The next highly anticipated smartphone from Samsung will be hitting T-Mobile at the end of the month. That’s right, on June 21st, T-Mobile customers will be able to pick up this Android 4.0 device powered by a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor on T-Mobile’s HSPA+42 network. The Galaxy S III will come in your choice of Pebble Blue or Marble White, and will feature phablet-like specs, including:

In a comment, Samsung talks about the delay, and the fact that they “invented” the pebble blue color (I smell a Crayola lawsuit coming):
