U.S. versions of Galaxy S III likely to feature dual-core CP

Ironically, the U.S. models will probably "only" boast Snapdragon S4 chips.

If you heard the news of a 1.4GHz quad-core CPU in the "Next Galaxy" and thought, "Perfect, that's my next T-Mobile handset!", you might want to sit down.  Chances are good that the LTE versions of the Galaxy S III will be dual-core chipsets.  Much like the way the AT&T version of the HTC One X has a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, the GS3 we get on our local carriers will have the same treatment.
"Samsung plans to release its Galaxy S III smartphone according to different specifications and different markets. For European consumers, it will use 3G and the company’s own quad-core mobile APs, while its own solution that combines LTE, 3G and quad-core mobile APs will be used for the Korean version. But only in the United States, will Samsung use Qualcomm chips,’’ said one Samsung executive asking not to be identified.
