Last week, AT&T announced that they would be offering the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active for $199.99 with a two-year contract. The handset is set to launch on AT&T on the 21st of June.
Now, it would appear that some actual photos of the AT&T branded Samsung Galaxy S4 Active have appeared online ahead of the official release. Have a look at the gallery below.
The Galaxy S4 Active features a 5-inch display, which boasts a full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and 443 PPI. Unlike the standard Galaxy S4, which uses a Super AMOLED display, the S4 Active comes with a TFT LCD display. This choice of display technology is aimed at providing better visibility under direct sunlight, which is a significant advantage for outdoor use.
Performance and Hardware
Processing power comes in the form of a quad-core 1.9GHz processor, ensuring that the device can handle multitasking and demanding applications with ease. This makes the Galaxy S4 Active a suitable choice for users who need a robust and reliable smartphone for both work and play.
Other specifications on the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active include 16GB of built-in storage, plus 2GB of RAM. Samsung has pointed out that the usable storage on the device is 11.25GB, which should be sufficient for most users. However, for those who need more space, the device also supports expandable storage via a microSD card slot, allowing users to add up to an additional 64GB of storage.
Durability and Additional Features
One of the standout features of the Galaxy S4 Active is its durability. The device is designed to be water and dust resistant, with an IP67 certification. This means it can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes without suffering any damage. This makes the S4 Active an excellent choice for users who enjoy outdoor activities or work in environments where their phone might be exposed to the elements.
The Galaxy S4 Active also comes with an 8-megapixel rear camera, which is slightly lower in resolution compared to the 13-megapixel camera found on the standard Galaxy S4. However, it compensates with a unique “Aqua Mode” that allows users to take photos and videos underwater. The front-facing camera is a 2-megapixel shooter, suitable for video calls and selfies.
In terms of software, the Galaxy S4 Active runs on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI on top. This provides users with a range of additional features and customization options, including Smart Stay, which keeps the screen on as long as the user is looking at it, and Air View, which allows users to preview content by hovering their finger over the screen.
