Now that I have had my Samsung Galaxy S3 for awhile, I wanted to give an update on some of my favorite things (cue Sound of Music singing song “My Favorite Things”). You may have seen some of the features on commercials the past couple weeks, they are quite amusing an I applaud Samsung for being so clever!
Smart Stay: It waits till you’re asleep: the screen maintains a bright display as long as you’re looking at it.
Direct Call: It knows when you want to talk: if you’re sending a message but decide to call instead, simply lift the phone to your ear and it will dial your friend’s number automatically.
Smart Alert: It knows when you’ve been away from your phone: a vibrating nudge lets you know
that you have missed calls or messages.
S Voice: It responds to you: you can tell the phone to wake up, answer an incoming call, or even take a photo.
LTE: Faster downloads compared with current 3G networks. And it’s only going to get faster
Best Photo: When shooting images using the S III’s burst mode function, you can capture a succession of images from which your S III will automatically select the best one, or you can manually choose the best photo.
Out of these I would say my FAVORITE two features are best photo, and smart stay. I hate when I am trying to read something and my iPhone goes dim and I have to tap the screen! smart phones truly are getting smarter and smarter!
So, my dog may be hiding my phone from me…

In running news, my new Asics are set to arrive today, but I have a long run on tap for this morning that can’t wait, so I will get this run out of the way and hopefully get to try out my new shoes tomorrow. I can’t wait to show you guys! They are pretty sweet looking.
QOTD: Thoughts on this phone? What is your favorite thing about your phone?
Disclosure: I am participating in the Verizon Wireless Ambassador program and have been provided
with a wireless device and three months of service in exchange for my honest opinions about the
product.

I have the galaxy s II and think it’s great. I know the galaxy s III is much better though! It cracks me up how people are totally all over the iPhone, when I think these phones are so much better!
hmmm now I mightcould be regretting the iphone.
I have a droid – an older samsung and when it finally dies I may be interested in this phone. I am not a droid fan. How’s the battery life?
it’s not quite as good as my iphone, but I had the original galaxy and it’s way better than that!
I am so not an Apple girl and am getting close to an upgrade on my Droid. Might need to investigate this phone more!!!!
Fingers crossed these shoes are “the one”!!
um direct call sounds awesome! seems like a great phone!
Very cool… your phone totally needs a nickname.
I believe so. any ideas?
