The beast released: Samsung Galaxy S III is official

Samsung has just unveiled its new flagship smartphone - the Android-running Galaxy S III. The ICS-running device has some big shoes to fill, but judging by that specs sheet, it might just be up to it.

It features a robust quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex A9 processor, operating on an Exynos 4212 Quad chipset. The display is a 4.8" HD (720 x 1280) Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen covered by Gorilla Glass.

The camera turned out to be 8MP in the long run, which is capable of 1080p video recording at 30fps, and comes with a 1.9MP front-facing camera for video calls. There's 1GB of RAM, and the S III will be sold in 16/32/64GB internal storage variants.

This is the Galaxy SIII

We just got an extremely nice email in our inbox.

We just received a couple of details and some good pictures of the Galaxy SIII.

The Galaxy SIII is based on Android 4.0.4 out of the box.

Another detail is that the GT-I9300 will be the Galaxy SIII.

GT-I9300 Service Manual specifications and sketch

We just received this specifications and sketch of the device from an insider who got it from the GT-I9300 (most likely the Galaxy S3) official Service Manual.

See the image below!

As you can see the Galaxy S3 will sport a homebutton, and will have a NEW type of Super Amoled screen which will measure 4.8″. According this manual the Processor speed is clocked at 1.5 GhZ, which is strange because Samsung introduced today their 1.4 GhZ Quad-Core processor.

Unfortunatly the camera won’t be a 12 mp according this spec list however this could be one of the first service manuals according our inside.

Later we will post more info as it comes along.

Update: here is the sketch of the back
