Samsung Galaxy S3
When Galaxy S3 was launched with a ‘huge’ 4.8 HD Super AMOLED display it seemed like an old design. But its specs, feature and light feel made people fall in love with it. The smart-phone comes with oe=ne of the most powerful processors ever installed in a smart-phone. It comes with 1.4GHz quad core Exynos SoC . Despite the fact that though Galaxy S3’s camera was not 12 MP camera as many had thought and came with merely 8MP, it has a new BIS sensor for low light shooting, which really helps to take fantastic shots in low light situations, – with no flash. Apart from these obvious changes, sticking to the 8MP camera makes everything seems quite normal.

Apple iPhone 5
Apple’s latest iteration of iPhone being called iPhone 5 is a superb smart-phone that is being sold like hot-cake since its launch less than two months ago. Everyone is unanimous that Apple’s new iPhone 5 looks great and its 4 inch display isn’t really too big. The new machine has speedier innards, thanks to a new A6 chip designed by Apple. The chip is twice as fast in terms of CPU and graphics, he said. “Not only is it a jump forward in performance, it’s 22 percent smaller.” The roomier screen of the iPhone 5, which has 40 percent more colour saturation, can be used by apps makers to provide most accurate display in the industry. Its width is just right for navigating with one’s thumb, Schiller said, to make it easy to send text messages, swipe through pages and browse the Web. Thanks to iOS 6 it offers many improvements and while it may not have some of the latest technologies, such as NFC or wireless charging, it does so many things right that it has to be considered one of the top smartphones available in the market right now.

HTC 8X
HTC 8X is as good if not better than Nokia Lumia 920. Giving the competitor a run for its money, the HTC One X is a smartphone that goes beyond user expectations. The HTC 8X is HTC’s attempt at the Windows platform. The 8X has got good reviews, and many have praised it for its simplicity and smaller and lighter profile. The 8X is lighter and slightly thinner than Lumia 920. Even though it has none of the many enhancements that come with the 920, it is a very capable phone with top line specs, a great screen and superb construction. The 4.3-inch Super LCD 2 looks great with 720×1280 pixel resolution display. The Taiwanese Windows Phone 8 handset comes with many top features including Beats Audio with an additional amp on the headphone jack for the ultimate audio experience. I never thought much about front-facing cameras until my wife and daughters started to take lots of self-portraits to include on Facebook. HTC provides a wide angle 2.1 megapixel front-facing camera besides 8 mega pixel rear camera. So the smart-phone market is brimming with enthusiasm and competition that is certainly great for gadget fans.
