Galaxy S4 Screen Size Confirmed: 4.99", 440 ppi, 1080p

The next smartphone to wait for is definitely the Samsung Galaxy S4 and Samsung's finally confirmed that the upcoming Galaxy S4 screen will be massive 4.99" wide (diagonally), will have a pixel density of 440 ppi (which means better view quality) and it will be capable of displaying full HD: 1080p.

I like the bold steps Samsung's taking with their product line. First, when they unveiled the Note, a lot of people mocked at the screen size. But then the Note ended up selling several million units world-wide and Samsung confirmed that there's indeed a 'want' for the phablets - or the large scree mobile phones that could just replace the tablets.

Samsung's been adopting bigger screen sizes for the galaxy series phones and the next one will adopt the 5" form factor. I bet watching full HD videos on the 440p screen is going to be an awesome experience.

iPhone 5's Pixel Density Is 326 ppi

The question everyone wants to ask is how does that compare with that of iPhone 5, which basically sets the benchmarks in the industry. iPhone 5 offered retina display screen with 326 ppi - and Samsung's going to beat it hands down! Of course, we'll have to wait for the iPhone 6, which might give a tough competition to the Galaxy Phone. But so far, Galaxy series has maintained a lead over the Apple's phone in terms of hardware.

I'm sure it'd be an interesting fight to follow. What's your take?

    Then I would like to ask back, why in the world are they making energy hungry things when we are to conserve it! 👎

    Not that I hate a 5 inch 440 ppi display 😁
    People must be thankful to engineers who enclose several watt hours of energy in a few inches! If you draw less power, it will last for days 😨 Energy should be used at the lowest possible rate not the highest.

    Go efficient, not hungry for energy! 👍
