Checkout the unpacked app guys,, it contains the press release even before actual unveiling of product! Camera is 8mp, not 12 mp as said.... :(

Yeah. The fact that companies and consumers are still planning their Android devices around that little girls phone is still beyond me. Specs wise the iPhone has been overshadowed for years, yet just like Coach purses they're popular even though there's nothing special to them. Who cares if it is popular if it is inferior? Just because it sells a whole bunch does not make it better, I mean dumb phones sell more than smartphones. Does that make them superior? It just goes to show you that Apple buyers aren't the smartest of the bunch. However iPhones do one thing great, they make computer illiterate people feel like they actually know how to use a smart phone.

It's not inferior

Thumbs downed me all you want, look at this phone and check out the specs. This is like the great granddaddy of all iPhones. How are you supposed to take the iPhone seriously with things like the Galaxy S3 or the HTC One X launching? Not to mention the success of the Galaxy Note... iPhones suuuuuck.

Yep, I was just thinking I'm going to keep my Samsung Galaxy S2; it's Been good to me, though new tech is quite tempting...

I love that idea, but that's just too much for us right now... it should be 2GB of RAM, like LG has "announced"... the next standard for true Android smartphones! An Android with 8GB of RAM is like a ultraphone or something... Anything, but smart, just high-performing, and whatnot =)

i think, today a bunch of phones will be unpacked..............i.e. 3-4 mobiles as the teaser said A WHOLE NEW GALAXY WILL BE UNVEILED........yipeee.....

On May 3rd, Samsung will introduce Galaxy S3. And you'll see why 2012 won't be like 2012.

That lines reminds me of a commercial from another companies line. Hmm, of course 1984 had context and your quote has none.
22. biophone posted on 03 May 2012, 12:55 4
your on a android article talking about apple albeit a reply to a post about apple.
31. taco50 (banned) posted on 03 May 2012, 13:09 1
Nothing wrong with reading an article right? Go to any Apple article to see these same people trolling.
36. biophone posted on 03 May 2012, 13:13 4
You criticize them for posting on apple articles and your doing the same thing. And you claim not too.
43. taco50 (banned) posted on 03 May 2012, 13:22 0
I'm not trolling while these guys are still trolling Apple on android articles. Have I said anything anti android?
Why don't you call them out when they're trolling Apple.
40. ilia1986 posted on 03 May 2012, 13:17 2
Yes. Exactly. Samsung is doing now what Apple did in 1984 - breaking away from the big all-powerful brother who has millions of white mindless minions.
Now, Samsung is the brave rebel, fighting against Apple's oppression and control.
The irony. The epic irony.

Samsung is fighting for money just like Apple
62. yt6nin posted on 04 May 2012, 09:20 1
It's the end of 2012 with such higher-end smartphones. We're inmidst of a real intense smartphone battle amongst the individual Android manufacturers and Apple. Their battle heat's gonna kill us all with such amazing and tempting phones.

In a galaxy there are planets....why not introduce phone with planet names...
Samsung Pluto
Samsung urANUS
just as an example.
17. frydaexiii posted on 03 May 2012, 12:50 4
Uranus would be a pretty "crappy" budget model I guess.
25. networkdood posted on 03 May 2012, 13:00 1
ok, why the -1...it was a joke...of sorts...lol
63. yt6nin posted on 04 May 2012, 09:21 0
so, if Samsung decided to go with that plan and releases a "Samsung Sun" phone, would it end up overheating and be useless or be just so hot to look @ and have that one would hate to use it and get it dirty??? =P

By the time the states get the phone, iphone 5 will be announced or out - should be a great battle of phones.

Your kidney? Pass. Your tight little ass might get an offer,though. I just need about ten minutes.

Super AMOLED??? SO it's not Super AMOLED Plus? :P Pentile?
53. taz89 posted on 03 May 2012, 13:34 1
It does much more... Really its an improved version of androids built in voice recognition
44. NowItsAParty posted on 03 May 2012, 13:22 1
I will be getting the International version of this phone! The US version will be LTE equipped, but slower processor! That is a BIG "NG," No Go!

where IS the bezel less display, its nothing extraordinary designwise, the galaxy nexus looks better than this. can't even come close to the design of HTC one series and hmm...the iphone, apple and HTC are the pioneers when it comes to design.
