The Samsung Galaxy S III is arguably one of the most anticipated Android smartphones in 2012, with the Galaxy S II already winner of a number of “best smartphone of 2011” awards, the Galaxy S III has a lot to live up to. Samsung decided to skip a Mobile World Congress announcement for the Galaxy S III, and now a ZDNet Korea report indicates we could see a Samsung announcement later this month. If earlier rumors hold up, we will also see a simultaneous Galaxy S III launch on 50 major networks, possibly including those in the United States and hopefully including T-Mobile.

As it stands now, there is absolutely no sign outside of previous Galaxy S support for which carrier(s) will carry the Galaxy S III. Currently rumored specs include:

• 4.8? Super AMOLED HD Plus display…up to 1080p perhaps?
• Quad-Core Exynos 4412 processor with ARM Mali-400 GPU
• 8 megapixel rear camera, 2 megapixel front-facing camera
• Ceramic casing
• 4G LTE support
• Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich

Our fingers are crossed for the Galaxy S III to arrive on the Magenta network in the future, this could be the Android smartphone for 2012.
