[UPDATE] Phones 4u window display shows Samsung logo and words 'coming 30.03.12'

UPDATE: Alas, it was just for a shop refurbishment, which is (apparently) being part-sponsored by Samsung, for some reason. Original article follows:

According to website Eurodroid, the photo below this article was taken by one of its readers outside a Phones 4u store on Oxford Street, London.

As you can see for yourself, the advertisement clearly displays a Samsung logo along with the words "Coming 30.03.12". Mysterious.

London's Oxford Street branch of Phones 4u was the exclusive retailer for the Galaxy Nexus when it launched in the UK, so the date shown could hint at the arrival of a new smartphone.

Samsung has previously stated that the Galaxy S3 will be announced during the "first half" of this year. The date on the advertisement could be in relation to this, but it seems a little unlikely the company would suddenly reveal it so suddenly.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.
