T-Mobile branded Samsung Galaxy S III press photo leaks

An alleged press photo for Samsung Galaxy S III for T-Mobile has leaked out, thus revealing the design of one of the carrier versions of the US bound smartphone. Perhaps the biggest surprise about the handset's appearance is that it is, well, identical to the international I9300. The same goes for its color scheme.

Samsung Galaxy S III to launch on five US carriers this June

Samsung has announced that it will be launching the highly anticipated Galaxy S III smartphone in US on not two or three but five major carriers. The phones will go on sale beginning this June and will have a starting price of $199, although the exact launch date and price will be announced separately by the individual carriers later.

Leaked screenshot of U.S. Cellular's internal system shows the Samsung Galaxy S III

A leaked screenshot of the internal computer system of U.S. Cellular shows that the regional carrier could be among the mobile operators in the States to offer the Samsung Galaxy S III. Based on a couple of entries in the carrier's computer system, the 16GB variant of the device will be made available in either white or blue. None of the U.S. carriers has yet to officially announce the device, easily the most anticipated Android phone of the year with 9 million units pre-ordered overseas. As we've told you, that makes the Samsung Galaxy S III the fastest selling device in history.

Samsung Galaxy S III on pre-order from Expansys

The Samsung Galaxy S III is already starting to appear up for pre-order for early buyers, but while on Amazon it costs a hefty $800, the new listing for the Galaxy S III on Expansys USA prices it at the much more affordable $694.99.

The handset sells unlocked and with no carrier ties, so that means you can freely use it anywhere in the world.  Also, placing the pre-order now wouldn’t charge your credit card and the website will still ask you if you really want to but the phone when it’s in stock. All of that comes with no cancellation charges, so for those of you wishing to be among the first to get the SGS III, this seems like a good option.

Of course, you can always wait for the carrier versions of the SGS III. After all, you’d probably still need to sign up a contact to get a relatively good deal on data. The price on contract will be much less, between $200 and $300.
