Samsung G3812B Galaxy S3 Slim - User Reviews

  • Phone is ok, dropped from butt high and it didn't break like the other guy said. But the battery is really shit, also no custom ROM for it.

  • Very good phone. The problem is to get the battery!

  • No the phone is pathetic. It breaks from knee height. KNEE HEIGHT!!!!

  • it doesn't support it ;)

  • Wat app or wtf u have to do to get otg working

  • who else got this phone? does it have a 8GB internal storage bcuz i want to buy this phone .. correct me if im wrong ..

  • It has fm radio. Gpu gc1000 Cpu marvel pxa1088

  • IF u will put sd card of 64 gb then it will show the avaliable space 32 gb or some les ... aprox 30 gb .

  • is it available in malaysia? how much the price for this phone?

  • It's not the S3. It's a cut version.

  • For all other smartphones support up to 64 GB and this Slim, only supports 32? What happens if you put a micro sd xc 64 GB on that device?

  • Samsung galaxy was launched long time back. After that so many phone came. I am using this and can say its still amazing better than any new smartphone launched. Its equipped with so many superb features.You can check all detail here

  • only purchase s3 19300 it has all feature

  • 1Android. 2.apple 3 4 5 windows 8.1 6 blackberry

  • only purchase s3 19300 it has all feature

  • This handset has FM Radio!

  • What chipset? If it has gpu and otg, I will buy this phone. .

  • and gpu?awful camera,no radio and..... and why 139g for 4.5" with plastic material, it's close to one M7 with full of metal!!!!!!!! awful gadget

  • change the design,upgrade the specs of the phone,increase the battery life.

  • I dont understand what people want.This design though similar to other S-series,its really nice.I cant wait to own it.Just hope it will reach Kenya soon.

  • With all the comments about the need for differentiation and uniqueness in new models- give me a break people. Samsung has an overall very good line of phones with a positive market perception. Why would any manufacturer jeopardize that brand recognition to appease your childish desires. The S3, S4, S5 lines for example are more phone than probably 75% of the user customer base actually needs.

  • How does that mean the original S3 is a bad phone?

  • This phone was a waste of time to make, s3 modal is 3 years old...

  • Is conning gorilla glass ommitted on specifications or this phone doesn't have it?.If you are user pls advise

  • Nothing new! Same design and same OS version!

  • Why are samsung make the same boring design? Why dont they make WP os?? Its the best thing in the world after wp8.1 update. This android seriously looks bored in 2014.

  • smartphone cortex A9 or A7 or A5?????

  • moto g is better than this.... moto g's benchmark scores are almost equal to original s3 so this phone is a waste of time and money... i would recommend moto g...

  • Why doesn't it have a radio??? I would have definitely gone for this phone if it did :(

  • Although it cannot be denied that Samsung makes great phones, but dear dear me, on the design side somethhing must be done soon. One cannot tell them apart anymore.

  • moto x beat s3

  • Samsung must brought something new like Moto g which is great features like high performance mobiles with low price.i m waiting to compare for Samsung s3 slim with upcoming new devices.

  • all touch phones look same lol, only Nokia make diff ones.

  • Samsung is making us fools

  • same specs and same design with a different name. Samsung is confused

  • similar designs boring

  • Why are you guys ( SAMSUNG Co.) keep on doing and making a hnadset unit that is having the same specs? You just change the model,color and sizes. This is not a good catch :)

  • it is same with galaxy win pro except they downgrade the camera... well done samsung

  • win pro is better than this.... samsung needs to keep calm and reduce the no. of phones and tablets they release every year, markets are getting flooded by samsungs, thats y samsung is on the top of the market share.

  • Samsung just reached saturated point. lag of idea/innovative. reduced the spec then rename the model. next changed the color then rename again as limited edition.. Samsung too much of deceit

  • samsung get a new designer, nothing new ,same phone just change one specs and its already a new model..

  • Another place another name , this is galaxy win pro .....

  • Ya agree nothing new same design but u know y they design all phone same because easy for grip. But let's see will this phone beat moto g

  • This is budget phone bro. They launch this phone to compete with moto g. Galaxy grand 2 have tft screen which price is 22k in india.

  • Grow up sam's ......ur wasting everyones time even to review & jus to see new models...why u bringing too many models with same configs... Nothing new in this model...

  • Just a low-end phone...

  • May be Samsung has used an AMOLED display it would have been better,because all the S series are AMOLED display.It is very similar to win pro.

  • what about CPU/GPU ?

  • True bro.

  • Oh for f**k sake another Galaxy. Samsung is just diluting their own Galaxy brand. There are too many similar looking phones already. While there's nothing really bad about it, the thing is all these variations offer pretty much the same experience with the only difference being mindless specs that most people will not even care about. I know Samsung is just catering to all markets and not just the high end, but in my opinion they should just stop with all the pointless Galaxy variations and come up with a phone that truly differentiates itself from the rest of the line up.

  • not slim at all

  • In 2k14 looking at these specs and more specially screen and price tag predictably > 250$ lol . I cant stop laughing.

  • this mobile is full copy of galaxy win pro with different name....samsung are fooling people with same specification mobile with different name....s duos is copy of ace 2x ....s duos 2 is copy of galaxy ace 3....grand neo is copy of grand quattro.......

  • no 720p video recording????wht the hell is samsung doing????

  • This phone is actually the Galaxy Win Pro Is commom for Samsung to rename some phones here in Brazil to be more appealing for the public, usually renaming them to seem a variation of the top dog "S" line - as the Galaxy Core, that is beig sold as Galaxy SIII DUOS or the Galaxy Ace III being sold as Galaxy SII DUOS TV...I believe this to be absurd, since the Galaxy Win sells very well here...but, who knows.

  • Hereby am promising u people this device wl never get launch in india, its just stand along wth the list of Ace 3, win pro ,Galaxy core LTE . . . . . dont expect to get it.

  • Another stupid phone with a big name. Samsung can you explain why you guys named it after Galaxy S3 ?? Maybe for making this an overpriced phone like galaxy s2 plus.
