Samsung Galaxy SII V/s SIII - comparison & features


There has been much speculation about the launch of Samsung Galaxy SIII, the successor of Galaxy SII. Geeks are hoping high that the new angel in the Android Galaxy series will be the most outperforming phone in the mobi-world.

Let’s known about the revolutionary features of S III and have a comparison with the predecessor S II:


Samsung Galaxy S III
Samsung Galaxy S II
 4.8-inch SAMOLED HD display (1280 x 720)
·         4.3 inch Super AMOLED Plus(800 x 480)
8.6 mm thickness
·         8.49 mm sleek
1.4GHz Quad-core Exynos processor 
·          1.2GHz dual-core processor

·         8MP
 64GB variant will also be available
·         Comes with 16GB and 32GB 
Li-Ion 2100 mAh battery
·         Li-Ion 1650 mAh

Though Samsung Galaxy S III will have higher resolution of 1280 x 720, which is higher than Galaxy S II, the quality of display may not impress users. It may be due to absence of AMOLED Plus display in the new S-series phone.  Li-Ion 2100 mAh battery of Samsung Galaxy S III may leave users bereft as the phone features larger display and quad-core processor – power consuming factors.

However, its goodliness and novel features will make it smartest of the Smartphones.

Samsung Galaxy S III is expected to be launched in Indian market in June, 2012.

If you are planning to buy a new phone, change your thought and wait of smartest of the smartphone - the Samsung Galaxy S III!

Poor Micromax X640

No Mobile tracker in Micromax X640 

Existing competitors:
With 3.5 inch display and 3.2MP camera, the sibling Micromax X 660 and Spice FLOMe M-6868n (a bit higher in price) can attract customers.

Micromax X560 is already available to customers featuring similar specification at lower price.

Prices a bit higher and Karbonn A1 with 3G support, 3.2MP camera, Android OS may be more alluring to buyers. They will be happy to get an Android phone and can compromise with screen size. Karbonn A1 features 2.7 inch display.

Spice Cappuccino M-6700 can also come in the mind of buyers while selecting phone as it has a better camera (3.2MP) and almost same screen size (3.14 inch). To let Micromax go down, Spice is offer customers Cappuccino for Rs 30155 only!


Some other players in the race are Spice FLO M-6800 ( 3.2MP camera but 3.1 inch display), Spice Mi-270 (Android OS but 2.8 inch display).

Micromax M2, the dual-SIM music phone with its killer iPod-like look and great music features has made a place in the heart of every youth. Its affordable price lets music lovers get a music monster in pocket to enjoy music on-the-go!

Salutary side:
It comes with a dome headset to lets users rock-n-roll on favorite music without the interference of background noise. The dome shaped headset with over-the-head wearing style is comfortable for long time use.

Resembling close to a music player, Micromax M2 tempts music lovers! To satisfy appetite of such users, it has dedicated music keys to access all controls. 

Buit in Yamaha audio amplifier and SRS WOW HD for consuming each beat of music with taste. 
Micromax M2 comes with touch wheel, a unique way to navigate phone features.

Facts making it unacceptable: 
2 inch display is too small to have AV music fun. Users cannot watch videos with zeal on Micromax M2.

The inability to expand memory can restrict you from building a great music library in your phone.

 The phone should be engineered with expandable memory slot. It comes with only 2GB internal memory. 

Low battery capacity doesn’t allow users for extensive use of phone without charging. Users are forced to charge phone again and again. 

Message to buyers: 
Considering its price, Micromax M2 is a good option in this segment,
