Wah so fast !!
Hope can get the cases and screen protector in before the phone launch, support support ya

yeah, the back cover is the same material, only s3 is cover by hyperglaze.

What I thinking and shared in thread V2:



I think this sensor technology will come to smartphone soon. Hopefully Samsung Galaxy S IV will have it.

Let's look this video. How if the technology is in your smartphone? Very cool!

My nexus one and nexus S without screen protector until the day I sold them, no scratches...
my galaxy S II received 2 days scratched, I returned to UK and got another one.. until today, S2 screen have minor scratches...

you means the front material is made by hyperglaze ?
confuse

what he mean is, the back cover for both devices are made of same material, the difference is s3's back cover is coated with hyperglaze.

so fast dis thread..didnt open it about 10 hours and oredy 100++ posts..many gudnews i read..dis is so cool..!!

Most ppl complain about how lousy Samsung's plastic is but little do they know it uses the same polycarbonate as HTC One X. However, there's an additional layer of coating which Samsung claims is made through a process called "Hyperglaze" that is scratch resistant

thanks for the explanation, finally understand it polycarbonate and hyperglaze thingy

There's a video showing a guy scratching the back of SIII in Mobile review which is posted a few pages back in case you missed it

dats mean its scratchless isn it.?

scratch-resistant, but not scratch-proof. Hope you understand the difference between the two

owh ok now i understand...thx ken..=)

No prob. Some additional read here
What's in a touch? The Samsung Galaxy S III polycarbonate debate

Even the phone is gorilla 2, but i'm still going to apply sp, don't like naked screen feel

Actually polycarbonate is compound name for plastic in layman term = same lor...

the only thing i waiting now is the final price of RRP and price, plans from all 3 telcos..

I beg to differ. There're many types/classes of plastics. Polycarbonate is very durable, able to resist high impact and deformations without breaking

Should be RM2,199 for 16GB

yr statement is true up to a certain content.. yes, with the prefix poly-, it is still plastic. but different plastic has different properties.. cannot lump them up and say it's the same..

just like gorilla glass, tempered glass and normal glass.. all oso silicon based, also glass.. but different properties..

Polycarbonate IS a class of thermoplastic. And most plastic materials can resist high impact and deformations. In fact PC is very hard and brittle. But if mix with other compounds can be very flexible like the one you're referring to.

You sir, is right to the point.

By the way just spicing up, chill
