Rumour: Galaxy S III Watching Its Weight, Reportedly 7mm Thin 5

 Add another to the stack of rumours surrounding the upcoming Galaxy S III. This time, South Korea's Electronic Times News reports that an unnamed source claims the quad-core, super AMOLED plus, Android 4.0 powerhouse will be enclosed in a Liquipel waterproofed chassis only 7mm thick, 1.49mm thinner than the Galaxy S II. Electronic Times News also reports that we could see the S III launched as soon as May, which would line up with Samsung's statement earlier this month.

With technology becoming smaller and cooler, I would not be in the least bit surprised if this rumour turned out to be true. With such a thin profile and all the rumoured specifications swirling around, it seems the Galaxy S III is going to turn Galaxy Nexus owners on their head with an impressive device to tempt them into premature replacement.

  1. I think the s2 is already too thin to hold comfortably, which is the main reason I have a case for mine. I would much prefer it to be 10mm+ and use the extra space on a battery that can cope with not being charged every night

    1. Agreeing too. The thickness (or should I rather say thinness?:) has become a major selling point for many manufacturers, while most of the power users expect better battery life instead.

      Who wants to have a 2mm phone which lasts 1-2 hours, while he could have
      an 9-10mm one (which is kinda perfect size IMO) which lasts days?
