According to an official statement from Verizon Wireless (posted below), the release date for the Big Red variant of the Samsung Galaxy S III Android smartphone has been delayed from July 10th to July 12th. Two days certainly isn’t too devastating, but those anxiously waiting for the Galaxy S3 may be thinking otherwise, at least initially.
“As it sometimes happens, the availability date for a device changes. The Galaxy S III on Verizon Wireless will now be available in stores and online starting July 12. Pre-orders have started to ship and are still available for preorder.”
