wow i want it so baddddddd

Jaw dropping specs. Hopefully the report is accurate.

AstroDigital · Feb 27, 2012

Read comments says 1080p is overkill on a smart phone display.

Well duh, can they not picture people attaching their smartphones to a HD TV or projector?

I think I am just sticking with Google devices from now on, if Samsung makes it or HTC (rumor). I am sick of the slow upgrade cycle; on ICS has been out almost 4 months..... way too slow.

How would they manage that kind of ppi?

That's like 459ppi. Galaxy Nexus is like 316ppi.

Being able to output 1080p via hdmi and actually having a 1080p screen are two different things. I do think that sort of pixel density is overkill and serves only to overwork the gpu.

I also think I prefer 16:10 to 16:9.

BGR leak = unreliable

Engadget is a bit better, and they posted an article with the same specs

"a bit" is both right and ambiguous. They repost articles from sites that repost articles from other sites. At least they usually point out things that sound too good to be true.

Only mentions that it will be a Super AMOLED Plus HD display, which makes me think (meaning I am just making a random guess) it's a nonpentile display like the Nexus, and so it would be 720, which is still awesome. I wouldn't mind being wrong, but it just seems like we would have heard about a break through in OLED tech before the specs were released.

I heard google isnt going to be updating like usual anymore. Like their releasing their next updates to more phones rather than their nexus line. I mean this for next gen though.

All i need in a galaxy s 3:

-Quad Core Exynos @ 1.5GHz (LTE CAPABLE DAMMIT)
-1280x720 Super AMOLED Plus HD @ 1.65"
-Sexy Body < 9mm Thin
-2000mAh+ Battery
-LTE
-ICS
-8MP Camera (although 12 would be nice, but an improved 8MP is all i need)

That's pretty much it

Lucidmike · Feb 28, 2012

Sounds amazing. I think Qualcomm has a lot of LTE licensing control in the US. Don't be surprised at the last minute the 1.5 ghz Quad Exynos is replaced by 1.7ghz Quad Snapdragon that runs 1/2 the speed.

I think my Skyrocket is good enough to keep me happy for 18 more months. And at that time, imagine what amazing tech we'll be able to get when it'll be time to renew.

I meant to say betanews, as that's where I read the article from, but it seems he too is quoting bgr, which, as u said is about as reliable as the national inquirer. If indeed these specs r tru that would be great, but on further investigation the exynos Chooser was only just recently been demoed to the public, let alone shipped with any Samsung devices, As the s3 has been in Dev for awhile, I'm more skeptical now. I honestly think it will still be a dual core exynos. U could always jump ship and get an HTC One X

Completely agree. That sounds like my perfect phone. God I love LTE.

I'm assuming you meant 4.65"

And can I get a f'ing hardware keyboard phone with top of the line specs..preferably with 5 rows but I'll take 4 just to get the keyboard.

That thing had better haves nice battery, dual core phones already have some battery woes..quad core is just ridiculous to me.

<Rant> I would sell my skyrocket in a heartbeat for a phone that was even 80% as good but with a physical keyboard. Don't get me wrong, I luv my skyrocket, but texting and emails on ANY touchscreen is still cumbersome at best. Touchscreen intuitive with added keyboard is still the way to go in my opinion. This isn't a niche market, if a respectable manufacturer came out with something recent, people would flock to it as a viable alternative to crapberrys </Rant>

the2rrell · Feb 28, 2012

this is THE device that i am waiting on......the note will hold me over till the SGSIII is dropped. and i WILL be getting it. im hoping that they can keep the exynos though, but for some reason i doubt it.

either way it should be a beast of a device for the end users. im hoping by years end this device will be available to us.

keeps fingers crossed.

kr3w1337 · Feb 28, 2012

I wanna see how the Exynos matches the krait quad core before wasting more money.
