This phone is amazing! I ordered it as soon as AT&T was taking pre-orders and have been more than satisfied. What even surprised me more was that my wife, who is an avid Iphone person said that she wants to get rid of her Iphone and get a Galaxy S III now.
If I had to complain about the phone, I will say that I think the battery is not quite as good as I had hoped. I think some of that may be my K9 Mail App that seems to get hung up a lot. The phone is saying that it is running almost as much as the cell phone standby.
As far as build quality, I really have trouble understanding why everybody says it feels cheap. I think it feels great. I also would question how many people don't put some sort of case on there phones? If there's a case on your phone, then how can you tell if the battery back comes off or not? Just a thought.
So, the conclusion for me is that the phone has an amazing display, excellent speed, and the size really doesn't feel any bigger than the GSII to me. This in my opinion, is the best smart phone on the market (but for how long?). The one thing I have done is removed the crappy back cover that says AT&T and put on a Samsung GSIII Global back that just says Samsung. I'm not into advertising for other companies. Hope this helps someone that is considering the Galaxy S III.
This is the best smartphone I have put my hands on. Iphone you have met your match
yeah mahn . it is the best in the buisness so far .
The HTC One X that I have is the black version. I do also have the Tegra 3 version, and it is a little faster, but is lacks 4G LTE. I do think that it is much better than the iPhone 4S and a little better than the Galaxy S3, as after a little while the Samsung seems boring in terms of TouchWiz, and the screen seems artificial, and harder to read outdoors. I would recommend getting the HTC One X, unless you want to wait and see what the iPhone 5 or New iPhone is like, but currently, the HTC One X is the phone to get.
I've owned every T-Mobile Android phone that has came to market plus every Nexus phone as well. Also, I've spent time using my girlfriends Verizon phones and The Galaxy S 3 is superior in every way. I love the new features and the design in particular. The phone has brought the attention of anyone that has been close enogh to see me using it. Samsung produces the best quality smartphones bar none.

This phone is a BOSS!! 1. battery life is incredible, i gave it a 4/5 since the Razr Maxx is better 2. performance is off the charts, 2GB of Ram and the blazing fast Snapdragon S4 chip 3. design is underated, alot of people complain about the design and so did i when it was 1st announced but when u see it for urself it looks amazing 4. Android 4.0 is awesome but, my one complaint about this phone is that it doesnt have android 4.1 yet and it will probably take a while unless u root 5. features are awesome 6. its on all carriers which is awesome 7. screen is awesome 8. perfect screen size, not to big like the Gnote, not to small like the GS2
I bought the pebble blue 16g version from tmo. I am very happy with it. The screen size is perfect. It is not to big, holding does not feel weird at all. I have accidentally left a lot of things running in the back ground and have had no problems. The response is better than any other phone that I have looked at before buy the sgs 3. I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone. I have even written this whole thing on it, and no problems.
Being one of the most anticipated devices of the year I was very excited to get it and I wasn't wrong, this phone is amazing but its not really for any of you coming from a dual-core phone, I mean I'm coming from a G2x and performance in doing some simple tasks as launching games and opening apps is mostly the same with a 1 second difference but that's really with a rooted phone. Its a great device and the plastic construction is blown out of proportion it feels nice in the hand and has great ergonomics but adjusting to such a large screen is still a difficult task, typing in landscape or landscape use is kinda a pain as well with the rounded corners you accidentally press the menu key time to time. However that's really all I've got against the device. The screen is great but I guess I was spoiled by the colors of my G2x's IPS display, the Super AMOLED is nothing to shake your head at on this device and pentile is only noticeable if you go picking at it, for the normal consumer or someone with bad eyesight.. they'll be just fine; it could also be just a tad brighter.. and not to mention the sun brings this display to its knees. Battery life is supposed to be great but I'm not sure if I can vouch for it, I normally flip my phone into 2G when I don't need to use data for intensive tasks (so basically I let it do refreshes in the background only) but looks like this option is gone on this device, maybe its T-Mobile - maybe its Samsung, who knows, either way this device performs admirably on the battery life department I suppose, it can pull about 10 hours of heavy usage and 3 hours screen on time, while when you have it sit idle it loses about 2% an hour.. which really isn't too bad considering I have syncing on and 4G data enabled.
All together the device is awesome but unless you're coming from some disaster device you'll be okay, or if you have the XDA community behind your device ;)
this phone should be in first place coz, it has all the profiles that everyone dreamed of.. such as the large screen, the long battery life, the sharp display, and few things that u may never thought that this phone could do. for me this is the dream phone for anyone who wanted a huge display at their phone. this phone is just out of this world.... :)
i love everything about the phone that i want one right now
is this phone available in india cause i wanna buy this
i luv this very much
I have the white version and the dual core xnonos processor is fast andgaming is smooth and battery life is amazing. Also sprint 4g is fast :) big phone makes easy typing...
This Phone has everything i want with its awsome display! it also has a great design with a 12 mp camera and with android 2.3 (its not running ics) it still has the great look of ics and most people would hardly notice i know i dont! haha well there are plenty of apps and call reception has been great i would recoment this phone to anyone? its only 99 bucks
whit the hd super amoled display is a good looking overall nice divice a quick short at batery life
I have had pretty much every mobile OS out there and the iPhone is still tops. It works well within the enterprise environment and is a great tool for everyday use. The camera is amazing! My battery life gets me through a full business day.
Yes, it has fallen behind the Galaxy SIII and others in some areas. Even with its shortfalls, it is one of the best phones on the market.
I was an iPhone user, then I got bored and bought Galaxy Nexus..very very happy!
