Great phone. Awesome features and display. The camera is extraordinary. My only complaint is with Verizon who does not allow for the use of Google Wallet on the device. I primarily bought it for it's NFC capability. Now I'll have to wait until they sort ISIS out.
This phone is by far the best out on the market currently.....yes the phone is wide,,but thats because your going to get a big screen with it...yes samsung cold've made it less wide...but then the screen format would have to be completely changed....that means..different camera....different screen resolutions...etc....people need to understand the phone is supposed to shine in its brilliant screen QUALITY AND SIZE!!!!!!!...if you dont want a big phone....then dont get this....
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast processor, great graphics, zero-lag, large screen, user-friendly, simple
I would recommend this to a friend!

So I've had my Galaxy S3 for just over a month now, ditching the iPhone for it. There are more pros than cons, but some of the cons are rather annoying. Some of the pros are the screen size (obviously), screen images are way sharper, and direct picture upload to Facebook, Twitter, etc. is wonderful. This is my first Android device, so the widget options, like up to date weather or direct Play Music, is something I really enjoy. Speed is a definite perk, especially since my iPhone was really struggling with opening apps (the delay was several seconds sometimes). The camera is way better and I have shot some awesome video. The Burst Shot has come in very handy with my young children, usually getting one good smile shot in the 20 shots it takes in 3 sec. Some of the cons include the keyboard. I had to turn off the auto-correct. It was way worse than what I experienced with the iPhone and it drove me nuts. I'm still adjusting to the size of the S3, an obvious difference from the iPhone. It's a little hard to hold, but I'm sure in time it won't be such an awkward feeling. Also, with iPhones, when you close out of an app, you truly close out of it. Apparently Android phones don't close their apps. I didn't discover this right away and wondered why my battery life was draining so quickly. I don't like having to go into Task Manager and close out apps, but it has improved battery life. Overall, I do like this phone over my old iPhone, and I'm looking forward to the Jelly Bean OS when it becomes available.
Amazing phone, great reception, amazing battery life best of any 4G LTE phone by far. Simply the best phone on the market. The new apps are far more useful then any of the ones Apple offers.
If youre in teh market for a new phone, this is the only one you should even consider
