As the Samsung Unpacked event wraps up a while ago, we're bringing you the meat of what transpired in the unveiling of the Galaxy S4. The Samsung Galaxy S 4 specs and features.
No big unexpected surprises were revealed. Rumors and speculations were right on track. In fact, most people observed that the Samsung Galaxy S 4 is more of an updated / upgraded S III. Looking at both handsets side by side proves the point. So what's the big game-changer then for the S 4? Aside from the new Exynos Octa-core chipset and other hardware upgrades, Samsung also throws in some new features like S Translator, S Health, Group Play (network gaming and music sharing among GS 4 units), Air Gesture (scroll and navigate without touching the screen), and Air View (allows you to use your fingers in lieu of an S Pen). All other things were enhancements to what the Galaxy S III previously offered.
