Galaxy S3 launched in SA

Friday, June 8th, 2012

Samsung Electronics’ highly anticipated flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3, was launched in SA last night.  The phone has been available from mobile operator Vodacom since the end of last month, but MTN and CellC will now be adding the phone to their contract options after last night’s launch. In South Africa alone 50 000 orders were received before it’s release.

The Samsung Galaxy S III is an Android smartphone that was announced by Samsung on 3 May 2012 and the successor to the Samsung Galaxy S II. The device was released in 28 countries, including in Europe, on 29 May 2012, and in India and Malaysia on 31 May 2012.

If you’re interested in the technical stuff, you’ll find all the technical specs on Wikipedia or Samsung’s website. For objective reviews on the Galaxy SIII, read more on CNET.
