SGS3 just released in 28 countries.

Just saw the breaking news on android spin. Although it's not yet released in the United States, it's good to see that Samsung is sticking to their promise of releasing the SGS3 world wide this summer. I'm thinking that the T- Mobile release date in June may actually be true.

You mean, the fine ladies and gentlemen at T-Mobile will release a version of the long awaited sgs3 that's TOTALLY different from what Samsung released to the wild?

Btw... what really did Samsung upgrade????? The camera.......same 8 megapixel as we have... the screen.... um it uses pentile which is horrible for clarity..... the processor... US carriers will get the quadcom s4 which is still duel core... if anyone buys a g3 I think their an idiot... I'm waiting for the iPhone 5 because Sammy has disappointed me.

S4 krait snapdragon is a15 which has 40% more per core performance than standard a9 in exynos. The gpu in the exynos is better. But the CPU is weaker. Performance will actually be the same now unlike last year Samsung galaxy s2 fiasco. All phones will have vsync on so you will be locked at 60 fps regardless of what processor you have. Development should be unpar with the exynos since the USA will have s4 and international exynos. A15 dual core has the performance slightly Better than quadcore a9. Regardless of benchmarks.

Who said they won't use an Exynos 4 dual core or an Exynos 5 dual core. The late problems were only with the Tegra based processors. Exynos 5 is based off the Tegra but it is vastly different and barely even resembles it.

No way it can be based of tegra because nvidia is closed source almost everything. Tmobile will have a s4 krait and 2 gigs rams Samsung Canada has confirmed it so has tmonews. The 2 gigs ram and a15 processor. Make the phone a beast.

that's stupid. tmobile is changing their towers to include the 1900mhz spectrum, just buy the int'l version of the s3, problem solved. Cpu makes a big difference in how clear the screen is/photo quality. I had an Epic 4G Touch with Sprint (has the dual core Exynos) before coming to T-Mobile and it was a lot better than this phone in just about every way, the screen's colors were more vivid, there was less noise in photos, image quality was incredible, battery lasted longer, even images taken with the front facing camera were nicer, response times were faster. Cpu makes a big difference. Have fun with the iPhone, not that anyone cares about how Samsung disappointed you.

The difference was no one seems to get this Samsung actually optimized the software around exynos. The Samsung Galaxy S2 with qualcomm processor was ported software. Not as well optimized as the exynos. Samsung was in a rush to get the phone released in the states. Samsung knowing LTE is the big thing in the USA. Will optimize both phones equally now. Especially if the phones are being released so closely towards each other. Even the developers in the Samsung Galaxy s3 forum are saying that the 2 gig krait cpu is the better phone. A9 dual core to a9 quad core is not much of an improvement. Krait actually is and it keeps up with the best with less cores. Until true a15 cores come out.

"Galaxy S2 Plus" What a Joke!

"Galaxy S2 Plus" What a Joke!
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57...ls-galaxy-s2-plus-with-a-shot-of-android-4.1/
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-unveils-galaxy-s2-plus-minor-spec-bump-over-original
JUST LIKE THE S2:
- The S2 Plus will offer a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor
- 1GB of RAM
- 4.3-inch WVGA Super AMOLED Plus display
- An 8-megapixel camera with an LED flash on the back
- 2-MP camera graces the front
Differences to the S2:
- Many of the plus versions will have NFC
- The Internal memory is 8GB unlike the original 16gb s2's
- Can Support a 64gb card (very likely due to running JB)
- Will come boxed with JB 4.1.2
Main upgrades:
- Plus variant will be running JB.4.1.2 out of the box
So basically Samsung are re-releasing our phone with stock installed JB and will probably retail for a very stupid price, this make me think we are actually going to get an official update well after this releases worldwide which could be a few months. hopefully our devs can port a plus ROM once it leaks. i reckon Samy just getting rid of old stock which was banned to sell in the USA after the APPLE lawsuit, but now the ban has been reversed.
In detail video comparison : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tEDhipUBYc

I'm sure the S2+ jellybean f/w has already been leaked. Does it use an exynos CPU?
If its not broken, don't fix it!

in all honesty i bet its just software related, i cant imagine Samsung changing the hardware for the camera, considering they would have to replace the cameras of thousands of already boxed brand new phones. but maybe they changed the camera its a possibility.

Yep, we'll have to wait till s2+is released worldwide and then the updates will begin to roll out. Add another month to that for each individual region. Ironically jb has already started rolling out for the galaxy s advance... I dont understand Samsung's crazy marketing strategy. With the amount of time they've taken for the update we should be getting 4.2...

If you think deeper you may realize this is not a bad thing. So they are realising "new" s2. since its "new" phone, it may mean that they plan to upgrade it to
further versions of android? If so, since its almost the same phone, that could man further versions of android for us also.

The truth is it'll be the opposite going forward. SGS2 and SGS2+ don't share same h/w components and their launch has a long gap.

Here is what I know so far.
GALAXY S4 is rumored to be released in May for Sinkies.
It will definitely be officially priced at $998, its standard for high-end phones here.
All telcos will definitely get. StinkTel, Laghub & MaiOne.
And it's definitely the I9505 without question

Re: [OFFICIAL] [DISCUSSION] Singapore Galaxy S4

25% diff in battery life is too big on a same model of phone. Maybe 5-10% difference favoring the Exynos I think.

I really presumed that we are going to get I9505 since most Asian countries are getting I9500, sadly that's not the case. Here is a very interesting read by AndreiLux: Exynos Octa and why you need to stop the drama about the 8 cores. I'm seriously reconsidering not to buy S4 right now, probably at least till reliable benchmarks and battery test are being populated to determine how much they differ. But well, there is however the LTE factor that may change my mind. Below is a post quoted from GT-I9500 vs GT-I9505...Differences are huge! by SlimJ87D.
SlimJ87D said:
But again, I've bought into the whole LTE thing because again LTE is now EVERYWHERE I travel to and live. So when I'm surfing the web or tethering for my work laptop, I'll see a much larger increase in internet speeds than I do with the speeds that are similar to my i9300.
I believe my i9300 got around 4.5 mbps at it's best while my GF's SGH-i747 got around 17 mbps, this is in OC, CA USA. This is a HUGE difference.
