Coming
soon of first three months of the next year should see the official
announcements of plenty of new smartphones, but few of them are more hotly
anticipated than the Samsung Galaxy S III. And what you see here might be the
first image captured with the upcoming Android flagship.
Admittedly,
the evidence that points to this conclusion isn't rock-solid. It's all based on
the EXIF of the photo, which says that it's captured with the Samsung I9500 and
that's a model number higher than that of both the Galaxy S
II (I9100) and
the Galaxy
Nexus (I9250).And
since the only smartphone worthy of such position is the expected Galaxy S II
successor, logic suggests that we are looking at a Galaxy S 3 photo sample.
The first thing to note here is that the image has 5MP high
resolution and we can't see Samsung releasing the Galaxy S 3 with a 5MP camera,
given that the Galaxy S II already has an 8MP snapper. Also, the EXIF data is
relatively easy to fake, but we guess if someone was to try and fool us he
would write in more believable information across all the fields (notice the
50s exposure time?).
Plus
the EXIF shows coordinates that belong to one of the Samsung centers in Korea.
