Samsung Electronics Co. launched the Galaxy S4, the latest version of the leading competitor to Apple Inc.’s iPhone, Thursday night at Radio City Music Hall in New York. J.K. Shin, president of Samsung Mobile, introduced the new device as "a life companion for a richer, simpler life." Is it a legal companion?

The Galaxy S4 is slimmer than its predecessor, the S3. The S4 has a depth of .31 inches, stands 5.38 inches high and 2.75 inches wide, weighing in at 4.59 ounces. It has a larger 5-inch, full HD Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 441 pixels per inch (1080 x 1920 pixels). While its standout hardware feature is its 13-megapixel camera, its removable Lithium-ion battery now has a longer life at 2,600 milliamp hours. The new phone has added built-in sensors including infared gesture and temperature and humidity. It runs on Google Android Jelly Bean, and its polycarbonate housing is available in two colors: Black Mist and White Frost.
