Samsung could be adding yet another Galaxy S4 variant to its lineup, according to benchmarks leaked online. July 18, 2013 6:07 AM PDT Samsung's Galaxy S4. (Credit: Sarah Tew/CNET) A new version of Samsung's Galaxy S4 may soon surface, at least based on a series of benchmarks. AnTuTu benchmarks uncovered by GSMarena and other blog sites highlight a new international LTE-Advanced version of the Galaxy S4 with a Qualcomm quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor clocked at 2.3 GHz. Tagged with a model number of I9506, the phone is outfitted with Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. In comparison, the original Galaxy S4 is powered by a 1.9GHz quad-core Snapdragon 600 chip and supports 4G LTE. Another variant released last month in South Korea comes with a Snapdragon 800 processor and supports LTE-A. But the benchmarks list that one as different from the new leaked model, and one that delivers a slightly slower performance.
