The last couple of days have been fairly healthy with new devices from HTC, Samsung and even LG. While HTC hit it pretty big with the
One X, the U.S. version slated for AT&T is a somewhat of a disappointment. Don’t even get me started on the
HTC One S for T-Mobile. Samsung never officially did anything at MWC, but we still got a look at what is new from them. They showed of the Galaxy Note 10.1, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 2, and the Galaxy Beam. While those were pretty cool, especially the Beam, the one device that we all are waiting to see is the
Galaxy S III. We caught wind from a BGR inside source about the device being delayed for announcement to allow for a simultaneous global launch. The source also was said to confirm a ceramic battery door and a 4.8-inch screen. While those three details are just enough to entice, we all want more. WEll, they say they have managed to squeeze a few more details out of the source. Here is what is ‘supposedly’ confirmed.
- 1.5GHz quad-core Samsung Exynos processor
- 4.8-inch “full HD” 1080p resolution with 16:9 aspect ratio display
- A 2-megapixel front-facing camera and an 8-megapixel rear camera
- Ceramic case
- 4G LTE
- Android 4.0
Much of this was already speculated, but if the source is indeed a valid one, then these specs are an amazing. It would continue to put Samsung at the top of the manufacturer game and force the competition to really step up their game. Lets face it, if Samsung can bring the first quad-core 4G LTE enabled device to the states, HTC is toast.
We will keep or eyes and ears peeled for more information that appear credible. We are still going to stay skeptical of the newest information until we hear it directly from Samsung. Still though, the more information that emerges sure does make everything else seem like an OG RAZR to me.

Time for an update. I am the proud father of three, 2, 8, and 11. I finally just moved up from the Samsung Vibrant to the Samsung Galaxy S III...... Let me tell you, it is mind blowing. I love Android, I love tech and I love my family. Not in that order though. I work to hard, play even harder and take care of all that are around me when I can.

/facepalm A 1080p display on a smartphone and you’re talking about an irrelevant quad core… What app will use this feature?
LOL, it is what the people want. I could build an 8-core device with 3GB of RAM that didn’t do anything and people would buy it to say they have it. The future of quad-core is way beyond uncertain, in my opinion. I like Qualcomm’s approach of making the dual-core better and more efficient. To compete with Tegra 3 though, Samsung needs one too. It is all about what you have, not how well it works or what benefits it produces. On the other side of the coin, people said the same thing about dual-core when it was first introduced. Now those devices can do some pretty amazing things that my single core phone can’t do. Only time will tell really. As for the 1080p display, again, it is just about saying you have it. Just like the Samsung Beam. Is that a device that ‘needs’ to be built. Nope, but I sure as heck want one to say I have a projector on my phone.
yea idk about the 1080, you would have to re-write every app, or use what sammy puts on it, thats crazy, give me 720 and ill be happy
