The Samsung Galaxy S3 Tops Smartphone Sales Charts

The Galaxy S3 was launched a few weeks ago, after several months of speculation and rumours regarding its specification list. Its predecessor and former Samsung flagship, the Galaxy S2 is amongst the most successful Android phones thus far, selling more than 40 million units. The Galaxy S3 appears set to replicate that success if preliminary sales numbers are anything to go by.

In actual fact, it has been reported that Samsung are finding it difficult to keep up with high demand and their production facilities and suppliers are having to work tirelessly to keep up with orders placed. If pre-orders are anything to go by, don't be surprised if the Galaxy S3 to prove every bit as, or even more popular than its predecessor.

This is Samsung’s custom Android user interface which offers additional customization opportunities, more downloadable content as well as an alternative appearance to the stock Android interface. Of course, the device also provides the ability to download apps from Google Play. The Samsung Galaxy S3 adds a variety of impressive additional features, including S-Voice, a voice activated personal assistant much like Apple’s Siri, along with a number of gesture activated functions including Smart Stay.
