It's official. The moment that many around the country have been waiting for is just around the corner. Samsung has sent out official invitations confirming the India launch date of its next flagship phone, the Samsung Galaxy S III.
An invitation that is unlikely to win awards for design or image quality confirms the May 31 date while urging the recipients to "Join us to discover just how intelligent the GALAXYSIII really is." That's right, Samsung doesn't even get the branding of its own device right. We certainly hope the device is "Effortlessly smart, intuitively simple." or everything that the invitation wasn't.
