Before the GS3 was just laying flat. Power being situated down, it was impossible to have the unit vertically me on the dock (gutter) of this Samsung kit - ETCK1G6BLEU - Accessory Kit with Flip Case + 2 x slim cover + Battery Kit - Blue Unless you like the horizontally arranged. To handle the smartphone player I had to either take control or place just above me ... Anyway I sorely lacked a docking station that can fill these few shortcomings.
This station allows me to load the GS3 placed vertically-oriented without me see the big power cable. It becomes very easy to access the various functions of the Galaxy.
To know that the smartphone starts directly in "dock" with an audio signal once placed on the base (I can not say if other stations have the same effect). This mode allows the camera to continuously display the time, date and weather. With the ability to configure everything so that the brightness can be adjusted specifically for this mode. No need to play the green. The brightness is at 3/4, Wifi, Bluetooth, synchronization and notifications are also in the game.
No need to pull the plug to release the device. It is easily removed from its location.
Do plugging the GS3 very "very" rarely the PC I will not consider the fact that the PC connection is not possible with this station. Namely Dropbox still offers nearly 50GB storage with this smartphone! More needs to be connected to the PC to transfer photos and other data. In short sharp wifi and Bluetooth.
Other stations are able but at what price. Indeed in a comment on one of these "alternative" the person did not load notification on their device and therefore found désaroi with the premature death of the battery! I do not know what conclusion should be drawn but it still has enough to reassure me in choosing this docking station. When you have spent so much for a smartphone that's not to connect with everything and anything supposedly 100% compatible and can be purchased at the town market. I did exactly the same mistake with a SCART strip ...
In the end I would recommend this product to those who know enough to exploit their GS3 not have to connect it to any cable!
