If you like smartphones or technology in general, you may have heard of a major smartphone launch in the near future from Samsung. Its new flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3, looks set to catch the eye of many, taking the kidneys of the Galaxy S2 as the company’s most advanced Android smartphone. In this article, I’ll take a look at some other rumored specs of the device.
Camera
One of the phone’s features that we can expect to see a big improvement from is the camera. The Samsung Galaxy S2 has an 8 megapixel digital camera that is capable of producing excellent results. It can also capture 1080p video and is known as one of the best cameras on a smartphone. However, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is likely to feature a 12-megapixel camera, like the one seen on the recently launched Sony Xperia S, allowing it to compete or even outperform the cameras on rival companies’ phones. The main benefit of this will of course be the improved image quality provided by the finer pixel density, and you can also expect to see the standard package of included features such as autofocus, touch focus, image stabilization, and LED flash alongside. with high definition video. capture.
Operating system
The Android operating system has recently seen its latest update with the Ice Cream Sandwich version. This will replace the Gingerbread version currently on the Samsung Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus shows off the new software and it is believed that the Galaxy S3 will include it as well. In fact, due to the time of the phone launch, it is likely that it is optimized for this version of Android, and it will probably be more compatible with all its functions to a greater extent than the Galaxy S2 when a software update is carried out. .
Screen
The Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy Note were two of the first smartphones to have a higher screen resolution than the iPhone 4 and 4S with a retina display. For quite some time, this was crowned the highest resolution smartphone display. So Samsung already has the technology to include very high resolution displays in its future phones and the Samsung Galaxy S3 will likely benefit from this. There are several websites that claim that the screen on the Samsung Galaxy S3 will also be larger than that of the S2. We won’t know for sure until the phone launches, but it certainly wouldn’t be a surprise.
The Galaxy S3 has some big shoes to fill as the company’s flagship Android phone. The Galaxy S2 was one of the most popular phones last year, but thanks to the features that will likely make it into the Samsung Galaxy S3’s spec list, it should be very popular. The launch of this phone will be one of the biggest tech events of 2012.
