The Galaxy S3 has a better touchscreen of the iPhone 5S and 5C - Everything Android

Into The new iPhone 5S and 5C apparently have a touchscreen significantly less accurate than that of the Samsung Galaxy S3 . So we’re talking about two “eras” different, since the devices in question were launched to 18 months away from each other, with obvious advantages for the new Apple smartphone .

Into The company OptoFidelity has in fact analyzed the sensitivity and precision of the three touchscreen smartphones and has managed to get some really interesting directions. Using a robotic machine, OptoFidelity was able to measure the accuracy of the touch which offered the touchscreen, and the results were the following:

class=”c5″> iPhone 5S and 5C accurate to a fraction of the display
Samsung Galaxy S3 accurate for the entire display except for the outer edge

Into The image that we show the clarification all, where is shown the whole area of ??the display that is colored in green if the accuracy is highest, that is, the error of the touch is less than 1 mm, while is colored red if the error of the touch is greater than 1 mm.

Into gsmarena_003 As you can see, the new iPhone are accurate in only touch the bottom of the display, which by sheer coincidence is affected by the keyboard. The Galaxy S3 , however, is accurate on virtually all of its display.

Into Even if 1 mm of error might not mean a lot, actually daily use something could change, especially when you need to select a sentence from a text or when you type characters on the keyboard. Below, in fact, we show you an image that shows the accuracy of the touch screen of the new iPhone while using the keyboard.

Into

Into As you can see, some letters like Q, P and O may not be recognized accurately, while analyzing the touch screen with the keyboard Galaxy S3 , you can see how there are virtually problems if not marginal to the extreme edges of the display.

Still Into reports on S5 Galaxy , even from Korea. Now it seems almost certain that the new super smartphone from Samsung home will carry a 64-bit processor , and new information from the source, Korean ittoday.co.kr seem to confirm this.

Into fact it is again confirmed that Samsung have already completed the development work on the new model of 64-bit processor and that could start production within a very short time (probably days or weeks). The new processor would be the ‘ 6 octa-core Exynos based on ARM architecture Cortex-A53/A57 type big.LITTLE and manufactured with 14 nm manufacturing technology.

One of the peculiarity of this Exynos 6 is the fact that it should be able to work simultaneously all the core 8 which is available, using a power which is practically half of that used by the processor Exynos 5420 . This, of course, is to have a positive impact on the autonomy and also on overheating.

Into It is expected also that this processor does not go just to the edge of the S5 Galaxy but also other Samsung devices aboard top of the range that will be launched during the course of 2014.

Galaxy Gear, a user on 3 brings him back to the shop - WebNews

sales of the Samsung Galaxy Gear do not go well, however, and a buyer out of three is reporting the store. Samsung seeks to understand why.

Floriana Giambarresi , October 26, 2013, 11:07 am

Into It seems that sales of the Samsung Galaxy Gear go worse than expected, since approximately 30% of customers who bought a watch it is rolling back into the store . The manufacturer, however, is trying to understand the reason for this return.

Into That is what is learned from an internal document of Best Buy just been leaked on the Internet, which also provides the exact dates for the arrival of the update to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean on Samsung smartphones, which also greatly extend the compatibility of the Galaxy Gear . It reads that “ the rate of return of the Galaxy Gear at Best Buy stores is the highest among all the channels, but the overall rate of return tends to be higher than 30%.”

Into A rate higher than 30% means that about one in three people is reporting the Galaxy Gear in store and this is clearly a way too high, especially for a smartwatch that has received much publicity, both positive and negative. For this reason, the house would be South Korea’s encouraging employees to ask the Best Buy consumer the exact reason to which they are returning the product. Once you have earned enough feedback, the company could use it to improve the eventual Galaxy Gear 2 or to solve their current offer.

Into Recently, a Samsung executive admitted that the Galaxy Gear ‘missing something special, “but the rate of return is probably worse than the company had assumed: it is an alarming rate for a device that Samsung has launched in net ahead of its main competitors (Google, Apple and Microsoft), and that in this context would have to give a significant advantage in the war of the future smartwatch.

Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 will receive Android 4.3 maybe ... - Everything Android

Into transpires on the net an extract from a document that can not certainly be defined as 100% reliable, since we have no information to confirm as reported. The document, in particular, shows the alleged dates of update to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean of some devices Samsung , as Galaxy Note 2 Galaxy S3 , Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S4 Active , all variants of telephone operators USA.

Into From what we can see, the Notes 2 should receive the update in less than 1 month in the variants of any operator, except that of T-Mobile for which the update is expected for the first few days of the month of December. The Galaxy S3 , however, should receive Android 4.3 during the first days of the next month, so in a few weeks, as well as Galaxy S4 should receive the same update in even shorter. As for the Galaxy S4 Active , many operators would not yet provided a definite schedule for the release of the update.

Into

Screen-Shot-2013-10-25-at-12:58:03-PM-590x193

Into Recall that these alleged dates are related to devices marketed by various U.S. operators, and therefore, even if they were true, would still be subject to change for the international market. An example is the Galaxy S4 , which just a few days ago received Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, while the variant of the smartphone for telephone operators USA will receive the same update a few weeks later.

Into Therefore, we can assume at first that the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 will receive Android 4.3 in a shorter time than reported in the document, then the international versions of these two devices could be updated to the new version of Android within a few weeks. Of course we await further confirmation as the only information given in this document is obviously not enough.

Samsung Galaxy S5 will not be made of metal, maybe just plastic coated - The Blasting News

Samsung Galaxy S5 , the smartphone top range that the house will launch South Korea’s most likely in the first half of next year, is the undisputed star of the rumors that many websites publish on its technological details.

The news that seemed almost certain, at least give credit to the rumor of the web, was that Samsung Galaxy S5 would have had a body made of metallic materials, and therefore the Samsung would abandon the traditional plastic for the case of smartphopne.

Now, however, many rumors, published inter alia on the mobile site blog, talk about the fact that the body of Samsung Galaxy S5 will remain in plastic, after which the leaders and the technicians of the Asian realized that the phablet just launched on the market, the Galaxy Notes 3, was also popular in traditional materials.

Marketing experts from Samsung so they decided to revive the plastic case of the new smartphone , but embellishing it with a jacket, at least in the back of the device, with the skin, which should give greater elegance and prestige.

Denials therefore all the rumors for about a month have taken for granted the use of new materials in the construction of Samsung Galaxy S5 , riamangono but the rumors regarding its main technological features, the most important of which should be the new features of the main camera, which, besides being 16 megapixel, should be equipped with a new sensor, capable of making the resolution of the photographs made much higher from the point of view of color .

The challenge for supremacy in the market for phablet, 2014, between Samsung Galaxy S5 and iPhone 6 should therefore be fought to the sound of advanced technological innovations, even if the rumors or concerns regarding the technical features of the new smartphone Apple seem to leak out of the U.S. House are less likely to confirm that the company’s traditional reserve of the “bitten apple” is able to have in the preparation of the commercial launch of its products.

Samsung to record, but sells few Galaxy S4 - WebNews

Floriana Giambarresi , October 25, 2013, 14:09

Samsung has just released the new financial data relating to the previous quarter, which shows a great increase in operating profits achieved by the famous company. It’s a quarter yet to record but this has been made possible by the huge sales of low-end smartphones, while the Galaxy S4 sold less than expected . In addition, market analysts say they are concerned about the company’s ability to overcome in the future increasingly fierce competition.

Into The operating profits of the house South Korea for the last quarter (which runs from July to September) amounted to about 9.56 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 7% compared to the previous three months and a whopping 26% compared to the same period last year. Samsung also announced total revenue of about 55.59 billion dollars, and both figures represent new records for the company.

Into The largest source of income comes from IT and mobile division of Samsung, which has generated profits of $ 6.3 billion, it is worth noting that this growth is mainly attributed to the success of cheap phones of the manufacturer, which offers the public a really wide range of low-end Android smartphone, which offset the weakening of sales in the high-end segment. The real question concerns the latter in fact sales, especially those relating to the Galaxy S4.

Into The CEO of Samsung JK Shin has recently announced that the Galaxy S4 has reached 40 million units shipped globally in six months since launch, and today’s financial report indicates that the company has recorded an increase in total sales of all its smartphones 10%: there is to be noted that, as regards the Galaxy S4, the first two months since its debut it had been sold 20 million units, after four months instead of another 10 million units, while in the month of August the bill stopped at 5 million. There is thus a weakening demand for the device top of the range .

Into Despite the increase in sales, the IT division and Samsung mobile has increased its revenue by only 3% and this, combined with a growing concern for the profitability of the group in the high-end segment, has led several analysts to wonder about the future of Samsung . Kim Sung-soo LS Asset Management, for example, said to Reuters that “Samsung has done well, quickly reached after Apple in the smartphone market. But I wonder if you would be able to do better. Such as Nokia, could arrive at the peak of its market share [...]. Samsung will need to expand its sphere of action. “

Into The Galaxy S series is in fact so far managed to get a hit that would make the company a market leader, but in the future there will be a ever-growing need to create new products , they can innovate. In fact, Samsung is already there trying: it has just launched the Galaxy smartwatch Gear and recently unveiled the Galaxy Round, the world’s first smartphone with a curved display.

Galaxy Note 3 under test, here's how it's done and how it goes - Il Sole 24 Ore

Article History

Into This entry was posted on October 25, 2013 at 07:03.
The final amendment of 25 October 2013 at 14:44.

Into The first thing that strikes of Note 3 is its display: just approach it (with the same image with the same or video) to Notes II (but also to other smartphones always in Full HD) and the difference is plain to see immediately : black is black because it really deep and homogeneous brightness is excellent. Really head and shoulders above the previous generation, and many of its competitors. Not to mention that the notes 3 presents a series of improvements: the screen is also larger (5.7 inches versus 5.5) and 2.3 GHz processor is coupled to a memory of 3 GB Ram.

Into Aesthetically, the new and the old model are not very different from each other, although the edges are less rounded than the Notes II. Actually, the 3 looks a bit ‘also the first notes. The. From the construction point of view Notes 3 follows on the heels of its predecessor: the materials (lightweight, the device has a record weight of 168 grams) are, however, economic and unconvincing surface finish imitation leather with a lot of stitching done on the rigid back cover which gives access to the battery compartment and the microSD slot. Too bad because the touch surface treatment is good. Among the gems stands out connector USB 3.0 is also compatible with the classic (and mandatory) microUSB. Interesting Knox finally the function that allows you to split the use of the device functions between personal and for work in order to have two environments with different security rules. Two separate memory areas designed for the so-called “bring you own device” (BYOD). But the real novelty of Note 3 are all in software.

me up by the new version of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean that allows you to enable a number of innovative features that enhance the use of the well known S Pen, with which to take notes, draw and “capture objects” to share. With greater ease and accuracy than before. Actually, the pen we like less: is back uncomfortable and squared as that of Note “I”. To say that you never know which side to take.
Among the innovations of the user interface stands out the quick menu Air Command: just click on the button of the stylus “magic” allows users immediate access to five features management and document creation. Action Memo, Scrapbook, White Screen, S Pen Window Finder and are some of the features available.

Nokia Lumia 1520 "crushes" Samsung Galaxy Note 3: The display is ... - International Business Times Italy

Like us on Facebook

Into The market phablet , devices halfway between smartphones and tablets, you can count on a new top of the range. We are talking about the Nokia Lumia 1520 , the protagonist of the device that Nokia World, according to reports from the first who had the chance to try it, it would display a far superior to that of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 . This is demonstrated by the tests in the video viewable in top of the article. The explanation lies in the size of the panel, 6 inches in diagonal of 5.7 Lumia against the Galaxy, nor even in the resolution, Full HD for both, but in the technology of the latter.

Into The screen of Nokia is a IPS LCD features technology from Apical assertive display . Shown for the first time at IFA in Berlin, this innovative technology improves the readability of the screen in any lighting condition. And it does so thanks to a meticulous management of the contrast of each pixel of the screen, by complex algorithms, in response to the environment in which we find ourselves. A system that places its bases on iridix technology, used for years to mimic the human eye’s ability to adapt to different lighting conditions, and that f orks due to a common light sensor located on the body of the device.

All this regardless of the architecture of the processor and the operating system. Surprisingly, this increased visibility should not be at the expense of battery, thanks to continuous improvements and enhancements on which it is committed to the company that developed this technology.

Samsung: the truth about the performance of the Galaxy Note 3

Roberto Catania

Into The Galaxy Note has become great. No, do not talk about the size, those were already exuberant since the first series. No, the size of the notes now goes far beyond its measures. Arrived at his third chapter, one can safely say that the bigfoot of Samsung is to all intents and purposes a top end of the range. The proof is all in the price: € 729 . On balance most of the Samsung Galaxy S4 , until recently undisputed number one of the portfolio of the Korean house.

Into Here then is that some users begin to ask ourselves: Galaxy Note Galaxy 3 and S4 are twin brothers of different body shape or the differences are more distinct? And above all: what is the best between the two? Below we will try to compare them to learn more.

DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT
151 x 79 x 8.3 mm for 168 grams of weight (Samsung Galaxy Note 3) against 137 x 79 x 79 mm and 130 grams of weight (Samsung Galaxy S4. Looking for a good compromise between display space and dimensions the Galaxy S4 certainly will seem more balanced. More challenging the caliber of Note (larger than 10% and heavier by almost 30%): convenient if you want a surrogate portable tablet, a little ‘less if you need an object handy to keep in your pocket without any problems.

FINISHES
The plastics dominate at both ends. On the back of the Galaxy Note 3, however, we find a cover imitation leather with a lot of like-stitching: it is always made of plastic, mind you, but overall the aesthetic feeling (and also the one to the touch ) appears much more refined, as well as the original.

DISPLAY
The amount of pixels is the same ( 1920 x 1080 on both sides) but being spread on a different surface changes the relationship pixels per inch 388 ppi for the Galaxy Note 3 441 ppi for the Galaxy S4. It is, comuqnue, differences hardly visible to the naked eye, we are faced with two Super AMOLED screens of the highest category.

PROCESSOR AND RAM
Here the differences are more sensitive: the Galaxy Note 3 , in the version LTE, leaves the factory with a chipset 800 quad-core Snapdragon 2.3 GHz and 3 GB of RAM , a set of maximum respect, also higher than that of Galaxy S4 which, remember, can boast a processor 600 quad-core Snapdragon 1.9 GHz and 2 GB of RAM . If you use the phone in its basic functions (calls, messages, e-mail and internet) you may not feel the difference, but if you are used to crush a tablet on all the multimedia features (including games) then use that knowledge.

SOFTWARE
Leveraging the younger age, the Galaxy Note comes with 3 Android 4.3 preinstalled; most dated the release of the Galaxy S4 (Android 4.2 ), which, however, should return to par with the update scheduled for the next few weeks. No difference, however, with regard to the user interface that is both tried and true TouchWiz UI , with the various features as a dowry, Gesture by Air to Air View, from scrolling intelligent Smart Stay.

CAMERA
Lens 13 megapixel rear , 2-megapixel front. In terms of pure resolution cameras are equivalent. Going down, however, in the maze of settings discover some small difference in favor of Note 3. One above all: the ability to record video in 4K .

S-PEN
Here the clash is naturally unequal, since only one of the two phones (the Galaxy Note 3) has nib . Useful accessory or exercise in style (sorry, stylus)? It depends on the tune that triggers between user and accessory. Of course, Samsung is doing everything to make the user experience easier and more sensitive to the master’s hand. It should be emphasized in this sense the arrival of Air Commander , a convenient menu control half-moon, and the function that allows you to transform a written note (text or numeric) in a real input, such as a task on the calendar or a phone call.

Into Sean Gallup / Getty Images

BATTERY
The extra-large size of the Galaxy Note 3 are also being felt in terms of autonomy: being able to take advantage of a more capacious rear compartment, Samsung has been able to integrate into a giant envelope battery 3200 mAh . The advantage compared to the Galaxy S4 (where the battery stops to 2600 mAh) is approximately 25%, which means almost half a day in most operations.

CONCLUSIONS
The price difference (actually quite modest, about 30 euro) is all there: at present the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 placed at a step above its younger brother, especially in terms of performance and battery. In the evaluation, however, can not be ignored by the discourse of dimensions as the Galaxy S4 is not a device mignon, 0.7 inch difference, however, are many. The impression is that more than the price or match the technical difference will make it once again the user setup: those who prefer a compact object will choose the Galaxy S4 , but those who want to experience halfway between a 7-inch tablet and a smartphone will be directed to Notes 3 . The size, in short, they still count.
