that means price of SGS2 will drop a lot

dude I'm not talking about price here I'm talking about huge amounts of stupidity of doing something like this, there are a lot of people who waited for the SGS II for a long time and when it finally hit the US market they bought it and what do you think how will hey feel when they find out that samy will launch SGS III just a few months after they spent all their money on SGS II, they will be furious, I know I would be furious...samy makes great phones but if they do this in near future that will be one of the worst decisions because USA is the biggest(richest) market and they do not want to lose that, not even by 1%

No, because those who got SGS2 off-contract will likely get SGS3 on-contract. Those who got SGS2 on-contract are typically early Android adopters. They don't know any better and that's their fault, not the manufacturers.
But then again if the general public can "forgive" Apple for re-releasing the same phone after 16 months, I'm pretty sure they can forgive themselves for being so naive.

good thing the general public isn't like that. the sgs2 launched almost a year ago. blame the carriers for waiting so long to launch in America. you think Samsung WANTED to lose months of sales for no reason? there are tens of millions of sgs1 owners out there that are patiently waiting for the sgs3 to launch... so I say hurry it the heck up. to sgs2 owners that cry foul... what did u think the world was going to pause until you were ready to upgrade again??? lol you have the best dual core phone on the planet... shush.

Updates
Alteration (software and hardware)
Release schedule

so you would prefer that they release it in europe and asia first, and make you wait again?

I'm with ya bro.

Wanted to buy the note purely for the S-pen fun, but then I figured:
"wait, Sammy's launching the SGSIII in less than 5 months. I've been waiting for that beasty for the past 12 months. Am I actually going to buy a phone that'll become mid range in less than half a year?"

So now I'm hoping the SGSIII will come with an S-pen, and if not, i'll hope that some case makers make a case with a slot to slip an S-pen, and buy the pen individually.

That's an interesting little anicdote considering the fact that every drop test video showed the Galaxy S II hold up extremely well to drops. Especially when compared to a "premium" build phone that I won't name, but it's made out of almost entirely glass.

lol ""premium" build phone that I won't name, but it's made out of almost entirely glass." :DDDDD you should have said: "premium" build phone that I won't name, but it's made by apple. :D than people would not have a clue :))))

Thats a solid L-I-E. I guess you owned the chinese mock up. Mine one fell atleast ten times, thrice on concrete, and once on tarmac. still as good as new. just a few paint scratches on the silver bezel. GS2=most rugged smartphone ever.

that's hilarious considering how mine met the asphalt, concrete, wooden floor several times and stilll works outside of minor cosmetic damage

we sell more samsung phones than HTC phones by far.. probably 10 to 1. we get more HTC phones with cracked screens back in for warranty by far ...probably 5 to 1. do the math.

i really hope that it's the a15 cores not the a9

40. remixfa posted on 26 Feb 2012, 18:08 0 0

I am too, but even if its the 4xxx A9 exynos, its still die shrunk for a huge boost in power and battery life. Maybe not as great as the 5xxx A15 chips, but still significant even from the SGS2, much less my SGS1.

I highly doubt the HTC One X will.
