What the Samsung Galaxy S IV Could Have Been: Here’s a New Concept!
Although the Samsung Galaxy S4 is basically here,
only days away from entering stores, people are still dreaming of what
could have been. Many of us have been disappointed of getting the same
Galaxy S III design on the new model, that’s why they took matters into
their own hands and designed a smartphone like the one below.
Published on Florin Kumnova’s Behance page, this Galaxy S IV concept comes from Vizart and uses the “Samsung Style”, based on the designers’ Unik Style, as they call it. We’re dealing here with an Android 4.2 smartphone with a 5 inch Full HD Super AMOLED display . The specs of the Galaxy S4 render are the same with the real model, including the 8 core Exynos Octa 5, 13 MP camera and 2 GB of RAM.
The phone is absolutely edge to edge in the display area and even the top and bottom bezel are as small as possible, even sacrificing some of the estate of the front buttons, including Home one. All of the buttons are thin, but the screen is gorgeous. The texture at the back of the handset feels like a soft touch/rubber/kevlar material, sort of a combo between HTC’s choices and Motorola’s back panels.
For some reason I like this Samsung Galaxy S4 more than the real one.

HTC Second, the Instagram Phone
Just a couple of days ago, the HTC First Facebook Phone started
selling in shops and a new era of social devices started. We did have a
bunch of Facebook phones previously, like the HTC Salsa or ChaCha. Well,
why not start dreaming of other social handsets, like the Google+ phone
or even the Instagram phone.
Deviantart member raintomista imagined the HTC Second Instagram concept phone, that allows you to see a stream of photos from friends on a homescreen that will be refreshed automatically. HTC Second will always allow you to stay connected with friends, see their pics and interact with them. I guess that HTC Second could be priced even lower than the HTC First, so lower than $99.
Also, in order to run Instagram and its associated services, I guess that the specs won’t have to be too high end. Maybe a dual core Qualcomm CPU could work, or even a high power Intel processor, although I’m not sure how well it will manage battery consumption on the device. The display resolution would have to be HD, to see those Instagram-fied pics in all their splendor.
