Wow so much functionality in one device.
For those who don't know, a barometer is something that measures current air pressure. So when you go up hills or mountains, you'll be able to measure the pressure. This is quite useful in situations where there is low relative pressures of oxygen.
Barometers also come in handy in GPS/navigation functions. Barometers make it easier to lock onto satellites.
The Samsung Galaxy S3 features a whopping 4.8-inch 720p Super AMOLED display, an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, a 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera, and runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Samsung's new flagship phone is powered by a quad-core Exynos chip clocked at 1.4GHz, with 1GB of RAM. It comes in three different configurations - 16GB, 32GB and 64GB - expandable with a microSD card supporting up to 64GB of additional storage. Other features include accelerometer, proximity sensor, RGB light, gyroscope, near-field communication (NFC) capabilities, and barometer.
