Samsung Galaxy S3 top 3 key Problems

The problems with Samsung Galaxy S3 can be listed as follows

Physical make of this phone

You must have heard of the saying ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’. This holds good for Samsung Galaxy S3 as well. If physical appearance of the phone is your priority, you will be in for a real surprise. The back of this phone has a glossy finish. This is something you will not want in your high end mobile phone. What adds on to the worry is that, this phone looks like it is made of cheap plastic. Going by its looks, a mobile illiterate can easily mistake this phone for a budget phone. This phone comes in blue and white colours. Critics argue that no colour is nice enough to beat the good old black. Samsung Galaxy S3 is a high end phone. However, the looks and the make don’t live up to the expectations. Overall the physical make of this phone is disappointing.

Built too big for a phone

If for you size does not matter, you will accept this phone for the way it is. However, some users are apprehensive about the size as Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone is too big a phone. The screen of this phone measures 4.8 inches diagonally. Some critics argue that this phone’s screen size is as big as the size of a tablet PC. By official standards the size of a tablet’s screen measures about 5 inches. The screen size of this phone makes it look gigantic and this phone feels huge to hold.

Battery issues

One issue that a majority of users complain about is the performance of the battery of this phone. You will expect the battery of your high end phone to be great right? A majority of users complain that this phone uses up too much of battery when in the standby mode. One of the ways you can save battery on your Samsung Galaxy S3 phone is by turning off all the aspects that make it a smartphone. You can turn off the Wi-Fi, screen brightness, and disable notifications and location services. This will help your battery to last longer than it normally does.

The battery of this phone is not up to the mark. The reason why this phone’s battery drains pretty fast is because the drain value in the framework-res.apk has wrongly been set to 34 mA. Ideally it should have been set to 3.4 mA.  This is why Samsung Galaxy’s S3 battery performance looses out to its competitors like HTC and Apple.

There are a couple of users who have complains about this phone charging intermittently when plugged in to a power socket. One user complains that his Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone didn’t charge started charging only after few hours of plugging it into the power socket. To resolve this issue, another user recommended turning off the smartphone, charging it to full and then turn it back on.  If you get your hands on a high end smartphone and its battery does not perform as expected, it will leave you disappointed for sure.

Overall, considering its advantages over the few issues it has, Samsung Galaxy S3 is worth buying as there are workarounds to resolve these issues.
