The Samsung Galaxy S III can be wirelessly charged using a special charging pad that utilises magnetic resonance to produce a magnetic field through which electricity could be transferred.

The S III boasts a quad-core processor and employs an intelligent personal assistant – S Voice, enabling the user to verbally control different functions such as playing a song, setting the alarm, or activating driving mode. The Samsung Galaxy S III also includes certain smart features which facilitate improved human interactivity including Direct Call, the handset’s ability to recognise when a user wants to talk to somebody instead of messaging them, if they bring the phone to their head; Social Tag, a function that identifies and tags people in a photo and shares photos with them; and Pop Up Play, which allows a video and other applications to occupy the screen at the same time.
