New 'Apple-neutral'  Samsung Galaxy S III commercial airs

New 'Apple-neutral' Samsung Galaxy S III commercial airs

Posted on Jun 14, 2012 by MG1

Samsung and Apple have been going at it for seemingly an eternity. Both rip each other in the press, courtroom, and commercials – especially in Samsung’s case. The Korean based manufacturer is notorious for producing ads that take shots at Apple. This known fact tends to irk many technology fans, because the company should be spending its money and time illustrating to folks why its products are better.
This time around, Samsung has chosen a different path. The company’s Galaxy S III commercial focuses on its new tagline: “Designed for Humans.” Ironically, Apple finds this slogan in their words “Too narrow.”

C Spire joins the Samsung Galaxy S III craze, too

Posted on Jun 13, 2012 by MG1

Aside from AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Verizon – regional carrier C Spire will also launch the hot-new Samsung Galaxy S III, offering it on its “personalized 4G LTE network,” which also happen to be the only such network in the States. Whatever…
Exact pricing and retail availability are still unknown and will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
C Spire will initially launch 4G LTE services in 20 Mississippi markets beginning in September, covering 2,700 square miles and a population of 1.2 million. In other words, that’s four out of every 10 consumers and businesses in Mississippi with wireless data speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. The full list of cities that will get the co...

Judge says launch of Samsung Galaxy S III will proceed on June 21st

Judge says launch of Samsung Galaxy S III will proceed on June 21st

Posted on Jun 13, 2012 by MG1

Apple has tried hard to throw a wrench into the upcoming launch of the Samsung Galaxy S III in the States. Already proclaimed the fastest selling gadget of all time with 9 million units pre-sold not including the U.S. and Canada, the Cupertino based firm has had its top legal minds ready to toss in any motion at the eleventh hour, seeking to stop the release of the handset.
Instead, the plan just might have backfired as Judge Lucy Koh said late Monday that Apple's push to get an injunction on the Samsung Galaxy S III would overload her calendar especially since she is presiding over another Apple suit against other Samsung products. And Koh's decision has nothing to do with the merits of the...

While AT&T has confirmed the future availability of Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S III smartphone, the nation’s second largest carrier has not announced a release date.

U.S. Cellular on Monday announced that it will join the four major U.S. carriers in offering Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S III smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy S III coming to AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless and US Cellular this month

Samsung Galaxy S III coming to AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless and US Cellular this month

Posted on Jun 04, 2012 by MG1

Official is as official does... right? In a bid to one-up the Galaxy S II's launch here in the States, Samsung has just announced that five carriers will soon have their own customized versions of the Galaxy S III. And by "soon," we mean "beginning in June." AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless and US Cellular are all in line to take part, with exact pricing and availability to be announced by each of the five carriers in the coming weeks. We are, however, told to expect on-contract prices as low as $199, and it sounds as if all five variants will keep the same 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display.

Samsung posts Galaxy S III source code, modders start their engines

Samsung posts Galaxy S III source code, modders start their engines

Posted on Jun 01, 2012 by MG3

That was fast: just a few days after the Galaxy S III reached buyers' eager hands, Samsung has posted the phone's source code. Its dutiful clinging to Google's Android guidelines opens the floodgates to custom ROMs as well as a better sense of what makes Samsung's Android 4.0 variant tick. As you'd anticipate, the code is only valid for the international GT-i9300 version. North American models, for the time being, are left out. Still, the source is useful for most anyone that wants to tinker with what should be the most ubiquitous Google-powered phone of the year, so get to downloading if that sounds like you.

Canadian Samsung Galaxy S III announced: 2GB of RAM, 1.5GHz dual-core processor

Canadian Samsung Galaxy S III announced: 2GB of RAM, 1.5GHz dual-core processor

Posted on May 31, 2012 by MG3

The Canadian variant of the Samsung Galaxy S III will scrap the quad-core Exynos processor found in the European version and instead feature a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 processor. The Canadian handset, like the Japanese model, will also receive a RAM boost from 1GB to 2GB. It has already been confirmed that the Galaxy S III would be equipped with a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor on U.S. carriers with 4G LTE networks. It is unclear, however, if U.S. devices will also receive the RAM increase, although it does seem more likely now. The Samsung Galaxy S III will be available in Canada beginning June 20th.
