Will Samsung rush GS5 out the door in January?

The Samsung Galaxy S5
could be just a couple of
months away, as a new
report suggests that the
sequel to the Galaxy S4 will
be rushed out following a
recent slowdown in sales.
Korean site Naver -- founded
by ex-Samsung staffers,
incidentally -- reports that
the S5 will be revealed in
January. Rumors allege that
the S5 will pack a 16-
megapixel camera with
optical image stabilization. It
also allegedly will house a
Samsung Exynos processor
rather than a Qualcomm
processor. Fingers are
crossed for a powerful eight-
core chip, which appears in
the S4 but only in selected
countries and not in the UK
or US.
The timing of the GS5 is only
a rumor, however. And
because the S4 only went on
sale in late April, it's a rumor
that should be taken with a
pinch of salt. Even if the S4
sales have slowed lately,
don't forget that 20 million
flew off shelves in the first
two months alone.
