SAMSUNG LATEST PRODUCT | SAMSUNG LATEST UPDATE | SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UPDATE | RELEASE DATE OF SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 | SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 NEWS

Samsung Galaxy S3 was officially introduced a month ago at Samsung Unpacked event in London and it already hit more than 28 markets so far.


Previous rumors have indicated that the Samsung Galaxy S3 might hit the second largest US carrier on June 18th, but the guys at droidmatters have new details about the flagship’s availability.






 The Europeans were the first to get their hands on Samsung’s new flagship and new the US market is getting ready to receive the freshly-announced handset.


 One of their readers, who is an AT&T customer, sent in a photo from AT&T’s pre-order page that indicates that Galaxy S3 will be shipped “on or before” June 21st.


Therefore AT&T joins the list of carries that will launch the Samsung Galaxy S3 on June 21st, after T-Mobile and Sprint already announced that the dual-core smartphone will arrive on their shelves on the aforementioned date. On the other hand, US’ biggest carrier, Verizon will make Galaxy S3 available for purchase on July 9th.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 variant for the US market will bring the American customers reasons to cheer as it will sport 4G LTE connectivity and 2 GB of RAM.

 But the LTE support comes at an expense, as, in US, the Samsung flagship will come with a Qualcomm dual-core Snapdragon S4 chipset instead of the mighty quad-core Exynos 4 Quad processor.

Besides Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich, Samsung Galaxy S3 comes with impressive features like S-Voice (a rival for Apple’s Siri), S-Beam (high-speed file transfer via NFC and WiFi Direct), Burst Shot and Best Photo (takes 20 photos in burst mode, chooses the best one and deletes the rest), Smart Stay (using eye-tracking technology, the display won’t dim off as long you are looking at it), Pop up play (allows to user to watch a video in windowed mode on any homescreen) and many other such treats.

Except for the RAM and chipset, Samsung Galaxy S3 will have the same technical specs as the international model: 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display, 32 GB of internal storage and 50 GB of Dropbox free storage for two years, 8 megapixel camera with LED flash and full HD video recording capabilities, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, DLNA, Wi-Fi Direct, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB 2.0 and NFC chip.

SAMSUNG LATEST PRODUCT | SAMSUNG LATEST UPDATES| Samsung Drops One of The Lawsuits Against Apple

However, it will continue to fight against Apple for other infringement suits.

In what would seem like a strange chain of events, Samsung has now dropped the lawsuit it had filed against Apple in California. This lawsuit was originally filed in response to latter's lawsuit claiming that the Galaxy range of smartphones and tablets are heavily inspired by its iPad and iPhone. Bloomberg reports that the incident took place on June 30. The source quoted Nam Ki Yung as saying that this move is to "streamline the legal proceedings". Yung is a spokesman for a company based in Suwon, South Korea.

However, this doesn't mean that Samsung is going on the back foot; the company will still fight the legal battle against Apple for patent rights, including a case it had filed in the same court in San Jose, California. Interestingly, Apple is Samsung's biggest customer, bringing in billions of dollars for the company. Reports claim that the Cupertino-based company is considering Taiwanese manufacturer TSMC to replace Samsung as its primary components manufacturer \ supplier. Its A6 chipset is coming out next year and Samsung apparently will not be making them. It must be noted that the Korean conglomerate would not be worried about how things pan out for them, because they are a larger corporation than Apple. Nevertheless, the transition will not leave it completely unscathed, though not to the extent of having sleepless nights.


samsung has a great reputation in the market.Apple had initiated the lawsuit stating design infringements by Samsung, which was later followed by both companies asking the court to grant them access to each other's prototype devices. However, the court favoured the former by granting them permission to see the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy Tab 10.1, while denying the latter, permission to have a look at the iPhone 5 and the iPad 3. The reason for Samsung to withdraw the lawsuit still remains a mystery, and we will have to wait until Samsung makes an official statement.
