09 January, 2014
The new flagship will feature a completely new design that the company has created from scratch.

Samsung is a great company,the only problem is that they always rush things to stay ahead of competition. As for Apple,they are letting other companies to test things first and then they study how to optimize the feature and then release a "killer" product in time. Timing is the key!

    onex, 09 Jan 2014i think you meant to say: iPhone 6 is going for the S4....m... moreI'd never buy another Samsung device, because of the crappy support, updates and often buggy software.

    Tacky designs and UI, too.

    Yep, the iPhone is a better designed phone.

    Cheers.

      I own the Galaxy S4 and it's the phone I was the happiest about. Surely will sell it when the S5 comes out to get it, as long as it's better enough, but that seems to be almost guaranteed with Samsung.

        In other words, more useless gimmicks and more defective bloat, just what Samsung needed.

        Laughable.

          Samsung : 100 features -30 don't work & 70 are useless
          Apple: 10 features - All useful and perfectly working

            The idea is good, but how often do you think this iris scanner will work in the light levels most people use their phones. As much as I am an Android user, I much prefer the idea of something that works in all light levels, such as finger print recognition.

                          Iris scanner? Have they tested it? I'm scared if it gets worst when I use it.

                              firts of all just check the statics of GSMARENA of last 3 years and get the idea about which O/S is better. I kNow everyone know Android is better than all others. All device providers are lunching their atleast one device with Anroid platform expect Apple and BB. AN Android user doesnt want to use any apple services, but i chellenge all apple users can you avoid all services of Google? you cant, becoz without google you apple device is nothing. -Google Android-

                                        Still same old copying samsung.

                                        1. Copied the concept of biometrics, fingerprint/ iris .. not much diff..
                                        2. Announce the idea of 64bit immediately when they see their competitors.
                                        3. Hear apple rumor on a watch.. and release a hasty samsung gear ugly watch.
                                        4. See that HTC / Sony uses waterproof or FHD screen .. and copy immediately.. and release tons of ignored junk phones without updates like Samsung Active S4.

                                        Nothing original.. Too much phones .. too little updates.. and Samsung fan just keep buying and buying one phone after another because not satistified.
