Home button is awkward to press

Bland design
Auto-brightness is too jumpy
And low
What we like
Battery life S Voice still useless Subjective design
The Galaxy S3's screen is too dim
And Samsung's Siri competitor
S Voice
Disappointed us. You can only roam at 3G speeds outside of U.S. Cellular's home network
Disappointed. Until Sprint's LTE launch
Data speeds drag on the carrier's 3G network
Mediocre battery life
Can't edit home screen dock
Subjective design
S Voice not optimised
Disappointed us
And Samsung's S Voice Siri competitor disappointed
4G heavily impacts battery life. No HDMI port
No HDMI port. Photo quality is a small step back from the GS2
It's fast. It's slim. It's got Android 4.0. It's hard not to recommend. The GSIII won't blow your mind or anything, but if you haven't upgraded in a while, and you can stand all the plastic, it's hard to go wrong here.The camera is easily the GSIIIs be...
Abstract: The greatest surprise was that in Galaxy S3 Samsung decided to employ the Sony matrix similar to that used in Apple iPhone 4s (it least there is a serious resemblance, while the key is that Sony manufactured this matrix). It is difficult to find log...

Pumped with high-performing hardware and creative software features, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is an excellent, top-end phone that's neck and neck with the HTC One X.
Comfortable to hold, Amazing rear camera, Runs Android 4.0 (ICS), microSD card slot, Fun voice and motion features, Removable battery, Widely available, 2GB RAM
Difficult homescreen customization, Poor battery life, Recent Apps button menu hard to find, Most new features turned off by default, S-Voice is limited, like Siri
Is the Samsung Galaxy S3 the greatest smartphone ever made? That's a tough question. It is one hell of a smartphone though. This and the HTC One X are on a level of their own at this point in 2012, with each offering a few pluses over the other. Both ha...
Available on all major carriers so you don't have to switch carriers if you don't want to, Large, vibrant display, Connects to the fastest network technology available for fast Internet (LTE, HSPA), Camera takes good pictures and videos
The Samsung Galaxy S III is a device that shows a lot of potential for what Samsung is capable of in the future. Samsung has already built the hardware based on the most advanced specs–HD display, quad-core CPU internationally and dual-core S4 in the U.S...
Abstract: I was a bit underwhelmed when Samsung first announced the Galaxy S III. It just seemed so much like HTC's One X, which had already been out on the market, and I didn't see a lot of differences between the two phones. Both would eventually ship to the Unit...

Abstract: We're back with another episode of The BGR Show , and this week we're taking a look at Samsung's Galaxy S III in addition to giving you a walkthrough of Apple's new iOS 6 operating system . Samsung's Galaxy S III is an Android powerhouse, packed with a qu...
Excellent highresolution screen, Some clever usability features, Quadcore processor, Good battery life, MicroSD storage expansion
Large and unwieldy, Smart Stay feature failed to work consistently
The Galaxy S III is a very impressive smartphone. Samsung has put a lot of thought into adding value to Android 4.0, taking advantage of motion control and sweeping gestures. It's a pity that Smart Stay didn't work well for us, but we can see its potentia...
