Pajama Day: A Look at the Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean Update

Today is filming my pajama day because I don't feel like getting dressed or doing anything, so you can see here this is my Phantom of the Oper t-shirt that's actually where my username comes from - "angel music 1989" because I like to sing and stuff. So, yeah, I have several updates today and things that I would like to discuss.

First and foremost, I want to talk about the Jelly Bean update on the Galaxy S3. I have flashed it via Odin, and I'll be giving a full in-depth review of it but today kind of just going to give you my Impressions and other things also. This month I'm going to be going to Dallas Texas for big Android barbecue - it's a really awesome Android event where there's tons of sponsors and crazy awesome Android nerds who will be there, so I am very excited for that.

The most exciting thing for me is that in a couple of days on Tuesday I'm going to be having a visitor coming all the way from France because he's insane. Maybe some of you know him - his name is Super Curio, and he's created apps like Voodoo sound, voodo louder to really enhance the sound Android experience especially in the Galaxy line of phones. I actually met him on Twitter when I was really upset about the Galaxy S3 black clipping and whatnot, and we just started talking from there. And I had known him previously because I was not happy with my exercise experience because I watched Netflix on my phone as I'm exercising and I couldn't hear it through earphones, so Voodoo sound voodo Lou was so awesome, and so I just had been such a huge fan of his work, and now he's a very dear friend of mine.

Now, let's get back to Impressions on the Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean. When looking at the TouchWiz version of Jelly Bean, the first thing I noticed is that Samsung has done a little bit of changes to the color theme - the status bar looks black here, it's not it used to be black but now it's more like a lighter of a gray. So, that must be because they're hoping to have the screen burn in more evenly. I really like what Samsung has done with the folders; it seems more Jelly Bean-like before they just had to keep that old ugly folder system instead of going with what Ice Cream Sandwich does.

Another thing I noticed is that when you hold down your home button and get to your recent apps window, now there's a menu here on the bottom. You can get to your running applications finally from there, which is quite nice - I can end them here, I can choose to see my storage, my Ram, whatever you can clear everything, and you also can get to Google Now from there. It's interesting but functional.

I wanted to test something though what will happen if I push pause and I lock it? Will it let me still resume the question so it seems that when you lock the device even if you've paused it, it will automatically want you to record a new clip. Another cool thing is that when you hold down your home button and get to your recent apps window now there's a menu here on the bottom. You can get to your running applications finally from there - I can end them here, I can choose to see my storage, my Ram whatever you can clear everything.

I also want to talk about Google Now. It reminds me of Siri, and it does basically the same things now remind me to go to the grocery store at 5 p.m., setting alarm so you can tell it to remind me to go to the grocery store at 500 p.m., but if I try doing this remind me to go to the grocery store at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow, it says sorry alarms and reminders only support times of days but not dates, really remind me to go to the store tomorrow at 5:00 p.m.

Over the next few days, I'll be playing with Jelly Bean more and seeing what else I can discover that's new or what else I think is beneficial or makes it the phone for you. So, we will see how that goes but as for now thank you everyone for watching this has been Erica, the technology nerd who likes to film stuff, please rate comment and subscribe follow me on Twitter which is _ Erica, also follow me on Facebook which you can get to from my main YouTube channel page.

oper t-shirt that's actually where my username comes from the angel music 1989 because I like to sing and stuff so yeah I have several updates today and things that I would like to discuss first and foremost is Jelly Bean update on the gxy S3 I have flashed it via Odin I'll be giving a full in-depth review of it but today kind of just going to give you my Impressions and other things also this month I'm going to be going to Dallas Texas for big Android barbecue it's a really awesome Android event where there's tons of sponsors and crazy awesome Android nerds who will be there so I am very

watched Netflix on my phone as I'm exercising and I couldn't hear it through earphones so Voodoo sound voodo Lou was so awesome and so I just had been such a huge fan of his work and now he's a very dear friend of mine and I really can't wait till he gets here he's not here yet he needs to be here because we're going to be filming and going places and doing fun things so I'm excited and yeah so now back to Impressions on the Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean so when looking at the TouchWiz version of Jelly Bean the first thing I noticed is that Samsung has done a little bit of changes to the color theme the status bar it looks black here it's not it used to be black but now it's more like a lighter of a gray so that must be because they're hoping to have the screen burn in more evenly I really like what Samsung has done with the folders it seems more Jelly Bean like before they just had to keep that old ugly folder system instead of going with what ice cream sandwich had so really looks quite nice when pulling down your notification bar it now displays the time and the date whereas it it didn't have that before they added a blocking mode under the settings which works kind of like do not disturb with the iPhone so that you can choose during certain times of the day that people can contact you you can choose to block certain numbers so I find that that's pretty awesome they've added some more things the notification box here is now far more saturated with information you see that You' got access to Google now which is really cool as well if you enable Google Now you will have Google tracking what you do so that you can see places that are relevant to your surroundings it'll tell you different news pieces you can find out about your favorite sports teams so you don't have to turn Google Now on but it just is more convenience to your traveling and to traffic and all those other things so it's it's quite cool it seems that Samsung has made a lot of improvements with the camera application which I find always awesome because before there were problems with importing videos to Mac for some reason the sound would be so distorted to where it would be completely unusable that is no longer a problem I notice that when importing videos and looking at the sound it still hits the Red Zone to a point where it's uncomfortable I hope they further fixed that cuz it's kind of ridiculous and stupid but at least the audio in your videos is now usable also an interesting thing that they've done with video is that when you are recording you now have the option to pause in video that's something that's really rare and I wish that even my video cameras would have that so watch this you can hit the pause button I'm at 19 seconds and it sits there at 19 seconds it's not going to record anything else but at the same time you're not stopping and having to start a new video so I can literally just hit resume there you can see it's got 22 23 and then you can stop the clip all together and just create a new video clip so I find that really cool especially if you like to do on screen editing it makes it convenient you can just simply pause it and go and film something else and then pause it and go to another thing your brother's blowing out his candles I don't know then you can do the aftermath and see him opening his presents so that allows you to do that simply by pushing pause I want to test something though what will happen if I push pause and I lock it will it let me still resume is the question so it seems that when you lock the device even if you've paused it it will automatically want you to record a new clip something else cool is that when you hold down your home button and get to your recent apps window you now have a menu here on the bottom you can get to your running applications finally from there that's quite nice I can end them here I can choose to see my storage my Ram whatever you can clear everything and you also can get to Google Now from there so interesting but functional make me a sandwich yeah it doesn't interact with me like Siri does Siri would be like what I'm not permitted to prepare food but they do basically the same things now remind me to go to the grocery store at 5 p.m. setting alarm so you can tell it reminds me to go to the grocery store at 500 p.m. but if I try doing this remind me to go to the grocery store at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow it says sorry alarms and reminders only support times of days but not dates really remind me to go to the store tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. here's your reminder for tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. so you see there's an option on Siri to say tomorrow but you can't do that with the Google voice I wonder if that's a copyright infringement interesting so over the next few days I'll be playing with Jelly Bean more and seeing what else I can discover that's new or what else I think is beneficial or makes it the phone for you so we will see how that goes but as for now
