As far as i am aware you can't?

Any reason you need the 32GB version. Surely the 16GB version with a 64GB Micro SD Card (or 128GB in the future) will be enough?

You can get one from Amazon.

I saw that but is it legit, only one review, and a lot of people are trying to pass of the 16gb with a 16gb SD card as '32gb'

Well it's clearly advertised as a 32GB model so I'd imagine you'd have plenty of recourse if it wasn't legit. Does the price look right for that model?

It looks very cheap tbh. Not to say its not legit though.

The Amazon link looks legit, and but personally I would go for the 16gb version with a fast 64gb SD card (can pick one up for £40) which will give you the equivalent of a 80gb device (unless you need the extra 16g) ?

I have this and just use the phones 16gb for the OS and apps then have the 64gb card for videos, and photos and music.

I'd wait a few weeks personally as there is a new version of the S3 coming soon.

4G LTE version with 2Gb RAM instead of the 1Gb that we have just now.

I can't see much news on this boosted 2gig ram s3

I see Samsung might release a couple of phones to try and dampen the iPhone 5 release, but it's all rumours and only half a gig difference ram.

Anyone with anything more concrete?

Not in the UK though, it'd cost a fortune with tax to import it.

Also the LTE will never work in the UK as we'll be using different frequencies to the US and it's dual core instead of quad.

Well the info only surfaced the other day but i can assure you, its not wrong. There is even youtube videos. It was always going to come out. They already have this version in Korea i think.

The US version is LTE but it only a dual core with 2g RAM. With LTE coming here, it makes sense to release an LTE version here.

I was talking about the Korean version.

Plus i don't think there will be an LTE version launching in the UK. Do you have any proof of this.

So they will release an LTE version everywhere else other than the UK? I don't think so!!

Like i said to you on the other thread, they are releasing an LTE international version. We all have an International S3 as it is which is the same across the whole of the EU.

The same will apply to the LTE version.
