Samsung Galaxy S 4 Teardown

Even though Samsung have just announced Samsung Galaxy S 4 couple hours ago, a Chinese website managed to get hold of SGS4 (should be sample or engineering unit) and give it a teardown. The info they have on each IC is not as good as iFixIt, but still good to look inside of this SGS4 right?


Ready or not, here we go:

1. Teardown of SGS4 [ta~da~!]

2. Some crack on the plastic back on this engineering unit of SGS4.
