Samsung is readying a new variant of its Galaxy S4 for June, according to the Wall Street Journal.
As reported earlier this week, the OEM is developing a rugged version of its flagship Android smartphone dubbed Galaxy S4 “Active,” which will look similar to the original but boast waterproofing and a sturdier chassis.


This is the first time that Samsung has ruggedized its most high-end smartphone, and is doing so to appeal to a relatively untapped market; as smartphones replace larger, more cumbersome pieces of technology,
they become more essential to have with us at all times, regardless of where we are. People who work in hazardous or unpredictable environments often require extra cases and utilities to keep their phones safe,
but external covers fail, and having a phone designed with such use cases in mind can extend its life tremendously.

Earlier this year, Sony unveiled the Xperia Z, a high-end device that is water- and dustproof. It’s proven quite popular everywhere in the world, and is rumoured to be Sony’s most successful Android device to date.
Devices like the Sony Xperia Go are examples of rugged smartphones, but their specs don’t equal their might in many ways.

Samsung is also expected to debut yet another 8-inch tablet, though this one will lack the Note branding and S Pen, and likely come in well below the $399USD MSRP of the Note 8.0.
hat, along with a smaller Galaxy S4 Mini, will debut alongside the Galaxy S4 Active, says the WSJ.

While Samsung is doing all that it can to promote it’s latest flagship smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S4, but simultaneously, the company is also focusing on bringing more affordable devices to the market.

One of such devices rumored to be in the works, the Samsung Galaxy Core has now leaked online, thanks to the Russian website hi-tech.mail.ru.

According to the leak, the Samsung Galaxy Core will feature a 4.3-inch display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. The smartphone is expected to be powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor coupled with 768MB of RAM. Also, there’s 8GB of storage on-board along with a micro-SD card slot to further expand the storage space on the smartphone.

In terms of camera, the Samsung Galaxy core is expected to feature a 5 megapixel rear snapper, but there is no information about a front camera on the smartphone. For connectivity, it will get the usual set of features like Bluetooth v4.0, Wi-Fi and GPS. The smartphone will also pack-in a 1,800mAh battery.

The smartphone will most probably run on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI on top and will measure at 129.3 x 67.56 x 8.95 mm while weighing 140 grams.

The Samsung Galaxy Core is expected to hit Russian and Chinese markets by mid-May for a price of about 320 euros, which roughly translates too Rs.22,500 in India. However, there is still no word about it’s availability in other countries around the world.

Samsung galaxy note 510

First announced at the Mobile World Congress back in February, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 was launched in India last month as the Galaxy Note 510, and the tablet is now finally up for pre order via Samsung’s official online store.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 510 can be pre booked for a price of Rs.30,900 and as a special pre-booking offer, Samsung is also giving away a book cover worth Rs.2,699 along with the Note 510 for free.
Essentially a rival to the iPad Mini, the new 8 inch marvel from Samsung sports a 1,280 x 800 pixel resolution TFT display amounting to a pixel density of 189 pixels per inch. Built along the lines of previous tablets with a plastic chassis, the Galaxy Note 510 has an Exynos 4 Quad processor set at 1.6GHz with 2GB RAM. The Galaxy Note 8 will also be capable of handling full Phone calls and Video calls directly from the unit itself, and it does have an earpiece.
The Galaxy Note 510 also has WiFi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, A-GPS, GLONASS and HSPA+ 21 (850/900/1900/2100MHz). On the inside of the Note 8 is up to 32GB of internal storage (microSD expansion separate), a nice and large 4,600mAh battery. The Galaxy Note 510 will come with version 4.1.2 of Jelly Bean onboard and the new TouchWiz Nature UX.
The 8-inch iPad Mini rival houses a 5 MP Rear and 1.3 MP front facing camera, with the rear capable of full HD video at 1080p.
The pre-booking for the Galaxy Note 510 starts on the eve of Galaxy S4′s launch in India and it seems that Samsung wishes to take both, the smartphone and the tablet market by storm at the same time.
