Samsung has received some 9 million pre-orders for its latest flagship Android smartphone Galaxy S III from more than 100 global carriers, reports the Korea Economic Daily. The 9 million pre-orders includes all devices on more than 290 carriers in over 145 countries, it certainly is an impressive amount and we suspect that the new Samsung Galaxy S III could end up being Samsung’s most popular Android handset to date. It’s not all over yet either, as there’s still 12 days to go until the phone is released, and networks such as T-Mobile and Vodafone in the UK have only [...]

Again, after a leak in last week, some additional details concerning the upcoming LG LS970 Android smartphone, also known as the LG Eclipse 4G LTE, have surfaced. Today, yet another, snap acquired by the folks over at BriefMobile, we can now spot a couple extra details on the device, where it will come with a removable battery and there’s NFC connectivity available, too. At the time, we got a quick look at what is supposed to be the phone’s rear cover, giving us a peak under the hood. According to the report, the LG Eclipse 4G LTE phone will be powered [...]

As of today, the T-Mobile UK has started taking pre-orders for the Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone. The carrier also revealed its full line-up of Samsung Galaxy S 3 price and availability plans. If you’re after a free handset, the cheapest contract is T-Mobile’s 14 month £41 Full Monty option, which comes with unlimited data, texts and calls to other T-Mobile phones as well as 2,000 any network minutes. Heavy users can check out T-Mobile’s 24-month “Full Monty” plan, which includes unlimited texts, data, TMobile-to-TMobile calls and 2000 minutes of calls to other networks. That’ll set you back £49.99 up-front, [...]

If a leaked benchmark test is anything to go by then it looks like LTE compatible Galaxy S III is going to be released with a dual-core rather than a quad-core processor. The main reason for this is probably 4G LTE, as Qualcomm’s chip is essentially the only one that can handle LTE at this point. However, the benchmarking site confirms what we’ve already known from earlier leaks and rumors. The smartphone features the model number SCH-I535, according to the site and this also indicates that the Verizon Galaxy S III will likely have a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core chip instead of the [...]

Heads up Sammy’ fans! Samsung UK, today, revealed that customers who have pre-ordered the Galaxy S III from the Samsung Brand Store at Westfield Stratford City will be able to collect their device the night before the official launch date of 30 May. That said, you can pop down from 6PM on May 29th and pick up your brand new Android-powered GSIII. This is for pre-orders only, so don’t go banging on the door to try and get yours until May 30th. Do remember also, pre-orders from retentions or online will also not be delivered to customers’ delivery addresses until [...]

Samsung announced its new 32nm Quad Exynos 4 processor with four computing cores and quad-core graphics. It comes with 4 ARM Cortex A9s and High-k Metal Gate (HKMG) low-power process technology, so it can be used in both smartphones and tablets. While, all of us were wondering if Samsung comes up with the same CPU for the Galaxy S III to run with, an unnamed Samsung executive claimed that, while the European version of the Galaxy S III will get the Exynos 4 Quad, US versions of the phone will go with a Qualcomm’s dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor instead, according to the [...]

We’ve already been keeping up with a whole bunch of rumors surrounding the coming launch of the Samsung Galaxy S III for months on end now. Though, with multiple “leaks” and images also hitting the web we’ve still never seen anything too convincing. But today, a new leaked picture of Galaxy S 3, you can see above, doesn’t look like other typical render. Previous renders have been either laughable or exaggerated at best, and for the first time ever. I think this is the real deal as this image has been allegedly snapped by a person who claims to have [...]

A set of newly-leaked images have landed online Thursday, giving us a clear look at a handset from LG, headed for Sprint and Virgin Mobile.  PocketNow managed to grab press renders for both Sprint’s (pictured in white) and Virgin Mobile’s (black) respective Optimus Elite variants. Expected to be the first NFC enabled device to be offered on a pre-paid wireless carrier, the LG Optimus Elite is also rumored to pack a 3.2-inch (480 × 320) display, 800MHz processor, 5MP camera with Flesh and of course, near field communications for making quick transactions at your local Kwik-E-Mart. Either would cling mostly to [...]

Another day, another possible leaked photo of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S III smartphone has made it to the web. However, we took you on a tour of the images that have leaked out or so claiming to be the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S III. Though, we took all the rumors with a pound of a salt instead of pinch. I hate the vast majority of rumors. The Galaxy S III rumors that we’ve been hearing for about a week now – first a potential render leaked (though we didn’t like the looks of it). The images you see above are being labeled as [...]

A new yet to be released LG Android smartphone has been spotted online. Codenamed LG Optimus LTE P936, the new phone was reportedly popped up on

I still suggest you guys to take these new rumors with a pinch of salt, but these new two leaks seem slightly more credible than most of the previous ones. The newest in a line of Samsung Galaxy S III clues is a press photo provided by a group, namely GSM Helpdesk, which claims it is the final straight-on look at the next-generation smartphone (image shown above). The image is supposedly an official press shot, and the timing makes some sense, since an image leaked last week looked alike enough, but the other one was rumored to being faked. The most interesting thing [...]

The hype around Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S III smartphone is high and it is expected to grow further before the mobile phone becomes officially available, and even after that. Though Wireless charging isn’t anything new for Android, but the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S III may be the first device to include the feature right out of the box (and wireless charging system that is able to charge the device even when it is 1-2 meters away from the charging station), according to DDaily. Officially confirmed for the first half of this year, the handset is nowhere to be seen for [...]
