The Galaxy S III, as Samsung touts it, is “inspired by nature â€" it sees, listens, responds, and allows you to share the greatest moments,†and that theme is ever present when you turn on the phone for the first time.
Pros:
  • A pretty cool feature is window-in-window, which allows you to watch a video and look at your home screen or browse the web at the same time
  • Sporting Android 4.0, aka Ice Cream Sandwich, the S III means business.
Cons:
  • The only real problem with this device is the price

Review: Samsung Galaxy S III

Samsung rightfully enjoys pointing out that it ships more Android smartphones than anyone else. And, with its new Galaxy S III , the South Korean electronics giant has accomplished something only Apple has been able to do so far: sell the same exact phone at the same price across major U.S.
Pros:
  • A blazing fast beast of a phone with 2GB of RAM and a 1.5GHz dual-core processor
  • The display is a beauty, just short of the iPhone and One X screens
  • Handset is thin and light
  • The same hardware is sold across five U.S
  • carriers at the same price point
Cons:
  • Samsung's TouchWiz software includes a lot of half-baked features that aim for innovation but miss the mark - sharing apps in particular
  • Styling is boring, and not exciting enough for a flagship phone

Samsung Galaxy S3 Camera Review

The Samsung Galaxy S III is a great smartphone with a comprehensive imaging feature set including a customizable camera user interface, manual control over white balance, exposure compensation and various digital filters and effects. Operation is very quick with a responsive AF and very fast shot-to-shot times but the S3 lacks a physical shutter button and fine image detail in low light not quite up with the best in class.
Pros:
  • Fast operation and almost non-existent shutter-lag
  • Fast AF
  • Reliable focus and metering
  • Good quality HD video
  • Comprehensive imaging feature set
  • Manual control over ISO and exposure compensation
  • Efficient HDR mode
  • Customizable camera app UI
  • Good array of retouching options in the Gallery app
  • 4.8 inch screen great for composing images
  • New image sharing options
Cons:
  • No physical shutter-button
  • Strong noise reduction and sharpening create 'mushy' low-contrast detail
  • Soft low-light images
  • Slightly unintuitive menu structure
  • Lack of shutter speed indication limits usefulness of manual ISO capability
  • Unreliable white balance when using flash in mixed light situations

Samsung Galaxy S3 4G

When you boil it right down, it's a pretty straight trade-off between 4G speeds and battery life, and that will ultimately be your decision to make. For us, this is a bad swap. There's no point in having blazing-fast data speeds if you have no battery life to power the phone, and 12 hours of...
Pros:
  • Same great Galaxy S3 design
  • Great 4.7-inch screen
  • 4G data speeds
Cons:
  • 4G heavily impacts battery life
  • No HDMI port

  • super large screen
  • some interesting interface ideas
Cons:
  • Android isn't as good as iOS
  • Google's Play store isn't as good as the App Store
