samsung introduces the galaxy s iii, the smartphone designed for humans and inspired by nature
may 4, 2012
effortlessly smart and intuitively simple, samsung galaxy s iii reveals a new concept of smartphone
london, uk—may 4, 2012—samsung electronics co., ltd, a global leader in digital media and digital convergence technologies, announced today the third generation galaxy s, the galaxy s iii. designed for humans and inspired by nature, the galaxy s iii is a smartphone that recognizes your voice, understands your intention, and lets you share a moment instantly and easily.
this sleek and innovative smartphone has the enhanced intelligence to make everyday life easier. with samsung galaxy s iii, you can view the content like never before on the device’s 4.8 inch hd super amoled display. an 8mp camera and a 1.9mp front camera offer users a variety of intelligent camera features and face recognition related options that ensure all moments are captured easily and instantly. samsung galaxy s iii is powered by android™ 4.0, ice cream sandwich, with greatly enhanced usability and practicality to make life easier. packed with intuitive technology, the galaxy s iii delivers a uniquely personalized mobile experience that refuses to be compromised.
“with the galaxy s iii, samsung has maximized the consumer benefits by integrating superior hardware with enhanced smartphone usability,” said jk shin, president and head of it & mobile communications division at samsung. “designed to be both effortlessly smart and intuitively simple, the galaxy s iii has been created with our human needs and capabilities in mind. what makes me most proud is that it enables one of the most seamless, natural and human-centric mobile experiences, opening up a new horizon that allows you to live a life extraordinary.”
introducing natural interaction
the galaxy s iii enhances the interaction experience between the device and user. smart enough to detect your face, voice and motions, the galaxy s iii adapts to the individual user to provide a more convenient and natural experience. with the innovative ‘smart stay’ feature, the galaxy s iii recognizes how you are using your phone – reading an e-book or browsing the web for instance – by having the front camera identify your eyes; the phone maintains a bright display for continued viewing pleasure.
the galaxy s iii features ‘s voice,’ the advanced natural language user interface, to listen and respond to your words. in addition to allowing information search and basic device-user communication, s voice presents powerful functions in regards to device control and commands. when your phone alarm goes off but you need a little extra rest, just tell the galaxy s iii “snooze.” you can also use s voice to play your favorite songs, turn the volume up or down, send text messages and emails, organize your schedules, or automatically launch the camera and capture a photo.
in addition to recognizing your face and voice, the galaxy s iii understands your motions to offer maximized usability. if you are messaging someone but decide to call them instead, simply lift your phone to your ear and ‘direct call’ will dial their number. with ‘smart alert,’ the galaxy s iii will also save you from trouble by catching any missed messages or calls; your phone will vibrate to notify missed statuses when picked up after being idle.
easy and instant sharing
the samsung galaxy s iii is more than a personal device that can be enjoyed by one user - it wants you to share and experience smartphone benefits with family and friends, regardless of where you are. with the new ‘s beam,’ the galaxy s iii expands upon android™ beam™, allowing a 1gb movie file to be shared within three minutes and a 10mb music file within two seconds by simply touching another galaxy s iii phone, even without a wi-fi or cellular signal. the ‘buddy photo share’ function also allows photos to be easily and simultaneously shared with all your friends pictured in an image directly from the camera or the photo gallery.
with ‘allshare cast’, users can wirelessly connect their galaxy s iii to their television to immediately transfer smartphone content onto a larger display. ‘allshare play’ can be also used to instantly share any forms of files between galaxy s iii and your tablet, pc, and televisions regardless of the distance between the devices. under allshare play is also the ‘group cast’ feature that allows you to share your screen among multiple friends on the same wi-fi network; you can make comments and draw changes at the same time with your co-workers, witnessing real-time sharing on your individual device.
human-centric design with uncompromised performance
the galaxy s iii not only presents features with enhanced usability, but also provides an ergonomic and comfortable experience through its human-centric design. its comfortable grip, gentle curves, and organic form deliver a rich human-centric feel and design. inspired by nature, its design concept is the flow and movement of nature. the elements of wind, water and light are all evoked in the physical construct of the galaxy s iii. in its essence, the minimal organic design identity is reflected in the smooth and non-linear lines of the device. available in pebble blue and marble white at launch, samsung will introduce a variety of additional color options.
with a 4.8” hd super amoled display, the galaxy s iii offers a large and vivid viewing experience. samsung mobile’s heritage super amoled display even enhances to hd and 16:9 wider viewing angles. to ensure faster content sharing and connectivity, the galaxy s iii offers wi-fi channel bonding which doubles the wi-fi bandwidth.
the galaxy s iii also sports a range of additional features that boost performance and the overall user experience in entirely new ways. it introduces ‘pop up play,’ a feature that allows you to play a video anywhere on your screen while simultaneously running other tasks, eliminating the need to close and restart videos when checking new emails or surfing the web. its 8mp camera features a zero-lag shutter speed that lets you capture moving objects easily without delay – the image you see is the picture you take. with the ‘burst shot’ function that instantly captures twenty continuous shots, and the ‘best photo’ feature that selects the best of eight photographs for you, the galaxy s iii ensures users a more enhanced and memorable camera experience. hd video can be recorded even with the 1.9mp front-facing camera, which you can use to capture a video of yourself. improved backside illumination further helps to eliminate blur in photos that result from shaking, even under low lights.
mobile payment is also accessible with the device through advanced near field communication (nfc) technology. the gaming experience is enhanced through ‘game hub,’ providing access to numerous social games, while video hub brings users high quality tv and movies. furthermore, samsung music hub will offer a personal music streaming service. game hub, video hub and music hub will be introduced in select countries initially and soon rolled out to global markets.
the samsung galaxy s iii will be available from the end of may in europe before rolling out to other markets globally.

Wasn´t the Nexus S close to us$800? After the insane success of the GS2 it wouldn´t surprise me at all if this phone would cost something like us$850...which would probably drive me towards the HTC One X or a Skyrocket HD LTE.
I seen 499£ an usually the most phones sell for from t mobile is lime 500$? Right

Shame it has no 802.11ac wireless support, with routers now coming out that have this new wireless technology, next gen phones like the S3 should support it.

why ?
is 450 mbps not fast enough ? i highly doubt you have that speed on your internet connection.
anyways even 450 mbps is not the actual speed, on my sgs2 i get around ~30 mbit and that is fine, i do have a 100 mbit internet connection, but 30 is fine for the phone.

Hello friends,
Someone can me suggest an smart watch android wear that has 3 functions together: 1 - heart rate, 2 - blood pressure and 3 - gps? Anybody know some smart watch with these 3 functions?
I want track during fitness my heart rate and blood pressure too, with the gps function i want install a app like runkeeper or strava in the smart watch, and track distance (with maps) together the other functions.
in my research I found only these:
model with heart rate and blood pressure, apparently without gps (in some sites, around of $89):
http://www.thlmobilestore.com/thl-h-one-health-watch.html
With the same functions of heart rate and blood pressure, i found a smart watch called>A9S for just $35, apparently with the same functions of the THL h one.
I see this model interesting No1 D6 for $89. this watch have heart rate and gps but do not have blood pressure measurement.
If the ad about A9S as correct, is the better cost X benefit, but i want the gps too, to track with apps like strava or others...
Because i like run and i dont like carry cellphone, i want run just with a smart watch with these 3 functions.
Someone can say if there is any model with this 3 functions together, to do what i describe above?
Regards
Without a pressure cuff, there's no way it can monitor blood pressure.
So it seems that now, 7 years after the Xperia Play, that gaming phones are starting to really become a thing. Razer released a "gaming" phone with a super fast display. Motorola released a gamepad mod for the Z line. There have also been a couple others like the Nubia Red Magic and Xiaomi Black Shark, but only the Black Shark has attempted to add any gaming controls to a "gaming" phone, and it was basic at best. Now Asus is jumping into the game and they have the most powerful phone yet!

But not only are the specs high, but it's also set to have a slew of accessories. The main one being a GameVice to give it full gamepad controls. There's a TV mirroring accessory and a desktop dock. There's also a sort of dual-screen handheld accessory, but that will require developer support to take off. There's even a fan cooler accessory. Plus the phone itself has a couple of touch buttons on the edges that can be mapped to work as virtual buttons. All things considered, this looks like the most interesting of the "gaming" phones thus far and potentially a spiritual successor for the Xperia Play, even if the gamepad isn't integrated.

Im really hype for this one. ROG phone will be my next gaming device after Nokia N-Gage QD and Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY
ok nice and all but still lacks integrated gamepad if i have to carry 2 devices anyway i´ll take my phone and my 3ds..sorry asus, nice try
I see all the other accessories, but the only one I want is the controller. Not the two screens, or the dock, or the tv mirroring...but that controller that grips from the sides horizontally. It's awesome!!!
I agree with your assessment OP, this was the first phone I really saw as a successor to the xperia play. Such a shame it has taken this long.
The thing about the GameVice gamepad is that it's been around for awhile for both iPhone and Galaxy phones. This is the first "gaming" phone to use it, but not the first phone. So if that's all you're looking for, you could get an older model for a much more popular (and at this point, affordable) phone.
While I would love to see another integrated gamepad, I don't feel like that's going to realistically happen. I think some sort of accessory dock or case will be the way it goes. As long as the gamepad portion is easily portable and pocketable, I'm okay with it.
EDIT:
Unless you live in China where Snail still releases gaming phones with gamepads from iReadyGo. There's another that came out last year:

Hmm. All I had seen prior was iphone lightning port connected controllers. Thanks for putting that on my radar!
While shopping around it appeared that in searching for a one-fits-all solution there weren't hardwired controllers for android.
I was selected as an OPPO Product Ambassador and received the OPPO Find X5 Pro Ceramic White!
Summary
The OPPO Find X5 Pro is a smartphone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Android 12.
The back is ceramic, giving it a smooth and beautiful appearance.
It is equipped with OPPO's first proprietary imaging NPU "MariSilicon X", which is said to have improved night photography performance.
This review is done with version CPH2305_11_A.16, 12GB+256GB.
Pros:
AMOLED with 120Hz refresh rate support
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 + LPDDR5 + UFS 3.1
Fast night shot
5000mAh battery with 80W support
50W wireless charging support
eSIM support
IP68 waterproof and dustproof
Cons:
Slightly heavy
Back tends to get hot when gaming
Not so good cost performance
Can't change camera while shooting video

5G NSA: n1/n3/n5/n7/n8/n20/n28/n38/n40/n41/n66(70MHz)/n77/n78/n79
I entered "MariO" for the nickname of MariSilicon X, and it became official!
The one I received is the global version (for Malaysia).
Unfortunately, included charger has USB Type-A port only and support the proprietary SuperVOOC.
Variable PPS is becoming more widespread, and I think it is time to make it compatible with USB Type-C / USB PD like OnePlus did it on OnePlus 8T....
Instructions and warranty card are also included.
A translucent protective case is also included, and the screen side has four protruding corners to prevent the screen from hitting the ground when turned over.
Smooth and brilliant AMOLED display
The OPPO Find X5 Pro features a 6.7-inch QHD+ resolution AMOLED display.
It is bright enough to be used outdoors, and is vivid enough that you don't need to modify color settings.
It is an edge display and the protective film is applied from the beginning.
Battery consumption is sufficient for a full day of use even when using 120Hz refresh rate since it uses LTPO and dynamic refresh rate, and thanks to fast charging, it can be recharged quickly even if it runs low.
The panel is a diamond array made by Samsung.
The OPPO Find X5 Pro is Widevine L1 and it allows streaming in HD quality on Amazon Prime Video (beta) and others.
Beautiful back with ceramic
The back of the OPPO Find X5 Pro is made of ceramic, which is different from glass in terms of smoothness and beauty.
The OPPO Find X3 has a nice design, but the OPPO Find X5 Pro seems even more refined.
It's fingerprints resistant, so the beauty of the phone is maintained even after continued use.
Build quality is great.
The area around the camera is smoothly raised, giving it a unique design.
I put a protective film on it to take good care of it
High speed shooting even in night scenes
The OPPO Find X5 Pro is equipped with a triple camera: 50MP (SONY IMX766) + 50MP (ultra-wide SONY IMX766) + 13MP (telephoto Samsung s5k3m5).
The photos taken are saved here.
The OPPO Find X5 Pro's Night shot mode allows you to take bright pictures even in areas that are nearly pitch-black to the naked eye.
By selecting "movie" mode from "MORE" menu, you can shoot HDR movies and LOG movies with 3840 x 1644 resolution.
This mode allows you to shoot more vivid movies than the normal movie mode.
The effect of MariSilicon X is easily felt in the "time it takes to process a night scene shot," which with the OPPO Find X3 takes about 8 seconds, but with the OPPO Find X5 Pro, the process is completed in about 4 seconds.
It is easy to take a series of pictures, and it is also easy to shorten the time to fix and hold the camera.
I was able to finish shooting quickly even while moving in a dark aisle.
The OPPO Find X5 Pro's photo is brighter and has less noise in low-light environments where there is only the light of the phone's screen.
Although beautiful enough in backlit conditions, the townscape in the background was whitish.
It's a matter of which is more important, so I think that's OK.
It can zoom optically up to 2x and digitally up to 20x with the hybrid zoom.
Although it loses out to optical zoom, it is still able to capture even the smallest of details, such as the whiskers of a cat in a dark place.
When zooming, an overall view is displayed in the upper left corner, making it easy to see where you are zooming.
I tried shooting at 1x, 0.6x, and 2x respectively.
The vividness is a little better at 1x, but there is not much difference, and the image can be taken beautifully in any mode.
Unfortunately, it was cloudy, but the memories will remain vivid.
Even in a dark place, the 2x zoom can capture relatively beautiful images, and the light of the Piranha Plant is captured without any white out of the pattern.
The top is normal and the bottom is ultra-wide angle, and distortion in ultra-wide is minimal.
The XPan mode, which recreates the panoramic photos of Hasselblad's film camera days, allows users to take photos with an aspect ratio of 65:21.
Video stabilization is also quite good, and shaking is not noticeable even when shooting while walking on bumpy roads.
However, once you start shooting, you cannot change the camera lens.
For example, it is not possible to start shooting at 2x zoom and then seamlessly change to 1x.
Supports wired 80W and wireless 50W charging
The OPPO Find X5 Pro supports wired charging, including 80W SuperVOOC and USB PD 9V/2A, as well as 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging and 10W reverse wireless charging.
With 80W SuperVOOC charging, the battery could charge from 10% to 100% in 41 minutes, and the temperature only rose to a maximum of 34°C.
It's great since it can be recharged immediately even if you forget to charge it at night.
Wireless Charging is also fast and can be charged with the cover on.
It is quiet and can be set to silent while sleeping.
It's easy to charge quickly just by putting it down.
Video output supported USB 3.1 Gen 1 port
As befits a flagship, the OPPO Find X5 Pro features a USB Type-C port with USB 3.1 Gen 1.
Video and audio output in DisplayPort Alt Mode is also available for display mirroring.
This is useful when you want to enjoy games / videos on a large screen without a lag.
Stereo speakers
The OPPO Find X5 Pro has stereo speakers, with the upper part doubling as a speaker for calls.
Dolby Atmos is supported and cannot be turned off for the speakers.
Both bass and treble were nicely balanced and sounded beautifully, and there was no scuffling.
Smaller treble choruses, for example, were sometimes a bit hard to hear.
Compared to the Pixel 6 Pro, it seemed to emphasize vocals in particular.
The frequency response measured with the miniDSP UMIK-1 from a distance of about 30 cm, surrounded by sound-absorbing mats, is shown below.
eSIM gives you more choices of carriers
In addition to dual nano SIM, eSIM can also be used.
Unfortunately, you can only use either nano SIM + nano SIM or nano SIM + eSIM instead of triple SIM, but since eSIM is now available from various other carriers, it's good to have more options.
Long press of power button activates Google Assistant
The OPPO Find X5 Pro has a power button on the right side that can be pressed and held to activate Google Assistant.
You can also turn it off in the settings... but in that case, a long press does not bring up the power menu, and you have to press and hold on the power button and the volume button at the same time to bring up the power menu.
I would like to be able to get the power menu with a long press of the power button only, like the Pixel 6 Pro, etc.
The volume buttons are located on the left side.
Play the highest quality Genshin at an average of 54.5 FPS
The OPPO Find X5 Pro is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which seems to be tuned a bit more modestly to reduce heat generation during gaming.
In the 3DMark Wild Life Stress Test, the score was 9770, with a temperature increase from 21°C to 42°C (21°C increase) and 24-73 FPS.
PCMark Work 3.0, which measures performance in everyday use such as document manipulation, scored 14357.
In Geekbench 5, it scores single-core 981 and multi-core 3538.
Even the version with the package name disguised as Genshin scores single-core 982 and multi-core 3535, so I think they aren't doing so-called benchmark boosting not like Samsung and Xiaomi.
Great!
Storage has relatively high write performance.
The OPPO Find X5 Pro includes a frame rate stabilizer called AI Frame Rate Stabilizer, which is a feature that stabilizes the frame rate and
Genshin Impact
LOLM
MOBILE LEGEND
FREE FIRE
PUBG
SUBWAY SURFERS
CODM
are supported.
However, there is no such thing in the game menu, and "Pro Gamer mode" (available for all games) can only be selected in the performance settings.
It may be automatically turned on for supported games.
There is also an option to overlay FPS and CPU/GPU utilization.
When measured with WeTest PerfDog running Genshin Impact at the highest quality and 60FPS setting, the average FPS was 54.5 FPS.
While Snapdragon 8 Gen 1-powered devices tend to generate a lot of heat, causing the average FPS to drop, this result was higher than the 51FPS of Redmi K50G, a gaming smartphone.
The battery temperature rose to a maximum of about 39.5°C, which is not so high, but the heat was transferred to the back of the device and it felt a little hot.
Multifunctional OS
ColorOS 12.1, which OPPO Find X5 Pro comes equipped with, has a variety of useful features.
Gesture operations are quite abundant, and you can set up gestures such as double-tapping to turn on the screen, writing letters such as O and V to launch the camera, etc., and sliding up, down, left, and right to launch your favorite apps.
Since you can quickly launch your favorite apps from when the screen is off, it can be quite convenient if you customize it to your liking.
There is also a feature called Air Gestures that allows users to scroll without touching the screen.
However, it is only supported by some apps such as YouTube, and it is quite difficult to operate. It seems to be useful if you can master it...
The keyboard position can also be moved up slightly so as not to interfere with gesture operations.
It's a small thing, but it greatly improves convenience.
Memory (RAM) expansion is also available (3 to 7 GB).
It has a vibration feature called O-HAPTICS, which allows the user to fine-tune the intensity and feel of the vibrations.
The Personalization menu allows fine-tuning of AODs, themes, animations, etc.
You can change the font without root to suit your taste and mood.
There are a lot of fonts and I'm distributing a custom font Mejiro for Japanese, too.
The Android 12 base provides a privacy dashboard and camera/mic toggle, which is good for those concerned about privacy.
Apps can be cloned and locked, and even apps that only allow one account to be used can be operated with multiple accounts.
O Relax prepares you for time without using your phone by playing relaxing music.
Bootloader is not unlockable
Since this is xda, I would have to mention bootloader unlocking as well.
Unfortunately, the OPPO Find X5 Pro doesn't support unlocking bootloader for now.
To unlock bootloader of OPPO phone, we need to use "Deep Testing" apk to request approval from OPPO, but there's no such apk for Find X5 Pro yet and may not be released.
I wish they would improve it so that it can be unlocked at any time like OnePlus (also comply with the GPL)!
ConclusionPros:
AMOLED with 120Hz refresh rate support
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 + LPDDR5 + UFS 3.1
Fast night shot
5000mAh battery with 80W support
50W wireless charging support
eSIM support
IP68 waterproof and dustproof
Cons:
Slightly heavy
Back tends to get hot when gaming
Not so good cost performance
Can't change camera while shooting video
OPPO Find X5 Pro is quite beautiful on the outside thanks to its ceramic body, and it has a unique design with a smoothly raised camera area.
Taking advantage of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 performance, Genshin runs smoothly at an average of 54 FPS, and night shots are quick thanks to the MariSilicon X.
However, the global version is quite expensive (at the level that you could buy a foldable OPPO Find N), so in terms of cost performance, it is hard to beat the competition.
It is good because it has a high-end feel that is commensurate with the price, but it would be easier to pick up if it were cheaper.
@AndroPlus Great Job Ryo seriously well reviewed Impressed with each and every details of this review, Specially as a photographer I enjoyed the photography in all lighting conditions. Its Dope. Wish I could have this power to mare this much detailed threads.
Very detailed review, thanks!
I wonder if you caught the limitation with the camera when filming in 4k60? It doesn't let you switch between the rear lenses.
Is this something you could ask oppo about?

Yes, I confirmed the limitation now...
I'll ask them.
What's the over-sharpening like? I mostly love the photos from my Find X3 Pro - the colors are better than the Huawei P40 I had before - but the over-sharpening is too intense. I wish it could be turned down. For example, any photos black wires in them look nasty with over-sharpened halos around the wires. Any improvement in the X5?

I tried to shoot with Find X3 and X5 Pro. X5 Pro is slightly improved, but not perfect...
