New Cell Phones

By the time the new Samsung SGH-i667 Windows phone comes out, the Android Galaxy S III will be "old news" and will be on every carrier. What I find interesting is that if this is a GS3 WP8 device, if they have 32GB of ROM with a removable MicroSD card slot (which supposedly WP8 will support), how this will affect the other OEMs decision to support MicroSD expansion.

I’ll start a rumor………..this phone will most likely end up with all the major carriers with different tweaks/names. I’ll wager we won’t see the physical home key on any of the US models though. Please Samsung… let the quad-core Exynos be US LTE compliant.

While it looks like a great device, I’m disappointed that they didn’ t go with SAMOLED+. I think HTC has the better device this year with the One X.

Don’t WORRY this will appear on Verizon first why because the best network always gets the best devices. It will also appear on Sprint but that won’t be till July or August at best. This will be a middle June or July release on Verizon. I applaud Samsung for this device but I want to see the GALAXY Note 2

I think the new Samsung Galaxy S III is a really nice looking phone. It’s simple looking. I like simple looking. Also, having a MicroSD is a huge selling point for me. I’m disappointed in the screen. Other than the underwhelming physical design it’s exactly what I was hoping for. It has a larger user accessible battery and a MicroSD slot. As long as the price point is reasonable I think it will be my next phone. International version seems very promising. Let’s hope the US version doesn’t get stripped of the quad core.

Let me just first say that the phone looks really nice.  It looks very sleek and comfortable to hold.  However all these pictures are great but lets not kid ourselves here, the US variants will be different than the international versions. I guarantee that the AT&T, Sprint and Tmobile versions will not have the single button on the bottom of the screen.  Instead they will opt to have the soft buttons (Back, Home, and Multitask) like the HTC One X.  The AT&T and Tmobile version will look pretty much like these photos above but I expect Sprint will make modifications or rename the product like the Epic 4G Touch. Also the US versions won’t be using the quad core Exynos chip since it doesn’t support LTE. I can bet that they will be using the S4 dual core chip like the One X.

The Samsung Galaxy S III release date is sooner rather than later – the S III will launch globally in May, and a 4G LTE version it will come to the US later on this summer…
The S III will be available from the end of May in Europe before rolling out to other markets globally.

That’s a pretty sexy looking device. Not sure if it’s the real Galaxy S III, but it’s not bad at all. This phone is in a case. You can however see the rounded edges clearly that belongs to the phone. I can bet that the actual GS3 will be the phone in the picture without the external plastic frame. If you look closely, the inner phone looks exactly like the drawing in the leaked manual.

Congrats to you all at Verizon. Looks like game over for AT&T…..no SGN and no S3 for the near future.

The new Galaxy S III coming to Verizon is some of the best news I’ve heard all year. No mention of LTE is not good news for availability in the USA. HSPA only would mean it’s an  "international" phone, but I have to believe LTE is a requirement for both Verizon, AT&T and maybe Sprint. This could mean a late Summer or Fall availability for USA devices.
I’m sure all major carriers will get the Galaxy SIII. It just comes down to carriers announcing it. Like Samsung said they want to sell 10 million Galaxy Notes it wont happen if they don’t release it on all major carriers.

Samsung Galaxy S III key features:

• 1.4 GHz Exynos 4 Quad (Exynos 4412, quad-core A9)
• high-definition Super AMOLED display
• 4G LTE
• Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
