I don't know why they would really bother with 1080p display or anything, it is already to the point where normal people can't distinguish the difference in resolution between super high end devices.
No, I don't need a higher resolution screen, I need a more adaptable screen with brighter, realistic colors that still manage to POP. A screen that works just as well outside in the sun as inside in the dark.
Improve the technology we have rather than constantly trying to develop new ways to do what we do that aren't really much, if any, better and are even worse sometimes.
Galaxy s4 will most likely have similar specs to the Galaxy s3.

5-5.3 in screen? That's Note territory, I think the screen will stay the same size.
I don't care about megapixels, 8mp is prefect for me. Now it would be awesome if they had better quality optics and optical zoom....

I'm still waiting for my S3.
Same screen size
1080p screen that isn't pentile, and works great in sunlight
don't mind if they stay at 8MP, just better sensors and optics(MP just means a larger image)
4000mAh battery
3MP front facing camera
32GB entry level S4
Build quality like the HTC One X or S imo

Tegra 3? Tegra 3 will be old news this time next year. Anyway, why would Samsung use Tegra 3 when it has Exynos?
the same form factor with the following improvements:
newer display tech
22nm (or better) processor tech
software
all leading to improved battery life and performance
radio speeds wont really get much better, 4g networks are still being improved next gen networks wont be up and running yet. with the same screen size, anything over 720p wont be required. focus will be on code and power efficient tech to improve battery life and os speed.
- 5" bezel-less non-pentile AMOLED
- 2GHz quad-core
- 4GB RAM
- laser beams
- pink unicorns
I want an updated camera and optics. F2.0 and beats iPhone 4gs's camera in every way. I want studder free record and playback of 1080p recording. I also want a mic with built in auto level control so no more distorted vid audio.
4.8 inch screen, super amoled plus, Dual core A15 Exynos and the new Mali Gpu ( I hope)!!! and more motion features tho I don't know what else they can add but you never know!

About the only thing i saw skimming that wouldn't make it for sure is the screen.
Doubling the ram isnt crazy at all. 12MP while not even desirable due to image noise is pretty low considering the HTC Titan II and others are sporting 16MP sensors. 2 Ghz A9 dual core is available pushing it a little but hey.
12 megapixels actually can be pretty good. It isnt all about megapixels. My wife has a 500 dollar Canon that is only 14. I am pretty sure our 8 megapixel is better than a lot of phones.
On my Epic mobile phone.
I think that is the Sprint LTE phone to get. My SGS2E4GT will last me until there is LTE in my area. By then the GNex will be old news. SGS3 will be my upgrade.
I hated 3D. I got an EVO 3D before and is not good watching a full movie. It hurts your eye. Why not change the screen size to match the galaxy note.
Rumors or not that image is awesome..
Go a little stronger on the radios this time Samsung... kthx.
Reality S3 probably:
1.5 Quadcore - 12MP Camera - 16/32GB - 2GB Ram
Wishful S3:
2.5GB Quadcore - 16MP camera - 32/64GB - 2/3GB Ram
What will make me say WOW is if I could replace my laptop and be able to handle medium to light heavy processing power of a laptop (probably s4)... Until then it's business as usual.
If that's true, I'm starting to save right now.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Those specs are nice, but they better make sure the radios they user are to of the line with no GPS issues or loss of signal problems and slow 3g.
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII EPIC 4g Touch on XDA Premium!
We have to remember we're dealing with a phone manufacturer AND processor maker here. It all depends on which route Samsung decides to go with their processors...the Nvidia route, and racing to add more cores; or the qualcomm route, and trying to improve and refine their dual cores. Both ways offer benefits.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't quad core. Quad core is sorta overkill and it might be a battery hog. I am thinking something bigger than 1.5 dual core is in order though.

I have tried to convince the HTC fanboys exactly this but they don't want to hear it. All they have to say it, Samsung phones are plastic and junk.....Um okay, I will enjoy my junk phone that destroys the EVO 3D in every way but you keep thinking your phone is better.
I am so glad I gave this phone a chance because it made me realize how crappy and underachievers HTC phones really are.
Whatever the SGS3 will have it will have to be an upgrade from the SGS2 and because of that, I will be on it!
I knew it, im pretty sure this is real, the next S4 will be the most powerful device...Samsung Exynos 5450 @ 2.0 GHz Quad Core.

well Apple called .5 an amazing revolution, I'm sure samsung can get away with calling .2 a big leap haha
This could be true but based upon all the "leaked" specs that came out right up until the release of the S3, this may all be speculation.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Good lord! That would be awesome. Specs would be second to none.
And also the better build quality thing. Although the SIII gave Apple a run for its money, a better aesthetics quality build could finally put Apple to sleep (not saying that's Samsung's objective, other creating quality devices.) But I still know a few Apple fanboy stragglers who still won't switch because of the plastic quality of the S3. Maybe this will be the straw that breaks the camels back.

In all fairness, Samsung's responded and has been pushing source code out for Exynos CPUs. It does make future purchasers skeptical, though.

I doubt it. Google puts strong price constraints in nexus devices lately. And Samsung isn't gonna develop to there own just to keep a flag ship CPU out of a flag ship phone...... our phone strongly resembles a15 architecture basically it is

Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
the thing is with the build quality of samsung and apple from what i noticed is that the plasticy feel oh the phone actually makes it more durable against hard falls compared to apples iphone with its strong firm build of the device makes it more vulnerable when it comes to hard falls because the phone is actually pressurized to the point where one little fall can cause major damage to the iphone. so from that ill take a plastic feel of a phone against iphone build quality

Just curious what you guys think on how our phone stacks up against the s3? I don't really like how big it is, but is it that far off ? The version if the s3 that is sold where I am is dual core, so is there really a big difference ?
Lol its loads faster. Bigger screen. HD display. 2 gigs of ram. Its a win win all around.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
I had a 4" screen (Lg g2x) and wanted the bigger screen so my only two phones I would have wanted were the sgs2 and 3 because I previously had a captivate and it was great. I still went with the sgs2 because i just found the screen on the 3 too large for one hand use and wasn't worth the extra money to me.
In my honest opinion, Samsung really banged out a powerhouse in the s3. Bigger super amoled plus display, 2 GB ram, a notification light , and best of all TOUCH WIZ UX. This has amazing built in features such as swipe your palm to take a screen shot, to smart stay, where the phone doesn't turn of when you're looking at it. The international version as well has a quad core processor. Hope this answered your question/ helped in any way

Lol wut? Where are you getting your info from? The s4, even though its a dual is faster by 20-30%. Cores don't mean anything. Look at the exynos dual core that's about to release.. it puts even the fastest quad cores out to shame.

IM still going to do my own research but I was wondering what your options on those 3 phones are.
Wrong thread
This is for the GS2. Each of those phones have their own thread. No sense in cluttering up this place for questions not relating to this phone. More experts will be found in their respective forums.
Nexus 2? I assume you mean Nexus 4. IMO the GSIII is out of the question because other than the slightly bigger HD screen, the s4 SoC doesn't provide a big enough performance gain over the s3 SoC in the GSII to put it in the same league as the Nexus 4 and GNII.
The real battle would be between the N4 and GNII. Both phones score between 16-18k in antutu stock so performance wise they're both on par.
The real differences are Touchwiz vs Stock Google and the N4s 720p IPA display vs the SAMOLED+ 720 display. Its all preference there but personally I'm a huge fan of SAMOLED and I wouldn't have anything else. The other differences are no SD card support and non removable battery in the N4 vs SD card support and a big ass 3100MaH battery in the GNII.
I'd go with the GNII.

Thank you that was the kind of insight I was looking for. And a really quick look on my part just showed that the nexus 4 doesnt have blue tooth??? that right there just lost it for me. The note 2 is the winner based on what I know. Now it is just a matter of cash for it. I will still be useing the S2 for a while. I didn't see how much the note 2 was... oh well thank you tho

Is it possible To record at this res?
The sensor on the back has enough pixels. It's a question of heat created by the sensor as well as software and possibly hardware requirements.
All depends on how much $$ Samsung put it into the sensor. Honestly, I doubt it's possible due to physical requirements. But, even if it were, who is going to know how to make a camera take that kind of resolution at good quality other than Samsung devs?
If anyone can find the model number of the sensor used in the s4 camera, I can find out if it's possible.

No It's not possible, The GS4 has a 600 Snap Dragon Processor which handles up to 1080p recording beyond that the hardware is not capable of doing that only 800 can do and higher. It cannot do that even with the deepest hacking ever The architecture wasn't designed to support this.
