You’ll see it has dimensions of 136.6 x 70.6 x 8.6mm and a 4.8 inch HD Super AMOLED screen. A screen the fans say is just astonishing in color and performance. Actually it looks like a small pad. Just the screen alone is worth buying the Galaxy S III.

The Galaxy S III has some expert handling though-smooth and fits the palm just nicely. The company has refurbished it’s Touchwiz overlay technology for this new smartphone and obviously went out of their way to simplify things. When you’ll start to use the device you’ll find many new features designed for being easy on the eyes as well as easy on the fingers:

It will also feature Bluetooth 4.0, GPS with Glonass reception, Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, NFC, microUSB. By removing the back, case you will have access to the 2,100 mAh battery, microSIM and microSD slots.

Even if now there are a lot of phones that can compete with Samsung Galaxy S III(like HTC One X or iPhone 4S), the Korean company has now the lead and the benchmarks are on their side. The competitors have to rethink a little their strategies and maybe do what Nokia is doing, not step in this multi-core processor game, and optimize their OS.
