Despite the painfully lame jokes, the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S IV went off with a bang, and it really is an amazing device and blows away nearly all expectations. Samsung made it clear they want to focus their technology upon enriching our lives, and there are many ways this new phone will do just that. While it looks very similar to the previous gen Galaxy S III, it takes things to a whole new level with its technological innovations. It is confirmed that the US version will be getting a different processor than the Exynos 5 Octa-core Chip. The main promise of the new device is the amazing things it can do, so perhaps it really doesn't matter which chip it has. Of course, we will have to see once it hits the shelves...
