[snoopen]

very jealous.

i need a new phone and the s3 hasn't been announced in AU.. not a good thing that we're missing out on phone releases.

 

[nateeasy]

So the Galaxy Nexus is a pretty good phone then?

 

[king zell]

Well?

well for me its an amazing upgrade coming from the S1, the screen is really nice the phone is very light and has a nice grip, am loving it.

 

[HammerOfThor]

I want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DietRob]

just got mine

So sexy. This is my next phone for Sprint.

 

[king zell]

just wanna say one thing, pic's don't do justice for this phone, this thing is really nice looking in hand.

 

[Cousteau]

Did you get any kind of cover/case for it?

 

[king zell]

Did you get any kind of cover/case for it?

not really

 

[massoluk]

Probably too much to ask, all the reviews said it can play MKV flawlessly... Fact or fiction? Subtitle support?

 

[Myoclonic Jerk]

not really

That's my only worry with these new (huge screen) phones. I'm clumsy so I need a decent practical cover day-1

i played some 720p naruto eps with Subtitle and it worked flawlessly (and looked amazing by the way). also played some berserk mkv files with no problem's at all

Sold.

 

[neorej]

dat screen!

 

[Altazor]

I am REALLY jealous. I want it, but I still have some months to go with my current phone (SGS I), so I'll have to wait.

I'm still undecided whether I'm getting the Pebble Blue or the Marble White. I was firmly in the MW camp when it was released, but then I saw some videos off PB and changed my mind and wanted it instead. Now I just don't know

Were the subtitles baked in or seperate?

without having the device (yet), I'm sure I've read some reviews in which is stated that de SGS III can play video files with separate subtitles without problem, and that actually, it gives you the choice to choose the sub you want to use, even if it doesn't have the same filename as the video.

 

[Myoclonic Jerk]

Ok, I think I made up my mind. SIII and not One X


Where can I buy one online?

handtec.co.uk for the GSM model.

Please someone confirm this, this would be a very nice feature for me!

ps: allready ordered phone anyways, but would be nice to know for sure

[cartoon_soldier]

Do we know if the US versions will look and have the same internals?

 

[Zeppu]

NO. No cases. Beautiful phone deserves to be displayed beautifully.

I'm pretty sure any recent Android device can, if not with its stock video player then with MX Player or DicePlayer.

I would never had expected this for a smartphone out of the box, the pluses just keep coming for me, even if I won't use it to watch movies, wow.

I'm not too surprised since Samsung TVs and blu-ray players nowadays can also play mkv files if you connect a hard drive to them.

 

[kehs]

For what it's worth DICE player handles separate file subtitles without any problems. However, the subtitles don't show on the MHL output. At least on my GN.

 

[king zell]

ok just tried the separate file subtitles and it works flawlessly.

 

[Toki767]

Something that I still have not seen when it comes to the Galaxy S III is how the folder icons look. Is it ICS style or iOS style like what HTC did with the One X?

[kehs]

That combination background, empty homescreen, and the folder reminds me of cupcake android.

 

[Toki767]

Looks like I'll be installing Nova or Apex launcher then.

 

[Piano]

Will an unlocked GSIII work on Tmobile in the US?

 

[Toki767]

Yes. You'd only get Edge though I believe.

 

[TwIsTeD]

i`m gonna return my One X (at&t) and just wait for this....I love the One X but there's something about this

 

[zedge]

Grrr..still with the crap folders..cmon sammy. Same with ICS on the gs2. Why would they leave this out?

 

[Cousteau]

Galaxy S4 New Folders!

 

[Sagitario]

The SIII is out already? :O

 

[Toki767]

The SIII is out already? :O

In India.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

In India.

I thought the Indian release date is May 31st?

 

[The Faceless Master]

Probably, but that's the issue I guess, carrying around an adapter, what happens when you accidentally hand it off during a deal, uh oh, can't call the mistress.

keep the adapter in the phone that needs it?

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Hmm...so the US versions will have Snapdragon S4 to support LTE and most are assuming it won't use the Wolfson DAC audio either.

Now confused whether I should see if my parents can get me the international version from India or wait for US release. I wish US T-Mobile specs would come out, that is the only one that may use Exynos with Wolfson DAC

 

[justjohn]

Finally decided to get this. The iPad will give me my iOS fix anyway.

 

[Cousteau]

No Wolfson DAC for the Red,White and Blue????

 

[kehs]

Thanks for calling out my faulty logic days after the fact.

The international version of the phone will only use Edge on T-Mobile. It only supports HSPA+ on AT&T.

You may be able to purchase one from a Canadian provider. Wind mobile here uses T-mobile bands, don't have LTE and are rumoured to get the SIII.
