I hope the S4 comes with this:

Or the new Note will look something like this:

Ooh...I really couldn't think about exactly how the flexible oled will come in handy until seeing that 2nd video. Forget the padfone. A Note device that can fold out to an 11 inch tablet, but fold back in to be a 5.5 inch phone in the current physical note 2 dimensions.... sign me up!

Seeing that this technology exists now for 2013, I can't wait to see what 2014 will bring. I am really thinking of buying a new phone this summer off contract.

Until I actually see a released product, I'm not going to hold my breathe. We've already seen live project glass demos and those things aren't going to be on the market for a while. So, I wonder what Samsung's projected timeframe would be to actually have devices like they showed in that mock video. Both devices actually intrigued me a lot.

I'm thinking regular Exynos 5 Quad for SGS4. I can't imagine this chipset being ready by May/June.

For all we know it could already be in production. According to Eldar Murtazin on Twitter, Samsung will be finalizing the design for the S4 within the next two weeks. There is still plenty of time. I remember rumors of big.LITTLE months ago, anything is possible.

I agree, I am not going to hold my breathe as well. I remember seeing the videos of the flexible screen a couple years ago from CES. But it is good to know that Samsung is still working on making it happen.

Seems to me if they squared up the corners on the note2 and ran zero orders they could almost get the 6" screen size in the note without increasing the form factor. The borders don't really do anything anyway...

Meh, high end or go home! Lol. Don't want to hear anything about any other device that isn't the next EVO or SGS4.

LOL you and me both! Starting to get antsy waiting for the new Flagships. Sony's Xperia Z and ZL are both nice, but I know there isn't a chance in hell that Sprint will be carrying them.

Even the original Xperia, I thought was really nice. That's another manufacturer that Sprint hasn't carried in a long time (Similar to how Motorola didn't really have a superphone until the original Photon was announced).

I really wish Sprint would carry a Sony high end phone. Why doesn't Sprint carry them? Is there a reason?

Seems to me that Sony doesn't like producing for the CDMA networks. They tried with the Xperia Play a while ago with Verizon, but that was about it.
