We're a little over 5 hours away and the speculation is still rampant on what the Next Galaxy is going to be. Other than it being called a Galaxy S III, and even that's not guaranteed, we're expecting a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED Plus 720p HD display, an Exynos 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, and 12MP camera. Expansys, has a listing for the Galaxy S III in their latest email newsletter that show the major specs, and they're a little lower than expectations. The quad-core is in place, but the display is shown as 4.6-inches and the camera is at 8MP.

Could it just be a placeholder? Seems strange that it would even be placed in the newsletter to begin with, placeholder or not. Even it was a placeholder, I would think Expansys wouldn't put out information like that because they are a major tech retailer and not some fly by night operation. I guess we will know for sure in a few hours.

His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.

Nope, Expansys themselves state that all specs they have published are rumor:

“Our resident phone expert Masa has put together the best of the rumours:”

Then they post all the above from your article as well as all the other spec/design rumors we’ve been hearing. Calm down just wait a few hours and you’ll have something more tangible to write about or at least a more interesting article to link from
