have not heard abt this.

issit better than beats?
*
The chip is better than the one used in SII. Beats is just software if I'm not wrong.

Galaxy S - Wolfson
Galaxy SII - Yamaha
Galaxy SIII - Wolfson (slightly different from Galaxy S)

great article. as what was mentioned earlier, the dissapointments was the pentile matrix screen and the fugly design.

had a thought juz now.

maybe the 'success' of s note made samsung focus on software? after all, the margins is higher.
they use cheap plastic and past-generation screen, add a few software gimmick...then sell at same price.

more profits for the samseng.

I think Apple made the most profits out of 4S, if you know what I mean laugh.gif

Are u sure? Show proof!

Web reports said it looks and feels cheap, somethg like the s2.

Many ppl were terribly disappointed bcos cheap plastic was one of the major complaints against the s2.
But SAMSENG didn't improve it, and made it look worst!

I've posted a link up there if you would look at it. It's from Slashgear blush.gif

Hmm... Maybe HTC process and material is much better?

Material is the same according to that page. Maybe we'll have to get a real hands on to know the difference icon_rolleyes.gif

Just to add, the "hyperglaze" claimed by Samsung is more resistant to scratches

But they should've used something diff like aluminum , as plastic makes it looks a bit cheap, don't you think ?
*
As consumers, we keep hoping for premium materials like glass, aluminium, stainless steel.. But the global manufacturers shld know more right? Plastic is lightweight and won't get heated up easily. Besides, take a look at ip, although it seems to be built with higher quality materials, in fact it's not quite

QUOTE(tashfinsheikh @ May 5 2012, 01:20 AM)
Whats the diff between the prev glass and Corning Gorilla 2 ? any idea ? a link would be really appreciated  whistling.gif
*
Corning Gorilla Glass 2 is much slimmer, allow brighter images and increased touch sensitivity. Not to mention the durability and strength to withstand scratches/shock to prevent breaking when the device falls. You'll need to check out some videos on it biggrin.gif There're much more + things which Samsung doesn't state during the live event

Guys, since this phone use ICS, would like to know if there's any issue with apps compatibility. Would be sad if lots of apps still can't run properly on ICS.

FYI, I'm running ICS on my Galaxy S as well, have 144apps on my phone, so far none of them is not working smile.gif

Yeah, I would like to know too. Actually I feel the design's not that bad

Well, there is an article that the SGS3 was "designed" by lawyers so that Apple couldn't hold a case against it.
