Best Samsung galaxy s3 review in video (youtube)

2012-06-25T16:13:00.000+08:00

so far this is the best video review for this awesome galaxy s3.

New Samsung galaxy s3 coming soon

2012-04-21T16:11:00.000+08:00

Lot of rumors about this galaxy s2 successor. And Amazon Germany website even put up the pre order page now. Look like everyone is waiting for the galaxy sIII official announcement.

What i want from S3 is:
- better battery life. I hate my s2 battery life. With the orginal 1650mah battery i can only get 8-10 hours of life when on normal use. (wifi on, FB, twitter, reading news on pulse, whatsapp a lot and few call).
- Better built material. Maybe more steel :)
- .....still thinking.....

But I dont think i will buy the S3. I am still very happy with my galaxy s2 :p (almost one years old now)
