Some T-mobile shops in the UK now have stock of the samsung galaxy s3 I9305 which is is the LTE/4G version of this phone. Specs remain largely unchanged apart from the addition of 4G and 2GB of ram, yes 2gb like the U.S version and what's more it retains its quad core spec. * +

I havnt checked sim free prices yet but the t-mobile shop told me the new s3 is fifty pounds with a 36 pound a month contract compared to the standard s3 which is free on the same full monty tariff. They dont advise 4g tariffs for the new model yet untill the service is available which is meant to be the end of this month. * +

what mobile magazine claims the other networks won't get 4g untill early next year. 4g will only be available in some major cities to begin with. It also claims it will be up to 10 times faster than current 3g based techologies. Claims! * +

contrary to popular belief the s3 I9300 is not an LTE handset. many people think that the jellybean update will bring 4g to the original s3 which is false! The new s3 comes with jellybean out of the box hence the confusion. Its a hardware issue, not a firmware issue! And that comes from SAMSUNG UK TECHNICAL DEPT * +

(annoyingly some carphone warehouse stores have told customers the original s3 is an LTE phone which is incorrect so there are going to be a lot of dissapointed people who bought the phone with 4g in mind) all this has been confirmed from SAMSUNG UK TECHNICAL DEPT. So if you dispute it, dispute with them! * +

(the galaxy note 2 is not officially an LTE phone in the uk because it doesn't have the correct 4g radio band to be able to work on uk LTE according to mobile choice magazine) * +
