Samsung designed the S3 Neo with a completely amazing 4.8 inches screen, and a resolution of 1280 x 720 (HD), which makes all images and videos look beautiful and brightful. Its screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

Samsung decided to power this device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 8226 system chip, holding a very powerful Quad-Core processor clocking at 1.2 GHz and a big 1,5 GB RAM memory. Graphic calculations generally consume lots of processing time, so it uses an extra Adreno 305 graphics processing unit speeding at 450 MHz to help with that calculations. This phone comes with aquite big 16 GB internal storage and a slot for external memory cards, allowing you to store a couple hundred games and apps without any problem.

Additionally, the camera counts with a high number of cool features: flash, auto-focus, fast burst mode, face detection shooting, digital image stabilization, smile detection shooting and geo tagging.

This phone uses an awesome 2100 mAh battery providing this cellphone a good battery life. According to Samsung, the S3 Neo has an estimated 14 hours talk time and a 330 hs stand by time.

This cellphone provides wi-fi connectivity (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ (4G) connection type, that is not so fast as LTE networks and 3G fast data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This phone has two Micro SIM cards to be able to to work with two different phone numbers in the same device.

The S3 Neo also comes with a few useful characteristics as NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo is not cheap at all considering it costs $ 250, and other similar cellphones are offerred way cheaper than that.
