That it's more than the sum of its parts. Individually, the slightly larger and better display, stronger processor and faster camera may not sound that special, but in daily operation they score major combo points: gathering up all the best bits of the older Galaxy S II and re-working them into a solidly modern (read: mid-2012) device. The power- and storage-hungry Android user simply cannot go wrong with this purchase, and neither can those looking for a great camera. The Verge QUOTE That having been said, the Galaxy S III is a technological triumph. Not at first sight, perhaps, but Samsung has done the overwhelming majority of things right. The camera is easily the best I’ve used on an Android device, the processor claims the title of benchmarking champion, and the customizations layered on top of Ice Cream Sandwich are mostly unobtrusive and sometimes even helpful. They never really gel into one coherent user experience, meaning you’ll have to learn what each new feature does individually rather than intuiting it from the phone’s general behavior, however that’s a trifling complaint when compared to our usual disappointments with Android OEM skins. TouchWiz may still have its illogicalities, but it’s been cleaned up and streamlined sufficiently to make it an adequate alternative to Google’s stock experience. While neither the display nor the construction materials on the Galaxy S III are the best possible, both represent acceptable compromises that help Samsung balance out the rest of its class-leading spec sheet. The extra-large size of this phone, even with its great ergonomics, may prove to be a stumbling block for those who can’t comfortably fit a 4.8-inch handset into their daily routine. Still, the popularity of the Galaxy Note has shown that phone buyers are willing to look to more exotic form factors in their pursuit of novelty and extra functionality — and the Galaxy S III suffers no shortage of either. SlashGear QUOTE No, this isn’t the epiphany in metal, ceramic and glass we were hoping for from Samsung, but if the company had to compromise in some places on the Galaxy S III, we’d rather accept a somewhat plasticky handset with the incredible performance, brilliant screen and great camera than a nicely-dressed dog. We try not to read too much into raw benchmarking, but the day to day experience of the Galaxy S III suggests this is one of the best performing, most usable Android devices around, if not the best. PhoneArena QUOTE The Samsung Galaxy S III is a spectacular phone. A big part of what makes it spectacular is its incredible specs sheet. Yeah, although its specs can easily be rivaled by strong competitors like the HTC One X, which also has a quad-core processor and the other beloved tech goodies, the Galaxy S III manages to shine brighter, thanks to its superior user experience. It doesn't falter as far as core functionality goes, and it even takes care of the minor stuff, trying to improve every possible aspect of your usage. For a first time ever, TouchWiz actually feels like a good thing. It doesn't completely cover up the great ICS UI, but changes it just enough to make the phone feel different from the stock experience. It adds a lot of nice touches here and there, providing you with more options and customization, without appearing cluttered. We absolutely loved the fact that Samsung has left little hints at some places, which definitely help make the learning curve a lot smoother. Well, the device is bulky. You'll definitely have to forget about the comfort of using it with one hand only. But that's the way it is with this new breed of Android superphones. If you want to have a giant touchscreen, then you'll have to put up with having a giant phone. Except for this one little thingy, everything else regarding the phone is on the positive side. The camera isn't perfect, but it's at least good, better than most of the competition. However, when you factor in the flawless user experience of the Galaxy S III, it quickly becomes evident that there's hardly a better Android smartphone currently around. Samsung has once again nailed it with the Galaxy S III and HTC better sell as many of those One Xs while it still can, because the king of the Android jungle is back, and it seems to be very pissed off. AndroidNZ QUOTE In order to satisfy the ever-decreasing attention span of the human species, let's wrap this up into some neat n tidy bullet points: - While the S III design has drawn more than it's share of criticism, it isn't actually dreadful in person and in concert with the build quality and ergonomics turns out to be more than the sum of it's parts - Ergonomically speaking the S III is extremely good, with a nice weight distribution and curves that sit well in the hand and should make for comfort in longer sessions with the phone - The screen is not the best around, that title still belongs to the HTC One X, but that said the screen is still truly excellent and should disappoint few buyers - Synthetic benchmarks are best-in-class, and more importantly... ...in actual use the S III proves itself the most fluid smartphone yet produced, exceeding even the vaunted (and truth be told, hyperbolic) reputation of the iPhone for smoothness This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Jun 7 2012, 01:31 AM

stars for what All Stars 12,410 posts Joined: Jan 2008 From: KL - Cardiff - Subang - Sydney	What to do when you first get your phone QUOTE 1) check for matching IMEI with phone and box. 2) check all contents are available in box 3) check for dead pixels. use samsung function test by typing this code #0# into the dialer. go through all the test and make sure everything is working 4) check for any hardware defects by pressing the phone at several spots for squeaking or weird noises. Frequently Asked Questions » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « DOWNLOAD THE USER MANUAL HERE http://www.scribd.com/doc/93637061/User-Manual-I9300 Credits to Kevin_Low for this section Camera How long does it take from the lockscreen to the first shot? It takes about three seconds with practice – the camera app launches in about 1 second from the lock screen, with most time spent dragging the camera icon up and then pressing the shutter button at the bottom of the screen. It’s very very quick, certainly. Are third party apps as fast as the built in camera? Yes, they seem to be just as fast. Instagram, for instance, worked perfectly – the app loads more quickly than on my Galaxy Nexus and the filters were also applied very quickly. Is the camera as good as everyone says? It’s a good combination of the SGS2 and Galaxy Nexus cameras – very sharp pictures taken instantly. The speed is quite astonishing. The quality is similar to the One X and iPhone 4S – none of these are really that different from each other overall. Is there a pink spot on the camera in artficial light? This still seems to be present, sadly. Otherwise though, the camera seems very good, an improvement on the S2 and similar the One X (although the camera app is a bit less well laid out). Is there a problem with the video autofocus? Yes, that is something that a lot of people seem to be experiencing. Hopefully it will be fixed in software. Memory How much free RAM does the system report right after booting? 359 MB used, 420 MB free. How long does the phone take to reboot? Exactly 30 seconds. How much disk space is available on a clean phone? 10.9 GB is free (with 3 small apps downloaded and installed). Is the same partition used for app data and user date, so that taking pictures will fill the same space as installing apps? Yes, that’s correct. Screen Is there any oleophobic screen layer? Yes, there appears to be one similar to the Galaxy Nexus. That said, it still gets pretty fingerprinty. Screen visibility in the sun? It’s not great, worse than the One X and iPhone. Still, anti-glare screen protectors should be available soon. Battery Battery life? It’s very very good – we haven’t done our own tests, but GSMArena has done some nice ones. How long does it take to charge? About one hour and 45 minutes, but I haven’t done a charging test. It charges very slowly over USB, which suggests it’s best practice to turn it off if you’re charging it from a PC instead of from a car charger or wall adapter. Sound How good is the rear speaker? It’s pretty good actually, better than the Galaxy Nexus for sure. You’d still want headphones or external speakers for serious listening though. How good does it sound on headphones – are the equalisers any good? Yeah, they’re top notch. They’re not this Beats rubbish, and they work exactly as you’d expect. Chassis How is the build quality? The coating of the S3 is the same ceramic material as used in the One X, but looks worse thanks to the removable back cover (and therefore the micro SD slot and the removable battery). It feels a lot better in the hand than you’d expect, I like the curves and personally prefer it to the One X. Does the phone heat up? Not in my experience, despite running benchmarks, 1080p videos and all the rest. If this is a problem for you, there is a mesh case which provides better head dissipation (for your hand and the S3!). Are there any build flaws like the One X has (e.g. flickering or display ripple?) No, not on this particular model. Network How well does the GPS work? Pretty well – lock is relatively quick, and I saw about 18 satellites in the UK on a cloudy day (if that makes a difference). What bands / frequencies does the international GSM version use? According to GSMArena, it uses: GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 and HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100. I don’t know if that’s accurate, but I don’t know a way of testing this on the phone itself. Does the wireless work well? The S2 seemed to have poor wireless range. It seems to work as well or better than the Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S2 and iPhone 4s. How is the signal strength? It seems to work very nicely, no complaints here. Software Does S Voice work well enough for normal average use? Not really. It’s hit-and-miss, worse than Siri in both comprehension and particularly in the time it takes to get an answer. Still, it’s the best effort we’ve seen on Android thus far. Does Android 4 make a difference? A huge one – Android 4.0 is the biggest Android upgrade ever and is really slick and easy to use. I prefer it unskinned (as on the Galaxy Nexus), but it’s still very good in both performance, default apps and usability. Does Face Tracking (Smart Stay) work? Yes, it works much better than I expected. Not turning off the screen while you’re reading it is a really nice subtle change that makes the phone a lot more human-friendly; definitely one of the better features on the S3. Does S Voice work with Bluetooth headsets out of the box? Yup, it seems to work just fine! Does it employ the same aggressive background app termination policy as the One X? No, it seems to use the standard Android scheduler in my experience. Can you set a video file as a live wallpaper? Not out of the box, no. What’s the maximum amount of apps you can have open? Will it crash? Not in our testing; it handles multiple apps quite well although as it has 1 GB of RAM it may have to terminate them more frequently than the forthcoming LG handsets with 2 GB of RAM. How does the video player work? How is video performance? 1080p video works just fine, including large files of h264 at 40 Mbps. MKV containers aren’t natively supported, but will work in Dice Player and other third party apps. YouTube in the web browser works less well than the YouTube app, as you’d expect. 720p YouTube is flawless. These all work: One, Two. How does Grand Theft Auto 3 run and look? It’s incredibly fluid, no FPS drops and looks as good as on PC. What games are free in the Game Hub? Blackjack, Vegas Strip City, Call of Duty Modern Warfare (e.g. COD4), Zombie Escape 3D: School Labyrinth, Chameleon War Free, Fish Pop Bop, Toyshop Adventures HD, Inotia 3: Children of Carnia, Build-a-lot, Labyrinth of the Goblin, Slice It, loads more that I don’t recognise. Most seem to be for children. Comparisons to the Samsung Galaxy S2? It’s a massive leap forward – the leap to HD resolution is one that you’ll most appreciate, but twice the number of cores, a bigger screen and the new Android 4.0 TouchWiz skin are all massive boosts. Definitely worth the upgrade. to the HTC One X? I prefer the TouchWiz UI to HTC’s Sense, although I prefer vanilla Android 4 to both of these. The S3 has a different styled chassis that most people seem to dislike (although that changes when they actually use the S3). Both are very similar in size and weight, which is to say a massive screen, thin chassis and not as much weight as you’d expect. The One X has an arguably better screen, which is less bright but has better colour reproduction, no Pentile and is more usable in sunlight. to the Galaxy Nexus? It’s basically a much more powerful and slightly larger Galaxy Nexus, with TouchWiz instead of vanilla Android. The camera is noticeably improved, the display is a little brighter and bigger. I still prefer the vanilla OS, but some TouchWiz additions are nice. The front-facing camera is a lot better. Accessories What’s special about the C-Pen? The C-Pen has a much smaller nib than most capacitive styli, meaning it’s much easier to do precision work. It also looks fantastic and looks real classy. We’ve got a video coming soon, so stay tuned for a link! Best case for the S3? Probably I’d go for the Flip Cover, which is a nice mixture of protection and size. It replaces the existing back cover so you don’t add much bulk, and it feels a lot more durable than what it replaces. The screen protection is also good; you can even close the cover when talking on the phone. The texture is unchanged and it’ll work with the S3 docks. Essential accessories? A good wall charger or desk stand is essential – the S3 seems to charge very slowly over a USB connection (e.g. from a PC). The C Pen is also great, particularly if you’re a fan of drawing games like Draw Something. It’s also handy for notes using the included S Memo app. Finally, there are a lot of good Samsung Galaxy S3 cases on the market, including the Flip Cover listed above and the Slim Case. Tips and Tricks » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Tips on battery saving QUOTE Try to use manual screen brightness instead of automatic, setting it to 50% or below. You can disable wifi and data connection if you're not using it that frequent, turn it on only when you need to use it.Disable all auto syncing will help as well.You can set the sleep timer below the 1min default setting, as this will off the screen earlier and safe some power.Monitor your task manager once in a while to kill off running apps and processes How to get Flipboard without downloading the apk from XDA - credits to farscope QUOTE go to apps >> more services, then it will lead u to samsung apps, then u will be able to get flipboard there. other apps like S Baro for pressure, My Story (as in GNote) and others are in there. How to register eWarranty yourself (without help from dealer) - credits to lostasylum QUOTE email to the following address: ewarranty.sme@samsung.com with the following details: FULLNAME: CONTACT NO: IMEI NO: SERIAL NO: and a scanned copy of the receipt. apparently samsung will revert within 3 weeks How to check warranty period QUOTE Send PC " YOUR IMEI" to 62002 (for maxis and digi) or 33802 (for celcom) How to switch off wifi power saving mode - credits to nidunalza QUOTE Type #0011# to open a service menu> options key > wifi > set wifi power saving to OFF.

It'll help them understand the details better. Just a thought though. i will update those later on.

RM2k + HP battery should be around RM199++ are you sure the S3 battery build in NFC ? NFC chip is inside the battery. can take a look at the battery, there written NFC Added on June 7, 2012, 6:02 pm QUOTE(arKCHane @ Jun 7 2012, 05:59 PM) Crazy ass! This thread is moving so fast like lightning! At first I'm planning to get the 64GB version and add another 64GB microSD but read online that the 64GB version will only be launched by end of year so I'll get the 32GB version with 64GB microSD tied up 2 years under Maxis. Anyone's S3 confirm able to work with SanDisk's 64GB Class 10 microSDXC? no problems with it. i'm using currently but don't have 32gb now yet. only 16gb This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Jun 7 2012, 06:02 PM
