The phone had been originally expected to be unveiled at the Mobile World Congress 2012.
Last week, Samsung admitted it had to delay the launch of its Galaxy S III Android smartphone, but that the launch would be this quarter.
The latest rumor is the device will now get some face time at a special event on March 22nd in France.
If spec leaks are accurate, the device will have a large 4.6-inch 720p multi-touch display, run on Android 4.0 and a 1.8Ghz dual-core Exynos processor, have a 12MP rear camera and 2GB RAM. Each one of the features is practically unheard of in smartphones, currently, especially not together.
Furthermore, Samsung will somehow manage to squeeze all that power into a case that is just 7mm (0.28 inches) thick. Its predecessor is 0.33 inches thick, and the king of smartphones, the iPhone 4S is 0.37 inches.
For now, this all remains speculation, but the rumored specs are surely something to drool over, for now.
