Pebble Blue Galaxy S III, Samsung Galaxy S3, GalaxyS3

It’s being reported by multiple sources today that Samsung is experiencing trouble with the production of their pebble blue variant of the Galaxy S III.

According to the reports, Samsung had to destroy close to 600,000 back covers of the blue edition and it will push back some international shipments.

We should highlight that this report doesn’t seem to cover all current sales of the Galaxy S III as some UK-based blogs say no shortage is being reported in their local areas. Furthermore, there is no current indication that this will affect USA shipments expected in the last half of June. Samsung has yet to comment on the situation, so there’s no confirming which regions are being affected exactly, nor how much water these reports hold.

For those of you who are still eying that pebble blue Android ICS-packed Galaxy S III for use with your Tru service, there’s currently no indication that you’ll have any trouble obtaining your device.
