So Why is the Samsung Galaxy S3 is most Poplular now ? The only answer is its Greatness and Outstanding Features.
So now take a look at Samsung Galaxy S3 Features in Detail.

Features
Galaxy S3 uses Google's Android Mobile Operating System ( Android Version 4 ). Its TouchWiz User Interface, like most Interfaces, consists of Elements such as Sliders, Switches, and Buttons.

S Voice

S Voice is a Intelligent Personal Assistant and Knowledge Navigator which works as an Application for Samsung's Android Smart Phones ( Similar to Apple's Siri ). It responds to You, i.e. You can Tell the Phone to Wake Up, Answer an Incoming Call, or even take a Photo.
The Application uses a Natural Language User Interface to Answer Questions, make Recommendations, and Perform Actions by delegating requests to a set of Web Services.

Smart Stay

One of the other big-hitting features Samsung is talking about is the ability to Track your Eyeballs to make sure the Display Stays Lit when you're looking at it. In theory this should mean that you can keep the Screen Timeout to a minimum of Fifteen Seconds and then Never have to Worry about it Turning Off. A little Eye Icon ( Eyecon ) Appears in the Notification Bar when it's Tracking your Peepers. It waits till you're Asleep, the Screen maintains a bright Display as long as you're looking at it.
In practice it works around 75% of the Time, even in Bright Light it can sometimes still Turn Off the Display, despite the icon Showing up. In fact, the Icon can Pop Up even when you're Wearing Sunglasses - so it's hard to trust it.

Smart Alert

Smart alert takes the Motion Sensor in the Phone and Sends you a Vibration Notification if you have any Notifications that you haven’t Cleared yet. What is most likely happening here, if the phone picks and chooses what notifications to tell you about via Smart Alert, there is likely a White-List of sorts that allows you to set notification type for Smart Alert.It knows when you've been away from your phone: a vibrating nudge lets you know that you have missed calls or messages.

Social Tag

The most Interesting Intelligent Functions of the Galaxy S3 is the Social Tagging Feature. According to Samsung, the Galaxy S3 is capable of Identifying and Properly Tagging the people in your Photos as long as you have them added as Contacts ( with an attached picture ). If this Face Recognition Software works as Samsung claims it does, it is one of the most Interesting Smartphone Capabilities ever.

The Features being Implemented here will be unique to Samsung, and will further encourage users to stick with Samsung with all Devices moving forward.
