What about audio quality? look at htc and beats audio.

Samsung must come with audio enhancement in SIII.
[Galaxy S III General] hIdd3N-:
Seriously Beats is sh*t. It's all marketing. Their Headphones s#%k hard and the HTC Beats crap is nothing more then a software dsp. If you want proper audio, get proper headphones like akg pro series or sennheiser or something else made with music in mind. If you really think that beats crap is any good you might aswell get yourself an iphone cuz you are nothing more than a trend wh+/re.
[Galaxy S III General] Rytkonen:
Samsung should get back to Wolfson audio and buy the Voodoo sound implementation from Supercurio to it. That would kill that Beats Audio.
[Galaxy S III General] layercake87:
naah, beats is not that extremely bad, at least they are ok for listining to electronic music but yes, they are not really worth the 100 €.
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
I'd prefer it if Samsung delayed the SGS3 until they could manage to get an exynos 5250 inside or OMAP 5430. I just have a bad feeling that samsung is going to put a quad core inside and say "Zomg look at the amount of Quadrants it gets!!", instead of focusing on what really matters. The exynos 4412 does not even have the 4-PLUS-1 architecture of the Tegra 3, so the battery life would take a serious beating.
[Galaxy S III General] Fysi:
But you get a free pair of headphones + a decent stock music player.
[Galaxy S III General] hIdd3N-:
Just so that you guys see that i know what i talk about:

SGS II + fiio E7 + AKG K701 & beyerdynamic customized mx 100

nao back to topic: i agree with you that sgs III needs a better audio chip.

SGS3 prototype shot by eldar?
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
lol thats a screenshot of dead s2.. :D
[Galaxy S III General] override182:
Yeah.. ive just noticed that it looks just like a SGS2.. but why Eldar put it in his site at the most bottom of the post.. does anyone read russian and try finding a clue perhaps there
[Galaxy S III General] uvaman:
link of the article !?

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 PM ----------

Prolly for sgs3

http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/27/samsung-8mp-backside-illuminated-zsl/

The English PR is out now and confirms a slim form factor 8.5mm x 8.5mm camera module with 5.5mm height dimension capable of 120fps 720p or 240fps slow motion video recording. Check the data yourself in the press release after the break.
[Galaxy S III General] fr3quency:
AHAHAHAHA @ 1080p display. Yeah ok, sure. :p

They will be dumb if they use Quad Core A9 instead of Dual Core A15, because first of all, no need for 4 cores and secondly, A15 dual core performs better than Quad Core A9. :)
[Galaxy S III General] Chad_Petree:
Htc REALLY stepped their game, i love how they're relasing fewer devices ;) the galaxy tab 2 , galaxy note 10.1 are super unnecesary :mad: , the build quality of the one s and one x is nothing short of amazing, all samsung has to do for the galaxy s iii is do something similar , use super amoled hd + virtual buttons and they'll have the device of the year
[Galaxy S III General] runedrune:
"The hardware is very light -- almost uneasily so. The 4.6-inch display that dominates the phone is bright and crisp and Fujitsu has finally cemented more of the specifications; we've been told it's a full HD (1080p) display, although the spokesperson was unable to confirm the screen technology, we suspect it's a high resolution LCD display." - This is about Fujitsu's new quad core phone. If they can put a 1080p screen on their phone I don't see why the SGS3 can't have it too.
[Galaxy S III General] Pennywice:
Rly looking forward to the SGS3, just got an SGS2 like 4 month ago. But i rly like new phone, and i think i have to get one when it gets out! Damn you samsung!!
[Galaxy S III General] jj03:
can't say i'm particularly arsed about a full 1080p display to be honest...take ya time samsung. give us a logical yet powerful upgrade to my gs2 and you have my cash...htc won't be getting my cash...their designs are so utterly bland.

The dude abides....
[Galaxy S III General] orathorn:
If the s3 out with nice specs,i rather go buy it than buying a new pc lolz ^_^
[Galaxy S III General] Germian:
I don't buy the 1080p screen. Samsung had to make a pentile 720p screen because they couldn't cramp more Pixels into it for the Plus version and now they come out with a 1080p one?n Nah, we'll get a 720p Super AMOLED Plus screen, but not more.
[Galaxy S III General] -A-P-M-:
I dont buy phone with 4.8' screen. I dont need a pad in a pocket, but a smart phone.. 4.2 is right size for a phone IMO, everything bigger makes phone harder to use - operate and carry.
[Galaxy S III General] AndyX™:
waiting SGS3 :D
[Galaxy S III General] .Arkham:
Rumour is that the GSIII will have an edge-to-edge bezel-less display, so not all of the extra size will contribute to the slightly bigger body. (See the mockup on the BGR link in an earlier post for an illustration. Here's another comparative mockup.)

Hopefully.
[Galaxy S III General] peachpuff:
I wish i wish i wish but i doubt it.
[Galaxy S III General] Poker gypsy:
That would be sweet!
[Galaxy S III General] X-Plosiv:
I just don't understand something, how are they planning on making 1080p screen? I thought note was 720p because they couldn't build nice 1080p screen.
[Galaxy S III General] .Arkham:
I doubt we'll see a 1080p screen on the handset, rather I think we'll see a non-PenTile 720p (or x800) HD SAMOLED +.

I wouldn't be surprised if the rumoured 11" 5250/5450-based tablet comes with a 1080p display, but who knows what that'll be... FOLED, SAMOLED +, LCD. 1280x800 would be good enough for me, as long as it was OLED and non-PenTile.

I think one or both of these mythical devices/platforms will probably sport the new Lotus Glass, though.
[Galaxy S III General] OmMeE:
Dittooo!!! :D
[Galaxy S III General] AlexVipXDA:
i hope it dont come out in a less time becouse i love idea that my sgs II is a top gamma for samsung XD
[Galaxy S III General] Intratech:
The way it works is that the technology and product may well have existed years ago but the companies have to recoop what they spend in R&D so they drip feed the technology to the consumers to ensure that they make as much money back from the tech they develop. This means in Samsung's case, Amoled screens followed by Samoled followed by Samoled plus followed by SamoledHD 720p which should theoretically mean the followup should be Samoled Plus HD 720p. There is nothing that says that technology cannot skip a generation though so Samsung could release a Samoled plus HD 1080p screen... but it wouldn't make financial sense unless they already have something else up their sleeve for the next generation that they want to rush out before someone else does.
[Galaxy S III General] geppo!:
1080p would be a huge improvement. Let's hope that it won't cost a fortune. i am then willing to be an early adopter!
[Galaxy S III General] peachpuff:
If samsung wants to sell more phones they have to up the ante, 1080p would blow every ones mind, bezel-less design too please :)
[Galaxy S III General] King Shady:
1080p would look terrible. Apps would look extremely pixelated on the screen, and everything would be small (fonts, app icons, etc).
[Galaxy S III General] tbong777:
SGS III photos and specs (if real) just took the shine off the Note for me....
[Galaxy S III General] hIdd3N-:
er no? why do you think android has a pixel density setting? just to prevent small font issues and stuff like that! and about apps looking pixelated.. that's what people said when honeycomb got released. it didn't happen. proper apps have proper UIs
[Galaxy S III General] Gero6:
Only BT 3.0! Why not the latest BT 4.0?
[Galaxy S III General] gb.sn:
Pixelated? with a 1080p the screen density would be so high you would not even be able to see pixelation. You seem to have the opposite idea of what a high density screen is.

Besides, the android OS is capable of changing its UI DPI, so small text is a non issue.
[Galaxy S III General] sangosnip69:
Fake. On the first site there is wrote "In MWC of barcelona in february" or something like that...
[Galaxy S III General] Archer:
Can someone explain to me how the thread was started 20th December 2011, there have been no edits to the 1st post, yet there's a photograph of a copy of Metro dated January 10th, 2012?
[Galaxy S III General] darkasecas:
what? O_o

it says right there on the bottom "Last edited by hIdd3N-; 26th January 2012 at 02:40 AM."
[Galaxy S III General] Archer:
Thanks for explaining that for me - I wondered what the hell was going on!

I don't see the "last edited" on his post for some reason. Ah well :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] X-Plosiv:
Thanks, I was thinking that as well, but was just curious. Anyway, this should be interesting, I'm getting my S2 in less than 10 days, and thought I was in dilemma whether to wait for S3 or buy S2, all speculations so far say it will be atleast 4.6", which is just too much for me.
[Galaxy S III General] fred_up:
It is not the size of the screen but the size of the handset that should be the limit for you. If they took away the buttons at the below the screen on the S2 and made them on screen buttons (like on the new nexus) then you would have the benefits of a larger screen but the same handset size. It would also mean that there would be less black banding when watching movies on the phone.
[Galaxy S III General] Astraport:
Samsung produces high quality devices now. I look forward to the new model.

I will make a gift to my wife.
[Galaxy S III General] assaf.bm:
I will make it a gift for myself :p
[Galaxy S III General] ultramag69:
And give the wife the old S2...:p:D
[Galaxy S III General] Intratech:
I'd root the wife, give her the S2 and get the S3 for myself.
[Galaxy S III General] MiG123:
Yea will 'root' the wife, if you know what I mean...
[Galaxy S III General] BuddyLee:
Google translate ... possibly april release if announced this month.

A company denying rumours! Say it isn't so!

/sarcasm
[Galaxy S III General] peachpuff:
Could this be the s3? http://pocketnow.com/android/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-first-benchmark

GT-9300

720p screen

Higher clocked mali-400 gpu
[Galaxy S III General] azeller09:
Next

Got an S2 now, I think this will be my next one! For sure!
[Galaxy S III General] Rytkonen:
My guess is SGS2 Plus.
[Galaxy S III General] Makejo_D:
I think samsung will surprise us with this terminal and I hope so. The SGS and was a good smartphone, the 2 was the best of 2011 and hope to continue that line and do not disenchanted.
[Galaxy S III General] Sleepycat3:
Don't see it as a worthy upgrade since the performance will be similar to the s2 based on that article.
[Galaxy S III General] tietherope:
Similar on a higher res screen, but that's just graphics. It may be a quad core processor.
[Galaxy S III General] thaako:
sgs ii plus

i also think its galaxy s ii plus, because its cannot be galaxy s iii, because of GPU, they wont use year old GPu for their flagship, they will use mali 604 of something else.

and if it would be sgs 3, there will be much powerful benchmark results.

same results are on galaxy s ii, :)

my opinion :P
[Galaxy S III General] uvaman:
If I remember there were rumors of GT I9300, GT I9500 and GT I9800 so this could

confirm that Samsung is working on Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus because of the reason they are going to show SGS3 before OI (that's sounds logical)

Another thing , Samsung confirmed that on April they are ejecting new phone

but it wont be SGS3 so this can confirm all above..

Not to mention that from cpu , gorilla glass 2 , new camera and other parts they starting to produce April, May ...

So all facts can tell us that phone could be introduced May, June
[Galaxy S III General] clax6:
You can guarantee what ever the spec is that there will be something that will let it down and we will all be moaning saying I can't believe they didn't have blah blah blah
[Galaxy S III General] madquack:
Hahaha no **** man, can't please everybody. Something will always bother the idiots..
[Galaxy S III General] Da_Mak:
All the fuss about this smartphone!

Good job, Samsung!

The phone is saled before its release.
[Galaxy S III General] yy1155:
look forward to

:)
[Galaxy S III General] bulldozer1210:
wow

the spec` is amazing~!!

but i worry about the price

spec = price ?? :(
[Galaxy S III General] snas281:
i think the Price in Germany will be 500€ -600€
[Galaxy S III General] Poker gypsy:
I read somewhere that it might be released around the summer? Because they want it to be the best phone on the market! I believe it will be the best!
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
Yes because idiots don't buy phones that don't offer an upgrade over their current ones. :rolleyes: If they put in a quad core A9 coupled with an overclocked mali-400, and the battery-life and performance isn't any better, I see no reason to upgrade.
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
Samsung's Galaxy S3 will go on sale in April - and will launch in the UK first as part of a tie-in with the Olympics this year.

The hi-tech handset is the follow-up to one of the most iconic Android smartphones and is liable to a heavyweight competitor for Apple's iPhones.

The launch details were revealed by ZDNet Korea, who confirmed them with the electronics giant's worldwide marketing agency.

The phone will have a quad-core Exynos processor - a chip similar to the ones in high-powered laptops and PCs.

It will also have a 4.8-inch HD display - bigger than its predecessor.

The details tie in with earlier leaks about the S3's release date. Samsung's official line is that it will be available in the first half of this year.

'The successor to the Galaxy S2 smartphone will be unveiled at a Samsung-hosted event in the first half of the year, close to commercial availability of the product,' said the Korean electronics giant in a statement.

WooHoo - UK get it first.... APRIL!

Sooo hope its true!
[Galaxy S III General] nikzDHD:
Wouldn't trust Daily Mail! Awful paper. But I guess we will get it as Samsung are major players at the Olympics with NFC so could see a relationship either way my money is ready been saving up since getting the S2! Can't wait for it whatever specs as long as it's got ICS and is the real successor to the S2 its mine :-D
[Galaxy S III General] zoomee:
Nice find but Daily mail!?! - wtf lol

However! - I found this article of theirs much more disturbing:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...advertising-companies--asking-permission.html
[Galaxy S III General] danielsf:
Just wondering, if it has got a 1.4-1.5 quad-core cortex A9 cpu, with a higher clocked mali-400 gpu (plus the expected 720p screen extra), will you consider getting it at all, and would it bother you?

Personally, I will be very cautious, I don't think it is a good enough performance boost to warrant spending all that money. But if it has a dual or even quad-core cortex A15 cpu (looking at the new TIOMAP5, the new A15 architecture even dual core clocked at 800mhz is one hell of an upgrade), I would buy it the first second I could :D
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
Yeah, I don't like daily mail either.

But it stated the information was from zdnet Korea & confirmed by Samsung's marketing agency, so thought it was worth a mention. :)
[Galaxy S III General] nikzDHD:
Based on your first assumptions I don 't think it'll warrant a purchase I'd stick with the S2 as it's still very powerful.

Like an S2+ version, like iP4 to iP4S not worth it. Screen would bother me but not as much as the screen on S2 is acceptable.

I'd long it out or try out something else.

It's the iP5 that's the issue, Samsung will want to compete with that now whether we get the real S3 before or after is the question.
[Galaxy S III General] clax6:
True but if your due an upgrade why not! One of my contracts ends this June and one in September so if I can't get a good deal in June I'll wait and get it cheaper in September. Woooo hooooo can't wait!
[Galaxy S III General] stratost:
I have the S2 and i think actually is a very powerfull option but i´m waiting the S3 and of course the new Porsche Cayenne.
[Galaxy S III General] BJ van Beethoven:
Samsung are denying the April release date:

[Galaxy S III General] jj03:
happy with the s2 so i'll give the s3 a miss...

The dude abides....
[Galaxy S III General] X-Plosiv:
I'm really curious how S3 will look at the end, both by design and by specifications. Because if it's not some BIG evolution, a lot of people won't see reason to swap from S2 to S3...

S1 ----> S2

S2 ----> S3 ?
[Galaxy S III General] tonybhoy:
probably the same mate
[Galaxy S III General] phamxp426:
Never thought the day would come that phones start to rival some pc's in specs.. Guess it's time to upgrade my rig again.
[Galaxy S III General] bawbaw24:
i've still got on year on may contract so ma S2 is safe, i'll get the S4 next year.
[Galaxy S III General] peachpuff:
There has to be, both in specs and design. Don't think android crowd would accept a galaxy s2S like the apple crowd did.
[Galaxy S III General] Scared27:
I have a feeling that the iPhone 5 is going to be a fairly impressive piece of technology so if Samsung do want to compete with that they will have to have a fair step up from the S2.
[Galaxy S III General] Kit:
People said the iphone 4s was going to be impressive as well :P how can they not even change the appearance on the device? no other company could get away with that ..
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
Maybe learn something about how these things work instead of blindly starting to upgrade. ARM != x86-64.
[Galaxy S III General] drpratik:
They follow some schedule where two consecutive phone keep same exterior but upgrade internals

Remember iPhone 3g and iPhone 3gs.just internal hardware bump but external same

They followed exact same with iPhone 4 and 4s
[Galaxy S III General] peachpuff:
If apple sticks to an 18 month cycle the s4 will be the iphone5's competitor.
[Galaxy S III General] F1_SS:
Not at all. The 3GS was an update to the 3G but was released earlier than a full upgrade was due. The 4S came about a year after the 4 and was suppose to be a complete update.
[Galaxy S III General] jaykresge:
Negative. The 3G was released in June 2008, and the 3Gs was released in June 2009. Full year difference. The 4 was released in June 2010 (another year), and the 4S in October 2011 as Apple stated that they wanted to move their annual iPhone refresh to the 4th quarter. The intent was to give them better 4th quarter sales compared to the holiday onslaught of Android handset, and it worked.

Rumours like always!!!:confused:
[Galaxy S III General] Areg8_6:
maybe...

this is preorder for s3
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
None of the specs are known, only guessed...

For all we know, it could be 2ghz quad, 12mp cam, 1080p 4.8inch screen & 2gb of ram, 5mm thick and weighing less than 100g. Lol

Doubt it, but you never know.

Samsung have kept their cards VERY close to their chest this time....

Cant wait for the final specs & announcement, i want a big press conference with lots of info & footage. :)

Exciting times.
[Galaxy S III General] espenfjo:
That one is fake.

Fake image, fake price, fake specs.

Do not give them your money :(
[Galaxy S III General] kova05:
Yes I see but preorder based on this rumour......

Product Description

Samsung Galaxy S III is rumored to be company's next flagship. It is said that it will run Android 4.0, under the hood will be a Samsung developed 1.8GHz quad-core CPU with 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal memory and a microSD slot aboard. The screen will be 4.65 inches of Super AMOLED III delight. Super AMOLED III, according to the tipster, is being developed specifically for this model.

..but I would love to be truth!! ;)
[Galaxy S III General] Xdenwarrior:
Samsung is testing both the Exynos 4412 and Exynos 5250 Galaxy S3. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Will see which route they choose: will it be more power or better battery life?

Only 60hours left till their official announcement! Props to Samsung for keeping so tight lipped on their flagships this year

GT-i9300 is Galaxy S2 Plus :)
[Galaxy S III General] Areg8_6:
I was just informing and sharing with all of you what i found.yeah It is really based on rumors ...
[Galaxy S III General] kR105!:
I hope they choose the 5250, if not i will stick with my S2 until a phone with A15 processor is released.

http://www.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s3-specs/

Rumored June release date. Damn.
[Galaxy S III General] jaykresge:
It's Eldar Murtazin. He's had "Finalized SGS3" posts and specs at least three different conflicting times now. And the bloggers (like the retard you linked to) conveniently eat it up. The guy is a fraud.
[Galaxy S III General] dorian95:
Completly agree, this guy is nothing with his dates. It's just rumors.
[Galaxy S III General] jaykresge:
His MO is the following:

-state that he has had hands on with a product and insider information that "such and such event" will take place on "such and such date."

-That date passes and nothing happens.

-Waits a week or two for cooldown, and then re-reports his initial report with changes and a new date.

-This happens over and over again until the thing that he predicted finally happens.

-Everyone eats it up and only looks at him as being right, while completely ignoring all of the botched predictions beforehand.

This would be akin to me going to the ignorant masses at 3AM and saying "within the next hour, the sun will shine!" over and over again until around 7AM (or so) I end up being right.
[Galaxy S III General] runedrune:
Yeah he even said we would get ICS on the 1st.
