The Samsung Galaxy S4 is cheaper than expected, based on the leaked price listing of the highly-anticipated device.

According to a tech forum, the Samsung Galaxy S4 price in United Kingdom would be around £500 for the 16GB version of the device. In the US, the 16GB version would cost around $600 while the 32GD version would be $650.

Samsung seemed to be following its previous pricing strategy it did with Samsung Galaxy S3 last year to attract more consumers and to encourage Samsung users to upgrade their devices.

Samsung's Galaxy S3 was introduced with the same strategy. A 16GB Galaxy S3 device with contract was priced $199. Galaxy S3 32GB device was introduced at $299, comparatively cheaper than iPhone 5's 32GB device.

Last month, an eye-catching rumour claimed that the much awaited Samsung Galaxy S4 may come with a hefty price tag as much as $400 under contract because of the high end specs and features to be included in the device. This rumour was negatively received by readers and Samsung fans.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is rumoured to feature an Exynos 5 Octa (8-Core) CPU, Mali-T678 (8-Core) GPU, 4.99″ SuperAMOLED Full HD Resolution Display, 2GB of RAM, 13 Megapixel Rear facing Camera capable of shooting 1080p Full HD Videos at 30FPS, 2 Megapixel front facing camera capable of shooting 720p HD Videos and run Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean out of the box.

Samsung sent a cryptic message hinting the release of the much awaited Samsung Galaxy S4 on March 14. The invite drops clues that the Galaxy S4 is indeed the smartphone that will be unveiled on the unpacked event.

Samsung Galaxy S4 is the next generation of the popular Galaxy S series. New rumours claimed that the much awaited Samsung Galaxy S4 will be launched on March 14 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
