We already told you about it for a couple of days: the Christmas gift that has been made to fans of rumors and leaks has been the first possible image of the Samsung Galaxy S3. Coming from Russia, the image is subject to questions, as its authenticity has not been confirmed by Samsung and some details of the photograph could suggest that we are dealing with a recreation more false than a wooden euro.
In any case, from the same source a new image has been published that follows the line of what was seen on the day before Christmas Eve. Details of its technical chart have also been revealed that more precisely refine the characteristics that the device will have, and that significantly contradict what was known at first.
For starters, the quad-core processor that the Samsung Galaxy S3 would install would not be two GHz, but 1.8 GHz. It would continue to be the second generation of the Samsung Exynos that we already met in the Samsung Galaxy S3, although with an architecture that duplicates its architecture compared to what was seen in the successful mobile that went on sale in May of this year.
In addition, the screen would not have a size of 4.65 inches, like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, as had been said at the beginning, but would bet on no less than five inches, closer to what was seen in the Samsung Galaxy Note -and its 5.3 inches -. The resolution, yes, would be resolved with the values that correspond to the third flagship of Google, developing a 1,280 x 720 pixel canvas that serves to baptize the panel as Super AMOLED HD.
There is no doubt that the Samsung Galaxy S3 will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. So much so that the same platform could have allowed the South Korean manufacturer to dispense with physical or capacitive buttons to integrate all on-screen controls, thus gaining in touch panel space.
The camera is another of the unknowns of the Samsung Galaxy S3. A couple of days ago, you were saying that the latest data indicated that the sensor would have a maximum power of ten megapixels. However, today, via Unwired View, we know that this part of the technical picture could be provided with a resolution of up to twelve megapixels, in addition to having a video function capable of shooting sequences with quality FullHD and scan 60 images per second.
It will be necessary to be aware in the coming days of the novelties that serve to underline the authenticity of the images, although a priori, judging by the way in which they are presented and some points of their finish, it could well be said that it is a mockup instead of the renderings of the product that would finally be presented at the Mobile World Congress 2012 in Barcelona.
