Samsung Electronics Co . has recently announced the latest Samsung Galaxy S3 that will have a high-definition touch screen that's nearly twice the size of the iPhone , while being thinner and lighter than Apple's phone.
The S III screen has a 4.8-inch screen. Meanwhile, the iPhone screen has stayed the same size, at 3.5 inches, but the recent models pack more pixels into the screen, for a sharper display.
The Galaxy line has emerged as the biggest competitor to the iPhone. The Galaxy S III will go on sale in Europe on May 29 and in the US this summer. The Korean company showed off the phone on Thursday at an event in London.
Samsung said the phone will go on sale in 145 countries with 296 phone companies, making it the company's biggest launch so far.
Samsung Galaxy S3 will run Google Inc.'s Android software. The processor, or "brains" of the device, will be upgraded to include four computing cores. The iPhone and most other high-end phones are "dual-core," but there are some quad-core devices on sale already.
The added computing power will be put to use in the S III's expanded voice-command features. When the phone screen is off, owners will be able to "wake" it up by saying "Hi, Galaxy." They can then give further spoken commands. When Apple launched the iPhone 4S last year, it also made advances in voice recognition a central selling point.
In US, Japan and Korea, the phone will use fourth-generation, or 4G, networks for faster data downloads.
