Delivering
impressive processing power to allow more applications to be accessible
simultaneously, the Galaxy S III also features a brilliant 4.8-inch display
that extends to an ultra-thin bezel to maximize the viewing area. The expansive
display is also protected by Gorilla Glass 2.0 to guard against cracks and
scratches and provide enhanced touchscreen responsiveness.
The
Galaxy S III runs the Android 4.0 operating system (a.k.a., Ice Cream
Sandwich), bringing a redesigned user interface with enhanced multitasking,
notifications, full Web browsing experience, and more. You'll also enjoy
innovative, next-gen features such as Face Unlock, which uses facial
recognition to unlock the Galaxy S III, and Near Field Communications (NFC)
capabilities.
Going
beyond simple point-and-shoot photography, the 8-megapixel rear camera offers a
Burst Shot mode that captures still pictures at a rapid-fire pace at three
images per second with zero shutter lag, and its Best Shot feature recommends
the best picture to keep based on colors, lighting, and clarity. It also
records Full HD 1080p video with a backside illuminated sensor that improves
performance in low light environments--and you can even capture a photo while
shooting video.
Other
features include Wireless-N Wi-Fi connectivity with mobile hotspot capabilities
(enabling you to connect up to 10 devices to your Sprint 3G/4G mobile
broadband), Bluetooth 4.0 with stereo audio streaming, 16 GB internal storage,
memory expansion via optional microSD cards, and up to 9.2 hours of talk time.

With

wallet using Near Field Communication (NFC) to make safe purchases at more than
100,000 participating retailers--including Bloomingdales, Toys "R"

Google Wallet account within a week of activation of their Galaxy S III will
receive a $10 instant credit on their Google Wallet account and an additional

Simple, Instant Sharing
The
Galaxy S III has enhanced features that both you and your contacts will enjoy.
It's designed to make sharing easy and more direct so your friends and family
can experience every moment with you, regardless of your location.
Connect Through Touch: With S Beam, just place
two Galaxy S III phones back-to-back and you can transfer photos, videos,
documents, and more. In just three minutes you can successfully share a 1 GB
video file--it's fast, easy, and you don't even need a Wi-Fi or cellular
signal.
Send Pictures in a Flash: Thanks to Buddy Photo
Share, the Galaxy S III recognizes the faces of your friends, so it can share
photos with them right away. And with Share Shot, you can send photos to all
your party guests so everyone leaves with snapshots of the event.
Access Content on
Multiple Devices: Through AllShare Play, you can share files
with other devices and access those files on various devices, such as documents
or multimedia files between your Galaxy S III phone and a tablet, PC, or
television. With AllShare Group Cast on the Galaxy S III and a Wi-Fi network,
you can share and collaborate on documents, presentations or images in
real-time with multiple friends or co-workers without loading the file
separately.
Intelligent and Intuitive
Interaction
Smart
enough to detect your face, voice and motions, the Galaxy S III provides a more
convenient and natural way for you to interact so it fits seamlessly into your
daily routine.
Let Your Eyes Control the
Display: Thanks to the Smart Stay feature, the
screen display will remain bright as long as you're looking at the phone. Set
it down, and it dims instantly. Because the front-facing camera can identify
your eyes--while reading an e-book or browsing the web, for instance--it
recognizes how you are using your phone and provides a bright display
accordingly.
Tell Your Phone What to
Do: The S Voice feature enables the Galaxy S
III to actually listen and respond to your words: tell it to wake up, snooze,
take a photo, answer a call, send a text message, or play a favorite song.
Don't Miss a Message: If you've been away from
your phone, the Smart Alert feature will give you a vibrating nudge to let you
know about missed calls and messages.

The
Samsung Galaxy S III weighs 4.7 ounces and measures 5.4 x 2.8 x 0.3 inches. Its
2100 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 9.2 hours of talk time. It runs

Android Ice Cream
Sandwich Operating System
The
Galaxy S III runs the Android 4.0 operating system (dubbed Ice Cream Sandwich),
which adds powerful new ways of communicating and sharing while improving on
the best Android features: easy multitasking, rich notifications, customizable
home screens, resizable widgets, and more.
 |
The
new Ice Cream Sandwich interface features an onscreen navigation bar that
replaces the hardware buttons for Back, Home, and Menu found with older
Android-powered phones. And with Google+ integration, you can video chat with
groups of up to 9 friends as well as easily upload and share photos and videos.
Other features include:
Face Unlock
You
can now unlock your phone with just your face using the Face Unlock option. It
takes advantage of the front-facing camera and state-of-the-art facial
recognition technology to register a face during setup and then to recognize it
again when unlocking the device. Just hold your phone in front of your face to
unlock (or use a backup PIN).
And
the lock screen now lets you do more without unlocking. From the slide lock
screen, you can jump directly to the camera for a picture or pull down the
notifications window to check for messages. When listening to music, you can
even manage music tracks and see album art.
Home Screen Folders
Quickly
access related apps right from the home screen by organizing apps and shortcuts
into folders--just drag one app onto another to create a folder.
Multitasking
Multitasking
is even easier and more visual in Android 4.0. The Recent Apps button lets you
jump instantly from one task to another using the list in the System Bar. The
list pops up to show thumbnail images of apps used recently--tapping a
thumbnail switches to the app.
Voice Input
The
new voice engine in Android 4.0 lets you dictate the text you want, for as long
as you want, using the language you want. You can speak continuously for a
prolonged time, even pausing for intervals if needed, and dictate punctuation
to create correct sentences. As the voice input engine enters text, it
underlines possible dictation errors in gray. After dictating, you can tap the
underlined words to quickly replace them from a list of suggestions.
Near Field Communications
A
short-range wireless technology similar to Bluetooth, Near Field Communication
(or NFC) allows enabled devices to share information in close proximity. For
example, you can "touch" or "swipe" an NFC tag that might
be embedded in a poster, sticker, or advertisement, then act on the data read
from the tag.
You
can also utilize NFC for contactless payment via Google Wallet. Instead of
using cash or swiping a credit card, just touch your phone to an NFC payment
reader and have your purchase deducted automatically. Store virtual versions of
credit, loyalty and gift cards securely in Google Wallet, as well as coupons
and offers that can be redeemed when you make a payment. You can make payments
at hundreds thousands of locations nationwide where MasterCard PayPass is
accepted.
