Samsung Galaxy S III Coming to South Africa in Q3 2012




Although everyone expected Samsung to launch its third-generation Galaxy S Android-powered smartphone at the end of this month, the Korean company took a surprising decision and stated that the Galaxy S III will have its own launch event in the first half of the year.

Rumor has it that Samsung is not content with the big gap between European and North American launch of the smartphone, so it decided to announce it a bit later this year. 

This means that the Galaxy S III will probably see a global roll-out soon after the official announcement.

In this regard, Samsung announced it will held a press event on March 15 in Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg,), where the company plans to reveal its 2012 lineup of handsets. 

There's a chance that Samsung Galaxy S III will be officially introduced during this event, but we will probably know more soon after Mobile World Congress 2012 trade fair closes.

Even though the phone has yet to be announced it appears that carriers around the world are already confirming they will offer the Galaxy S III at some point during this year.

MyBroadband reports that South-African major carrier MTN has just confirmed it will offer the Samsung Galaxy S III as an alternative to Samsung Galaxy Nexus, which the carrier refused to add to its portfolio.

According to MTN, the Galaxy S III has already been ranged, but the phone needs to follow as certain procedure, such as testing, pricing and advertising. Only after this process will be complete the Galaxy S III will hit shelves at MTN.

Other South-African carrier hope to be able to offer the Galaxy S III as well. Virgin Mobile estimates it will be able to carry the smartphone from Q3 2012, while Cell C are more optimistic and predict they will start offering the Galaxy S III from July.
