As is usual for the rumor-mill, sometimes things flip-flop like a drunken Congressman. This particular shift comes from the Samsung camp. Previously we reported rumors that the first flexible plastic curved display device from Sammy would possibly be a "limited edition" or an Active version of the Galaxy Note 3. Today's newest rumor debunks that theory and suggests it is instead a completely new device series.
Today's report suggests Samsung’s curved screen phone will be like the Youm prototypes shown at CES in January. In fact, a recent benchmark was discovered for an unknown Samsung device with the model number SM-G910S. This device has been rumored to launch next week. This is "coincidentally" the same time Samsung indicated it would be launching their first curved display device. It isn't much of a stretch to conclude they might be the same device.
Incidentally, here's a spec breakdown of that device taken from the benchmarks:
- Snapdragon 800 processor
- Full HD (1920 x 1080) display
- Android 4.3
- LTE-A
