The Samsung Galaxy S III is coming to U.S. consumers on five major service providers. The phone will be launching with AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless and U.S. Cellular starting in June. Exact pricing and retail availability will be announced by each of the five carriers in the coming weeks.

The Galaxy S III weighs 4.7 ounces and is 8.6 millimeters thin. The 4.8 inch display extends to an ultra-thin bezel to maximize the viewing area. The Galaxy S III introduces the next version of Samsung’s content sharing service with AllShare Play. This service automatically notifies the Galaxy S III to Samsung HDTVs, mobile tablets, laptops and other consumer electronic devices on the same network that are ready to receive video files. Users can also remotely access files from devices on other networks.
