Samsung Galaxy 4S Picture Gets Leaked

We don't always cover smartphones up here on Gameranx, but when we do, it's for big stories like this. As anyone who follows the developments in the mobile phone world will know, Samsung has a healthy lineup of phones in the form of the Galaxy S, the next of which is the Galaxy 4S—which is as yet unannounced.

A picture posted by a Russian mobile blogger Eldar Murtazin sheds light on the new Galaxy 4S, which is white, sleek, and as iPhone-like as you can imagine minus the bulkyness.

The phone—also known as the Galaxy S II Plus—is seen as the flagship of Samsung's brand of Android phones and may be the equivalent of the Apphe iPhone 5, whenever that's announced later this year.

It may well be a clever hoax, but it makes sense given that Samsung intends to compete closely with Apple.
