Samsung rumored to be preparing multiple variants of its next flagship phone

This probably won’t surprise a lot of people. Word on the street is that Samsung is also preparing multiple variants of its upcoming flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5. The company has already sent out invites for its Unpacked 5 event, which is presumably where the Galaxy S5 will finally be unveiled to the public. Last year the Galaxy S4 was followed up by a few variants, which looked a lot like the flagship, but offered varying specifications. 

Looks like we might get more than the Galaxy S5 from Samsung in the coming weeks. The Korean electronics giant plans to release multiple versions of its flagship smartphone, just like it did with the Galaxy S4, according to a couple Asian sites, earlier noted by BGR. That includes an Active model that’s more rugged than the flagship device, according to the Korean language ET News. Samsung also may launch a Zoom model of the Galaxy S5with strong camera capabilities, BGR said, based on an Indian import database that showed to listings for “SM-C115 Samsung Mobile Camera.”
