We Look Around Flipboard On The New Samsung Galaxy S3

Social Networking is currently big business and modern smartphones are the perfect medium to access this type of content thanks to their large screens and excellent connectivity options. The new Samsung Galaxy S3 could well be the ultimate phone for social networking and comes with an excellent piece of software installed on the device.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 comes with an application called Flipboard which has been a phenomenal success since it was launched. Originally designed for the iPad the application quickly found its way onto the iPhone and soon afterwards an Android version was released. The S3 is the first Android phone to come with the application already installed. The popularity of Flipboard is so high because in merges a number of popular social networking sites together in one place which makes reading their content a much easier affair than logging into separate applications. Facebook and Twitter both work with the app as do popular photo sharing sites such as Instagram and Flickr. In addition to this user can also select news categories that interest them and headlines from these are mixed in with the social networking updates.

One of the really impressive aspects of the Flipboard app for the Samsung Galaxy S3 is the wonderful interface that it uses. The developers have done a superb job of making it look less like a smartphone application and more like the pages of a glossy magazine, full of content that is customised to suit the user. A handful of items are displayed on each page and the next page is accessed by simply swiping your finger across the screen. The excellent connectivity options on the S3 ensure that the Flipboard applications works well at all times. When connected to a WiFi network this fastest operation speeds can be achieved but speeds are also great when connected to a cellular data network such as 3G or EDGE. It is not only the connectivity of the Galaxy S3 that is perfect for this app but also the large screen that the phone uses. This 4.8 inch AMOLED screen is much larger than many rival phones and this works well with the colourful and bold interface that is used by the software.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 and Flipboard are a perfect match for one another. The great connectivity and screen are ideal for the application while the software itself offers great social networking features that are presented on an attractive and well designed interface.
