Missing some functions

I have been using the Galaxy SIII for four months now. The performance is good and I do like the phone. Occasionally the phone will freeze or become unresponsive and the only way I can get working again is to remove the battery.
There two things that my old phone did that this one will not. The SIII does not have an internal FM receiver and it will not allow you to record a phone call. I miss having those tools available.
The battery life is acceptable. Most days I can make it through the day on one charge.

Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, removable battery
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no fm radio receiver, it blocks phone recording

Exellent Phone
on November 26, 2012
Posted by: johnnydubs
I absolutely love this phone. It has snappy performance and great features. My previous phone as a Droid-X, whioch I loved, however, I was in serious need of an upgrade. After considering many of the phones on the market, I finally decided on this one and I do not regret my decision.
There are only one things that I do not like about this phone and is is carrier specific and not necessarily the fault of Samsung....No Google Wallet.
If you want to enjoy all of the features this phone has to offer, I would recommend making sure the carrier you choose allows them.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: carrier does not allow google wallet

This phone replaced my Samsung Moment that I had for almost 2 years. The Galaxy SIII is the real deal, a true iPhone killer! This thing covers every base and then some. It's a lot at first but soon you realize that there is no going back once you are accustomed to the functions of the device. If I HAD to pick out a down side I would say that it's very thin in my hand, but I'm a good sized person. I corrected this by purchasing one of the more bulky phone cases available. I've never been let down by a Samsung purchase yet and look forward to many more.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, functionality, ease of use, customizations
Cons: too thin? if that's possible
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best phone I've ever had

Nothing short of amazing, i heard the rumors but until i had it in my hand i didn't believe the hype. Samsung out did themselves this time . The S3 is fast ,colorful and stylish all without being thick and heavy. I love how smooth the interface is I've recommended it to my coworkers 3 of them have already picked one up for themselves. the only thing negative i have to say is that it's slightly too big but that's just a personal opinion. if you are looking for an amazing phone this holiday season then the S3 is it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, smooth interface, stylish
Cons: Too big
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fancy-Schmancy
on November 28, 2012

Pretty fancy-schmancy product. Smooth, bright and clear. Pretty darn quick, too. It has features which this old man will never use but it's phoning capabilities are very, very good - especially with earbuds. Email/website access is just as quick as my desktop. Plenty of apps. I don't use it for games or watching movies/music. Decent battery life for my use.
The only cons I see are a very slippery case (How about a crackle finish for us guys?) which required a case to offset and very sensitive edges for the touch screen. Being fumbled-fingered leads me to that insignificant comment.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, phoning
Cons: very sensitive touch screen
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really do like this Galaxy S III - I am only concerned about the battery life - I use this thing like I used to use my desktop - so I keep it plugged in while in the car and when ever at my desk - Way mmore than I had hoped for.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: need more battery
I would recommend this to a friend!
