Samsung Galaxy S III is an impressive Android device released back in 2012, equipped with a high speed 1.4 GHz Quad-Core processor, a quite big 4.8-inches multi touch screen, and two cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 1.9 megapixels front side camera.
This cellphone is powered by a Samsung Exynos 4 (4412) chip, holding a very fast Quad-Core CPU speeding at 1.4 gigahertz with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a bit disappointing comparing with its great CPU. Collaborating with graphic calculations, this phone also counts with an ARM Mali-400 MP4 GPU clocking at 266 megahertz. This cellphone comes with a 64 GB excellent internal storage memory and an external memory card slot, enough to store hundreds of apps without thinking about filling the phone.
Samsung is offering this cellphone in a variety of color options: black, gray, brown, pink, blue, red and white. Regarding its construction quality, this phone is manufactured with Plastic. This device is a compact cellphone, taking into consideration it features a 4.8" display and it only has 5.38" long and 2.78 inches wide. Being just 0.34 inches thick,this phone is slim and stilized. Samsung did a very good design job making this device weight only 4.69 oz.
This cellphone has two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back side camera and a 1.9 mega-pixels front-facing camera. It is capable of capturing Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 frames per second. In addition, the camera features a large number of cool features like auto-focus, flash, digital image stabilization, fast burst mode, HDR mode, face detection shooting and geo tagging.
Samsung equipped this cellphone with an absolutely amazing 4.8 inches display, and a resolution of 1280 x 720 (HD), which makes everything look beautiful and brightful. Its display uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, with a 300 candela/m2 brightness and can detect multi touch gestures.
This cellphone features a 2100 mAh huge Li-Ion battery that can keep it running for many hours, but you may need to charge it after some heavy use. According to Samsung, this cellphone has an aproximate 830 hours stand by time and a 22.5 hours talk time.
The S III includes WiFi capability (and it can be shared with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ 4G data connection, that is not as fast as LTE-A or LTE 4G networks and 3G fast connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a Micro SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
This cellphone also features lots of cool features like Wireless charging, NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth and GPS Geolocation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.
This phone costs $ 215, not a very good offer for comparing with other similar phones. No matter whether you will use it as a gamer cellphone, you love taking photographs, need it for work or will use it as a social cellphone, you will definitely be very satisfied with this cellphone.
