Did the Samsung Galaxy S III just appear in Vietnam?
Whoa, there. We’re still weeks away from an official big stage unveiling, but it looks like Samsung’s next Galaxy phone is already out there. Vietnamese site Tinhte, which has past form on these kind of things, has got it hands on the GT-I9300 — purportedly the Galaxy S III if Samsung decides to follow its own naming convention. According to the specifications leaked, the phone houses a 4.6-inch display at 720 x 1184 resolution (320 DPI, depending on whether you include those on-screen Android buttons), while a quad-core 1.4 GHz processor works on keeping the Ice Cream Sandwich OS running smoothly. Other hardware mentions include 1GB of RAM, 8-megapixel camera, 16GB of storage plus microSD capability.
According to Tinhte, the 2050 mAh battery will arrive with NFC capabilities baked in, like the Galaxy Nexus before it. There’s an iffy plastic rim surrounding to the whole device that has apparently been added not to ruin the surprise of how the device looks ahead of its official launch. While we’ve seem some similar hardware leaks already, this video makes a very strong case for it being the real deal. Take a look for yourself right after the break, alongside a picture of the back.
Update: It looks our source link has disappeared and the video has now gone private. Fortunately, Endgadget grabbed their own copy of the video and you can find it here.

The real design of the phone is still unknown. This is another dummy case. All testers etc. were given dummy cases to keep the the real phone/specs secret.
We’ll all just have to wait till May 3rd for the real reveal.

hey guys this is from gsmarena:
“It’s important to note that the device shown isn’t the final design – it’s just a sort of test mule, with all the hardware packed in a box to let the carriers test it. This was done to prevent any leaks of what the final device will look like.”
let’s hope the final design is better

I thought they have said several times the i9300 is the Galaxy M coming out.

8mpx? Same camera lenses? Wtf this cant be S3. At least upgrade the bloody sensor and make it zero shutter lag and 12mp at least. Seriously 1GB RAM just isn’t enough anymore with all the bloated junk apps running in the official ROM. 2GB RAM and super Amoled plus HD then I’m sold.

idk why but those casings seems quite same for me….so there are two options:
1. thats NOT SGSIII, just fake or SGS2+
2. we had SGSIII posted here for a long time now….
If those specs comes to be true…..than im kinda FU and im not buying it…..but im not giving up just yet….gonna wait till third of may to see what samsung got planned…but we must ask ourselves….were those specs really worth hiding that hard?

its the S2plus for me… I’m expenting a quad core A15 2ghz 2GB ram, 12MPX with zero shutter lag, and ceramic body. Samsung always bets for power and im expecting more power not a slightly upgraded S2

This is in no way the galaxy sIII nor by the design OR hardware, SII ram: 829MB Dummy: 680MB, The same MALI400 GPU, only 12 gig storage, the same processor as SII but scared up to 1400 mhz.. so this is NOT in ANY WAY the sgsIII maybe an sgsII +..
