SAMSUNG GALAXY S III

So if you didn't know i am sort of a tech-nut lol, I'm always into the newest of everything especially technology. So yesterday i was excited to see that samsung was unveiling their flagship device, the Samsung Galaxy S III. They streamed a live feed from London,England where they were revealing the new device. So as I'm watching, at face value the phone looks amazing and the features thats Samsung has incorporated into it are along the lines of the things Apple are doing with all of their devices.

Here are the important specs.
  1. 1.4Ghz Quad-core processor
  2. 4.8 inch SUPER-AMO-LED HD display
  3. 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video recording
  4. 1GB of RAM
  5. S-Voice
  6. Eye-Tracking


So let me start off by saying the phone is nice and is far ahead of the phone game compared to its counterparts. I like the S-Voice feature on it. This is basically the iPhones' Siri's twin sister, who is a little bit smarter and better at everything than Siri. The phone S-Voice even works with waking the phone up when the screen cuts off. All you have to say is one of the selected phrases such as "Hello Samsung" and the phone automatically turns the screen on. As well as launching apps and checking weather without actually going into the phone and clicking on the app.


Next you have the Smart-Stay aka the eye-tracker, which basically tracks your eye movements to keep the phone screen on while your looking at a webpage or reading a book on your phone instead of it cutting off from not touching the screen. 

Those are the features that stand out to me compared to the rest of the market. Now i hate that the screen is 4.8 inches. To me this is clearly way to big. I don't see myself putting this tablet sized phone in my pocket all day. This is a phone that you keep out at all times because its too big to put in and take out of your pocket and too big for a belt-clip phone case. Thats just my opinion. Also i don't like how cheap the material of the phone is and how it looks. Me personally i like a lil weight to my phone. i like the sleek and sexy design of the blackberry bold 9900. Adding in some metal or something a lil more sturdier would make the phone a lil more attractive but thats just my opinion.





All in all its a nice phone for those upgrading from a lower-end phone who want something to catch every bodies attention but its basically the Galaxy S II just a tad bit updated.
