because higher clockspeed.

whats wrong with Mali-400.
its a good gpu.
i still can play all game from playstore without lag on my S2.
*
I guess his concern is that Mali 400 is an outgoing tech as far as the flagship phone is concern.

Don't know why I'm doing this, but:

Exynos = SOC. includes cpu,gpu,etc
Mali = GPU, which resides in exynos.

I've seen the rumored benchmarks, can produce almost the same fps by overclocking GPU to 400mhz (default highest is 267mhz), which I assume would be the clock speed used in S3

No worries. They'll get the point.

this waterproof tech is one of the selling point which i think can boom up s3 sales .

most people facing problem when they want to go seaside / beach / swimming pool but force to leave their smartphone inside bag , and worry somebody will steal their phone .

Agree with you.

just curious how long it will take for the phone to be available after announcement. hopefully not too long, around 1 month would be ok
*
Normally it will be available according to region unless for whatever reason they have the capability and volume to do worldwide launch (which is unlikely). If they go by region, then don't expect it to come so soon as we are not that high in the international priority list.

The same phone or a phone with the same name?

BTW, how can they tell? October is way to far ahead, especially in a mobile world. Many thing can happen by then.

I guess I will have to wait as there will be no S3 for me.

Samsung only put normal pentile SAMOLED (no PLUS). Damn Samsung.

Then I guess we will just have to wait for the latter model. Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise since the latter model might come with Exynos 5 anyway.

So the leaks are true.  The design is not surprising at all.

For me the design is not that big of an issue because the general design of samsung model has become more and more generic. The let down for me is the pentile screen.

what so bad about pentile screen?  My Note with pentile screen is just gorgeous!!!  biggrin.gif

PLUS and no-PLUS (Pentile) will have visual quality different. That is the 2nd reason I did not go for Note. The 1st reason is its humongous size.

is it a BIG difference? im pretty much satisfied with mine SGS amoled until today
*
Quite big. An for the screen of the same size and resolution, using PLUS will save you around 18% (if not mistaken) more energy. So your 2100mAh battery will last longer. Especially for a guy like me who use phone 99% of the time to surf internet while on the go. To really talk over the phone, I use my Nokia 1280. thumbup.gif

I guess it is just a matter of personal preference as I like S3 design more. But all in all, I am not going to get myself a pentile screen in the mid of 2012. This is year 2012 already. biggrin.gif

just wondering why a pentile screen on S3?  The Note get the pentile becoz of the S Pen feature i think.  S3 does not come with a stylus, why pentile?   hmm.gif
*
All the latest model that supposed to have HD screen did get pentile simply because the technology to make HD RGB is not there yet (economically speaking). When they mode from SAMOLED+ with 800X480 to HD, they need to revert back to pentile as they cannot yet make RGB version with such a high PPI. At least that is what I heard.

Lucky you. thumbup.gif

For me, I only have budget for ONE top of the line phone or I can just go with the 2nd best phone and get myself a china brand tablet with the money left. Of course I would like to have both top of the line Tab and Phone but that is what I can afford right now. cry.gif

i have to agree... i won't really consider S2 to actually have a design. it's squarish. the only thing that was great for S2 at that time... thinnest smartphone in the market. that was impressive for the power functions it packed.

s3... at least you can see some resemblance of 'design'. it uses curves. it's no longer squarish.
*
That is exactly my thinking.
