While the confirmation isn't exactly official, a leaked manual for a Snapdragon 800 powered Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone has recently surfaced from Samsung's own download center. This is probably about as close to 'official' confirmation we can get for this smartphone with the model number SHV-E330S. According to tech specs within the manual, the smartphone is using a new Qualcomm MSM8974 chipset with four Krait 400 CPU cores, an Adreno 330 GPU and LTE-Advanced support. While the name hasn't been confirmed yet, all of these specs point towards the rumoured upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4 Plus which has all of the features listed.
Check out the specs and manual pics for yourself. As it is, other specs match the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 very closely, all the way down to the 5-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display to the 136.6 x 69.8 x 7.9 mm measurements. The only difference is a T-DMB antenna to allow it to work in Korea. So far this wasn't announced during the recent Samsung Premiere 2013 event, where the Samsung Galaxy S4 family was supposedly completed, but Samsung could pull a different naming convention altogether.
