this is the first time samsung making their own processor using their own fabrication process, hence u see 32nm. before this all is done by TSMC, and the well known problems are yielding issues.
so lets not put too high hopes first, it might turn out to be a success, or a disappointment |

I wouldn't totally count out the physical home button. It is after all, the main differentiator between Samsung and other Android manufacturers, aside from Exynos. Remove that, you get a hardware like Nexus. Put in all capacitive buttons, you get OneX.
Granted, I've only vaguely read news that says the resolution is such that it would make space for some virtual keys like Galaxy Nexus. |

No its not. They have built Exynos for years. It is just that they source other SoC for their phones as well.so lets not put too high hopes first, it might turn out to be a success, or a disappointment This post has been edited by nakTT: Apr 28 2012, 04:16 PM |

QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Apr 28 2012, 08:26 PM) The article was saying the WP variant will probably be named Focus S2.Anyway, it might not be true as the author claimed that the Focus S was actually an S2 with name change was wrong, their spec were definitely not the same.

an article from xda about the processor
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-...ckers-overview/ QUOTE The Exynos 4412 processor, aka S5E4412, has been confirmed as the application processor for the Samsung Galaxy S III. After scouring the web for publicly available data sheets, best information listing I could come up with came from 8gpad. I’d like to take a minute and talk about the S5E4412 procssor. Lets start by breaking down the model number. S5= Samsung 5th generation processor. E is an unknown, however this has traditionally stood for the packging type (PoP or BGA). 44 = Exynos 4th generation and 4 cores. The 12 is unknown to me at this time, however I do believe it deals with the video capabilities and/or revision. Please correct me in the comments below. This Quad-Core CORTEX A9 processor supports NEON extensions as expected. Unexpectedly though, while it is a 32 bit processor, this bad mama-jamma supports up to 128bits internally, which is double that of the previous Exynos models. For those of you “connected” individuals, you should be happy to know that the processor natively supports USB-OTG, USB-Host, and USB-Device modes. Lets all just hope that Samsung does not let us down and forget to connect a 5V line to the USB driver chip. The processor also supports up to 4 SD Cards. For those interested in communicating directly with the processor, this processor supports Samsung’s CORESIGHT debugger at 200 MHz and 1v. 4 UART ports, 8 i2c ports and 3 SPI ports. It also has 64KB of IROM memory that is used to initialize the processor itself. Personally, I think it’s time that Samsung took a hard look at their configuration issues. Given the hardware above, the features of the device could greatly be expanded with only a small change to their standard operating procedures seen previously. I’d like to see some changes to the boot sequence. More specifically, in that 64KB of IROM memory, there is a set of instructions which lets the device boot directly from USB. This needs to be accessible somehow for those emergencies we at XDA-Developers have every day. Why this is kept locked down, I will never understand. The device should be easily revived in case of emergency, and its well within the capabilities of the device. xOM5 modification please. Here’s hoping Samsung uses their own hardware the way it’s designed to be used! This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Apr 29 2012, 12:19 AM |

some interesting info i found, this is just my own speculation so take it with a pinch of salt
this is the sgs 2 skyrocket hd for at&t http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_i...ket_hd-4414.php the screen on s3 would probably follow the one from this phone. however i have a feeling that the design might even follow it, based on the comments on that page there have been no news to this phone since announcement in jan and one guy claim all info have been deleted from the courier website, suggesting it may have been cancelled....mysteriously. so did samsung just took this phone, throw in a quad core processor, and rename it the sgs 3? all will be revealed next week wonder how the screen will stack up against all the leaders in this segment now, especially the one x http://www.phonearena.com/news/Display-com...xy-S-II_id28910 This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Apr 29 2012, 06:25 AM |
