Aha! And the menu button works again for those with hardware buttons. That had really annoyed me.
If I were to get a tablet, it would have to be a Note 8.0 or 10.1 so I could take notes in class. I can't justify buying any other tablet when my phone does essentially the same things.
It's basically a launcher. Why not just release a launcher?
I honestly don't think Samsung needs to change the SIII design at all. It fits so well in the hand and is at about the upper limit of what I'd consider a comfortable screen size.
Samsung could totally just keep the 4.8" size and just increase the resolution to 1080p.
Sad thing is it has more RAM than the Xbox 360. I wonder how else it one-ups the big consoles.
What makes this any more sensible than any of Apple's lawsuits? iOS was in dire need of a functional notification system; what else was Apple supposed to do?
I wish these corporations would stop quarreling over minuscule bits of OS functionality and just focus on making good software. Android and iOS are so inherently different that the little UI traits they share are pretty negligible.
This is excellent IMO. But T-Mobile really has to push the benefits if they want consumers to catch on, because mainstream consumers will just see are phones that cost 3 times as much as they do on other carriers. Mainstream consumers probably don't even know you can get phones off-contract.
Well of course Play Store revenue is far behind the App Store. The App Store has 3 times the paid apps that the Play Store does. (Don't quote me on that.)
@Tuliomesa82 Actually, if you watch unboxings of the Droid DNA, it's much closer in overall size to the Galaxy SIII than it is to the Note II. They do it by making the bezels absolutely tiny and having less rounded corners than the SIII.
1) My SIII is all in one piece after 2+ months of normal use. No signs of faulty construction. Plastic may be cheap, but it sure isn't shoddy. Sure, dropping your naked SIII could be bad news. If that's your main concern spend your money elsewhere.
2) Color accuracy isn't a huge deal. No one does serious graphics work on a phone. Besides, AMOLED is a relatively new technology. It'll mature over time.
I bet the guy with the 3 feels really important in that photo.
... I thought the answer was going to be more sensible than that. That sounds like some BS excuse a company like Apple would use. Since when was the focus of Android simplicity over functionality?
I was tethered to Smart Keyboard Pro for a while, but because of lack of dev support and random freezes I pried myself away and went for SwiftKey 3. No regrets; SwiftKey 3 is crazy awesome. I could never get myself to like Swype...
Android is about choice, but the manufacturers are doing a really crappy job of giving consumers options. This article speaks the truth. I mean really, the only high end phone with a qwerty keyboard nowadays is the DROID 4, and that's aging.
A Galaxy S III Mini would be a great thing for a lot of people. Many of my friends say they don't want anything much bigger than a 4-inch device.
Good thing I've had ICS on my Atrix since April... Screw you Motorola.
Enthusiasts will just install custom software so it won't matter to them anyway.
Useless.
I don't see what Motorola's issue is. Samsung's never locked its bootloaders (to my knowledge) and they're doing just fine. What could Motorola possibly have against unlocked bootloaders for all?
I still like 4 inches; it's enough screen real estate for most things, and it still feels like a phone. On the other hand, I have big hands, so I'd have no problems wielding a 4.8 inch Galaxy S III. I wouldn't use a Note or Note II as a phone, though; that's crossing the line.
I still think 4 inches is the ideal screen size for a phone.
But that doesn't mean I don't want a Galaxy S III. :P
