Jun 10, 2012 21:07 BST An Introduction To S-Voice On The New S3

The Samsung Galaxy S3 is the newest and best handset from the Korean manufacturer. The new flagship Android handset boasts a lot of cutting edge features, meaning its among the most advanced phones available today. In this post I' going to take a closer look at its S-Voice app.

What is S-Voice?

S-Voice is a built in app on the Galaxy S3 allowing users to dictate voice commands to the device, which will then apply the most appropriate native application to carry out the request. There are many different tasks which can be carried out using this application.

To wake up the handset, simply say “Hi Galaxy”. This will prepare the phone to reply to any voice commands that you decide to carry out. Below I'll guide you through a couple of the tasks which you may carry out using the app on the Samsung Galaxy S3.

You can dictate SMS messages and emails to the phone by simply saying the words you decide to send instead of manually typing them. Of course, this can be a real time saver and the app is surprisingly accurate when it comes to understanding what you are saying. You are able to also ask what the weather conditions are like in a specific location. The device will understand your question and consult the native TouchWiz weather app and show you the results for the area you specify.

Of course, it's also possible to use this feature to make phone calls. Simply say “call” along with the contact's name you want to call. Again, this is a real time saver especially when you have lots of contacts stored in your contacts folder, as you aren't required to search though all of them to find your required contact.

As you can see, the S-Voice app on the Galaxy S3 can be very helpful and has the potential to save a lot of time. It is certainly similar to the feature found on the iPhone 4S, but brings the benefits of this technology, at last, to an Android powered smartphone. Of course, there is a lot more to like about the Samsung Galaxy S3. As an example, it has an advanced 4.8 inch Super AMOLED touchscreen, 8 megapixel camera and numerous innovations made to its interface over that of its predecessor, the exceptionally popular Samsung Galaxy S2. The Samsung Galaxy S3 is without doubt among the most advanced smartphones on the market today. It's now available on major UK networks in both Pebble Blue and Marble White colour variants.
