What is it?
The latest smartphone from Samsung with a big screen, lots of innovations and a desire to be an iPhone-botherer.
What's great:
The phone is, literally, thanks to its 4.8in screen. Smart Stay, S Voice and Direct Call are among the cool gimmicks.
What's not:
The glossy design won't appeal to everyone, and the size will be too much for many.
The bottom line:
The latest Samsung is a big step forward from last year's Galaxy S II with lots of new features, a big battery that lasts and lasts and a powerful processor at its heart.

I agree Mr Smith it looks like it's all going down the Apple road as on there IPad the Blue Tooth will not recognise anything but Apple and you have to buy as an extra the USB connection for your camera and SD card plus you cannot transfer music from your IPod to your IPad, the IPad is not as good as they make it out to be as your very very restricted your just as well off with a good smart phone.

Too big, too light, feels like a toy.
S Voice is a gimmick and has been available on every Nokia phone since 2000.
Also it has an NFC chip that lets you send pics etc straight to another phone with an NFC chip. One problem, Samsung have restricted this so it only works with other S3's. Who do they think they are? Apple?!
