There have been rumors that the Samsung Galaxy S III would skip over Android 4.2 and go directly to 4.3. There have also been other rumors concerning the operating system to run on the Galaxy S III in the future. Recently, information has been leaked to the World Wide Web which showed that Samsung is working on an Android 4.3 update for the Galaxy S III smartphone. Coming out of Samsung’s R&D Department in India is a report by Temefy.com that also includes a leaked screenshot of a Galaxy S III smartphone purportedly running Android 4.3.
The Samsung Galaxy S III 16GB Blue is available for a reduced sale price now starting at .
The screenshot shows a Galaxy S III (model GT-I9300) phone running on Android Jelly Bean version 4.3, and the report goes on to discuss that Samsung R&D, India, is also working on an Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS for the Galaxy S III as well. In this area there has been major speculation as why Samsung would be working on a 4.3 Jelly Bean operating system boost, as well as Jelly Bean 4.2.2. Deutsche Telekom has confirmed that the international version of the GS3 will indeed be skipping Android 4.2.2 and heading straight to 4.3.
This could possibly be what Samsung’s Indian R&D department is working on, but we must point out that this is totally speculation at this time. The handset continues to be a bestseller regardless what operating system it employs, and is currently retailing for one penny on contract in the United States in the 16 GB variant. Following in the footsteps of the popular Galaxy S II, the Galaxy S III was named the Best Smartphone of 2012 by multiple industry analysts and experts.
The phone is currently available in multiple color choices such as blue, white, black or brown, and measures a scant 0.34 inches (8.6 mm) in thickness. The Galaxy S III is also light, weighing just 4.70 ounces (133 g). That slim and light form factor is home to a 4.80 inch True HD display with a resolution of 720 by 1,280 pixels. Pixel density is high at 306 pixels per inch, and more than 16 million colors can be found on that display.
The Galaxy S III can deliver up to 15.0 hours of talk time after a full battery charge, and runs on a 1.5 GHz dual core central processor. A Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 system chip anchors the hardware package, which also includes 2.0 GB of RAM memory and a storage expanding microSD slot. Built-in support for Facebook, YouTube, Picasa and Twitter is present out-of-the-box, and the rear facing 8.0 megapixel camcorder provides simultaneous HD video and image recording, capturing video in 1,080P HD resolution.
