Samsung's*just announced the newest and fastest version of its Exynos mobile processor. The 4212 is a dual-core ARM Cortex A9 clocked to 1.5GHz, built using a 32mn process that makes it 30 percent more efficient and 25 percent faster than the 4210. Last year's model was capable of many impressive feats, but its 3D abilities were*hampered by the limits*imposed by its HDMI 1.3 controller. The new boy gets version 1.4 and hence the freedom to run stereoscopic imagery at an impressive 70fps. The chips will be available in Q4 of this year, but only to "select customers" who -- we guess -- look after Mr and Mrs. Samsung's cats over the holidays. The chip comes too late for the*Galaxy S II LTE*but we can expect to see it in future superphones before too long.At the same time, the company released a 16 megapixel*CMOS sensor*designed for mobile devices. It can shoot stills at the quoted figure and is theoretically capable of 30fps video at around half that, although we're unlikely to see a device that can record 8 megapixel video in the near future. If you hadn't guessed, "select customers" will get their extra-polite hands on the Samsung S5K2P1 in November, other OEMs will have to wait outside, in the snow. Of course, as everyone knows, it's not about how big your megapixel count is, it's what you do with 'em*that really counts.

Seems like the prime having a 1.5ghz Exynos chip is becoming closer to reality since today is the start of Q4 2011.

It's the 32nm process that's the most exciting part about that news release. It means even if the chip was running 1.2GHz like the 4210 it would still be faster and more energy efficient. @ 1.5GHz the 4212 trades a small amount of energy efficiency for higher clock speed... none the less it's still more efficient than the 4210

No way it's happening. Too late in the phone's development cycle to swap a SoC for another which just got released to certain partners.

Thinking about a Nitro?...Compare to other 720p phones!

A prevalent question on these Nitro forums is whether or not to buy it...As compared to <whatever> phone. I think the most common comparison is with the Samsung Galaxy S2.
The problem is, the GS2 is an 800x480 resolution phone. To get an idea of why that doesn't make sense, go ahead and set your laptop's screen resolution to 800x600. How's that look to you? Now walk over to your computer and set it to 1280x800, how's that?
Not exactly a controlled and scientific comparison right? Different systems, different screens, different just about everything.
IMHO, if you're considering the Nitro and want to compare it to something?...Then there's really only 1 other phone (in the US, anyway); the HTC Rezound which has the exact same CPU/GPU chipset and 1280x720 screen (LCD though, not IPS). You could also compare with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, there's a LOT of variances there too but it's one of the only phones that also has the 1280x720 screen.
I stress the commonality of 1280x720 because not everything works properly (or even at all) when trying to display at this resolution and also there's potential draw delays to compensate. So make sure you're looking at the other phones that could share this same hurdle so you set your expectations accordingly.

good points, thanks!

To add two more 720P phones were announced at ces coming to AT&T. The Sony Xperia Ion and the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD.

@Namura: Appreciate the "cold water" treatment. might make others think twice both for flaming the P930 and the comparison to other units.
@Kindawack: prototypes/announced phones don't figure into what he is talking about, as they are not market launched yet.

Knock it off all stay on topic and stop arguing, doesn't belong on xda!!!

Only 2 720p phone on market at this time.

Yeah, I wonder about the validity of their info as well. Considering the Samsung Note LTE for AT&T was only announced yesterday at CES...With the only confirms being 1.5GHz Qualcomm chipset (but no verification as to which model) and availability as "in the coming months"...Whereas that pdadb shows it as releasing in Feb and has the same APQ8060 chip as our Nitro.

man, i am way past waiting for the next kick ass phone to be released. I had been waiting since the droid bionic announcement (the 1st one ;-0) prior to getting this nitro.
not playing the *let's give it another month and see what's released* game no mo!
!

Yup, I agree. I spent 5 months waiting for nothing..... as each day passes I'm more and more pleased with the Nitro.

I am constantly hoping for a CWM breakthrough for our phone but then I remember that I am actually 100% satisfied with my rooted, debloated, blue icon and battery mod, go launcher ex Nitro, then I don't worry about CWM as much.

Same here. As long I am rooted, debloated, custom launcher (zean) and sim unlocked I am good. Custom roms would nice but a lot of time, they are a pain to keep up.

I know benchmarks dont mean squat, but I am surprised how Nitro HD fairs well in any 3D benchmarks especially with 720p screen and sub-optimised soft. See attached Antutu benchmark. Barely behind Galaxy Nexus with ICS.
I just fired up Shadowgun and it does drop a frame here and there. No Tegra afterall but 4.5 inch 720p is looking better than I remember playing on Atrix 4G.

LMAO
IPS is just one type of LCD,
IPS, MVA, PVA, ASV are all good screen types,
the only bad screen is TN, which is never used on high end android devices.
AMOLED sucks IMO, over saturated, and your vision killer. Dont even mention most of the AMOLED on the market is pentile display.

Galaxy S III CPU details leaked (Exynos 5)

This seems to align with my earlier statements that the GSIII will more likely be a dual-core CPU at 2-2.5Ghz rather than a quad-core at 1-1.5Ghz.

Quote taken from the article
Did the murmurings about a quad-core Galaxy S III this morning leave you feeling a bit... meh? We don't blame you. Sure, four cores and integrated LTE sounds great but (and this is a big "but"), Cortex-A9 is old hat. What we really want to hear about are those upcoming Cortex-A15 chips. Well, this should get your blood flowing -- a slide has leaked, allegedly loaded with detailed Exynos 5 specs. Looks like initial entrants will have a pair of A15 cores running at 2GHz, backed up by a quad-core Mali T-604 MP4 GPU. All of that will supposedly be built with Samsung's new 32nm High-K Metal Gate process. We've been unable to independently verify these details, but they are in line with what we've been led to expect. Still, until some Sammy PR comes down the pipeline we're taking everything with a grain of salt.

i too would prefer the enhanced dual core over the quadcore at 1.5 each core. Who needs quadcore on their phones when dualcore hasnt even been fully optimized yet, ya they say it helps with battery drain but they said that about dual core as well on the g2x which has extremely terrible battery life.
I still love my g2x for its incredible display and nvidia gpu but this epic touch 4g just pwned it lol

I don't know the intricacies of the architecture, but it's made with (I believe) a 32nm die instead of the 45nm Cortex-A9s, which usually means less power consumption and more performance. There are also new instructions supported by the CPU which allow it to perform tasks more efficiently. Other than that, I don't quite know. But it's smaller and faster. The A15s are going to blow all A9-based chips out of the water. I'm interested to see how the new A15s stand up against the S4 Krait processors from Qualcomm. That thing got 218mflops in Linpack... nearly shat my pants.
If this is real and Sammy puts it in the SGS3 you can bet your sweet ass it's going to be the fastest phone ever made.

I think there are gonna be two variants one a15 dula core 2ghz and other quadcore a9.
What would ppl choose battery or performance?

Hmmm I don't think this is slated for the GSIII, but rather Samsung's 2013 device lineup. The GSIII is expected to run a quad A9 SoC.

Hey, how about this for something. Maybe there is going to be multiple variations of the SGSIII that will each satisfy the rumors? Just a thought lol

Because more cores doesn't always mean better.

Or how about forget all the rumors and we just wait till Samsung tells the world about it. It might not even really be ready yet.

The world would be a boring place without rumors. If you don't like them don't comment on them.
A quad-core Cortex-A9 GS3 would make me a sad panda. There are going to be a lot of kickass A15 and Krait-based phones out this year. If Sammy goes with A9 it's going to lose its competitive edge.

All I know is that I don't want it to be called the within on sprint

New SGSIII Rumor - Super Amoled HD PLUS (non-Pentile) screen

Hot off the rumorpress: http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/04/12/r...4-6-inch-super-amoled-hd-plus-release-in-may/
319 ppi. That puts ppi right there with the iPhone 4S, but on a much larger AMOLED display. If the form factor is sexy, and the rest of the specs line up right, I'm going to have a hard time not throwing my wallet at this device.

I am a huge fan of the galaxy series. Once I got the Mesmerize and now the Epic 4G Touch I have to say I will be a galaxy customer for a long while. All I can say is hopefully it drops soon enough for the price to drop a little but they time my upgrade comes. Unemployment sucks. But based on Sammy's past history I have to believe the GS III will be nothing less then Epic on many levels.

With all of these rumored specs that seem to blow any current phone away... I am so happy my upgrade is in the next few months. Although the price will most likely reflect the quality, I'm prepared to sell my arm and leg for this phone

If and when I dump the S2...The only reasons will be for LTE and Quad Core which is what Ive heard the S3 is supposed to have...I like the Note but the screen is a little too big...Had it in my hand in Best Buy Mobile...But I think Id stick to the 4.7 hopefully what the S3 will have... and stay with Sprint for the Unlimited...

What? only 4.6 inches? I rather get the evo 4g LTE.

Ok, a bit confused. I was pretty sure I read an article that said we won't see quad core phones til 2013? Due to LTE compatibility.

While the exact Exynos 4412 specs are yet to be announced, it is estimated that the new SoC from Samsung will be built using the 32nm manufacturing process and will feature a quad-core processor based on the ARM Cortex A9 (the same architecture behind the Tegra 3 CPU, but Nvidia uses a 40nm process) clocked somewhere between 1.5 – 1.8 GHz. As for the GPU, rumors claim that the Exynos 4412 SoC will feature an ARM Mali-T604. In addition, the 4412 will also feature integrated LTE and WCDMA radios. Please keep in mind that these are only rumored specs.

Bolded the part that is relevant to your question. Nothing is concrete yet, but the Exynos 4412 rumored to be going into the SGSIII may be the first quad core LTE compatible SoC.

not only do samsung make their own screen, they also make it for apple. apple is samsung's second largest customer after HP

The only thing I wish my E4GT had differently is a higher resolution screen. It's going to be awhile before any device makes me want to upgrade. Though, this is pretty lust worthy.

That sold my mother in law. She was going to get the SGSII from NTT DoCoMo until her daughter beat her to it. I told her to hold off a few more months to wait for this phone - glad I did. Now hopefully we'll see this to Sprint and my MVNO sometime next year, right around the time that we're eligible for upgrades! (I can wait a year, 4G isn't bad in Chi-town!)

I read something about Samsung doing a worldwide announcement for all markets, does that mean it'll be available for US carriers (Sprint specifically) when everyone else in the world gets it? I'd hate for the rest of the world to get it in say June and the US gets it a few months later like with the SG2.

I wouldn't hold your breath. Unless both Samsung and the carriers learned from last year and they're getting the carrier differentiation done now with less hang ups. I'm not in a massive hurry though. I still dig my E4GT, and the later the GSIII is released the further along Sprint's LTE rollout will be.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

At least the density of the new display will compete with the EVO LTE screen.

With the way they are marketing it, I hope that they release the US versions around the same time. I have a feeling samsung is learning, and is pushing for more unified releases. They know that the sgs2 dominated the smart phone market, so I would assume they also know the sgs3 will attract just as many, if not more customers. Especially with this much hype, and there own event to announce it. I would expect they would be smart enough to get it on as many carriers as they can, as soon as possible.

I always felt it was stupid that theres different release dates for phones based on where you live. And the fact that we were always last made it worst. If they start releasing their phones at once worldwide i think that'll be a good move and every other manufacturer will probably follow in the same direction. At least I hope. There's nothing worse then wanting a phone that's available in another country and not urs..

The Galaxy S III is Samsung's new flagship smartphone and it's finally broken cover at the company's stand-alone Mobile Unpacked event here in London. With a steady stream of fakes, outright leaks and even event rescheduling, Samsung's claimed almost crazy levels of interest for its new smartphone. Weighing in at 133g (4.7 ounces) and whittled to 8.6mm at its thickest, the rounded-off design has more than a little bit in common with its Galaxy Nexus cousin. Of course, it's Samsung's new 1.4GHz Exynos 4 Quad processor doing the legwork, and there's 1GB of RAM to help it out. The display has been bumped up in size to a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED affair, sporting a 1280 x 720 pixel count. Happy snappers will have an 8-megapixel rear shooter to play with, and a 1.9-megapixel eye on the front will take care of those video calls. If you were wondering about radios, it's launching with HSPA+, but there's an LTE version in the cards. As for the interface, it's TouchWiz on top of Android 4.0 again, and there's new gesture functions to help you get around. So, there it is, the phone we've all been waiting for (until the next one) but that's not all, be sure to check our hands-on coverage and additional features for the in-depth breakdown.

Looking sexy but I gotta wait like another year, so Galaxy S IV here I come! Our galaxy s2's can stand the test of time though

First!!
Had to be that guy for once ;]
ALSO, I wish it had the 12mp shooter, but we will see what GSIII is for the states, namely Sprint.

I'll change my screen density to 160. Now I got SIII.

Anyone know the battery mAh yet? Interesting device, looks like it's only got a home button now? Unless it pulled an international SGSII and has the menu and back button on the sides. Can't tell.

Really?
So far it looks meh.

The TW ICS status bar is pretty bad looking, hardly a difference from Gingerbread. They would've gotten me more excited with an AOSP style status bar, but I guess that's something I'll have to do, myself.

So far, HTC One X us version/ Evo 3g lte looks better -
better screen, better camera.
The only thing this phone still has is samsung hardware accelerated apps + possible faster cpu/gpu.

I was actually looking forward to this, but am a bit underwhelmed, its just meh to me for some reason lol.
I don't think its that much of an upgrade from our phone to the SGIII.

It'll end up being a hit regardless because it's dubbed "quad core".

dont get me wrong im not saying ill never own one but i wont be all waiting like a school girl 6 months for it ..... Ill pickup the EVO LTE first

I'll be waiting for the final product before I decide but I'm definitely going to skip the HTC since my current phone still makes me happy.
