Samsung Galaxy S 3 Specs

'Software not hardware is the focus with the Galaxy S III'

 

The Galaxy S III has an impressive 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display. It's 16% larger than the Galaxy S II and a bit heavier at 133g, but it packs a lot more power (the quad-core processor is over 60% faster).

 

The camera features a 'burst mode' similar to the HTC One series to make sure you don't miss that key shot. SmartStay recongises when you are looking at the screen and prevents the phone going into power saving mode, while Social Tag enables quick photo sharing via social media.
