Samsung's hotly-anticipated successor to the ultra-popular Galaxy series is coming to our shores, and as expected, preorders for the GSIII are now live on Verizon. For those needing a quick refresh of the specs:

  • 4.8" 720p SUMER AMOLED display
  • 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 CPU
  • 2GB RAM (!)
  • 16/32GB storage + microSD Slot
  • Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
  • 8MP rear shooter, 1.9MP front
  • Gorilla Glass 2
  • 2100mAh battery
  • 4G (LTE)

Samsung also includes a number of proprietary apps, the most anticipated of which is probably the Siri-esque S Voice app.

As shown in the picture above, Verizon is saying their SGSIIIs (both colors) are shipping no later than July 9. The 16GB model goes for $200, while the 32GB goes for $250. Full retail price is $600 and $650, respectively.
