Samsung Galaxy S3 Rumors Compiled, A Day Before London Launch

A day before the much anticipated London launch (dubbed as Samsung Unpacked) of Samsung Galaxy S3, it is just right for us to compile all the rumors we’ve heard since the first quarter this year. For those who haven’t known yet, Samsung will be launching its newest flagship in the form of Samsung Galaxy S3 on May 3rd in London. It is during this time that all the necessary information we need to know about the handset will be revealed. Hopefully, the Korean manufacturer would also reveal the real release date and the suggested retail price. Those who cannot come to the launch can stream the even through the official Facebook page of Samsung.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Processor. Just like all the rest, we are also expecting high specs to come with this handset. And so far, what we’ve known about Galaxy S3 is that it will sport Samsung’s trademarked quad-core Exynos processor (CPU). Although, we have already heard that originally, it was nVidia Tegra 3 quad-core CPU that the company was eyeing. In fact, the prototype device uses it as revealed by the people who have had their hands on it. And just recently, there was a rumor suggesting that Galaxy S3 LTE for the United States will be using a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon due compatibility issues.
Samsung Galaxy S3 Key Features. With a powerful CPU, it follows that the handset will be sporting a 1 GB random access memory (RAM) to ensure smooth operation. It always has been the practice of the manufacturers and it seems the having 1 GB RAM is the highest smart phones today could ever achieve. The display was rumored to be 4.6 or 4.8 inches featuring the Super AMOLED display technology by Samsung. It will also be adorned with TouchWiz interface on top of the native Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich design and flexibility.
Galaxy S3 As Official Olympics Device. Samsung is pushing its new flagship to become the 2012 London Summer Olympics official device. It is one of the biggest marketing strategies and popularity stunts done by the company to ensure people would know a new high-end smart phone has just been released. This is probably the reason why the company chose London as the venue for the launching of this powerful handset. The fact is, it is not the first time that Samsung would be sponsoring this big event. One of the ways the company gets revenue is sponsoring big sports events around the globe.
Samsung Galaxy S3 Photos. Of course, photos have been leaked online. Since the first quarter, there have already been photos claimed to be the official photographs of the handset. Others claimed they have taken it from a friend who works at Samsung. However, they all end up being criticized for being bogus. Most of them are photoshopped and others are just imitations. We’ve been hearing reports that a company in China has been manufacturing smartphones based on the rumored specs of Samsung Galaxy S3; the same size, the same attributes and all that. So, unless we can see photos from the company itself, we don’t have to believe what we can find online.
So far, every rumor we’ve heard have been compiled in this post. The reason why we publish this is so that people would be able to know how true are the rumors once the official device is launched less than a day from now in London. You may have known some other rumors or claims from other people about Samsung Galaxy S3 but with the launch happening in the following hours, you cannot afford to believe on those things. Let’s wait and see what Samsung has in store for us who were intently waiting for the real revelation.
