Less than two weeks, that's how much you have to wait until that special Samsung Unpacked event on May 3 in London when everything will be clear to everyone who is expecting the follow-up to the insanely successful Samsung Galaxy S II.
There's been Apple-like buzz (and Cupertino-like secrecy) around the Galaxy S III but it looks like we might have a first look at what to expect. The device pictured above and the one starring in the video below is claimed to be the Galaxy S III. However, it's not the Galaxy S III you'll hold in your hand as it is encased in a dummy plastic case in order to protect its sexy looks.
You want specs? Here you go: 1.4GHz quad-core CPU, 1GB of RAM, 4.6-inch Super AMOLED HD display with 320 PPI, no hardware buttons (yay), eight-megapixel main camera with LED flash and 1080p video recording, 16GB internal storage (plus microSD card expansion slot), NFC, microSIM, 2,050mAh battery and Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich with TouchWiz on top of it.
That being said, the Galaxy S III (or whatever the final name will be) is not a mystery anymore -- granted that the above leak is legit -- except for its final aspect. Check out the video below and let us know of your thoughts. HTC One X killer? Android king for a year?
For what it's worth, the original story with the pictures and video are down which adds more credibility to the entire report. However, thanks to the Internet, there's a copy floating around and more pictures at the Via link.

If you had any doubts on Samsung developing the next Nexus phone, this should be an official confirmation. UAProf of GT-I9250 aka Nexus Prime has been listed on Samsung Mobile’s site. Apart from the name, the profile listing also claims the screen resolution to be WVGA (800×480) . However, previous rumors have suggested Nexus Prime to have an HD resolution display.
Nexus Prime will be the first device to run Android’s Ice Cream Sandwich OS and feature Bluetooth 3.0, dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n amongst other things.

I would somewhat assume the screen to be on par with the Charge. That's seems too new for them to be jumping ship to a newer screen technology. The original AMOLED soldiered on for nearly 2 years.

Yeah, if that's the actual screen resolution, I'm a bit disappointed. I've read that Samsung may have, in fact, purposely falsified this information in anticipation of it getting out to the public. Similar to what HTC does...
800x480 just doesn't cut it anymore!
Err, 1x1 ratio?
Sent from my Droid Incredible running some random CM7 nightly.
I found this at www.sammobile.com!
Look at it:

Oh my god, its BEAUTIFUL! Just look at that design .. ! Imagine that beauty with the next exynos processor, a HD resolution, 1.5 Gig of ram and who know what else..
What do you think?
Sammobile's thread says this:
"The picture above could be true for several reasons: Weber Shandwick is one (or even the) largest PR agency in the world, including here in Germany, Weber Shandwick operates in several sectors, along with Samsung. (This is also very good, I made the best possible experience with those so far). The picture could also originate from an internal document at Weber Shandwick, which to hold a Unpacked event on intended to holdon May 22nd!
So what can we see if we take a clo.es look at this picture. To start with the bezel it is really really small!
We see a shutter-button for the camera FINALLY.
Besides, the design fits the Galaxy S3. Loudspeaker front, above and below the display- a perfect match to the current design line from Samsung. Look at the Galaxy S WiFi4.2 or 1.10 of the Galaxy note, both are the display next to the speakers!
If true, the picture above, it also directly teaser unpacked a Samsung event for 22 May in London - in my opinion, very likely. On 22 May announce where a few weeks later, the Olympic Games will begin to quickly put on the market on time and to have the Olympic Games 2012 Samsung Galaxy S3 in the shops. In my view, could vote at Reddit surfaced image that is so loose - I hope even on it. Then you would have a date and place, I can plunder my account for the plane and the speculation goes in another direction!
May 22nd is the approximate date that the London Olympic Torch Relay starts – of which Samsung are a major sponsor – so this date and event in London make total sense.

Update 11:05
Eldar Murtazin (Russian tech blogger) SGS3 is different but thats one is closest to final design
What do you think of its design leave a comment below.

There's already a dedicated thread for SIII discussion. No need to start a new one when the picture was already posted in there...

And yet it's ICS....
Pff...if the Chinese have Samsung beaten on building an ICS for their phone...
Ironic, we don't yet have a proper leak yet...
LOL! Chinese are real fast
wish the flash was in the right place, i want one of those battery covers
800x480 on a 5.3" screen? The pixels must be big as euro coins!

yup, that is not samsung note... but a fake one... maybe we should call "clone"? but if the price is very cheap, maybe can buy one for try...hahaha XD
Siamesung.......
so from looking at the specs... its basically a dell streak in portrait mode...

Tbh, that's not bad! It's just a shame there's no mention of other details, like how much storage there is and if it does support SDHC-cards. One can also see what looks like S-Pen, but I do not know if it's just for the looks or if it is actually functional.
I know several people who could actually use this phone just fine.
I can't even imagine how much of a headache it would be going phone shopping in China. We should all have that problem.
the samesung fauxlaxy clnotned?
Samesung, Nukia, and Motorolo.
Salute China.

Edit: Upon closer inspection, the first picture in the link does NOT have an S-Pen. The third seems to show one. Either way... no thanks.
Also, the flash is different between the first picture and the third... If it's more like the third then I want that back-piece!
yes, but there are two different versions, one is 5.3 the other is 5.0

i heard it is the best phone, with pen and leather case, help can help you.
Hey guys, I just need some help checking if this method is sound. I came up with it in the car just about an hour ago. The basic jist is just a uniform standardised way of comparing processors. Let me know what you think. Link Below

It'll make more sense if you read the explanation first.

Well, it still does not solve the problem of weighing both between the tests and possible within each test run.
So the question still would be "11% better for what?".
Interesting..

Sorry, I’m not sure if I follow the first half of the question but in response to the second half.
It doesn't really work that. Each processor would naturally have their pros and cons so one processer would be “better” at some things than the other, but this is a final overall average-comparative method.
The method strictly compares 2 phones while reducing the sensitivity of processor bias within tests on a standardised scale. Maybe it would be best to Imagine if each percent was a unit on this comparative scale.
It that would finally state something like: “The Nexus 4 scores 11.9 Units against the galaxy note II”
Which is not major where as something line “The galaxy note II scores 55 Units against the galaxy note 1” is massive and you’d know that the note II is a lot better than the original.
I hope this all makes sense. Haha it’s just an idea let me know if you still think it’s rubbish
All it means that out of 100 things, the Nexus can handle 11 things better than the Note 2. The other 89 things performed par to par on both phones

Hey all
Lets take a first look at the Galaxy Note Edge. With Samsung showing off its curved displays recently, they've now applied it to a Smartphone. It's a very interesting concept, the right edge of the screen wraps around the device, giving an extra strip of screen along the edge. This can be used for a multitude of things, from Email/SMS notifications to multimedia control and some application shortcuts. Samsung is also releasing a SDK for developers, this could prove to be a very sensible move, as at present 3rd party apps will not be able to make use of the extra screen real estate. Really looking forward to what our great developers can do with this:good::highfive:
The screen is the Note Edge's stand-out feature, as under the hood is essentially a Galaxy Note 4 with a slightly reduced battery capacity (3,000 mAh rather than 3,220 mAh) due to the screen restricting space. The display itself is a 1,600 x 2,560 pixels, 524ppi affair, so puts it right up with the best displays available at present. A breakdown of specifications for both devices can be found in the [SPECS]Galaxy Note Edge and [SPECS]Galaxy Note 4 threads.
I'm very keen to get hands on with this device, the curved display really appeals. We're yet to see if it will be taken up by app developers, but if it does it could prove to be a killer feature. For some, especially if left handed, the experience may not be a great one, as the strip will be on the wrong side of the device. Samsung has addressed this by hinting it may allow the screen orientation to be flipped, so as long as the home button being at the top is workable, the problem should be solved to an extent. Looking forward to members thoughts on this possible ground breaking design:good:
