MetroPCS reveals Samsung Galaxy S III as part of fall lineup

[![MetroPCS reveals Samsung Galaxy S III as part of fall lineup][1] ][2]

Turns out the [LG Motion 4G][3] wasn't all that [MetroPCS][4] had up its sleeve for reveal today, as the prepaid carrier separately let its new fall lineup slip, and [wouldn't you know it][5], among those devices is the [Samsung Galaxy S III][6]. Joining the superphone will be a smaller Sammy smartphone, and like the [LG Connect 4G][7], it'll support VoLTE -- curious that the carrier isn't touting the feature for the Galaxy S III, [don't you think][8]? ZTE will also be making another go at MetroPCS, as an Android handset with a 4.3-inch screen is now in the cards, but other relevant specs remain sorely absent. Rounding out the lineup will be an import from Coolpad, which is said to wield a 4-inch screen and will retail for $149. According to _Phone Scoop_, we may see this one make an official debut later this week. Naturally, none of these slabs carry the same clout as the Galaxy S III, and if you'd like to get a bit more familiar with the soon-to-be premiere smartphone at MetroPCS, be sure to check out _PC Magazine_ below, which managed to score a hands-on with the latest version of Samsung's finest.
