The 3D thing has an on/off switch and 3D depth contour.
And its not just about the 3D but the performance of this phone trashing SGS II

This smartphone is the fastest one today. Faster than Tegra 2 phones. 3D capability is just icing on top. I’d buy this phone even without the 3D. I can’t wait till this thing comes out. Also, HDMI with mirroring capabilities and dual-channel dual-memory is not bad at all. This phone is a beast and I just can’t wait to tame this beast.

3D is still gimmicky. you won’t enjoy a 3D movie on a small screen. and you need a 3D TV to enjoy it on a big screen.

When I first heard of a 3d phone, I was like “Wow!” But after sometime, it turned to “Meh”.

Features like this is meant to impress your friends for one to two times, but after that, it is meant to be forgotten and unused, more like a novelty thing which you can easily get over with.

Now, if that is worth the 5k+ (assuming) increase over a same smartphone without 3d features, idk.

I have never seen a 3D movie that I liked. There is a reason why 3D was put aside decades ago and sooner or later people will realize it.

This is a pass for me.

This is making me want to go out and finally get an Android smartphone. And the 3D video capability sounds absolutely cool!

Do you have a sample 3D video, Yuga? It would be great to see one. Thank you! :-)
