Samsung’s launch of its new Galaxy III smartphone has begun to look like an Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone event. Nine million of the model have been pre-ordered worldwide. The number is even more impressive since the smartphone will not be available in the US for months.
Samsung is considered the only viable competitor to Apple. And, the Galaxy III will be released before the iPhone 5 which will probably not be launched until fall. Samsung has started to have an important edge over Apple which the American company cannot easily overcome.
The Galaxy III runs on super-fast 4G networks. These networks have become the core of most wireless subscriber marketing campaigns. With the Galaxy III, Samsung will extend its advantage.
