The wait is finally over for the much anticipated Galaxy S III. There's been rumor after rumor for the past 3 months and last night Samsung finally revealed the 3rd installment of the popular Galaxy S line of smartphones. The unveil was very much in line with speculations and rumors. The Samsung Galaxy S III will host a 1.4Ghz Exynos 4 quad-core processor and 1 GB of RAM. Compared to the 1.2 dual-core processor in the Galaxy S II, the quad-core processor in the S III is said to consume less power thus extending your battery life. Another difference between the Galaxy S II and Galaxy S III is the screen size. The S II has a 4.3 inch screen and the S III will have a 4.8 inch screen. The difference in screen size makes the latest Galaxy S longer and slightly thicker than the S II. The camera in the S III is the same HD camera found in the previous model but there is no problems there as the camera in the S II is one of the best on the market. The main camera is a 8 MP auto focus camera with flash & zero shutter lag. The front facing camera is a 1.9 MP capable of HD video recording and video chat.
Samsung added some extra features that is exclusive to the Galaxy S III. One cool feature is when you are texting someone, you can raise the phone to your ear and it will automatically call them. Another feature is S Voice which is very much like Apple's Siri. The camera for the S III will feature burst mode where it takes 20 pictures with a push of the button. Then use Best Shot to choose the best from a series of 8. The Samsung Galaxy S III will have FlipBoard pre-installed since it is not available in Google Play Store.
Other official specs include: 4.8 inch HD Super AMOLED (1280x720) display, Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), Video Recording & Playback: Full HD (1080p), 16/ 32GB User memory (64GB available soon) ＋ microSD slot (up to 64GB), Direct call, Smart alert, Tap to top, Camera quick access, S Beam, Buddy photo share, Share shot, AllShare Play, AllShare Cast.
