Dont bother, just get an iPhone
on December 31, 2012

Updates take away useful tools that you can't get back like voice input for text messages, samsung app store.
You can get voice input back through third party apps but why should you have to?
You can get apps from google play but there are built in apps that require samsung app store to be up to date which doesnt work if samsung app store can no longer be accessed. And these apps that require samsung app store cannot be deleted!
S voice is no replacement for Siri, very slow and unknowledgable, just directs you to internet for everything accept time of day
I would not reccomend this phone to anyone who doesnt like their favorite apps and useful tools removed whenever theres and update. Sad because if they wouldnt make such bold and foolish updates this could "Could" beat the iPhone at it own game but recent updates make the GS3 less useful and momre of a hassle!!
Pros: Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, updates remove useful add-ons like voice input in
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Regret buying it

While the Bluetooth can connect to my 2013 WRX I have to reset every aspect of it each time I restart the car. Apparently this is a very common problem and Samsung doesn't have a fix. I have successfully connected half a dozen of my friends phones (several of which are brand new premium phones) with no problems. The only reason I bought this phone is that my existing Smartphone died. So, despite its ridiculous dimensions I bought the Galaxy S3 because I have had Samsungs in the past and liked them; so, their flagship (which has been out for awhile now) should be a good phone, not one with a major glitch that should have been fixed before roll-out. Hopefully the store will take it back, if not I will have to buy a cheap Smartphone (which will probably work great) and send this thing packing.
Cons: Poor quality, Too big, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is so much more than just a phone!

The Samsung Galaxy S III is the best phone on the market to get! This phone will stand up to any phone that would go against it. The design is amazing, it fits perfect into your hand. This is the only phone I would even think of recommending because of how great it is. This phone is so cool because you make gestures and the phone will react to them. If you feel lonely you now don't need a iPhone, because you can talk to this phone and it is so fun. It will answer questions of any kind. This is the phone to get! You won't be disapointed at all on any level.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, everything
I would recommend this to a friend!

I just got this phone and I would have given it 5 stars if it had the copyright symbol, like my old phone (MyTouch). I used that symbol in my password & Im kinda mad that I have to change my password or just return it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no copyright trademark & registered symbol
I would recommend this to a friend!
