Samsung Mobile US today tweeted the above image, teasing the appearance of its forthcoming Galaxy S IV device in silhouette. The device pictured looks not-dissimilar to the leaked in-hand pictures from China we saw this morning.

Bumping up the gamma on Samsung’s official image shows the screen area quite clearly. When placed side-by-side with this morning’s leak, it seems all but certain that we’ve seen the Galaxy S IV.

Still not convinced? OK, let’s overlay them:

Samsung’s official image is likely to be a render, modified to remove unsightly features like the speaker grille and the holes for the front-facing camera and light sensors, and subtly draw attention to the Samsung logo. That render is likely to be based on actual dimensions, which is why we’re comfortable matching the images.

One thing’s for sure – all will be revealed at Samsung’s Unpacked event.

Are you convinced that the leaked Chinese Galaxy S IV is real? Let us know the comments!
