Samsung Galaxy S3: owner feedback and smartphone features

Nowadays, smartphones are already not seeing anyone. More recently, these gadgets were perceived by a large number of consumers, as something new, weird and inaccessible to the average Russian, but today without them it is very difficult to imagine their lives. These stylish and multifunctional devices help to pass the time on a trip or in long lines, and a large number of different possibilities makes them really irreplaceable.

South Korean company "Samsung" is one of the manufacturers of mobile equipment. A few years ago, mobile phones produced by the corporation from South Korea were not of good quality, quickly broke down and were extremely unreliable. For several years, the South Korean manufacturer has managed to make a significant leap in its development, increase production volumes and significantly improve the quality of its products. All this allowed the company "Samsung" for the first time in many years to become one of the leading manufacturers of smartphones.

One of the most popular lines of smartphones of the brand allowed the company to take a leading position in the global mobile industry. About one of the most successful gadgets of the South Korean production Samsung Galaxy-S3, reviews about which are more positive, this article will be discussed.

Package Contents

In most cases, the Samsung Galaxy-S3 package contains positive reviews. According to the owners of this stylish device, along with the smartphone user gets almost everything you need to work with him. The Samsung Galaxy-S3 package includes the following items:

• The phone itself;
• Charger to it;
• user guide;
• USB cable;
• Wire headphones;
• Lithium-ion battery.

Design

The appearance of the device is one of its significant drawbacks (according to the owners of the gadget). The smartphone looks too simple, its design is almost copied from previous models. Nevertheless, several color solutions, a slim body, which is well enough in the hand and relatively small overall dimensions of the device, create a rather pleasant impression from the gadget.

This model is being promoted under a rather interesting motto of the unity of nature and technology, so we can assume that the rounded shape of the device is somewhat similar to a stone near the sea coast. The picture covering the back of the device also enhances the impression. The case of the smartphone is presented in white, blue and black colors. All three versions look quite good and an obvious favorite among them is really difficult to choose.

Dimensions

As for the dimensions of the flagship smartphone in 2012, I must say that they are relatively small - 13.66 by 7.06 by 0.88 centimeters with a mass of 133 grams. As you can see, the device turned out to be quite thin, and a small mass of Samsung Galaxy-S3 also pleases. In the hand the device is quite good, easily placed in the pocket of the trousers, does not interfere with walking and takes not too much space.

Assembly and controls

To build the smartphone there are absolutely no complaints. About it Samsung Galaxy-S3 reviews of the owners are good. According to them, the plastic case is very well and tightly assembled. You can only find fault with the removable panel, which in the field of the camera is slightly pushed. With difficulty, the back cover is removed, since it is very rigidly fixed and pressed against the surface.

There is no loophole over the whole area of the apparatus: neither behind, nor along the sides. With the buttons, too, everything is excellent. And although for the materials the smartphone Samsung Galaxy-S3, reviews about which are more positive, was rated "satisfactory", for the build quality it can be safely put "excellent".

The location of the smartphone controls is typical for most products of the South Korean company Samsung. On the top panel of the device, the user will find a standard 3.5 mm jack that is designed specifically for headphones, a microUSB port, and a microphone. On the left side there is a volume rocker, while on the right there is a lock button for the display. I must say that they are very convenient. It is a pity that the phone does not have a special button designed specifically for photography. She would not be in the way.

Under the display of the device there is a single key, complemented by two "Function" and "Back" touch zones. A similar innovation can be seen in the smartphone Samsung Galaxy-S3 mini, reviews of which are even better than about the model described in this article. These two zones have backlighting, which, if desired, can be turned off completely or set the time of their operation.

Above the screen of this model, the consumer will be able to detect the silver lining of the speaker, proximity and light sensors , as well as the front camera. Many users of such a wonderful device are also pleased with the fact that a light indicator has finally appeared here. I must say that the diode shines brightly, it can notify you about missed calls, new messages, and also blinks when charging.

The back surface of the smartphone is smooth and smooth, like a water-polished pebble. At the top, the main camera protrudes slightly, which is edged with a silver frame. Between it and the body there is a small gap, where dust constantly gets. Nevertheless, everything is relatively easy to clean, so only the most demanding users of the gadget will be able to identify this deficiency. Also on the back panel there is a speaker hole and, of course, an LED flash, which is located directly next to the main camera.

Display

All of us gradually begin to get used to the very large diagonals of the display of mobile devices operating under the "Android" platform. An exception was not the Samsung Galaxy-S3. And although the diagonal of its screen is not 6, but "only" 4.8 inches, it obviously can not be called small. Nevertheless, such a display, if you take into account the Samsung Galaxy-S3 owners' reviews, fell to the liking of a lot of buyers.

The screen of the device is made using HD Super AMOLED technology, has a resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels, and also supports up to 10 simultaneous presses. There has been in this version of the smartphone from the South Korean manufacturer Samsung without PenTile, significantly affecting the clarity of the fonts. It will be noticed, most likely, only by particularly sharp-eyed users, while other consumers will leave such a fact without any attention, since it does not strike at all in the eyes.

With a density of 306 pixels per inch, you can not complain about the poor quality of the image. Deficiencies in the display are visible only from a close distance, when the smartphone is located at a distance of 10 cm from the eyes. The picture is bright, but the automatic adjustment does not work very well here. On the street, the brightness of the screen is almost not lost, although in this aspect the smartphone is slightly inferior to its counterparts in the person of Sony Xperia P.

Main and front cameras

Today, one of the main criteria for competition between modern gadgets is the quality of the camera. The best devices are shot at about the same level. Most users like to store captured images in their smartphones, so very rarely photos go beyond the internal memory or memory card device. The capabilities of most of the cameras of modern phones are so great that they allow you to unload the photos immediately into social networks, not to mention the highest quality of video recording.

The smartphone from Samsung is equipped with a main camera, whose resolution reaches 8 megapixels. The module also has an LED flash and, of course, automatic image focusing. The smartphone has a quick shooting function, when the camera takes pictures immediately after the touch of the shutter button has been touched. Unfortunately, this function does not always work correctly, so sometimes the images get blurry. The maximum resolution of photographs is 3264 by 2448 pixels. The main camera can also record video in Full HD resolution - 1920 by 1080 pixels.

Also, the Samsung Galaxy S3 phone, which will give you an additional idea about this device, is equipped with a front camera with a resolution of 1.9 megapixels and is designed for making video calls.

Samsung Galaxy S3: smartphone features

The device is running a quad-core Exynos-4412 processor - Samsung's own development. The frequency of this processor reaches the level of 1.4 GHz. As the graphics adapter here stands Mali-400MP. As for RAM, its volume is 1 GB, while there is enough internal memory - 16, 32 or 64 GB, depending on the configuration of the device. And, if necessary, the user can use a memory card microSD-format, the capacity of which should not exceed the mark of 32 GB.

operating system

The device from Samsung operates under the platform "Android 4.0.4", which is complemented by a proprietary shell called TouchWiz. The smartphone works pretty fast, and using it gives you only pleasure.

Communications

Among the communications in the device from the South Korean company "Samsung" is to highlight the fourth version of Bluetooth, USB connectors, and a Wi-Fi module, which is designed specifically for wireless Internet access. It is also worth highlighting the technology of NFC and S Beam.

Battery and battery life

In the smartphone from Samsung there is a lithium-ion battery, the capacity of which reaches the mark of 2100 mAh. The advantages of this battery include the fact that it is replaceable and, if desired, consumers can purchase a spare battery if there are concerns that one will not be convenient.

If you go into the settings of the Samsung Galaxy-S3, then you can turn on the power-saving mode, which will significantly extend the battery life of the smartphone. You can make the processor run at a lower frequency, lower the brightness of the display, or set another background.

The manufacturer claims that the battery life of the device is 9.5 hours during the conversation, as well as 290 hours in standby mode. In normal mode, with not too frequent use of the phone is able to work through the day. In this case, everything depends on the loads on the device.

Conclusion

Summarizing, I would like to say that the Samsung Galaxy-S3 reviews can be read more positive than negative. Pleases also the conversational speaker, which communicates the voice cleanly and clearly. As for the volume of the bell, it is above average, and the vibration is average in strength. If the materials of the case were slightly better, and the design is not so primitive, it would be safe to say that the Samsung company has turned out to be an ideal smartphone.

In any case, the product from the famous South Korean manufacturer is unlikely to disappoint consumers. The device turned out really high-quality, and it can be purchased at a price approximately equal to 15 thousand rubles. Of course, the cost is slightly overstated, but for this money the consumer will receive a really high-quality and reliable device that will long please him with his work.
