Using a mouse and keyboard on an Galaxy S3? Yes, we can make it this way but this is unusual use unless you use the Galaxy S3 as a portable mini PC and connecting to HDTV or monitor else the mouse cursor will be hard to see inside a 4.8” screen display. To connect both USB mouse and keyboard, you need an USB hub to connect to SGS3 via USB OTG cable. You can also connect Bluetooth mouse or keyboard but only one at a time.

7. Wireless Charger Toolkit [Not available yet]

During the past Samsung Unpack event, Samsung has demonstrated the wonderful an unique wireless charging toolkit for Galaxy S3 where you can easily charge the NTC battery wirelessly. However, the toolkit is still not available in market even not selling officially by Samsung. The shipment of the toolkit was rumored delay to September of this year and I believe many of the Samsung Galaxy S3 users are looking forward to purchase this handy tool for their lovely SGS3.

8. Dock Station/Spare Battery/Charger

Dock station and holder is useful especially when you are using PC. You do not need to hold the device but yet can easily control the device by one hand. Replacement/back up battery is optional where the existing Galaxy S3 battery should be enough for a daily use. Backup battery is good for travel purpose where you have your SGS3 back to life 100% with the replacement battery. Get it here.
