                2) Smart Rotation. It can also be enabled/disabled through settings.
                3) The Notification Panel is now customizable! It has a few new panels added such as multi-window, S-beam, AllShare Cast, etc.
                4) Page Buddy is here! Page Buddy creates context related pages on the home screen (an earphones page, docking page, roaming page).
                5) In your Google Account, the "Location Settings" page gets a face lift!
                6) Paper Artist from Note2 is a now available in S3.

                9) Low Light feature is also new in Camera.
                10 Camera settings get new features such as "Contextual filename" and "auto share shot". A couple of things have moved around.
                11) Gallery gets the Note 2 face lift! Looks, feels, and behaves fantastic! Smooth with different types of view modes.
                12) Video player gets a brand new capture button that lets you take photos of your screen!

                15) My Files gets check-boxes next to folders by default. Makes selection much easier.
                16) Total RAM available is 832MB.

                  Fanboys, quite the bs. You comments wont touch even the original Galaxy S, much less the GS2. As for the GS3, it's lightyears ahead of both the Lumias and the iPhones. To compare the high-end Lumias and the IOS phones, you need a low-end Android. Get a life

                        Nice, Android keeps on improving, RIM will release a new platform, now Nokia using WP8 OS. Lots of choices of smartphones which is good to us consumers. I wonder how Apple will catch up.

                                    Just did a manual update.
                                    Added options to notifications , gallery app , multi window setup these 3 are handy upgrade .

                                    The key board feels little better too .

                                    Go for the update. Worth it .
