14 DAY TRIAL // As Samsung’s official Galaxy S IV launch is drawing near, more and more info on what the device would have to provide users with in terms of features and capabilities has emerged online.
Apparently, the device will be able to shoot photos with the back and front cameras at the same time, info coming from it168 unveils, as a recent post on SamMobile explains.
However, the same capability will arrive on LG’s Optimus G Pro smartphone in the near future, as the company has just announced plans to release it to its users as part of a so-called Value Pack update.
Galaxy S IV will also sport an eye tracking technology to enable users to scroll pages without touching the phone, and similar capabilities are set to arrive on Optimus G Pro as well, it seems.

There’s little left to be detailed on the smartphone, provided that all these rumors on its features and capabilities pan out in the end. One way or the other, all on Galaxy S IV will be announced officially in a matter of hours, so stay tuned for more on it.
