Samsung Galaxy S3
This summer witnesses the launch of one of the most awaited phones so far, Samsung Galaxy S3, which is the advanced successor of Samsung Galaxy S II. What more? It comes with the good news that the phone does live-up to the much hyped expectations around it.
Being the next version of the most admired Galaxy S II, Samsung Galaxy S3 is loaded with cutting-edge technology and futuristic product features. With its 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, this is definitely one of the most powerful smartphones available in the market till date.

Looks, weight, and display, are the other categories where Galaxy S3 scores top. With its sleek stylish looks, and 4.8 inch wide display, Galaxy S3 is surely beauty with the brains. The 306ppi pixel density on the new Amoled screen provides striking HD display, making it a feast for the eyes. A weight of just 133g makes it one of the lightest in the segment and a true powerhouse. What more, the phone is also loaded with a whole new bunch of innovative features. Now one can not only talk to his phone, but can also look at it and the ‘smart’; phone (well it’s actually 1.9 megapixel front camera) recognizes it. Priced around £500, which is well justified by phone’;s technology and features, this is definitely one of the coolest picks of this summer.
iPhone 4S
Some names are legends, and iPhone is the classic example for this fact, and while the iPhone 4s is not new it is still a great phone. It is a phone that continues the tradition of the most loved iPhone. With an 800 MHz Apple A5 dual-core processor, along with 512 MB of memory, iPhone 4S offers impressively great user experience, exceptional multi-tasking capacity and fastest processing. Yet another striking feature of iPhone 4S is its Retina display with 326ppi pixel density that offers crystal clear clarity, providing an out of the world visual experience.
If smart phones are all about feasting one’s five senses, this is it. Just next to the heavenly visual experience, and a feather touch UI, iPhone 4S also offers excellent voice recognition software Siri, which performs varied functions on voice commands and can even find answers for user’s questions from the Internet.
This wonder widget is priced at $499 for 16GB edition, £599 for the 32GB version and a whopping $699 for the latest 64GB capacity, and is up for grabs this summer.

Am an old user of the Galaxy S3 and have been enjoying this baby running on the Ice Cream Sandwhich, I actually have no major issues with the ICS on Galaxy S3.
Jelly Bean is now available for me but I can’t make up my mind whether to make the upgrade or just stick with my old buddy – ICS
I have had the Samsung Galaxy S3 since the first day they camo out. It is any excellent phone, and i wait to see what the iphone 5 has to offer. If it isn’t on the ball, android make take it over.

I can’t believe that you just blogged about that subject. Not too many guys appreciate the value of these kinds of items Although not really specifically related, your website has provided me with a few great ideas for written content and design for a number of services websites I am building, for issues like Accountancy, Dentists, Plumbers, Solicitors and moving firms
The Samsung Galaxy now more elegant and slim. I like it much..
can’t wait to have it.
I like smarphones and among all new phones I liked Samsung Galaxy S3 the most because its elegant and very smart. Thanks for the share.
I was planing to go for HTC X as it comes with Dr Dre audio.But after the S3 appears all the plans changed.Now going to buy S3 instead of HTC.
There is no doubt that Samsung is leading the market of best smartphone.

Paul, I was a smart phone Luddite for years, but now a convert who loves my iPhone 4S and use it in ways I never imagined. The camera and video are amazing. I’ve basically stopped using by dedicated digital cameras! SIRI, meh. Don’t really use SIRI, but assume she will become smarter (and perhaps less commercial) in coming days.
I have a SGS1 and I skipped SGS2 because, apart from its dual-core and 1GB of RAM, the screen was just the same, but now, after the quad-core and HD screen race is launched, I think I’m gonna buy SGS3 some time this winter, after the price drops a little.
I love the iPhone 4S but it should be really interesting to see what the iPhone 5 will bring later this year. The iPhone 4S is a great phone but not a major step on from the iPhone 3GS. I think Apple need to do something a little special with the next version. Thanks for the post.

Great Product Reviews! I’m not really that impressed on Samsung mobile. I would prefer Iphone4S and Blackberry. There are certain applications that I enjoyed most in which this two has met my expectations.
Hi Paul
I really think that the Samsung Galaxy S3 look very nice. No doubt that it is a great phone. However I do think it is a bit pricy, but hopeful the price will drop a bit in the months to come.
