FEAUTURES:
The features of this classy phone, truly, stand out. Firstly there's S Voice, and it's a voice recognition service - after Siri's heart - designed by Vlingo.
The Smart Stay feature utilizes the front-facing camera to, periodically, check if it can recognize a pair of eyes looking at it; but if not, it switches the screen off to save power.
Next in line is Smart Call. By raising the phone to your ear from your contact details screen, this feature will dial a contact's number for you.
And, perhaps, the most gimmicky of all is the Social Tag. This feature will match faces in photographs with your contacts' photos, by use of facial recognition. If the profile photo isn't of a witty poster or a dog, the phone will show the contact's latest status update. Which is why it'll be easy to call or, even, message them.
Samsung is, certainly, not far short of the mark. There is the contactless technology, NFC, that has, yet, to find widespread use. But, to transfer contacts between Android handsets that are compatible, the NFC is, quite, handy.
GAME HUB / MUSIC HUB / VIDEO HUB: REMARKABLE!!!
CAMERA: 8 megapixel camera. Delivers powerful results. You can, also, capture full HD 1080p videos.
The front camera has a 2 megapixel sensor. This captures 720p videos, simultaneously, as taking still pictures.
BATTERY: This battery doesn't conk out quickly. It can, thus, go on and on unlike, in the past, when some Android phones used to conk out after lunch.
