Samsung has confirmed the official South African launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4 will take place on 25 April, in Johannesburg.
The manufacturer did not, however, want to divulge any further details at this stage.
The Samsung Galaxy 4 will be available at Vodacom World and other participating outlets from 26 April. "Pricing information will be available soon. Customers who are interested in placing pre-orders can now register on the Vodacom Web site," says a Vodacom spokesperson.
Cell C has also confirmed the Galaxy S4 is on pre-order and is expected to be available for retail on 26 April. "Deals and costs will be made available closer to launch date," says Cell C executive head of communications Karin Fourie.
MTN also has a pre-order application for the Galaxy S4 on its Web site.
Samsung's new top-end smartphone is slimmer and lighter (7.9mm and 130g, respectively) than its predecessor, the Galaxy S3. It features a five-inch, full HD Super AMOLED (1 920 x 1 080) display, with 441ppi. It is powered by a 1.9GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor and runs Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. The Galaxy S4 also supports HSPA+ 42Mbps and 4G LTE.
