The GS3 is the perfect size for me. The display is large enough for clarity and it's small enough to fit in my pocket. One of my favorite additions was the flip case. I've had my GS3 over two years - it's in perfect condition. Very pleased with the camera as well.
This is a wonderful product that is well worth your money. The Galaxy S III has amazing features like s-beam, hot spot, and multiple ways to stay connect to friends and family. The display of the phone is spectacular and the battery life is a huge plus. I highly recommend the Galaxy S III it is a wonderful product and a great value.
Packed with features, great design, highly durable. Oh wait, this is a phone, wheres the reception? Tons of calls sent straight to voicemail. Besides that. Its a good phone for browsing the web on wifi.
Ever since I updated to KitKat, my camera all of a sudden stopped working. It gives me a black screen with the icon of the SD card in the right corner and then a "camera fail" pop up. I've googled and youtubed it and it's happened to all the galaxy phones/tablets from s3 to s5. Hard reboot, clearing camera cache, even a new SD card didn't solve the problem. Samsung needs to release an update to fix this problem! There are thousands of users that are having this problem from all the forums and videos I've seen.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, camera fail after kitkat update
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Galaxy S III is fantastic. It has a great camera, lengthy battery life, and a beautifully clear screen. I love it and refuse to trade it for anything. My one gripe is that sometimes the phone can freeze or slow down for a few seconds before responding to an input. But it is an amazing product and I would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend!
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

My father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, my wife and I all had the same wireless provider for approximately 10-15 years. We all live in rural communities. In addition, we all purchased the Samsung Galaxy S3 phone when it came out. My brother-in-law and sister-in-law changed to another wireless provider because of dropped calls and thinking they were getting lousy service from their wireless provider. My father-in-law and mother-in-law changed to another wireless provider because of dropped calls and thinking they were getting lousy service from their wireless provider. My wife and my contracts were about to end and we were considering changing to another wireless provider. While in conversation with a tech support supervisor from our wireless provider, he informed me that there may be issues with the antenna in the Samsung Galaxy S3 phone. We decided to stay with our wireless provider and purchase newer phones. My wife purchased the Samsung Galaxy S5 and I purchased the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. We no longer have calls dropped in the same locations we were having the problems before. In our experience our problems were not with the wireless provider, but with the Samsung Galaxy S3 phones. I would not recommend purchasing the Samsung Galaxy S3 phone, unless you live and travel near cell towers.
