Hands-on with the Samsung Galaxy S III Smartphone

Last night was the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone at the Samsung Unpacked 2012 event in London, and we were on hand to see, and play with the new S III.

I have to say I was very impressed with it. Whilst it felt quite large in my hands, I soon got used to it and it felt quite natural.

The screen is nothing short of breath-taking – I found even after a short time of using it, going back to my iPhone 4S felt strange, and the 4S screen looked a little washed out in comparison!

And here is a video showing it in action (I had to remove the sound at there was someone nearby trying to us the S Voice features to ask rude questions)!

What do you think of the S III?

I am really impressed with it, and I can’t wait to try it out for longer, and with less people trying to get it from me!

    I am running my Droid X with MIUI ROM and it is getting quite long in the tooth. Thinking about this, the Note is likely too big and of course the iPhone 5 if I can wait that long.

    dull platinum would have been a much better colour.
