Samsung's S4 active gone official before its big UK launch event. With IP67 water and dust protection (it'll survive three feet of water for up to 30 minutes), as well as a 5-inch 1080p display, there's a 1.9GHz quad-core processor to do the heavy lifting. Alongside LTE radios and Android 4.2.2, the GS4 Active houses an 8-megapixel camera with LED flash, while the front-facer will take shots up to two megapixels. For meteorologists, there's also a suitable outdoors-y barometer built in too. To match those outdoor credentials, there's a water-resistant headphone socket, Samsung's 'glove touch' screen tech meaning you'll be able to handle it with gloves and a special 'aqua mode' setting for the camera to improve all those underwater shots you're bound to take. The phone launches in the US and Sweden this summer, in Urban Grey, Dive Blue and Orange Flare color options. We're waiting on more pricing specifics, but Samsung promises we'll be able to test it in the flesh at the aforementioned London event.
