Just three months after Samsung Galaxy S III went on sale, the smartphone manufacturer is already planning to launch the next-generation device - Galaxy S IV. A company official reportedly told Korea Times that "the new device is expected to hit shelves globally in March at the latest" following an initial announcement at the Mobile World Congress in February," reports Engadget.

According to the report, "The timetable was released just three days after rival Apple introduced the iPhone 5, which has received a mixed response from industry experts and consumers as it is seemingly lacking in innovative features."

There're rumours that following Apple's lead, Samsung is going to increase the size of the display on the smart phone from the current 4.8 inches to 5 inches.

Samsung recently stated that they expect the Galaxy S III to pass the 30 million mark by the end of this year after completing 20 million units sold in a mere 3 months.

Not a great idea on part of Samsung to launch the inferior Galaxy S DUOS with the same design like the S3.

I get a feeling this one will sell like hot cakes. Taking into account price reduction with time and similarity with s3 looks.

True. There should've been an exclusiveness for pricey handset like S-III.

The rear view also doesn't have much difference vis–à–vis S-III's look.

This is S-III

And S Duos's rear look is...

Only size of the phone is different. At a glance it is difficult to differentiate.

Very valid question, one must assume both unless stated otherwise, in which case comes question of different 3g packs for different numbers/operators etc. In short a big mess.

The answer for the noob :Sorprendido: can be had from gsmarena's discussion.

It has been depicted that "The Galaxy S Duos supports 3G with HSPA on both SIM cards, but you can’t have two data connections simultaneously."

So, no need to get frightened for an impending mess, @ Dipan.

My friend having design of their previous phone in new phone is NOT copying... In that case, can you say apple copied its own OG iPhone in iPhone3G and 3GS, similarly it copied its iPhone4 in 4S and 5 too???

you should understand the difference apple is continuing their legacy or patented design in a phone of similar price range..but sammy is copying their own design of 36k model in a very lower price band model!

iPhone5 is looking like a copy of iPhone4... iPhone4 is much cheaper than iPhone5 (Free with contract vs 299$ on contract) and so they are not in same price range... Similarly S-III (32k) and S Duos (19k)...

I can't understand this "If apple does, It is right... If Samsung does, its wrong"...

After the launch of ip5 its obvious that older model price is reduced..its not that apple launched them simultaneously,and I think one of the reason of iphones 'magical' success is that they only launch one model at a time not simillar looking models at the same time with much different price tag.I m not saying sammy doing it wrong but it takes away the 'premium' and exclusive & standout from the crowd' that people crave for when buying such expensive models.Lastly I m not an apple fanboy,but their marketing strategy amazes me very mouch.There is no other company who launch only one product and each time it breaks a record with a mass hysteria..!I hope you got the point. :)

I second Kanaga.

Apple sued Samsung only, but every smartphone manufacturer has copied apple for one or other feature to be precise. So why apple didn't fight for patent infringement with LG/hTc/Asus/Motorola/Huawei/Dell/Acer/Sony/Sharp/Toshiba/ZTE/Spice........? The answer is clear. Apple fears Samsung and that's why they consider Samsung as their greatest rival.

Making Patents for every design & tech and launching one model a year might provide an edge to Apple but in reality its no good for users as we all have different needs and different budget requirements. This is where brands like Samsung, HTC, LG & Nokia comes into picture. What they do is provide us variety products as per our requirements.

P.S. I'm not an Apple Hater :P

^ ^ ^ 64GB of internal storage? :wub: Who then needs an SD card!

I hope they have solved the weird crippled multitasking problem which the One X had.
