido, Koodoo, Mobilicity, Rogers, Sasktel, TELUS, Videotron, Virgin Mobile and Wind Mobile and their authorized channels.
In the last two years, Samsung has proven itself as Apple's main competitor in the high-end smartphone market. At the same time, it has sold enough inexpensive low-end phones to edge out Nokia Corp. as the world's largest maker of phones.
