coming to think of it, my SGT 10.1 also uses a Wolfson chip WM8994. no wonder it sounds better than s2..

i quote my previous post for u to read up abit on detail. other things u can read the reviews online, but dun trust everything they bash about s3..

my add in
5) supports up to 64GB SDXC (not SDHC)
6) Wolfson audio chip (with possible future Voodoo sound update)
7) better GPS with GLONASS
8) dual-band 128-bit GPU performance
9) Gorrila Glass 2
10) better power management embedded (not sure yet with real life usage, arguable)
11) better processor with new tech
12) better radio chip + voice equalizer for more clarity during calls
13) better camera sensor (but need real life test shots examples to judge it)
14) better Full HD video recording at 17Mbps sampling
15) more sensors than other phones
16) More native media file format support including FLAC
17) Thin and light
18) Bluetooth 4.0

Disadvantage:
2) Plastic build body (arguable, but i personally hoped for a liquid metal casing)

some testing has already been made. stop living in denial. while those require further verification i ady stated in my post.

by addressing Samsung as samseng, i can click the report button anytime.

if u wished to have a healthy debate, refrain from low-mental attacks. otherwise, i will just treat u as a troll no matter how hard u claim that this is a forum, freedom of speech or whatever crap reason u gave.

i read it somewhere, even thou using the same Mali-400, the number of cores is bumped up to 4 cores instead of 2 cores in SGS2. probably that explains y.

options available are 16/32/64GB.

but judging from the style of SME, they will only bring in 16GB.

first, i'm not upset. i respect u as a human being, hence i replied to your post in a mannered way while other ppl just treat u as a troll and ignores u.

as far as i'm concern, u didn't bring up much discussion at all.

i hope you can differentiate Samsung and samseng, while samseng is actually referring to sth bad, fruit on the other hand is not sth bad. Unless i called "Apple" as "CrApple", then it is a different story.

Mind you, don't try to twist words to be funny.

so your avatar also shows a big green guy with big hands (the hulk), does it means you are green and have big hands too?

Grow up pls.

Maybe some of them trying to justify their hox purchase in order to feel better by hating and bashing s3.

U know? sour grape mentality.

Finished read about the Chinese forum. Basically the same thing and idea I had in mind. But I salute that guy for writing wall of text with math equation to support it.

y not? apple sues anything they can think of included home button placement, rectangular shape with rounded edges and big screen, swipe to unlock, application menu bar etc etc.

i wont be surprise if they decided to sue on speaker placement, because that's what happened to SGT 10.1N where it has to alter the exterior design to suit the judge's and apple's needs.

as long as it's durable, i dont mind the feel. cz if its not durable, it will feel like rubbish after some time of usage or wear and tear.

dev love samsung also bcz of its popularity of the device as well, tw is not that suck imo, it still has its functionality. half half opinion. and mind you again with the samseng word.

to be sold separately but aint sure how useful is it when compare to S Pen. I believe no match. S Pen will be the identify for the Note series.

sensor and aperture is different. however, for sensor and aperture, the bigger the better.

the aperture size is denoted by the f-number. the smaller the number, the bigger the size.

sensor is similar to a film, but in digital form.

yr "equation" is not entirely true

smaller f-stop = larger aperture size = faster lens = faster shutter speed achievable for same exposure

while

larger camera sensor = more light = lesser noise = shallower DOF

while image quality depends on lens the most, followed by sensor + image processor (including noise filtering for high ISO)

the aperture has nth to do with the sensor.

no.. the bigger the better.. dont get it wrong..

the smaller u mean is the f number.

i.e. f1.8, f2.0 etc etc..

the smaller the f, the bigger the aperture size bcz it's inverse of it. just don't get confuse with f-number with aperture size.

if u learn optics in physics or u learn about photograph. the f number means the focal ratio.

it's actually the focal length over the diameter of the entrance pupil. go google up if u wanna know more. hope this clears up your doubts about the aperture and f-number relation.

it's getting out of topic with this aperture talk here ady.

your statement also half correct only. the ones highlighted in red shows that you are confused between aperture size and f-number

yes, bigger aperture size (smaller f-number) gives u narrower DOF (i.e. bokeh) but it doesn't matter if your sensor size is small. Everything will be focused.

DOF is contributed by a few factors, not only the aperture. the focal length, the sensor size, and the subject distance plays equally important role. with the small sensor and short focal length of a smartphone camera, it's unlikely to have a bokeh-ed picture even with a big aperture. The main reason for a small f-number will be only for the low light capability, which is mentioned in your second statement.

the last statement comparing the 50mm F1.2L and a 50mm F1.8 picture quality based on the aperture size is wrong. this shows u have little knowledge about photography. the picture quality has a big difference is because of the glass and the build of both lenses. not because of the aperture size. in fact, the sharpest aperture is always at a higher f-number, usually at f8.0.

i suggest that, if u r not well verse about some topic, then better don't confuse ppl by posting it.

it's a technology to increase the capturing of light, hence improving low light shootings.

theoretically yes.

actually any number below f2.8 is adequate for low light shooting, but of course, the smaller the better for the f-number.

in respond to your question. It will assist the s3 to perform better in low light when compared to non-BSI sensor.

but head to head comparing with other BSI smart phone cameras like the iphone 4S, Xperia S and the HOX, then we will need actually sample pictures to see how well it performs.
