Galaxy S3 Developer Edition Goes Live on Samsung’s Site, 32GB and in Pebble Blue

galaxy s3 developer 650x392 Galaxy S3 Developer Edition Goes Live on   Samsung's Site, 32GB and in Pebble Blue

A landing page for the Samsung Galaxy S3 "Developer Edition" that will run on Verizon's network has gone live this evening with a "Coming Soon!" tag attached. We aren't seeing a price, but have already been told that it will retail for $599. If this page is accurate and the "Developer Edition" will sport 32GB of storage, then those who buy will actually end up with a deal. The 32GB versions sold through Verizon run $649.

As a reminder, if you are interested in this device, you have to purchase it directly through Samsung's store. The version that Big Red sells is subsidized and comes with a signed bootloader. There are rumors of a possible software patch to unlock the bootloader on the Verizon version, but we aren't ready to fully buy into that unless we hear it directly from a VZW executive.

For those that can't live without a fully open Android device, but need to stick with Verizon, this is your option.
