Update: Samsung confirms quad-core CPU for 'next Galaxy' handset
Having officially confirmed the existence of the Samsung Galaxy S3 when questioned in a recent profits call Korean tech giant Samsung has yet to give the Galaxy S II follow-on its first official outing.
According to Eldar Murtazin, Editor in Chief of Mobile-review Samsung Galaxy S3 production has already begun and will feature the same ceramic technology that has been used on recent HTC handsets.
Although Samsung has remained somewhat cagey about outing key details of its next-generation flagship Android handset the device has made a number of premature appearances with much rumour and speculation surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S3 arrival.
Samsung Galaxy S3 Release Date
Long expected to make its first official appearance as the star of MWC 2012 Samsung has now confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy S3 release date will be pushed back until after the Barcelona based show with the handset to be show off closer to the final Samsung Galaxy S3 UK release date.
“Samsung is looking forward to introducing and demonstrating exciting new mobile products at Mobile World Congress 2012,” an official Samsung spokesperson said. “The successor to the GALAXY S II smartphone will be unveiled at a separate Samsung-hosted event in the first half of the year, closer to commercial availability of the product.”
Although yet to officially confirm when the handset will be made available in store to consumers and wannabe owners, the Korean tech behemoth has issues press invites to the handset's official unveiling with the eagerly awaited handset to make its first public appearance in London on May 3rd.
Whilst the official unveiling is still a few days away Samsung has teased the upcoming arrival of its next-generation smartphone offering with a new handset teaser trailer that whilst not confirming anything has hinted at a number of the device's design and spec features with the carfully chosen wording used.
Kicking off with a suggested inclusion of the heavily rumoured new curved backed design, “Where a Galaxy fits perfectly into your hand”, the trailer also hints at a higher resolution display, “Your view of the world grows ever wider”, and the largely expected quad-core processor, “As you gain the power to explore it freely and swiftly.”
