Lara Dutta and Mahesh Bhupathi were recently in the capital to launch the new Samsung Galaxy S4. Samsung held events in Delhi and Bangalore, where celebrity couples handed over the devices to enthusiastic customers waiting in long queues to get their hands on the phone.

The device has the world's first Full HD Super AMOLED display to showcase images at their best. Its 5-inch large screen has 441ppi for stunning viewing quality. Equipped with a 13 megapixel rear camera, the phone enables users to take pictures in many different ways. Dual Shot allows simultaneous use of both front and rear cameras. Users can choose from a variety of frame effects, which blend the two pictures naturally. Drama Shot enables users to see all the action in one continuous time-lapse image. Sound & Shot stores sound and voice in unison as the picture is taken so those special moments are captured in the truest form imaginable. Animated Photo allows the user to take a series of shots and pick one part of the photo to move while the others stay still. 

Group Play enables users to enjoy music, photos, documents and games with those around them without requiring a Wi-Fi AP or cellular signal. Users can connect directly with others to share, play and co-create content and entertainment instantly. With Share Music, they can have the same song playing on multiple phones in sync to create the best party atmosphere. 

Smart enough to detect your face, voice and motions to enable screen control with no need for finger touch activation, this device delivers effortless tasking, making life easier and hassle-free. Air Gesture allows users to change the music track they are listening to with a wave of their hand. Air View will preview photos and emails by hovering over the screen with your finger. Samsung Smart Pause enables you to control the screen by where you look. When you are watching a video, the video pauses when you look away then it starts again when you look back. 

Lara Dutta summed up the device at the launch by saying, "It's truly designed to be a Life Companion."
