In order to give its flagship phone a shot in the arm, Samsung released the LTE-Advanced compatible Galaxy S4 in South Korea over the summer, complete with the quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor. The refreshed smartphone is now making its way to Europe, starting with a launch in Sweden next month and likely spreading throughout the continent soon afterwards. Samsung Germany has already listed the upgraded Galaxy S4 on its website, but did not include a release date or pricing information. Samsung has been quiet regarding the Galaxy S4 with LTE-A in terms of an international release, especially in the U.S., but with the recent launch of the Galaxy Note 3 and the inevitable Galaxy S5 announcement in the coming months, there’s no telling how far the upgraded S4 will reach before Samsung shifts its focus to new products.
Samsung is bringing the best Galaxy S4 to Europe long before the U.S.
