Recently it has been discovered that a third Samsung Galaxy S4 /S IV model set to be released for the South Korean market may exist (and it probably is the best). While most of us know that there are two models; one using a 1.6GHz Exynos 5 Octa processor and another using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 S4 processor the model set for the Korean market is supposedly running a 1.8Ghz Exynos 5 Octa processor.
According to SamMobile the model numbers and other details include:
- GT-I9500 – Exynos 5 Octa 1.6 GHz without LTE
- GT-I9505 – Snapdragon 600 1.9 GHz with LTE
- SHV-E300S – Exynos 5 Octa 1.8 GHz with LTE
The GT-I9505 is meant for the European market (since they have LTE) while the GT-I9500 is meant mostly for Asia. The top-of-the-line SHV-E300S is meant solely for South Koreans.
Regarding AnTuTu benchmarks, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 powered Samsung Galaxy S4 / S IV generally get an AnTuTu score of around 25000 while the 1.6Ghz Exynos 5 Octa processor based Samsung Galaxy S4 / S IV has received a score of around 27000 to 28000. The 1.8Ghz Exynos 5 Octa Samsung Galaxy S4 / S IV should easily beat anything on the market. When it is released (and optimized) it could even break the AnTuTu record of 30000. While it is still unclear if you have to be a South Korean to get the SHV-E300S it should be more than enough for all the resource hungry users who are in South Korea.
