Apple lawsuits incoming.

 

[gcubed]

There's a feature where it see's your eyes and turns on the display when you're looking at it. I'm assuming that the camera's are on all the time but I'm sure you can turn this feature off anyway.

i dont think it turns itself on when you are looking at it does it? It won't turn itself off

 

[Toki767]

When do they announce release, carriers, and price?

At the start they already said US/Japan and some other place by summer. Though it was the Samsung President saying it and to me it sounded like he said by December, but I think he meant summer.

 

[Divvy]

I need a new phone. Will get this when it releases in US. No date for USA yet, right? Just it'll launch end of the month overseas?

They said summer for US. Coming to sprint confirmed.

 

[rabhw]

This is a really shitty press conference in terms of presentation...it feels like everything was written by a marketing team in Korea and then translated to English using Google translate. None of the text reads nicely, or sounds natural when spoken by a presenter.

 

[jokkir]

S Beam = Android Beam?

 

[bananas]

AllShare Cast Dongle

lol wut

 

[gcubed]

S Beam = Android Beam?

sorta, but then it uses wifi direct to transfer files, which is actually pretty smart, and something i wish Google would steal

 

[NateDrake]

They said it will release the 4G version for NA, Japan, and Korea in the summer sometime.

Awesome. I shall look forward to the summer release. Hopefully it'll be around August or so.

Are you saying "MADE FOR HUMANS" Is somehow cold and alienating?

What's WiFi direct? ><

AllShare Cast Dongle

lol wut

You dont hear that for the first time, right?

Bluetooth dongles back in the day....

Also, you want him to speak AMERICAN or what?

 

[Chris R]

Lots of new stuff, but I'd never use any of it. I'll be sticking with my Galaxy S II I guess.

 

[longdi]

sorry samsung, best android ics phone this gen.
the blacks on the super lcd is very good too!
maybe the exynos mali gpu is very very fast..

 

[skybaby]

What? I'm not watching the event. Is this true?

You can unlock it with voice and the front facing camera looks at you all the time (to keep screen on)

 

[D23]

whats with the soft elevator music in teh background... distracting

You do realise there were other Siri like applications before Siri came out?

Never heard someone speaking English with a French accent?

 

[deadhorse32]

It's thaaaaaat simple !!

 

[-COOLIO-]

the one x does look better and has a better screen, but the battery, and screen size of the s3 is tempting.

it all comes down to the cpu

Except for the bootloader bullshit.

 

[Ashes]

stream?

 

[Cipherr]

Yeah they definitely need to put that in JB or an upcoming mini update. Transferring a 1GB file from one phone to another in a couple of minutes is fucking awesome.

 

[Divvy]

Some of these features sound good, some sound stupid. I'm assuming you can disable some of them.

 

[gcubed]

What's WiFi direct? ><

its a quick setup wifi connection (with the NFC feature, it would be seamless to the user) between the devices.

I was commenting on how dumb of a name AllShare Cast Dongle is.

Even if it is, point of diminishing returns.

What are we going to need a quad exynos and Mali combo for that can't br handled just as well by the s4/tegra 3?

 

[longdi]

pentile eeeww.
it is disappointing next gen android phones are still on 1gb...

 

[123rl]

Rip off Airplay: check
Rip off Siri: check
Reused Pentile screen: check
Reused Camera: check

The camera is good so that's not a problem. Airplay-similar features are a good addition as long as it works properly. I love Airplay. The only inexcusable thing is the screen. No excuse for cheaping out on a crappy screen. But as long as the marketing blurb will say 720p people will ignore (or not understand) the reason why it looks so poor

 

[asdad123]

Ill stick with my Nexus until the next line of phones.

Switched from a 4s to it and I love android now lol.

 

[Biff]

lol @ all the PenTile comments.

How many of you have eyes that actually detect the difference? Or are you just on the hater bandwagon? I've had my i9000 for 2 years now; played with countless other phones, don't see any difference at all.

 

[gcubed]

uh oh, gonna steal BB's thunder?

 

[Cipherr]

Probably but Im just watching for fun now. Im going to go with Sprints variant of the OneX. I am interested in knowing whether or not they get an Exynos Quad on the US variants, but Im assuming they wont. That would be the only thing that could change my mind, but I dont see that happening so I think I have chosen my next phone.

Craaaaaaaaaazy how high the competition is though, HTC really hit a home run and got on Samsungs level this year. So awesome.

I was referring to the names S-cloud and S-voice.

I'd rather they stick to the OLEDs.

Yep the One X is pretty much THE phone this year so far.

it is, but the way that Sammy used the NFC to activate a wifi direct session to transfer files is different... and should be copied

Wow, she really knows how to sell a product.

what do you need more than 1gb or ram on a phone for other than dickwaving at this point? Nothing on 4.0 will crash due to a lack of ram.

Rumors point that Samsung will be making the Nexus 4, so I doubt it.
