Samsung Galaxy S III is a breath-taking Android device launched some years ago, in 2012, equipped with a 4.8" display, a high-tech Dual-Core CPU running at 1500 megahertz, and 2 cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 1.9 mega-pixels front-facing camera. Let's take a better sight of what this cellphone can do.

Samsung decided to equip this phone with an extremely fast Dual-Core CPU ticking at 1500 MHz, bundled in a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 system chip with a large 2 GB RAM. To collaborate with graphic rendering, this phone also uses an Adreno 225 graphic processing unit clocking at 400 MHz. A key advantage of this device is its huge 32 GB internal memory and an external SD slot, which allows the user to install hundreds of apps and even the heaviest games currently available without thinking about running out of space at all.

This device is available in 3 different colors, black, blue and white. Samsung did an excellent job making this phone weight just 4.69 oz. The S III is just 0.34 inches thick, taking it to the thinnest phone's category. Although this device only has 5.38 inches long and 2.78 inches wide, it manages to pack a 4.8" screen. Regarding its design, the S III is majorly built with Polycarbonate.

The Samsung Galaxy S III is equipped with two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 1.9 megapixels front facing camera. It can also shoot videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 fps. In addition, this device's camera also features a large number of valuable characteristics like auto-focus, flash, digital image stabilization, fast burst mode, face detection shooting, HDR mode and geo tagging.

Samsung packed this device with an awesome 4.8-inches screen, and a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, providing this phone with a great graphic quality. This screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This cellphone offers wifi connection (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a wireless router or modem), HSPA+ 4G connection type, which is not as fast as LTE networks and the fastest 3G internet connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The S III works with a Micro SIM card for GSM networks.

This cellphone uses a huge 2100 mAh Li-Ion battery, which isn't very much for a cellphone like this. Samsung afirms this cellphone has a talk time of 10 hs and a stand by time of 200 hs.

This phone also features a great numbre of cool features such as Wireless charging, NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

Samsung is selling this cellphone for $ 275, which is quite expensive for this kind of cellphone. This phone is probably a great choice for you it doesn't matter whether you need a phone for playing games, are looking for a phone for work, want this device to take lots of photographs or want a cellphone to mostly use social networks.
