legion125 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Here's another rumor about about the GSlll. Screen,launch info and packing a quad-core. Quote: " it could be sporting a stunning 4.65-inch Super AMOLED Plus display with a 1280×720 resolution." http://www.technobuffalo.com/companies/samsung/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-could-feature-4-65-inch-super-amoled-plus-display/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legion125 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Agreed. I'm hoping this is just a mock up. Still a good phone, just looks the same as the other thousand slab phones on the market. I'm hoping they tweak it some more to make it different from the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert - Posted from my E4GT with ICS using Forum Runner yeah it has the edge to edge screen that was initially rumored to have long ago....the writer said that photo didn't look as futuristic as some of the others and seemed more real to him....to me that pic there looks more futuristic than anything shown before...looks like some kinda space age device there. lol sucks for me b/c i like Sense over touch wiz a bunch personally...

Sgt.

I will say though the Galaxy S series seems to have a following that is on par with Apple's iPhone users to an extent...die hard users that will never stray ever...

I was considering a stray to HTC after today's pics. However, that new Samsung pic has me drooling. I'm sure it's timing is no accident. There were probably millions who were thinking about HTC today. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's rumored that you can choose between touchwiz and AOSP. I agree, touchwiz is the worst part of Samsung phones. Sense is the only overlay that is worth its salt, but it was sucking system resources... new Sense is supposed to be better at not sucking resources, but. I feel like a dog chasing its tail. I like AOSP, end of story. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legion125 Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 it wouldn't be a new week without another GSlll rumor, which this thread is all about. If the May 22nd date is true, hopefully it will end all the speculation. It will be good to know what the final rendering/specs will be. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57411767-94/more-galaxy-s-iii-rumors-emerge-home-button-sticking-around/?tag=cnetRiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericdabbs Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Until Samsung starts improving their radios and GPS chips, I will stay away from Samsung and their phones. Also I am not a fan of the Exynos processor and would much rather have a TI OMAP or Qualcomm Snapdragon SOC chip anyday. The GSII and Nexus have reception issues.

But looking at the FCC numbers, the LTEVO isn't looking great with reception either. Hoping the numbers for the Galaxy 3 come out soon also.

Until people start to try out the HTC Evo 4G LTE phone in real world settings, I am going to give HTC a pass. Samsung however has been proven to have a bad track record so far consistently.

Samsung however has been proven to have a bad track record so far consistently. I personally use my E4GT side by side with my wife's EVO all the time. I don't see the big deal everyone makes about Sammy radios. I'm sorry, I just don't. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2 I have never had LOS with my E4GT since the fix. And I only had it twice before that. If I remember correctly, the issue was WiMax antenna related.
