The latest “Next Galaxy”
smartphone continues to make headlines
several hours after its official
launch. One of the most
controversial Galaxy handsets
released by Samsung, the phone
comes with a range of interesting
applications and services.
Before we take an in-depth look on
the software features of the third-
generation Galaxy S, we recommend
those interested in the phone’s
hardware performance to check out
this article for the latest benchmark
results scored by Galaxy S III.
The first thing I want to point out is
that Samsung has built the Galaxy S III
with convergence in mind. The phone
is packed with all sorts of software
meant to improve the user’s
experience and make it easier to take
advantage of the phone’s features.
The Galaxy S III can recognize the
user’s voice and understand his/her
intention. The software that comes
pre-loaded enhances the interaction
between the device and its user.
The handset can also detect the user’s
face, though this is no news. In
addition, Galaxy S III is capable of
detecting the user’s gestures and it
can even adapt to the user’s needs in
order to provide a smoother
experience.
For example, with the “Smart stay”
feature, Samsung Galaxy S III actively
learns how the owner uses the phone
and provides everything that is
required for a much better experience
without having to set any additional
options.
The smartphone uses the front
camera to identify the user’s eyes and
can detect when he/she reads an e-
book or browse the web, so it is able
to maintain a bright display for a
better experience.
“S Voice” is an advanced natural
language user interface that many
think it’s superior to Apple’s Siri
similar software. With “S Voice,”
Galaxy S III listens and responds to
the user’s words.
Aside from being able to provide
search results, the new feature offers
powerful device control and
commands. It can quickly act based
on user’s voice command, so when
the phone alarm goes off and you
want to snooze it, just say the word
and the phone will automatically
recognize your voice and snooze the
alarm.
The “S Voice” feature can also be
used to play songs, turn the volume
up or down, send text messages and
emails, organize an agenda, or
automatically launch the camera and
capture a photo.
There’s more to it, as Samsung Galaxy
S III can recognize the user’s face and
voice, so when he/she is messaging
someone but decides to call them
instead, they only need to lift the
phone to their ear and “Direct call”
will dial their number.
In addition, “Smart alert” catches any
missed messages or calls as the
phone will vibrate to notify missed
statuses when picked up after being
idle.
Last but not least, Galaxy S III comes
with “S Beam,” which is an improved
version of Android Beam feature. “S
Beam” allows a 1GB movie file to be
shared within no more than three
minutes and a 10MB music file within
two seconds by simply touching
another Galaxy S III phone.
The same can be done with the
“Buddy photo share” function, which
allows photos to be shared with
friends pictured in an image directly
from a camera or photo gallery.
