Coming Soon | Samsung Galaxy S3 [Specs Leaked]

After the success of Samsung Galaxy S2, it seems as if the next generation Samsung Smartphone - Samsung Galaxy S3 - is on its way to be launched with the all-new Quad-Core Exynos Processor, if the rumors are to be believed.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 would be powered by a Quad-Core Exynos 4412 Processor which would clock at 1.5GHz. It is a 32nm quad-core processor which is designed using ARM Cortex A9 cores.

The phone is expected to feature a 4.6inch super AMOLED plus display, 2 GB of RAM and a 12-megapixel Camera with a BSI sensor. It would run on the latest version of Android 4.0 - Ice Cream Sandwich with refreshed TouchWiz skin.

The phone would support 4G LTE and have NFC feature with a curved glass design.

The new Exynos processor would not only improve the performance by 20% but it would also reduce the power consumption of the device by 30%. The graphics of this processor is also rumored to be 5 times better as compared to its previous version processor as it would feature the ARM Mali-T604 GPU.

On the designing front, Galaxy S3 is expected to be slimmer that Galaxy S2 and it doesn't even feature a solitary button centered at the bottom of the phone which would help it to fit in a larger screen.

The leaked snap of the phone, that was published on Phandroid shows Galaxy S3 with these whooping specs (but the snap doesn't seem to be original as it has some grammatical errors on it).

Samsung is expected to launch Galaxy S3 near to the launch of Apple iPhone 5 in end of Q1 of 2012 which might just prove to be the 'Apple iPhone Killer'.
