It's finally here! After months and months of speculation and anticipation, the Samsung Galaxy S4 has officially hit our Malaysian tech market.

So yes… in the palm of my hand right now, lies the latest smartphone of them all.

The SAMSUNG Galaxy S4 : Life companion

kini di pasaran!

It was a sunny Saturday last weekend.  I made sure theboyfie and I dressed up in blue in spirit of a huge function set to take the entire Klang Valley by storm.

Jessicat wears:

Grafitti skull tank in blue by Radioactive |  Denim skirt in white by Padini | Accessories by Nichii |

Supernova Check Hearts (limited edition) in Berry Red by Burberry | Classic Suede in blue by PUMA

All decked in shades of blue. So.. where were we going? And why blue?

This explains everything.

Check out the amount of people celebrating the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4!

The convoy of vehicles has just arrived one of the destinations – Sunway Pyramid!

Guess what came out of these Galaxy S4 vehicles?

It was a mass parade of performers! 

Cheerleaders going hard with their stunts and tight routines!

Big bands performing thumping rhythms!

Their outfits somehow reminded me of American alternative rock band, My Chemical Romance 

The celebration at Sunway Pyramid saw heaps of people jostling to be part of the action

What's not to be excited about? It was the launch of the most anticipated phone and not forgetting…

FREE ICE-CREEEEEAAM!! Awwwwyeah! 

The party didn't end right there. 

The troop of Galaxy S4 vehicles convoyed to the city and made its final stop at Low Yat Plaza KL.

There was more in store for us in this gigantic Galaxy S4 truck

No celebration is EVER complete without brightly-coloured helium balloons and bursts of shimmery confetti!

It was a total Disney 'UP' moment right there 

Music and more acts were performed back-to-back

Throngs of people gathered at the location to join the fun.

It was no surprise that merriment filled the air instantly.

Pretty epic video! The launch day was really a success 

Once the joyous occasion at the entrance of Low Yat Plaza was over, people hurriedly made their way inside to catch the unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy S4 at the Celcom Blue Cube outlet. I followed suit.

I stepped in soon after to check out the famed Galaxy S4 for myself.

After briefly playing and exploring the Galaxy S4, the amount of mind-blowing and interactive features definitely surpasses most of its competitors in the market, while maintaining its simplicity. 

Among all, here are the top 3 things I fancy most about the Samsung Galaxy S4.

It was undeniably thin and feather-light weight for a smartphone – 130 grams only!

I loved its bright, clear, super-sharp and optimized full HD super AMOLED display. The colours were vibrant but not glaring to the eye too; which works best for me, as I always use my phone under the covers late at night before I sleep.

Built at 136.6 x 69.8 x 7.9 mm, the size was just the perfect fit for my palm

The Air View/Air Gesture feature

But no, I'm not casting a magic spell, but I was actually scrolling through images in the gallery! 

Without even touching the screen and smudging fingerprint stains on it, the Galaxy S4 performs my commands according to the motion of my hand.

It enlarges photos, previews emails, speed dials and much more with the slightest hover of your hand or finger.

Pasti seronok. Memang ghairah sungguh! Aku tak henti-henti main dengan fon baru nih haritu.

Kalo main kat tengah-tengah malam hitam pita tentu nampak macam bomoh kan? Hahahaha.

The Smart Pause/Smart Scroll feature

Just when you thought telekinesis will never be possible with technology, you're wrong. 

The Galaxy S4 knows what you're doing and adapts accordingly to what you want. by automatically scrolling down when you're reading. When you're watching something, say, a movie or a video clip, it automatically pauses when you look away (or yawn!) or when somebody interrupts you.

This is so that you won't miss anything! It also automatically resumes when you want to watch it again by looking at the screen.

Might consider switching sides soon. This beauty is truly one wicked gadget! 

Macam-macam kelebihanye! Skarang, sape nak beli? Hehe.

I don't recall how excited everyone can get over a smartphone. 

The very moment I posted about being at the Samsung Galaxy S4's teaser event at The Curve, my phone was ringing off the hook! 

Geez, guys! I know you're excited, but hold your horses, will you? Haha! 

I've got neverending questions like, "When will it be launched?", "Is this phone good?", "How much will it be?", "Will there be a plan/telco package for it?", "Where will it be launched?", "Exact location and map of the launch please?", "Do you recommend this phone?", "What are the new features of this phone?" and the list goes on. 

But don't worry, you guys were not the only ones anticipating the Samsung Galaxy S4

The crowd began to build up just to watch the sporadic mini orchestral peformance last Friday

Bumped into buddySam! 

Four amazing vocalists (I could hear the alto, soprano and vocal sound effects being sung in harmony!) were belting out latest chart-topping hits; with a twist. 

What twist? Well, I'll let you judge for yourself… whether or not you recognize this tune. 

Galaxy S4 is coming! So get ready for your mind to be blown!

Yup, it's Lady Gaga – Edge of Glory 

Not to forget the amazing string quartet as well.

The violinists and cello player  were so melodiously in sync!

Everyone was buzzing about to take photos of them and to

catch a glimpse of what was going on in the crowd

It was a hive of activity at the open space of The Curve that evening

Everyone was so amused when they heard the choir-orchestra band sing and play songs that they recognize but incorporating Galaxy S4 into the lyrics.

Rather clever, I reckon! Quite a jingle, they've achieved.  That song has been stuck in my head all weekend LOL

I also went home with a whole bunch of colourful balloons! 

For those of you who were asking me anxiously about the phone, check out the official Samsung Galaxy S4 introduction video.

Such an amazing video highlighting the key features of the Samsung S4

Such an amazing smartphone, right? It's so revolutionary and magnificent. I'm almost sold! 

Looking at my clammy iPhone 4S, I can't help but to think… perhaps its time to switch sides? Heh. Heh. Heh.

I'm happy to be invited to attend to the official launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4 – something I wouldn't miss for the world. 

Can't wait to hold the Samsung S4 in my very own hands and explore/play around with its incredible new features for myself.

All details regarding the phone and happenings of the launch party will be posted up on my blog after the event! 

But if you want to get real-time updates during the event itself, I will be posting it LIVE on:
