At Samsung’s New York City launch event for its latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S4, the company continued the “thumb in Apple’s eye” approach that has characterized its marketing campaigns of the past six months.

BO-RING! Every Android phone and tablet maker touts these specs because CPUs, image sensors, and displays are the rapidly evolving technology waves that they ride and where most of their evolution resides.
