Samsung Galaxy S4, will it have an aluminum-finished design?

Whether true or not, any new information about the Samsung Galaxy S4 it becomes relevant news for the fact of configuring the flagship of the first manufacturer in the world during these months. And with this, whatever information is leaked, regardless of its reliability, attracts the eye, even of the most skeptical. In this case, an attempt is made to attract attention with new data related to the technical characteristics and design of the terminal, presenting us with new images that are giving the technological media around the world something to talk about.

Thanks to the latest information filtered by AndroidCommunity, we have a render that shows how attractive the design from the next jewel of the Korean firm, the Samsung Galaxy S4. Although, personally, I would not trust the veracity of this photograph, and even less the technical information, it must be admitted that the physical appearance of the terminal presented here is the most elegant. Although this render has all the earmarks of being a fake, many Samsung fans have already spoken about it confirming that if the final design were similar to this, they would be more than satisfied; And it is that one of the things that Samsung's Galaxy S series needs is to innovate in appearance, since the latest models have been faithful to the same design line.

Analyzing the image, we can highlight the finish of the case, which offers an appearance as similar as possible to a metal housing, finished in aluminum. It would be interesting if this were so, but looking at Samsung's latest bets in its different series and models, the equipment has always been made of plastic. If the Samsung Galaxy S4 innovated in that sense, it would be a great stride in the Korean firm's design line, something that more than one would like to see. Another very interesting detail is that the phone integrates a stereo speakers, which we can see in the lower part of the front face of the terminal, next to the microUSB connection. We can also see, on one side of the housing, two physical buttons, a lower one, which will surely serve to access the camera function, and an upper one that has all the earmarks of being in charge of setting the volume of the device.

A less powerful processor

The data related to the technical characteristics have not had the same acceptance, and it is that they contradict the latest information They were pointing out that the Samsung Galaxy S4 would boast an Exynos 5 processor with 8 cores at 1,8 GHz. A beastly power compared to the processor that wants to place the new filtered render: a Exynos A15 quad-core 2,0 GHz; and it is that, nowadays, you have so many nuclei, you are worth so much.

As for the rest of the characteristics, they are based on previous leaks, although there is a small change in the battery that, far from the 2.600 mAh of previous publications, here it reaches 3.100 mAh. The five-inch FullHD screen with Gorilla Glass 3 layer, the 2GB of RAM, the LTE connectivity and the 13-megapixel camera are maintained.

What do you think of the design proposed by this leak? Regardless of whether it is true or remains a mere Fake, would you like the finish of the Samsung Galaxy S4 outside in aluminum?
