After yesterday's beautiful rumor of Samsung's tile-formatted home screen, seems like the Samsung Galaxy S5 jackpots keep coming! The latest Galaxy S5 rumor reveals the release and launch dates among other details.
Samsung Galaxy S5 launch date rumor:
This latest rumor of Samsung Galaxy S5 launch date claims that Galaxy S5 will be unveiled in a pre-Mobile World Congress Samsung event on February 23rd in Barcelona at 18:00 local time - very specific details! It further says that Samsung Galaxy S5 will be launched globally in end of April.
These latest Galaxy S5 rumors come from a Twitter user and Russian blogger Eldar Murtazin. Murtazin tweeted that the next flagship will be launched in late April for similar price as of the current flagship, the Galaxy S4. The tweet also mentions that the Galaxy S5 will be released with Samsung's new TouchWiz. 
The currently known Samsung Galaxy S5 specifications (not official, of course):
- 5.25 inch Super AMOLED display
- Snapdragon 800 and Exynos
- 16 megapixels rear camera
- Android 4.4 KitKat
- Passive Stylus support and improved air gestures
- New TouchWiz UI - from today's rumor!
The introduction of a fingerprint scanner seems to replicate the capabilities of Apple's latest iPhone 5s. Samsung is also alleged to launch a premium model (pricing at above $1,000) along with its regular smartphone.
We have a very good feeling about this rumor as Murtazin has previously revealed some accurate details of Samsung devices. Last year, he predicted Samsung Galaxy S4 launch date a month before the Samsung event.
