There may be a water resistant Samsung Galaxy S4 on the way

24 April, 2013

One of the things the Sony Xperia Z lords over the Samsung Galaxy S4 is its IP57 certification, which grants it dust and water resistance. That advantage might not last long though, as a rugged version of the Samsung flagship might be unveiled in the coming weeks.

During a Q&A session, Young Soo Kim (President of Samsung Gulf) was asked about the company’s water-resistant devices (of which it has several mid-rangers) and he let it slip that a water-resistant Samsung Galaxy S4 is in the works.

That’s the first time such a device has been mentioned, there are no sources to corroborate this, so take it with a pinch of salt. Still, how cool would it be if it turns out true?

water resistant or not we are sure its gonna be a cheap plastic box, unless people starts to prefer better looking and devices that feels better to hold. Why does Sammy fones look so cheap and pointless.
