Samsung galaxy s3 specs (unofficial)

samsung galaxy s3 specs

Samsung has confirmed that the new Galaxy S3 will be launched on May 3 at Earls Court, London - will it be your next Galaxy smartphone though?.

Of course, this is not the final design of the device at all, which is very obvious, with notes and tape all over the device. But, the leak, if true, does give us some useful insight into what Samsung is hoping to achieve with its next flagship device:

• It features Android 4.0 with a TouchWiz layering
• The prototype suggests that Samsung is looking to include a physical home button (as previous leaks have suggested)
• The above device features the Android 4.0-recommended virtual buttons
• The position of the virtual menu keys have been switched around, with the recent apps moving to the left and the back button shifting to the right
• The “Twonky Server” app features an additional virtual button (seen above), which might suggest that Samsung isn’t happy with in-app menu options

 Quad-core Exynos power: Amidst a slew of prototype leaks and benchmark app revelations, Samsung has finally decided to offer up something official about the upcoming Galaxy S3. Although some sources had pegged a dual-core chip as its powerplant, Samsung now says that the quad-core Exynos 4212 will drive the company’s next hero phone.
All that’s left to be revealed is the clock speed — 1.4GHz has been previously tipped, but we won’t know the whole truth until Samsung Mobile Unpacked next month.

The new 1.4GHz quad-core SoC is built on 32-nanometer architecture, and Samsung says the chipset will offer significant performance improvements over its previous-generation Exynos processor while consuming 20% less power. “The quad-core processor offers phenomenal multitasking abilities surpassing any single or dual application processor,” Samsung’s VP of System LSI marketing Taehoon Kim said. “Since all the cores must share a single battery, the power management and efficiency in the limited battery capacity are indispensable for mobile computing devices. Given the diverse functionalities consumers are demanding from their mobile devices today, the Exynos 4 Quad meets those high-performance needs while keeping power consumption very low.” Samsung’s full press release follows below.

Samsung Galaxy S3 operating system : Samsung is already releasing test versions of an Android 4.0 update for the Galaxy S 2, the S 3 is all but guaranteed to arrive with a version of the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich release. Samsung's TouchWiz user interface skin layered are expected.

Memory :  will be 1GB RAM, 16GB SD

S3 display : S3 would feature a 4.6" screen

S3 camera: expect to 12MP camera

Price: Obviously we don't have pricing details for an unannounced phone, so all we can do is speculate. Given the recent launch of the Galaxy Nexus, which sold for an enormous £520 around its launch and for the following few weeks and was available on contracts starting at £36, that's the high-end level we expect of the S 3.
