Verizon Galaxy S3 Release Date: June 2012

**Update May 15 – The Galaxy S3 manual leaked > Galaxy S3 manual **

The Galaxy S3 is coming to Verizon and Samsung is bringing their freaking A game with a 4.8″ screen beast that will fit perfect in your manly hands. It’s 2012 so you gotta have 2012 specs all the way around if you want to be the top smart phone… besides, who knows what Apple will bring in the fall for the iPhone 5 (besides an obviously faster processor).

Lets quickly list some of the most impressive Galaxy S3 features

• S Voice
• S Beam
• SmartStay
• Pop up play- picture in picture – watch video while running other apps
• 4.8″ Super AMOLED Plus HD Display at 720p - 309ppi pixel density
• 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Processor (possibly the quad-core Exynos processor)
• Android 4.04
• 8MP camera, 24 fps, face detection + 1080p video camera + Burst mode
• NFC Chip
• LTE
• Bluetooth 4

What’s the big deal with the Galaxy S3? Quad-core or dual-core?

It’s got a quad-core processor…well, at this time it looks like only the overseas version and those dorks at Tmobile (because of  HSPA+) will be getting the quad-core S3.  However don’t get depressed because the Verizon version will be sporting the amazingly fast Snapdragon S4 1.5GHz processor. Checkout this leaked NenaMark2 results showing the Verizon S3 dualcore.

Galaxy S3 Camera

Awe man it’s only a 8MP!?! Listen, 8MP is plenty of megapixals you nerd. The camera on the Galaxy S3 is awesome and brings some impressive features.  How about the ability to shoot 3 shots per second manually and you can shoot 6 per second with burst mode up to a whopping 20 in a row!  Then you can pick the best shot out of the ridiculous amount of pictures you just took to make sure that everybody has their darn eyes open.

While you’re shooting the beautiful 1080p video you can take snapshots too which is very useful.

Facial recognition mode? Check
HDR? Check
Smile shot? Check (not sure what the hell this is though)
Panorama? Check
20 shot burst mode? Check
Take pictures while shooting video? Check!

Samsung Galaxy S3 Screen – 4.8″…only for men

Bottom line, it’s a big 4.8″ beautiful 720p screen that will look great…end of story.

If you’re mad that the Galaxy S3 screen is a PenTile AMOLED and not a RGB or some other BS then you’re a huge dork.  Guess what, the S3 screen will look great so shut up. Yes, if you hold it up 3″ away from your face and carefully look at it you might be able to see some pixels if you look very hard, big deal.

Galaxy S3 Pop up play

Yep, it’s picture in picture on your phone. It’s basically like your desktop computer…you can move the video window around OVER any other apps. Type an email or text  or surf the web on that 4.8″ screen while you’re watching game of thrones.

Galaxy S3 S Beam

Basically this is a feature that lets you wirelessly send files from one S3 to another quickly. Just put the phones back to back and press the button on screen and beam!

Galaxy S3 S Voice

Basically this is siri for the Galaxy S3. You can unlock your S3 with your voice, ask directions, launch apps, call your mom, type out text messages, update your facebook status and probably a ton of other cool stuff we don’t know about yet.

Galaxy S3 Smart Stay

What the heck is this? The S3 uses the front camera to read your face and tell if you’re looking at it so the screen won’t go dim if you’re reading something. Yep, that’s it.
