Samsung launched S4 to counter the popular iPhone series of Apple Inc.,
and till now it has been able to keep an upper edge to its competitor. The
demand for this smartphone device is increasing with every day, even the distributors are pushing the suppliers for more and more units. In fact the
supply issues have also snarled the US role out procedure through some of the
carriers of the company.
The reason for this super success of S4 is that, it has been able to
create a buzz in the global smartphone market since its inception. Sensing
these demands, Samsung has decided to increase the high-end smartphone market
size in countries like India. S4 has reported solid sales in almost all the
countries that it has targeted for.
The Korean company reported a sharp increase of 42% in
profits in the last quarter only, and the experts are predicting that it may
surpassed this in the next quarter with the help of its latest flagship S4
devices. Samsung, which debuted in 2010 only, is currently leading the global
smartphone market, which has a total market size of $225
billion.
Here is the some of the

devices of its kind. It can
be used for 'gesture-control', and it has 2 mega pixel front and 13 mega pixel
rear camera, a five-inch full HD super AMOLED touchscreen, and many other

the likes of S4 in last few months, and that gave the Samsung device an added
advantage to dominant the market. It received mixed reviews from the various
gadget experts, but that didn’t affect its sale outcomes, as it has benefited
from heavy marketing plans.

to beat the operation profits of Apple in this quarter for
the first time in years. Currently the Korean firm owns a record 33 percent of
