Samsung GALAXY S III Headed to Mobilicity - MobilEgypt

Samsung has confirmed Mobilicity is among the Canadian carriers that will offer the Galaxy S III this summer. Although the South Korean company has yet to announce the complete schedule for the Galaxy S III launch in Canada, rumor has it that the device might arrive as early as June. Europeans will be able to purchase the Galaxy S III beginning May 30, but the North American variant will be released a bit later and most likely with a different specs sheet. Given the fact that the Exynos 4212 Quad chipset that powers the recently announced Galaxy S III does not feature LTE support, which is mandatory for the US smartphone market, Samsung is forced to replace it with another chipset that offers this feature. According to the latest hearsay, the Galaxy S III will arrive in the US with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S4 chipset that features LTE technology. However, it appears that at least one Canadian carrier won’t be coming with the said chipset manufactured by Qualcomm. As we reported yesterday, Rogers Galaxy S III will pack LTE support and Samsung’s “new Exynos processor,” a Google ad claims. There’s no telling whether this is a mistake or Samsung is indeed on its own all-in-one solution for the Galaxy S III. While Mobilicity confirmed it would add the Samsung Galaxy S III to its portfolio of Android devices, the carrier did not disclose any details regarding the phone’s availability or pricing. No other information on the model specifications has been announced for the moment, but more details might leak in the following weeks. Stay tuned for more updates on the matter. “Mobilicity is excited to be working with Samsung on the Canadian launch of the Galaxy S III smartphone. It’s a state-of-art device that’s sure to take user performance to smart new heights, made affordable on our unlimited talk, text and data network ,” said Stewart Lyons, president and chief operating officer.
