Conclusion:

The Samsung S III will no doubt do as well, or even better than its predecessor. The plastic chassis may not be to everyone's liking, but the hardware and software improvements give smartphone buyers good reasons to get this handset. The camera is great, and of comparable in quality to HTC's One X. We like the handset, but not as much as the One X, which has a much better design, build and a better sense of not messing up Google's ICS UI. However, the S III will still be the phone of choice for many, given Samsung's smartphone dominance, thanks to a string of good products and aggressive marketing.

Advantages

Beautiful high-resolution display; user-friendly software tweaks; solid but plastic build, fast performance; great camera; expandable storage.

Disadvantage

Plastic build; design doesn't really feel ergonomic; Gingerbread-tisation of UI; expensive.
