This is my first smartphone. I upgraded from the Solstice to this phone and I'm pretty happy with all of the bells and whistles. I'm glad I waited until this phone came out. I've had mainly Samsung cellphones and they've all worked well. GSIII is very easy to get started and there's plenty of apps to choose from. It's a good size, great viewing screen, great software....the only thing is I wish the battery charge would last longer, but I guess that's what I'll have to live with considering all the things this phone will do.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use
The original phone I received had an overheating problem that drained the battery in minutes. It was replaced under warranty by ATT with a refurbished unit. It works well but the battery is not capable of providing a full 24 hours of normal use..
In general, I like this phone. I can get my corporate email, IM. Does well at a lot of the "smart" phone things. I do not think it is a particularly great phone, passable but not great. I recently picked up a HM7000 bluetooth which seems to help voice quality. The speakerphone is loud enough and I have been told the quality on my end is good. The GPS is excellent. The ICS update took too long to get out to the public. Battery life needs to be managed to make last more than day.
this phone is one of the best phones out there right

When I first got this phone I loved it. That was in December of 11. Now we are in July of 12 and the phone is starting to act weird. It will trun it's self off or restart without me touching it. It freezes a lot. The people at the att tech support told me to delete all of my apps and start by adding one by one back to see which one is causing the problem. My thought on that is these phone should be able to handle whatever we put on them. I don't know if is the phone or service.
