Samsung’s Galaxy S III

Android flagship device was unveiled to the world with a quad-core application processor inside, complemented by 1GB of RAM.

Since this CPU did not offer support for LTE networks, Samsung announced a new version of the device to address that, with a Snapdragon dual-core processor and 2GB of RAM to complement the lack of two cores.

Basically, users in the non-LTE markets would get a quad-core phone, while those in LTE markets would have to settle with a dual-core one, while enjoying more RAM.

However, it seems that the higher amount of RAM might soon arrive to the quad-core flavor of Galaxy S III as well, at least this is what a leaked document that emerged on phoneArena shows.

The device is said to be en-route to SK Telecom, and would also support LTE, making it the ultimate Android smartphone. However, we’ll take the report with a grain of salt for now.
