BTW, anyone notice the button on S3, how come it doesn't have the recent apps button instead for a menu button? Or am I wrong on it?

TBH, native 3G call is really obsolete, no offence. How many ppl still use 3G call? For video call, mostly ppl now use Fring / Tango / Skype as it support WIFI plus you don't have to pay additional call charges for 3G. It is much more cheaper

Well say mate. I really hate Apple when they patent this and that and start suing everyone for such a small matter. All this suing really stop the evolution of mobile technology. We should be lucky that Apple is not the first company to invent a car. Else they gonna sue each and every company for putting 4 wheels on each car

Not sure if this has been posted. Quite a nice read up for early hands on experience on S3 from Trusted Review

The phone is glossy surface. So I believe it won't get dirty as easy as matte surface.

Both glossy and matte surface has their own pros and cos. Glossy won't get dirty easily but is prone to scratches and is a super finger print magnets. Matte surface is finger print and scratch resistance but easily get dirty. Luckily the material for white HOX is good where you can just wipe the stain off easily. Like how XPS does.

Hmm..this cover is sweet

This i believe is more on software. As long as your device has a front facing camera, it could possibly be ported. But somehow I believe this feature will drain the battery as you need to activate the front cam for it to work

Yes, indeed it is a great features. But if not mistaken some apps like browser will allow you to have the screen to stay on as long as you are on the app. Not sure on ebook or ereader

Forgotten which browser, I mean some 3rd party browser has this option. If not mistaken is dolphin. I can't really recall it but I do came across with it

EDIT : billy is faster

This is a feature of TW. So I believe custom ROM that based on TW will hv this features as well. Don't see any reasons why the developer will iron this out

Yeap. We won't know for now. Hopefully Samsung had produce enough of the Exynos process for S3.

Hmm, all speaker is place either at the top or bottom of the backplate. I don't see anything wrong with it

Can't agree more. Even thou I really don't like iphone, but really hv to give respect to late steve job. His presentation skill and persuasive power is really a strong and powerful tool to apple at that time

Having dinner with one of my fren who work in Samsung. She mention the S3 that reach our region might only be the 16GB version. ETA should be mid of June.

She will get bec to me once there is any confirmation on this. But if it is 16GB that reach us would be kinda sad. Luckily S3 comes with expandable memory

That is what my speculation on 32GB as well. But if really just 16GB then it is quite a let down. I do hope my fren gotten the wrong info

Anyone notice the toggles in the notification drop bar seems like can be swipe instead of the static one like S2

Ic. Usually I prefer white color device but somehow I find that the pebble blue is looking nicer on S3

To me voice control is only useful when I can't get my hand to touch the phone, usually during driving.

But problem is, with our slang and the way we are named, it is always hard to get the phone to dial the number we wanted.

The best voice calling experience I have is while using Nokia N95, almost every call can be voice dialled without a problem

But seems like the S Voice is quite accurately in the test by a Singaporean, hopefully it could be utilized more as a feature rather than a gimmick

At first I thought it is a mock up pic of GNex

Spec not really good compared to S3, but the border'less' edge to edge is really drooling

I'm in the same boat with you. During the launch I don't really like the design, especially the back design. Now, the design is growing in me especially the pebble blue instead of the white one which I love the most.
