Samsung Confirms Galaxy S4 Will Skip MWC 2013

Device rumored for an unveiling during Samsung's Unpacked event come March 22.

After confirming the existence of the Galaxy 8.0 tablet, Samsung boss JK Shin confirmed that the Galaxy S4 won't be making its debut during the Mobile World Congress next month.

Since 2012, Samsung has announced yearly Galaxy S products at its own event, which is the strategy Apple is renowned for.

With that in mind, a Korean publication believes that the South Korean technology giant's Unpacked event on March 22 will see the unveiling of the widely awaited Galaxy S3 successor.

Samsung previously confirmed that the Galaxy S4, which will seemingly sport a 4.99-inch full HD screen and an eight core processor, won't launch until May at the earliest.

I'm eagerly awaiting the official reveal for the S4, but I can understand that Samsung wants to do it with as much fanfare as possible for their flagship phone.

I hope they don't release it to soon. It would make people feel like they should have waited for the S4 instead of buying the S3.

The S3 has been out for a pretty long time. bout 7 months. So releasing a new phone in the next couple of months I don't think would surprise to many people.

Since 2012? Has it really been that many years already? Man, I'm getting old, 2012 still feels just like last year to me.

I thought Samsung was going to unveil the Galaxy S4 at their Reveal event tomorrow.
Now they are going to unveil it on the 22nd? So WTH are they going to reveal tomorrow?

Confused.
