We recently reported that a Phones4u store on Oxford Street, London, had put up a large poster which showed the Samsung logo along with the caption ‘Coming 30/3/2012’, and this lead to the speculation that the much anticipated next Android smartphone from the Samsung camp, the Samsung Galaxy S3 would see launch in the UK on that particular date.
However, that isn’t the case as according to the guys over at Pocket-lint, that Phones4u poster touting that Samsung 30th of March date actually has nothing to do with the release of the Samsung Galaxy S3 much to the dismay of the Android faithful.
What that Samsung 30/3/2012 date is actually for, as confirmed to the Pocket-lint guys, means a Samsung store within a store is launching, in this particular case a Samsung store within the Phones4u store on Oxford Street, and that store is currently undergoing refurbishment.
So basically Samsung will be opening a Samsung store inside Phones4u on the 30th of the month, and will not be releasing the Samsung Galaxy S3 on that date, which means there will still be somewhat of a wait before the Android faithful can actually get their hands on the Galaxy S3, and this should then quell all the rumours of an end of month release.
Disappointing I know, but there you have it, no Samsung Galaxy S3 UK launch on the cards just yet, but hopefully we will see the Android Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone arrive early in April, are you eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Galaxy S3?
