Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo Coming in MayRetuters

With less than two weeks to go before the Galaxy S4 unpacking event on 14 March, a teaser video was released on Monday with a tag "[Samsung UNPACKED] Be ready 4 the next Galaxy" creating more hype over the next-generation Galaxy smartphone.

On the very same day, a Samsung employee revealed on condition of anonymity that the smartphone will have a new cutting edge software that will track eye-movements while scrolling through text, thereby reducing the need for users to use finger touch while using the device, reported New York Times blog Bits.

A few days ago, another leaked spec sheet of the Galaxy S4 reportedly featuring the in-house built Exynos 5 Octa-core processor surfaced online. Should the rumoured translate into reality, then Galaxy S4 will gain another distinction of being the industry's first smartphone to pack an 8-core chipset.

The hype surrounding the launch of Samsung's Galaxy S4 is understandable given the fact that its predecessor Galaxy S3 was a huge global success. Its record sales pushed Samsung into becoming the world's top smartphone company, at the end of 2012.

At the Consumer Electronics Show in January, Samsung had unveiled the next-generation 8-core processor Exynos 5410, leading many to believe that South Korean company would embed the new chipset in Galaxy s4 as well as the next-generation Galaxy Note 3, which is speculated to debut in August.

Samsung has confirmed that it will launch Galaxy S4 at a public event in New York City, reportedly at Times Square on 14 March.
