I once wrote a post which indicated that Samsung Galaxy S III would be released in May. And now, it’s time to prove what I wrote turns to be true. After all of rumors and speculations, we finally get official release news of Galaxy S III. It’s been confirmed officially that the Galaxy S III will go on sale in Europe on May 23, yet still no official word on a U.S. launch, but it could come this summer.

The Galaxy S III comes with amazing phone features for all fans and smartphone users. The S III packs a 1.4GHz quad-core chip, as the company indicated last week. Samsung obviously believes that kind of horsepower is necessary to drive a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display with 1,280 x 720 resolution, which makes it a perfect choice for you to freely watch HD movies on Galaxy S III on the go.

Samsung Galaxy S III (European variant) with Exynos 4 Quad highlights:

1. Full-speed video: Uses HD 30 frame per second video hardware codec engine for 1080p video recording and play-back. Also includes an embedded image signal processor interface for a high-quality camera and an HDMI 1.4 interface.

2. Speed jump: Owing to its 32-nanometer tech, the Exynos 4 Quad has "two times the processing capability over the 45-[nanometer] process based Exynos dual-core while consuming 20-percent less power," Samsung said.

3. Ready to plug into new phones: Exynos 4 Quad is "pin-to-pin compatible" with the Exynos 4 Dual, allowing smartphone and tablet suppliers to adopt the new solution without additional engineering or design efforts.

4. Based on ARM Cortex A9 design: Based on the current Cortex A9 tech from ARM. The latest and greatest ARM tech is called Cortex A15 but those chips won't emerge as commercial products for a while yet.

The May Samsung Galaxy S lll retains Home key and adopts 5-row screen icons design with HD resolution

Upon the latest report from Korean Digital Daily, according to the internal source of Samsung, it has been said the Samsung has decided to retain the Home key on its upcoming Samsung Galaxy S lll, and the user interface would adopt 5-row design to display its screen icons. Much exciting thing about Samsung Galaxy S lll is that it has been rumored that the new smartphone would come in HD screen resolution which is said to even compete with iPhone. As for the much anticipated release date of this smartphone, it is reported to be the beginning of May.

The report said that in the increasingly furious competition of smartphone market, many manufacturers nowadays adopts no-key design on the front of smartphones, just like the first Android 4.0 ICS Galaxy Nexus. But there are still some manufactures who configure their smartphones with a bigger HOME key at the bottom of the front face of phone, just like the cross-boundary product Galaxy Note. These two designs seem to have balanced the market. But the defaulted three virtual keys provided by Android 4.0 ICS somewhat makes phones possible to have larger screen display or weight less. So, whether Galaxy S lll’s Home key would make its way in the market is still unknown.

Besides, due to the Android 4.0 ICS, Galaxy Nexus and other flagship smartphones provides only 4-row of screen icons, which reduces miss-operation and make icons bigger and straightforward enough for operating. But the Galaxy S lll adopts 5-row screen icon display design thanks its higher screen resolution and larger screen size. Rumors from Korean news site Digital Daily (English translation) claim that the Galaxy S III will come with a 4.65-inch Super AMOLED Plus display with a resolution soaring to 1280 x 720. With large screen display and 1080P video playback, it would be a good choice for you to watch HDmovies on Galaxy S lll.

And for other specs of this smartphone, there has been little. But the company has obviously hinted that the Galaxy S lll may not support 3D technology, thus if you want to watch 3D movies with Galaxy S lll, you may get disappointed.
