Black Samsung Galaxy S3

The black Samsung Galaxy S3 16GB variant is now available for pre-order in the UK, providing a new color choice for prospective buyers. Just a month back, the company had introduced the handset dipped in garnet red specifically for AT&T users in the US. Needless to say, various more shades are anticipated to surface over time.

Being SIM-free and not tied to any carrier subscription, the handset could pose as a good option for those who don’t want to confine themselves to a two-year long commitment. As Ubergizmo points out, this smartphone will share all the features seen in the other two choices.

Talking about the S3, it touts a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED Plus capacitive touchscreen that dominates the front panel. Placed besides the display is a 2MP front-facing camera which can be employed for video conferencing. On the flip side, there is an 8MP snapper with LED flash that is capable of delivering video recording in full HD quality.

Based on the Ice Cream Sandwich platform, the smartphone draws fuel from a quad core Exynos processor that is clocked at 1.4GHz. 1GB of RAM is incorporated within the device to assist the CPU in multitasking. Apart from S Voice and S Beam, it tags along highlights such as Smart stay and Smart alert for an enhanced user experience. The handset also supports Bluetooth 4.0 for extended connectivity.

The black Samsung Galaxy S3 price in the UK via MobileFun stands at £499.95 (approx. Rs. 43,690) for the 16GB variant. Prospective buyers can expect it to ship within the next 4 to 6 weeks of order.
