Samsung Wave 3 Review
Leaving behind the influence of Android operating system Samsung’s new piece of art is based on latest Bada operating system . Samsung Wave 3 is one of the three handsets launched by Samsung mounted Bada 2.0 operating system. Enriched by 4 inches super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with picture resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, Samsung Wave 3 has inbuilt memory of 4GB that is followed by external memory support through micro SD flash card slot capable of storing card upto 32 GB. Based on Bada 2.0 operating system, it is supported by 1.4 GHz processor.
The USP of Samsung Wave 3 is its camera of 5 mega pixel that ensures the user with high defined photo experience is stalked by secondary VGA camera for video calling with other users. Connectivity with Bluetooth and USB cord ensures data transfer to other devices with help of these ports, whereas connectivity with Wi-Fi enables the user with feature of internet surfing without internet modem in Wi-Fi zone. Whereas connectivity with other options for instance GPRS supports to get connected with operator’s internet option to download any data by payment of necessary operating charges, whereas connectivity with 3G supports the internet surfing at instant speed and also supports video chat with other user. To enrich the user with facility of accessing their mails any where any time Samsung Wave 3 has integrated inbuilt WAP 2.0/xHTML, HTML web browser, connectivity with web browser ensures the user to also get connected with various social networking websites for staying connected with friends and relatives whenever they like.

Besides all these noteworthy features, Samsung Wave 3 enables the user to get mobile handset connected with TV output to view contents of personal video recording on wide screen to access their acting skills.
Enriched with all these features Samsung Wave 3 carries features to grab attention of users and make place in their heart.
Overall Review
With Android devices coming from every directions at a furious pace, it’s a brave decision from Samsung to sustain its Bada operating system featuring device with Samsung Wave 3. The third edition of the high end "non-Android" featuring device looks good and solid from the outside with a sturdy look but still feel comfortable in the hand with all the right curves at the right places. The screen is same as those we have observed in the previous Galaxy versions with a resolution of 480 by 800 pixels and is Super AMOLED giving minimum reflection from different angles. The screen size is not small by any means with 4 inches protected by the Corning Gorilla Glass technology. The Bada operating system on the other hand has taken a jump with the device featuring the 2.0 version of the same. The device is also powered by the 1.4 GHz processor which gives it the needed push in terms of speed at which the device works. The camera of 5 megapixel is well backed up by loads of features including Geo-tagging, face, smile and blink detection, image stabilization, touch focus and works at a resolution of 2592 by 1944 pixels. The quality of the pictures produced by the device is good but not great and we can safely assume that camera is not the device's greatest strength. A secondary VGA camera is provided for web calling. Wi-Fi is quick and smooth but not as quick as the Galaxy series. Android is also significantly ahead of Bada in terms of the number of apps and games it has to offer with the Android being the largest market for the same. The 1500 mAh standard lithium ion battery should not disappoint the users and would give the user a healthy talk time and standby time.
User Interface and UI functionality
Samsung Wave 3 has a 4 inch super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen that gives 16 million colors along with a resolution of 480 by 800 pixels and works at a pixel density of 233 ppi. The screen is powered by the multitouch technology along with the corning gorilla glass technology that protects the screen from unwanted scratches. Other facilities include the TouchWiz UI and the Handwriting recognition features.
Multimedia features
Samsung Wave 3 has a music player that allows the user to listen to all the popular musical tracks that can be heard through the loudspeakers or through the earphones that can be attached to the device with the help of a 3.5 mm jack. The sound quality is very good like most of the Samsung Phones specially when heard through the earphones. The music player is compatible with the formats MP3, WAV, WMA, eAAC+ and Flac player while the video player is compatible with the formats MP4, MKV, H.263, H.264, WMV, Xvid and DivX video player. There is the stereo FM radio with RDS and FM recording facility as well.
Pictures and Video quality
The 5 megapixel camera offered by the Samsung Wave 3 is not its strongest suit but the camera is still very decent and lets the user click pictures at a resolution of 2592 by 1944 pixels and features loads of features like the auto focus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, face, smile and blink detection, image stablilization and touch focus facility. The LED flash lets the user click bright pictures even when the natural light is not up to the mark whereas the auto focus is for precision. There is a secondary VGA camera for web calling and video chat whereas the user can also shoot videos at 720 pixels.
Internet support
Samsung Wave 3 has a pretty solid Internet back giving the user easy and swift access to the web. The Wi-Fi facility comes backed by the Wi-Fi Direct, UMA and Wi-Fi hotspot and makes sure that the user can download data including music files, games, images and videos or browse the desired web sites like Facebook and Twitter.
Internal and External Memory
Samsung Wave 3 has a 4 GB internal memory which is pretty healthy allowing the user to store a fair amount of data like songs, games, images and videos. If the user is keen on storing more data than the prescribed amount of memory given then he or she can do so by stretching the memory up to 32 GB with the help of the microSD card slot. The user can then store massive amounts of data without worrying about the memory space running out.
Applications and Gaming
Although Samsung Wave 3 has lots of games and apps in the offering, when compared to any other Android device, they seem pretty mediocre not only in terms of quality but also in terms of the quantity. Still those who are not that keen on games, the ones offered by the device are pretty decent and would keep you entertained.
Battery Backup
Samsung Wave 3 runs on the standard lithium ion battery of 1500 mAh that lets the user enjoy all the features of the device without his or her entertainment being cut short in the middle. The user then gets a talk time of Up to 14 hours and 15 min in 2G and Up to 8 hours and 40 min in 3G. The standby time offered is Up to 535 hours in 2G and Up to 517 hours in 3G.
Connectivity Offered
Samsung Wave 3 has loads of data connectivity with the bluetooth feature allowing the user to exchange data with other devices where the data exchanged may include music files, games, images and videos. There is also the USB port that can be used for charging the device as well as for transferring or retrieving data to or from a computer or a laptop via USB cable. The GPRS allows the user to navigate to the desired destination without getting lost. Wi-Fi feature lets the user browse through the web and access the desired web sites or even download data of their choice.
Compare
Samsung Wave 3 when compared to Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus has a bigger screen with the former featuring a 4 inch screen and the latter 3.65 inches. The operating system is different for the two as well with Samsung Wave 3 running on the Bada 2.0 operating system and the Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus on the Android Gingerbread operating system. Battery is more powerful for Samsung Wave 3 with 1500 mAh as compared to the 1300 mAh offered by Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus. Camera is of similar strength with 5 megapixels but the processor is more powerful for Samsung Wave 3 with 1400 MHz as compared to the 1000 MHz offered by Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus. Internal memory offered is more or less same for both handsets while the microSD card slot is provided for both as well.
News Updates
Will the third be a charm for the Samsung Wave series with its Samsung Wave 3. The device had a lot to compensate for given the absence of Android and they have managed very well with a 4 inch super AMOLED capacitive touch screen and a 5 megapixel camera. The Wi-Fi is also very capable along with a powerful battery and a sturdy exterior. Those who are not too fussy about owning a Android device would certainly find the device tempting.
