The Galaxy S4 is rumored to be arriving with a 5-inch 1080p display in the first half of 2013.

The report does not mention any of the devices by name but it’s safe to assume that it’s talking about the Samsung Galaxy S4, a device that is heavily rumored to be coming with a 1080p display at a size rumored to be either 5-inches or 4.99-inches.

What’s more, a separate report from The Verge claims that the Galaxy S4 won’t have an unbreakable display as has been rumored with Samsung instead opting to pass on the flexible OLED display technology until a later date.

The Samsung Galaxy S4, one of the most heavily rumored smartphones at the end of 2012, is rumored to be making its debut at MWC 2013 in February though Samsung has yet to confirm anything.
