C Spire Samsung Galaxy S3

The C Spire Samsung Galaxy S3 has been announced long after other network carriers in the US proclaimed the smartphone’s upcoming availability. The service provider claims to offer data speed approximately 10 times quicker than 3G connectivity courtesy of its 4G LTE network.

The sleek Galaxy S3 binges on the Ice Cream Sandwich platform with TouchWiz enhancements and it draws steam from an embedded Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 1.5GHz dual core CPU. The much talked about 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED touchscreen that dominates the façade is protected by Gorilla Glass 2.0. The handset is integrated with 2GB RAM accompanied by 16GB onboard memory and it also offers expandable memory up to 64GB.

“We’re excited that the Galaxy S III will be among the first 4G LTE devices launched on the nation’s only personalized network optimized for the next generation of high-speed data services,” commented Kevin Hankins, chief operating officer for C Spire Wireless.

While the front camera renders 1.9MP for video conferencing, the back panel carries an 8MP snapper to capture and record content. Additionally, the device offers 3G, Wi-Fi, GPRS, DLNA, USB, HDMI and Bluetooth connectivity. Features like S Voice, S Beam, Smart Stay, AllShare Play and Pop Up Play are also thrown into the mix. The device is powered by a 2100mAh battery that delivers 3G talk time of up to 700 minutes and 770 hours on 3G standby.

The C Spire Samsung Galaxy S3 price and release date will be disclosed in the upcoming weeks. The device can be picked up in either marble white or pebble blue color options.
