"With an exclusive red color this summer and the power of the nation's largest 4G network, AT&T delivers the best wireless experience for Galaxy S3 fans," continued Bradley.

The Pebble Blue and Marble White versions will be launching on the carrier as well.

The smartphone will retail at $199.99 for the 16GB version with a 2-year service agreement, and AT&T stores will also offer a 16GB MicroSD card with the device for $39.

The Galaxy S3 will run on the company's 4G LTE network.

Samsung announced its plans to launch the smartphone on the five largest network service providers in the U.S. yesterday including AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, U.S. Cellular and Verizon.

The U.S. version of the device will launch for both 4G LTE and HSPA+ 42 networks. Prices will vary from carrier to carrier with the minimum being $199.

Samsung also will replace its Exynos quad-core processor with Qualcomm's dual-core s4 chip in the U.S. variant of the smartphone.

The Qualcomm chips have the LTE and 42MB HSPA+ speeds that U.S. smartphone owners expect and also keep up with the quad-core processors.

Other specifications for the U.S. model are the same as the international version, including a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display, 2GB of RAM, a 2100mA battery and Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich.
