Samsung has disabled an advanced search function in an update to the international version of its flagship Galaxy S3 smartphone, following a patent dispute with Apple.

That's what i thought at first but i don't like the black front of the white version, makes it look bigger than it actually is.
Found a cool by Freddiew on YouTube, filmed entirely by Galaxy S3, quality is pretty damn good I think:

For once i was glad my phone is operator branded. Ive only had one update since i bought the phone and it didnt remove functionality.
Which is also why im glad if Apple do get their way, it'll take my operator an eternity to released their branded updates.
Then, after a year when its passed its guarantee i'll just debrand it and install a different modded ROM.

Night shots ive not taken a single one at all. Ive not taken many pictures at all with my SGS3. From the ones i have, ive been happy but not impressed like i would if the picture was taken with my N8. A recent trip to Northern Ireland proved that.

Taken whilst shooting the same scene in 1080p with the dual shutter button. As you can see, the sky and colours on the marching orangemen get a bit washed out where the N8 took them in much better quality. I didnt take shots to compare however.
The LED of the phone is probably the brightest of any LED ive seen on any phone. Its blinding and does a good job of keeping people well lit for family shots but still no xenon beater.
The 1080p video recording is brilliant, but the overall stereo sound quality isnt on par with my Nokia N8's.

Oh almost forgot, my girlfriend bless her isnt the best of taking pictures but the S3 is much better than her old Samsung Wave, so she got these rather nice shots recently even if in the first the sea isnt fully horizontal

My Nokia N8 which i also used in this nice part of Northern Ireland took much better images however.

Still worthwhile though imo.
