In addition to the accessories that Samsung has prepared for the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S3 at the end of this month of May, the company has taken pains to include interesting functions. What's more, the slogan that reads on the manufacturer's website next to the name of the terminal is the following: " Design for humans " or designed for humans in English. This gives clues of what to expect from Samsung's new flagship mobile.
First of all, we will talk about the possibility of keeping the screen always on and showing the same brightness at all times thanks to its new function baptized under the name of Smart Stay. This works in conjunction with the front camera - with a two mega-pixel resolution sensor - and, while the user is looking at the screen, the camera will register the presence and keep it active at all times.
On the other hand there is the S Beam function. This new functionality derives from what in Android 4.0 is known under the name of Android Beam and its main mission is to share content. How does it work? It is very simple. S Beam of the Samsung Galaxy S3 makes use of two types of wireless connections: NFC ( Near Field Communication ) and WiFi Direct. That is, the user will be able to pair two compatible mobiles with the first technology and transfer the files with the second. An example would be being able to transfer a file weighing 10 MB in just two seconds. Nothing to do with the times that are achieved with bluetooth technology.
Another of the functions that will surely attract the attention of the future user is what they have called S-Voice. This will take care of making all the voice commands of the customer come true; It could be said that it is the personal assistant of the Samsung Galaxy S3. Calls can be answered; compose a text message; set the alarm; or tell the camera to take a photo or record a video. And all this without having to touch the terminal screen. S-Voice recognizes different languages. And Spanish is one of them.
Direct Call is how they called the next function. Here comes into play the possibility that the mobile phone calls a contact directly without having to search the phonebook. How does it work? If the user is sending short text messages (SMS) and decides to call him at a time during the written conversation, he will only have to wear the Samsung Galaxy S3 to his ear. He alone, and thanks to his proximity sensors, will be in charge of dialing the phone number.
Let's put ourselves in situation: you have a good time with the Samsung Galaxy S3 in hand, but after a while you decide to leave it on the table. In short, the terminal is lost sight of and it is impossible to know if calls, messages or emails have been received. Well, Samsung Galaxy S3 will be smart again and will remember the last time it was in the hands of the customer. And to warn of new events —if there are any—, once the terminal is picked up again, it only warns using a vibrating alert. This feature has been dubbed Smart Alert.
The social section is also very present in the Samsung Galaxy S3. And it is that sharing photos or videos more quickly with contacts, is quite an achievement. This function has been dubbed the Social Tag. Samsung's flagship mobile - using facial recognition - is capable of tagging the people who appear in the photos and linking them to their profiles on social networks. It should be noted that the contacts must be registered in the phonebook. On the other hand, there is also the Buddy Photo Share function that allows you to share the photos with the people who appear in the snapshots. Again thanks to facial recognition.
Finally there are the functions to share audiovisual material. First of all, there is what they have called AllShare Cast, which allows the user to connect - without cables - the Samsung Galaxy S3 to a larger screen by mirroring or duplicating the smartphone screen on a larger one. This is compatible with videos, photographs, and even video games, transforming the terminal in the latter case into the command.
Second would be the AllShare Cast Play function. This allows, making use of WiFi Direct technologies or known as DLNA, to be able to access the information stored in the mobile from the same WiFi network and being able to access it from different computers.
