Recent
reports have hinted that the delivery of the Samsung Galaxy S3 of Verizon may
be postponed by one day from July 9 to July 10.
The supposed
change in the delivery schedule of the latest smartphone from Samsung may not
have resulted from the patent lawsuit of Apple. The reports indicated that the
change in the release schedule of the Samsung Galaxy S3 of Verizon may be
linked to the relationship between Samsung and US-based mobile wireless
providers.
Although it
may still be possible for the Samsung Galaxy S3 to be delivered by Verizon at
an earlier date, a worst-case scenario is necessary to avoid any
disappointments among its customers. The Verizon version of the Samsung Galaxy
S3 will be delivered around two weeks after the release of the versions for
T-Mobile, AT&T and Sprint, which will deliver it on July 21.
Despite the
delay, the Long Term Evolution or LTE network of Verizon offers a farther reach
among all US-based mobile service providers, which would be an added incentive
for consumers who are willing to wait for the release of the Samsung
smartphone. However some observers have indicated that any delay in the release
of the high-end smartphones may affect its sales in the market particular with
the Samsung Galaxy S3.
The Samsung Galaxy
S3 meant for the US market will feature a Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor,
2GB RAM, eight-megapixel rear camera, and a 1.9MP camera in front. It will also
come with a Super AMOLED screen display measuring 4.8 inches.
In addition
to the four major US-based mobile service providers, US Cellular is also
anticipated to release its own version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 next month. C
Spire will also offer its own version within the year.
Some
industry watchers have highlighted the importance of network support for the
Samsung Galaxy S3 with the increasing competition in the smartphone market.
This is further highlighted by the upcoming release of prepaid iPhones which
are set to be offered by Virgin Mobile and Cricket before the end of the year.
