Samsung has a holding page up on its press site for MWC 2011, which lists the Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.0 and Galaxy S WiFi 5.0. Unfortunately, there are no specifications as yet, but we do have some pictures of these two new Samsung Galaxy S players.
We suspect by the names that there will be two different sized versions, one with a 5-inch display and the other with a 4-inch display. Have a look at the photos below.
Expected Features and Specifications
While we await the official specifications, we can make some educated guesses based on Samsung’s previous Galaxy S models and current market trends. The Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.0 and 5.0 are likely to feature high-resolution Super AMOLED displays, which are known for their vibrant colors and deep blacks. Given the trend towards high-definition content, both devices might support 720p or even 1080p video playback.
In terms of storage, we can expect multiple options, possibly ranging from 8GB to 32GB, with expandable storage via microSD cards. Connectivity options will likely include WiFi, Bluetooth, and possibly even NFC for contactless payments and data transfer.
Potential Use Cases and Market Positioning
These devices seem to be positioned as media-centric gadgets, ideal for users who consume a lot of video content, play games, or listen to music on the go. The larger 5-inch model could be particularly appealing to those who prefer a bigger screen for watching movies or playing games, while the 4-inch model might attract users looking for a more compact device.
Given Samsung’s history of including robust audio capabilities in their devices, we can expect high-quality sound output, possibly with support for various audio formats and enhancements like Dolby Atmos. The inclusion of front and rear cameras is also likely, making these devices versatile for both media consumption and creation.
As soon as we get some official specifications on the Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.0 and Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0, we will let you guys know. These devices could be a significant addition to Samsung’s lineup, offering a blend of smartphone-like features without the cellular capabilities, making them more affordable and accessible.
