Samsung Galaxy S4 has been launched with the tagline \’Life Companion\’ and will reach shelves across the globe by the end of April. However, there is no word about its launch in India so far, but one can be sure that India, being a prominent market for Samsung, will be amongst the first batch of countries to get the device. Samsung has launched Galaxy S devices in India within weeks of their global launches and is expected to repeat the trend this time as well.

Samsung Galaxy S4 comes loaded with Android 4.2 aka Jelly Bean operating system. Android 4.2 is the latest version of Android launched by Google. Needless to say, Samsung has rendered the device with its proprietary TouchWiz user interface, that offers some unique features which may help Samsung to woo customers.

One of the most attractive features of this smartphone is its gesture-based control. With this, users can perform tasks on their phone without even touching the screen. It functions with the help of the front camera and allow users to perform many \’smart\’ actions without the use of their hands. A striking example of smart gesture is the \’smart pause\’. It pauses a video automatically! As soon as the camera notices the user looking away from the screen it pauses the video being played and resumes when the user looks back at the screen. Also, while reading an article, users can scroll down the web page simply by swiping their hands down in the air. They don\’t need to touch the screen to scroll down the web page.

Yet another astounding feature that Samsung Galaxy S4 offers is the \’Dual Mode\’ option. Dual Mode allows the users to use rear and front camera for video capture simultaneously.

Samsung has ensured that the smartphone rules the market for another year at least, which is why the company has packed it with top-of-the-line hardware. It is touted as the world\’s fastest smartphone in the market and will continue to retain its position at least till smartphones powered by Nvidia\’s Tegra 4 arrive in the market.
