Review: Samsung Galaxy S3

“Inspired by nature, designed for humans”, Samsung’s Galaxy S3, hailed as the iPhone-killer, wowed the world with its state-of-the-art specifications. We are not surprised that the flagship has become the most successful mobile of the Korean company up to now. But the fact that it has hit the 20 million sales milestone within just 100 days is still astounding. Anyway, if you are still pondering to join the array of these 20 million S3 owners, this review may just come to help. Here we will highlight some of what we think are the most remarkable features of the S3:

- Display: The S3’s 4.8" display is pretty generous. Samsung calls the HD Super AMOLED display seeing reality, which is probably not exaggerated. The image quality is just mind-blowing with the nice colour saturation. You may even switch between four different colour saturation modes: Dynamic, Standard, Natural and Movie. The display excels at video playback and web browsing too, giving you superb viewing experience.

- Smart Stay: By using the front camera, the S3 knows if you are looking at the screen. The display never dims or locks when you are reading or browsing websites, bringing a great pleasure to your reading experience.

- S-Beam: This feature allows you to transfer documents and files between Galaxy S3s. By putting the backs of two S3 phones together, you can bond them together and share their content. This is a clever trick to foster brand loyalty.

- S-Voice: S-Voice lets you go totally hands-free with your voice. The feature can be used to perform basically all those usual tasks like searching the Net, making/rejecting calls, texting messages, turning your music up/down as well as setting alarms. You can also activate the camera by saying “I want to take a picture” and shoot the photo by saying “Cheese”. There is, however, plenty of room for improvement in the feature. Users found it slow to process sounds and sometimes unable to catch their commands. You may be better off using your fingers than your voice. 

- Direct Call: Direct Call is another tweak in the S3. When you are reading or texting a message and want to make a call instead, you can just lift the phone to your ear and the handset will automatically dial the person’s number for you. This is no doubt a huge invention for the lazybones.

- Pop up Play: It is a feature included in the video player. You simply drag the video window to where you want on the screen so that you can perform other tasks while still watching the video. The feature is great as it keeps you multitasking. Yet, there is a drawback—you cannot custom-size the video window.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 may not have the beauty outside—many people (including us) rolled their eyes when they first saw the design. Yet, its inner beauty is certainly impressive enough. With its gorgeous screen, powerful chipsets and top-of-the-line features, it is more than just a smartphone; it is a gadget that truly understands what we need.

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (GT-i8160) – A Wonderful Device at A Reasonable Price


Riding the success of the original Samsung Galaxy Ace, the Korean phone maker has released a decent follow-up—Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (GT-i8160)—that retains some of the original’s much-appreciated features, while bumping up a number of specs to make it a reassuring handset for the low- to mid-range market.

The first thing you will notice on the Galaxy Ace 2 is its 3.8-inch Super PLS LCD screen with 480x800-pixel resolution, up from the previous 3.5-inch screen with only 320x480-pixel resolution. Despite the now larger screen display, the Galaxy Ace 2 has slimmed down by 1mm to measuring 10.5mm thick, and weighs fairly light at 122g. The phone sports an unassuming yet solid design—a slightly textured back with round corners—which is commonly found on a lot of Samsung’s recent Android-powered devices.

Some might be disappointed that the new Ace does not come with the latest version of Google’s OS, but the combination of Android 2.3 Gingerbread and Samsung’s own TouchWiz 4.0 interface still offers a smooth and intuitive user experience. To further improve its performance, the Galaxy Ace 2 is now equipped with an 800MHz dual-core processor and 768MB of RAM, an obvious improvement over the single-core processor and 278MB of RAM of the original Ace. You also get an abundance of connectivity options like Wi-Fi, A-GPS, HSDPA, DLNA and Bluetooth.

People looking forward to communication and multimedia features won’t be let down either. The phone hosts a wide spectrum of messaging and email options. On the back of the device, you will find a 5-megapixel camera that can be used to shoot 720p HD video at an impressive 30-frames-per-second. You can play the recorded clips with the integrated video player, which also handles other file types including DivX and Xvid. In additions, there are a VGA front-facing camera for video chats, a built-in TouchWiz music player for playing audio in various formats, and a 3.5mm jack that is compatible with your own pair of standard earphones. You can save all your files in the 4GB of internal storage, or additional storage via an up-to-32GB microSD card.

What’s more, the smartphone comes with Swype, Android’s stock browser, Adobe Flash and YouTube pre-installed. And thanks to the search giant’s iconic Google Play store, finding more apps to enhance your smartphone experience is just a few clicks away.

The Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (GT-i8160) is no hardware monster or groundbreaking powerhouse, but it continues and betters its predecessor’s role as a decent near-budget alternative, which will appeal to those who are picking their first smartphone or pay-as-you-go mobile.

Samsung Infuse 4G SGH-i997 – A Stellar Multimedia Powerhouse


Amazingly thin and fast, the Samsung Infuse 4G (SGH-i997) is yet another solid Android offering from AT&T's portfolio. It is packed with a load of great hardware and software features, such as a 1.2 GHz processor, a 8-megapixel camera, Android 2.2 operating system and Samsung's TouchWiz user interface, making it an attractive smartphone that shines especially bright on the multimedia department.

Without a doubt, the main selling point of the Infuse 4G is its 4.5-inch Super-AMOLED Plus screen display, which offers 50 percent more sub-pixels than touchscreen using the previous-generation Super-AMOLED technology. The screen has a 480x800-pixel resolution and is equipped with multi-touch support. With such a big screen, the device is fairly large at 5.2" high by 2.8" wide. Still, measuring just 0.35" thick and weighing only 4.9 ounces, it is still manageable and pocketable.

As an Android 2.2-powered device, the Infuse 4G is loaded with an array of common Google goodies, namely Gmail, Google Talk, Google Search, Google Voice Search, Google Latitude, Google Maps with Navigation, Google Places and Android Market. Samsung has incorporated its own TouchWiz 4.0 UI in the device, bringing a number of handy features, like a total of seven customizable home screens and a thumbnail view of all panels.

As you would expect, the Infuse 4G is a media master that is full of entertainment goodies. To start with, the built-in music player supports MP3, WMA, and AAC/AAC+, while the video player is compatible with MPEG4, H.264 and H.263. There are two cameras: an 8-megapixel back-facing one with LED flash, auto focus and 720 HD video recording, and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing one with video chatting support. The phone is also preloaded with Media Hub, an online store where you can find an extensive range of movies and TV shows for rent and purchase. Some other prominent media features include HDMI-out ability, AT&T Mobile Hotspot capability, and an HTML web browser with Adobe Flash 10.1.

Like most Android smartphones, the Infuse 4G provides full email and messaging capabilities. You have access to both personal and corporate e-mail with support for Microsoft Exchange as well as personal accounts. Threaded text messaging, multimedia messaging and instant messaging are onboard as well.

In addition, the smartphone comes loaded with a lot of useful features, such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, a Swype keyboard, a 3.5mm headphone jack, 16GB of internal storage, plus an expansion slot for microSD card up to 32GB. You will also find a few pre-installed apps and services on the device, including Quickoffice, AT&T FamilyMap and AT&T U-verse Live TV.

The Samsung Infuse 4G (SGH-i997) proves itself an exceptional device for both communication and media consumption. If you are particularly fond of giant screens and don't mind its big size, this would be a great choice as your next upgrade.

Samsung Galaxy S 4G (SGH-t959V) – The Absolute Winner in Speed


The Samsung Galaxy S 4G, a follow-up to the Samsung Vibrant and a 4G variant of the popular Galaxy S, is the first to support T-Mobile's super-fast 4G network. Taking advantage of its speed upgrade, the smartphone offers users a wonderful entertainment experience with its wide range of entertainment options, such as Mobile TV, Samsung Media Hub, videoconferencing and mobile hotspot functionality.

The Galaxy S 4G has the exact same size (4.82" high by 2.54" wide by 0.39" deep) and weight (4.16 ounces) as the Vibrant, and also retains the 4-inch (480 x 800) super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display. The smartphone runs on Android 2.2 Froyo OS, but its user interface is based on Samsung's own TouchWiz 3.0. You will find two virtual keyboard options, Samsung and Swype, for quick and easy typing.
The Galaxy S 4G's multimedia features remain pretty much the same as its predecessor. The rear-facing camera/camcorder lets you take 5.0-megapixel photos and record 720p HD videos. Working with Skype's QIK software, the front-facing camera gives you the ability to engage in video chats without buffering. A TouchWiz music player and a Flash-equipped WebKit browser are on board as well.

To enrich your entertainment options, the new Galaxy S is also pre-installed with an array of applications from Samsung and T-Mobile. T-Mobile TV allows you to watch free content from ABC News NOW, FOX Sports and some other stations. Samsung's Media Hub lets you download songs, movies and TV shows. And using doubleTwist with AirSync, you can wirelessly sync your iTunes or Windows Media Player between your phone and computer via Wi-Fi. In addition, you will find a full-length copy of the movie Inception, which you can enjoy right out of the box.

The Galaxy S 4G is also a powerful messaging device; it supports corporate email, Instant Messaging, multimedia messaging and threaded text messaging. Like other Galaxy S phones, it includes Social Hub, a social media aggregator that syncs your calendars as well as your contact messages, emails and social network activities into a single view.

In addition, you will find features like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi connectivity, voice-enabled GPS navigation, speakerphone, voice recognition, a proximity sensor, a light sensor, an accelerometer and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The device comes with 1GB of ROM and 512MB of RAM, and you can expand the storage capacity up to 32GB with an additional microSD card.

With blazing fast data connection and some other enhanced features, the Samung Galaxy S 4G is no doubt a welcome addition to T-Mobile's smartphone lineup, and an incredible device for streaming music and videos, loading web pages and downloading apps.

Samsung Zeal SCH-u750 – A Uniquely Good-looking Messaging Device


Optimized for quick messaging, the Samsung Zeal SCH-u750 for Verizon Wireless is a two-way flip phone with an innovative E-Ink technology keypad that changes its symbols based on what you need. While it resembles the Alias 2, its predecessor, in many ways, the Zeal includes some new apps to make itself a worthwhile follow-up.

The Zeal has a 1.3-inch (128x128-pixel) external CSTN display and a 2.6-inch (320x240-pixel) internal TFT display. At 4.01" high by 2.04" wide and 0.67" deep and 4.34 ounces, it is quite lightweight and pocket-sized.
Boasting the same dual-hinge clamshell design of the Alias 2, the Zeal opens in both portrait and landscape modes. If you open it vertically, a traditional numeric keypad will appear for dialing phone calls, while in texting mode, the buttons will transform into a four-row QWERTY keyboard.

With such an intuitive keypad, the Zeal naturally comes with full email and messaging options. Not only can you send and receive threaded text and multimedia messages, you can also engage in IM chats via Instant Messaging. Besides, mobile e-mail gives you access to AOL, Hotmail, Yahoo Mail and other email accounts. Using the RemoSync app for Microsoft Office Exchange, you can synchronize corporate emails, contacts and calendars from your office PC.

The Zeal is also preloaded with a few additional apps. Social Beat, a social network aggregating app, is onboard for keeping you connected to Facebook, Twitter and MySpace all the time. And with Skype Mobile, you can make and receive Skype-to-Skype calls on Verizon's network.

As for the entertainment department, there are three touch-sensitive music controls located on the front for the built-in multi-format music player. You can buy songs from Verizon's V Cast Music with Rhapsody via 3G. And as an GPS-enabled phone, the Zeal is compatible with VZ navigator for GPS turn-by-turn directions. Other services brought by the carrier include mobile WAP browsing, Visual Voice Mail, Family Locator and VZW Backup Assistant.

Last but no least, the phone itself sports Bluetooth capabilities, a 2.0-megapixel auto-focus camera with 10X digital zoom, a 2.5mm headset jack, a 1000-entry address book, a speakerphone, plus a microSD card slot with support for up to 32GB external memory.

Unique, well-built and comfortable to use, the Samsung Zeal is an all-round texting phone with a cool form factor that appeals to the younger generations.

Go Green with the Samsung Intensity II SCH-u460


A number of QWERTY phones have joined Verizon Wireless's text-friendly lineup this summer, and the Samsung Intensity II SCH-u460 is one of them. The new Intensity, while retaining some of the useful features found on its predecessor, adds an eco-friendly construction and a youthful interface to cater to teens and environmentalists.

The Intensity II is a PVC-free and Beryllium-free slider handset made from recycled materials. It has gained some weight and size over its predecessor, but stays portable at 4.1 ounces and 4.51" high by 2.87" wide by 0.10" deep. The phone is available in two color options: Metallic Blue and Deep Gray.
Like the original, the front slate slides to the right to reveal a full four-row QWERTY keyboard for convenient text messaging. Its enhanced screen display now measures 2.2 inches while showing 320x240-pixel resolution and 262k colors.

The Intensity II is all about social communication.
