this episode of unboxed Arabi is brought to you by ting what's up guys Lew here and today we're taking a look at the Samsung Galaxy s3 yes I know this device has been out for a while so save me from the comments down below telling me I'm late but I finally got my hands on one and so I said hey let's share the unboxing let's put together an unbox therapy style unboxing of the galaxy s3 so as you can see here this is the pebble blue coloring it is also available in white it is a fairly large device you get that sense straightaway not as big as the note 2 obviously but you do have a 4.8 inch screen here so bigger than the Galaxy Nexus that I am very very used to you've got a bunch of paperwork included in this unboxing just like any unboxing this is the most boring aspect but we do have to get through it real quick next you have a little baggie that was included by the telco trying to encourage recycling of old devices I think they're just trying to grab your sweet devices and recycle them for some extra cash so I'm going to hold onto my Galaxy Nexus in this case anyways you've also got a USB cable micro USB on one end for charging the device you've got a set of earbuds that's included and these are an in the ear style earbud with removable tips you've also got a microphone and volume up and down rocker on your little remote control there that comes with the earbuds since the earbuds are in in the ear style as I said before with removable tips you've got a number to choose from so you can pick the one that fits best for you there are three different options including a pre-installed option or plus a pre-installed option you've got a rather large battery as well to power up the device and keep it running you have your USB to power prong connector for charging the device from the wall so let's go ahead and take a closer look at the actual smartphone you can see the front features your speaker as well as your ambient light sensors your forward facing camera down on the bottom of the front portion you have your home button which is a physical home button followed by a couple of capacitive keys that reside down there as well the back of the device is where you'll find your rear-facing 8 megapixel camera LED flash and rear-facing microphone on the top you'll see your headphone jack as well as a noise cancellation mic there's another microphone on the bottom of course as well as your micro USB port for charging the device the left-hand side has your volume rocker the right-hand side has your power switch that pretty much covers the physical characteristics of the device I'm going to go ahead and boot it up as well as do the little installation process but I'm not going to make you guys sit through that I'll go ahead and jump right to the interface as you can tell you've got samsung's trademark UI here you've got their TouchWiz experience though I must say it is faster than the last TouchWiz device I used obviously that's because this is a much faster device from a hardware perspective I'll go ahead and you know jump into the Beast feed comm that's my blog if you guys haven't checked it out yet once again the beast feed comm and as you can see it loads it up real quick it's not a very heavy site my site but as you can tell scrolling is super slick super fast very impressive actually at first glance I'm going to go ahead and compare this device physically to the Galaxy Nexus but first a message from today's sponsor ting is a new mobile phone service provider offering up major savings over the other guys if you're currently operating a smartphone on one of the traditional carriers I'm sorry to break it to you but you're paying too much ting is straight up and straight forward you only pay for what you use whether we're talking minutes megabytes or messages you're not going to be surprised by crazy overage fees at the end of the month they're not going to try and hit you there these guys are honest if you use more than you expected you just get bumped up to the next tier to the next plan instead of getting those nasty surprises and if you happen to use less well that's even better because then you're going to get credited back for what you didn't use you're never going to miss out you're never going to overpay their online interface for viewing your cell phone bill is has got to be the easiest to understand that I've ever seen there are no surprises with ping anyways if you guys head over right now to unbox therapy ting comm you're going to get $50 off your device purchase so definitely head over there and check out their devices they've got some beauties like the galaxy s3 to check out so don't miss out and I'll see you guys over on ting unbox therapy komm alright so here's a closer look at the capacitive touch buttons on the s3 they pop up only when necessary and then fade away when not in use and they're on either side of the physical home button so this is going to take a little getting used to coming from a Galaxy Nexus in which all of the buttons are software based and they actually pop up right on the screen so here is my Galaxy Nexus up against the s3 as you can see they're both fairly large devices with the s3 being a little bit larger with that bigger 4.8 inch screen and from a side perspective the s3 is also slightly thinner if you guys would like to see a greater in depth comparison of these two devices definitely leave a thumbs up down below and I'll get around to it thanks as always for watching and I'll catch you guys on the next video all right later
