Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 possibly spied posing for official imagery
When Samsung's GT-S7272 made its way through the FCC a few days ago, it existed as little more than a set of numbers. If SamMobile is on the ball, however, we may now have a face to go with those digits. The site claims to have an official shot of the phone, which might launch under the Galaxy Ace 3 badge. While it's hard to verify specs attached to the rumor, they line up with both the image and a few previous details. The Ace 3 may ultimately be a subtle evolution of its predecessor with a 4-inch WVGA screen, a dual-core 1GHz chip, Android 4.2 and design ideas borrowed from its bigger cousins. Will this diminutive device launch at Samsung's June 20th event, in tandem with the Galaxy S 4 Zoom? We can't say for sure, but we'll certainly be keeping our eyes open.
Samsung Galaxy S 4 mini, GT-S7272 reach the FCC
Well, that was fast. Samsung only just unveiled the Galaxy S 4 mini last week, and today the device is swinging through the FCC as the GT-i9195. Sadly, this particular version of the mini isn't likely to reach the US -- its LTE only works in South Korea and a handful of other distant countries. We're almost more interested in a second device, the GT-S7272, which is reaching the FCC at the same time. While this too won't hit the US when it doesn't even support American 3G frequencies, its model name is commonly (if unofficially) associated with a dual-SIM version of the unannounced Galaxy Ace 3, which may have both Android 4.2 and a WVGA screen. We'll keep our eyes peeled for versions of either smartphone that are friendlier to North American shores.
