Thanks.

We might have a color choice Samsung Galaxy S3 launching in blue and white?

This initial image makes sense now.

Even better are the new screenshots showing a VZW UAProf page indicating it is running on a VZW network... nice!

Does not use the quad core due to USA 3G+LTE issues of course but rather that nice S4 dual... but at this stage, I will take it

Wow! That thing is going to be a monster! I like that it's longer vs wider to get the screen real estate.
That's a great pre-release pic, I'm so excited about the S3 and the Evo.... choices, choices!

Yup. Whatever happens tomorrow will decide what I'll get between those two phones.

I think engadget are covering it ? probably wont be video but a live blogging type deal
androidcentral.com say they will be there too. I guess phandroid will send someone too

Hmm, just reading comments on gsmarena, apparently the items have no been removed from their system..

AndroidifyMe · May 2, 2012

The Samsung Unpacked app will be streaming it.

You could also download the Samsung Unpacked 2012 app from Google Play and watch from there. I know I will along with another source just incase.

EDIT: Got ninja'd, lol

It starts at 3pm from the east coast based on the unpacked app countdown timer.

Engadget link with a handy localised time translation:

Samsung unpacks the Galaxy tomorrow, we'll be liveblogging the London event right here! -- Engadget

Except the date is wrong.. they copied it from the Apple event :rolleyes:

Time is correct though.

Galaxy S III size and shape revealed by Korean screen protector company | Android Community

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that could indicate a nexus-like full screen, no physical buttons device? The little gap at the bottom is probably for the mic rather than a home button?

*fingers crossed*

Crafty · May 2, 2012

nah, you wouldn't need a hole anywhere near that big for the microphone, look how small the speaker one is. The microphone is probably built in to the bezel - my original desire has a hole probably 0.5mm x 1mm next to the usb connector. The hole in the screen protector is for a button.

BaronOfBlood · May 2, 2012

That home button may not be on the U.S. version though

AndroidifyMe · May 2, 2012

Just a few more hours. I can't wait. This makes me want to switch to GSM as my second carrier. I was so quick to add Verizon as my second carrier beside Sprint for the Galaxy Nexus, but now that Google is passing out the Nexus on the Play Store (getting official updates) it makes me want to have GSM.

powdbyrice · May 3, 2012

Dang, I'm going to be at Disneyland at 1100!

I guess no better place to get good news than the happiest place on earth, right?

I have the exact same thought. I have been with VZW for 7 years but I'm so fed up with the way they handle android updates and releasing high end phones. They are just flooded with Motoblur devices and most high end HTC, Samsung phones are going to AT&T-mobile as of late. If GSIII model with Exynos comes to GSM carrier in US, I will strongly consider switching carrier.

CAN'T. WAIT. ITS. ALMOST. HERE.

lol

I have to leave home and go see my instructor at college. I have the app but i have crappy VM 3G. I wanna move to GSM sometime in the fall.
