The Company has officially presented the next version of its flagman smart phone Galaxy S4 — a device protected from the dust and moisture, which name has the Active prefix. We have already heard about this new device not once (and Hi-Tech.Mail.Ru has exclusively published its specifications).
As it was expected, the new smart phone does not actually concede to the “main” flagman with respect to specifications.
One of the disadvantages is an increase in size. Thickness has grown fromс 7,9 to 9,1 mm, and weight has increased from 130 to 151 gramme. But it should be clear that Samsung Galaxy S4 Active has obtained IP67 certification (protection from dust and water, possibility diving at a depth of 1 m, up to 30 minutes). The second disavantage is simpler photo module of 8 Mp against 13, which has the flagman model. At that, the camera of the new product has a special Aqua Mode regime, giving an opportunity to improve the quality of pictures made under water.
As for other specifications, so the new product is the same as LTE- version of Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). Device has the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor with the  clock frequency of 1,9 GHz,  Adreno 320 graphic , 2 GB of core memory  and 5-inch Full HD display (443 ppi), not Super AMOLED, but TFT (at that, for some persons it can be an advantage). Display can be managed by wet hands and with gloves

The volume of internal storage – 16GB, it can be extended for 64 GB with memory card, the resolution of the front camera – 2 MP, and battery – 2600 mAh. There are modules LTE, HSPA +, Wi-Fi a / b / g / n / ac modules, Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC, as well as multiple sensors, including an accelerometer, digital compass, gyroscope and barometer.

The device is running by Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean monitoring with all soft-core chips of main flagman.

This summer the new product will be on sale in the U.S. and Switzerland; it will be presented in three colors – gray (urban grey), turquoise (dive blue) and orange-and-black (orange flare). In other countries, the timing of release varies. According to information of Hi-Tech.Mail.Ru, Samsung Galaxy S4 Active will appear in Russia in July. Later we will post a price.

Currently the price of new product was revealed by one of the Finnish retailers. According to his information, the product will go into the European retail at the price of 600 euro.
