As expected, Samsung Australia has confirmed that the Galaxy S 4 will arrive in the country with Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 chipset in tow.

We reported less than three weeks ago that Samsung’s upcoming flagship smartphone would be packed with Qualcomm’s processor, but the South Korean company has not confirmed it until today.

AusDroid reports that the handset maker has just issued a short statement confirming that the Galaxy S 4 for Australia is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 600 processor:

“Samsung Australia is today confirming that the Samsung GALAXY S 4 will be available in Australia with the Quad-core 1.9 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon Series 600 processor and 4G LTE compatibility.

“Globally, the majority of GS4 LTE versions will come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon while 3G versions will be equipped with Samsung Exynos.”

It is also worth mentioning that some countries will get both versions of Galaxy S 4, but Samsung has yet to offer more details on this. Stay tuned for more updates on the matter.
