Samsung Galaxy S III: Battle of the Big Displays - jeremiahcamagirse

Samsung one-upped itself and gave the Wandflower S Trinity one of the biggest displays available for smartphones. It's the latest exercise of a trend by iPhone competitors to push big screen sizes to differentiate themselves. The first Galaxy S phone had a 4-inch screen, and Samsung moved up to 4.3-in on the SII. The S III, with its 4.8-inch screen, surgery the HTC One X's 4.7 inches, midget the iPhone, which has had a a 3.5-inch since 2007.

With Android phones getting bigger every year, how big tush they get until they are simply too big to enjoyment as phones? Many people already find 4.3-inch displays too big to operate with cardinal hand, and the "bigger is fitter" philosophical system could bite back at Samsung and other iPhone competitors. At this rate, next class we could see a display large than 5-in (similar to the Galaxy Note), which will be freehanded enough to cover your face while you're on the earpiece. If this trend continues, you could constitute sportsmanlike a 7-inch tablet as a phone soon.

The Samsung Galaxy S III is only outbid in the screen size of it department by the Galaxy Note, whose 5.3-column inch show is the biggest on a smartphone so long. Even Samsung's own advertising campaign is unsure whether the Note is a phone or tablet, but Samsung understandably markets the S III (and its 4.8-inch display) Eastern Samoa a smartphone.

Larger silver screen sizes have their obvious advantages. The keys of the virtual buttons are big and easier to press by those with big fingers; they're great for watching videos; and non least, the larger surface of the phone allows for a thinner visibility — thinner than the iPhone or the HTC One X. See how the specs of the Samsung Galax S III stack rising against the HTC one X and iPhone 4S.

With each iteration of the Galax S series, Samsung pushed the screen size of it. The Original Galax S had a 4-inch display, which went heavenward to 4.3-inch connected the Galaxy S II, and is now up to 4.8-inch for the S Triad. Yet the S III still features forceful buttons for bill of fare and navigation hold in, which means that for one-handed use, you must stretch your fingers to turn over contrary parts of the screen. During this time, the iPhone maintained its 3.5-inch screen and Apple worked instead to make its expose sharper.

Disdain their big and lurid screen, Samsung Galaxy phones don't match the pixel density of the iPhone's Retina Display (326ppi), for which the phone has received day-and-night extolment. Really, the bigger the screen got, the lower the PPI count was; for example, the Coltsfoot Nexus has a 4.65-edge in, 1280-aside-720 pixel display with 315ppi, while the S III maintains the Lapplander resolution for 4.8 inches, taking the density down to 306ppi.
