Samsung S3 versus iPhone 4S... 80's Style!! - Galaxy S III General

Found this funny video from TechRadar on the youtubes. Searched the forums to see if it had already been posted but couldn't find anything.
Samsung Galaxy S3 - the lost advert from 1985!!
[Since I just found out I can't post outside links yet] - go to youtube and search Samsung S3 lost advert [/link fail]
Made me giggle! S3 kicks its ass!!!
Thank me if you like (I'm new here).

It is quite good the style is spot on and yes, I do remember the mid-eighties rather well...

SGS II signature logo

I've seen some users with an awesome Samsung Galaxy S II logo in their signature.
When I was looking for the users again, I couldn't find them.

I've tried googling it but I didn't find it.
It's grayish letters with "Samsung" in the first line and "Galaxy S II" in the second.
The only one I found was with everything in the same line.
He he, Keep searching. There are other cool walls too

A little help guys and girls :)

Hi all, you may have seen me about on these forums before. Basically I'm one of the Samsung Mobilers for the UK.
I've got a chance to go to MWC 2012 in Barcelona (which of course i could report back on all the latest mobile news), but i just need people to watch my video on the galaxy note and maybe give me some feedback? (it's a demo video for samsung really to show i'd be suitable to go to MWC) I'd be very grateful.
I'll also have plenty of other samsung reviews on my channel and are willing to take requests for videos/blogposts of any features on the following samsung gadgets: Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note, Galaxy Tab 10.1, Samsung 3D bluray player and Samsung Series 7 Chronos laptop.
Heres the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ope5cpwcBg
Many Thanks in advance
Stacey
I've posted a comment on your video to make it look good.
Thank you kind sir
first off, you need to get a better camera.
not criticizing, just giving an advice, people tend to skip a video if the quality is not good!
other then that, u got the skills....
Stop saying "you know..."
Point out that the Super AMOLED screen can be seen in full daylight, even with polarizing sunglasses on (unlike a certain fruit named devices)
Might be worth trawling through this thread for GNote ideas:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1407787
And I'd advise scripting your video so you don't get those pauses when you're thinking about what's next.
Might also be worth recording each "feature" as a separate chunk of video then stitching it together.
That way you can "retake" any bits you don't like without having to re-do the whole video...
One like, one positive comment :thumbup:

Couldn't agree with you more
A couple of points.
* Lighting is very important, I don't like reviews where I can't see the device clearly.
* It's a big device, show how it would look talking with it, and where would you carry it.
* Edit your videos as recommended before.
Try to answer potential questions from the device.

Cheap knock-off phones?

Hello members, so i was reading about the GooPhone that is supposedly patented with the Iphone 5 design in China. They are apparently ready to sue apple once the phone is released.
Anyway it led me to a site that has android/windows/blackberry devices.
Now they seem legit, have looked around and seen that there are some reviews, only negative comments are about the long shipping.
My question is, has anyone here ever ordered from this site.
http://www.fastcardtech.com/
I was interested in maybe ordering a device playing with it for a while, then maybe sending to a dev to see if the components would match that of its US counterpart to see if custom ROMS would be able to be installed.
So please read, look, get interested, and chat about the site!!!!

If she really doesn't do anything on it then I would get out for her because 512mb of ram is the same a an IPhone which has fast enough speed for every day tasks not sure if she will need more than 4GB of space but there is a microsd slot up to 32GB so that might help 1GHz processor is beyond overkill for what you said she does so sure why not!

After some careful research, and some digging into chinese forums. These phones are complete fakes.
It seems that they may not ever make it stateside. They also have IMEI problems, so they may work for a week, but after that they seem to start having disconnect problems. Also looks like the GPS will not work, being that it is based in China satelittes will not transmit here.
I almost bought one today, like 3 times, but after more and more digging, I have decided not too.
This seems to be a complete scam. There are a bunch of sites claiming fraudulent accounts among the site as well.
What seemed so nice quickly slips away.

Ouch... Buzzkill... Guess I should've done a little more digging before posting those sites. BTW, do you have any reference links?
I first went on www.fastcardtech.com/forums and was reading the results of users. Alot sounded pretty upset. Although there are not very many replies, there are some feedback.
I asked a question about a device, and then asked the same question again 2days later, and got a different answer. I will do it again, and get a screen shot so that I can show you all. There was another forum in XDA about the site, there are some saying its legit, others not so much.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561534
Will post back with more.
I am still considering ordering one, just havent decided yet. I know as soon as I do that they will announce the Note 2 for Tmobile.
I have found a few more credible sites, there is,
www.koobay.com
www.exportandgo.com
Upon searching the fastcardtech site brands devices to companies that dont actually have these devices. For instance, I have found the HDC (china phone maker) and they list their products, then you reference the FTC site and there are thousand of HDC branded devices that are not actually HDC brand!
I've seen an apple S4 by them. The screen res is terrible.it had virtually no memory. Build was terrible. Do not waste your money. I'm sure no rom with work on them.

any of these knockoffs will not work with any of the regular roms, you would have to make a rom for that knock off device model.. as you can imagine without a lot of people owning them your chances of getting a good rom is slim.

Beats Audio or just Beats?

Have a look on the back of your phone.
Is the word Audio missing after Beats?

Decent review.
No gaps, the trim round the ports looks clean cut, too, and the word Audio is missing.
Wonder how many went through QC before they noticed.
Makes you wonder what else QC might have missed.

On the back of the HTC One devices there is normally a logo at the bottom that says "Beats Audio". However, some devices only have "Beats" written.
Hence the discussion. Perhaps concern about QC?

beats audio is a brand and beats audio is the trademark of that brand.
Some HTC One phones only have the word beats on the back of the case; the word audio and the ™ symbol is missing.

^^made me :laugh: out loud in my office at work!! Thank you for making my ****ty boring work day a little better lol!
in regards to OP, it's interesting. I wonder whether or not it's either a change in the development timeline that perhaps the earlier phones had beats audio or visa versa. Or perhaps a sign of 2 different factories producing slightly different handsets?
I'd be interested to know if there was any correlation between the handsets with beats/beats audio on to the ones with the gaps/no gaps, as that could give some idea on if there is an issue in production in one particular factory making the phone. Or if it's to do with the release date.....
For those I have lost with this semi-rambling post.....Example;-
All the phones with beats audio on are the ones that also have the gaps in the build and are all the earlier released phones.....
or
All the phones with beats audio on are the ones that also have the gaps in the build and although produced at different times since the phones release they were all made by the same factory.

I am seriously wondering whats going on @ HTC.
how could they let something like this slip by?
I assume they have a slightly lower QC level due to the expense of the case itself? Does not justify it... but.
That would be my phone in the video (with my hands and voice of course ;p) and yeah no audio on the bottom just the beats portion of it.
Phone is perfect apart from that, but since it's nothing huge I will be keeping it as I can't see many of them, special edition
Let me know if I am the only One (it was too easy)

I've heard of two other phones without the 'audio' bit but there must have been fair a few unibodies go through the
screen print machine before the person watching the screen print process noticed that the silver ink had run out !
Great review by the way. Better than having a nasal American voice chewing up our language
