On Tuesday, we showed you pictures from an unboxing of the Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A. This is no ordinary version of the flagship Android model, but is equipped with the zippy Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and features LTE-A connectivity. The quad-core processor is clocked at 2.3GHz and supports the 150Mbps data speeds possible with the next generation of LTE.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A is official

Earlier this year, Verizon said that the Samsung Galaxy S4 on its lineup can be updated to work on the LTE-A pipeline that eventually will be used by Big Red. The model just introduced by Samsung will be available at first in Korea only, destined for the LTE-A pipeline belonging to SK Telecom that is being built out faster than originally envisioned.The device will be available in two colors, Aurora Red and Arctic Blue and offers the same 5 inch display with 1080 x 1920 resolution. There is 2GB of RAM with 32GB of native storage, a 13MP front-facing camera and a 2MP snapper on back. A 2,600mAh cell powers the phone which has Android 4.2 pre-installed.

If you don't live in South Korea, there is no need for jealousy. The Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE-A will be launched internationally in the months ahead.
