What matters more to me is when it will be on sale.

the only thing apple is good at is marketing... and they manage to be the most succesful brand in the world.
why can Samsung make such superior phones, but they can't learn from Apples marketing strategy?
people are dumb... for those that respect it, keep making superior hardware and more functional software, but include those dumb people in your target group of buyers - make a signature fancy design and promote it with a bang, not 6 months before release, dumb buyers cool down by then :)

I doubt that tthe specs will ever get so dissapointing that people will get depressed at launch. its not going to be the iPhone 5 to 4s fiasco. Samsung has nothing but impress us from the sgs1 to the sgs2, galaxy nexus, to the note, and beyond. it doesn't matter if its a dual or quad core we are still talking about a solid rumor of at least a 50% power bump from the already massive sgs2. even if they just add the 720p screen to thr 5xxx chips it will still be the next hotness.

I love my GSII, and now I am wondering what direction do I desire more: super-thin and powerful or thin with a bigger battery; therefore longer lasting powerful. I love that Moto produced a phone that will allow for a full day of actual use. If the GSIII is inherently going to last longer than my day and half run time, then I will be one extremely satisfied customer. Overall, I think that I want regular thin with a bigger battery since my phone is my camera and video source when outdoors.

I expect a quad core. I doubt Sammy will leave its flagship behind the competition. I also expect an HD screen and much better camera. But these better not be the only upgrades. Give me something I haven't seen before orthat isn't common in a phone. If its just power battery or camera upgrades, or even just a slight design change ill stick with the sgsII. Just don't do what apple did Samsung.

Samsung has yet to let us down with their flagships and has done an excellent job delivering other powerful devices. While I agree that their marketing strategy is in need of an upgrade, I feel that we can trust them to deliver on this phone. The quad-core would be the intelligent way to go considering dual-cores are common place and fading fast. The HD screen is a must. As for announcing it at MWC....I don't believe that will matter. Yes some will be disappointed but they have no reason to be. I definitely think that the announcement should be delayed until they have already made agreements with the stateside carriers on launch dates. That 7 month delay for the GSII was definitely bad for business, though I don't believe so much of that delay was on Samsung's side of the deal.

Considering Sprint has been the first to deliver on both the GS and GSII, I certainly look forward to being one of the first to have the GSIII!!!!

Samsung should announce it on MWC. they could always bump the specs during launch even it takes months away we still have the Note and the Nexus to fill our high end needs.

I would like a better battery life overall.

"If the phone does not get introduced next month in Barcelona, the rumored specs of the phone will just continue to get more and more impressive until it comes to the point that no matter what Samsung raises the curtain on, it will be a disappointment."

It wouldn't be a disappointment if you writers don't keep posting the ridiculous rumors. I mean a 6 year old could start a rumor, but yet you guys would post it like it was from Samsung themselves. I mean even if it were to be released tomorrow, it would be a disappointment to someone because of sites like PA posting rumored specs that people get excited about and then it doesn't turn out to be true. It's going to be a great device either way. I don't think Samsung would release something that wasn't better or on par with the competition. I mean as much as people were disappointed with the iPhone 4S, those still sold like hotcakes. PA needs to stop making these assumptions. They are helping the cause against the GSIII by posting baseless rumors. The only true part about this article was that a Samsung executive did say: "We are still reviewing several options when to launch. We will let you know when it's decided."

i think that if they cannot complete a global roll out of the device in a timely manner, then they should hold off. People here waited forever just for the device to come, how does that make sense?
