Samsung has confirmed that it will reveal the Samsung Galaxy S IV in New York on the 14 March.
The confirmation comes as the rest of the mobile phone industry gathers in Barcelona to see what the industry has to offer, although we suspect that the news will now dominate the news headlines.
It will be the first US launch of Samsung's flagship Galaxy smartphone in 3 years, company spokeswoman Chenny Kim said.
"We introduced the Galaxy S III in London last year, and this time we changed the venue (to New York) ... as we were bombarded with requests from US mobile carriers to unveil the Galaxy S IV in the country," Samsung Electronics' mobile division chief JK Shin was quoted as saying on the Edaily news website, picked up by Reuters.
The date won't come as a surprise, having been widely rumoured previously, but the words of JK Shin do seem to confirm a continuation of Samsung's naming convention.
Otherwise, little is known about the next-generation Galaxy device from Samsung. It has been rumoured that a 4.99-inch 1080p display will front the device, along with debate about whether it will carry a Samsung Exynos processor, or the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 chipset found in the recently launched rival, the HTC One.
We're still awaiting the arrival of the traditional Samsung Unpacked invitation, which may give some further hints, but we suspect that Samsung will wait till after Mobile World Congress is concluded, so as not to overshadow the launch of its latest device, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0
