Promising battery test results for Samsung Galaxy S3

The folks over at GSMArena have completed some preliminary tests of the battery life on the Samsung Galaxy S3, and it seems to be fairing pretty well against the competition.

The results show the 2100mAh battery in Samsung’s new flagship phone among the top 5 high-end smartphones for talk time and video playback, with average results for web browsing (those white pages use a lot of power on AMOLED screens). Overall the results show around a 25% increase in battery life over the respectable performance of the S2.

For the full test results head on over to GSMArena.
