Great Phone... Great Price

My first problem with my previous phone was battery life. It was awful. This phone lasts quite a bit of time with many more processes running in the background. It has great speed handling what I want it to do and minor setbacks like freezing. It usually unfreezes quickly too.
This phone is a looker. In a society where the Iphone has become the go-to phone a phone needed to come out that would change people's mind and I think the Samsung Galaxy SIII did just that with its sleek look and great display.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, excellent battery life, great speed, nice media management
Cons: s voice not as optimized as it could be
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Sammy Device Yet!

I have used many, many, phones in the past. I work in the telecommunications industry and I deal with phones on a daily basis. The features that Samsung has implemented into the SIII are PRICELESS!
I have a Samsung Smart TV with AllShare, and the ability to stream my movies, music and pictures to my TV is my favorite feature. However, I do wish i was able to get a "mirror" mode from my phone to my TV with AllShare. I know that this is a new feature Samsung is working on, and i hope they will continue to improve over the life of the Galaxy series phones.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, allshare, motion, s beam
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent Phone!

While it maybe over 6+ months old the phone itself is still quite awesome. It's not the most perfect screen(with 1080p out) or fastest/responsive phone out there but it sure packs an overall punch that can't be duplicated. The way it feels in your hand almost feels like a natural fit, more-so than any other phone I've had or played with for a few hours. The camera, sound, & S-Beam features are awesome in my opinion....and again not #1 in any specific category but it's overall experience makes it hard to beat.
Honestly other than the New New phones & the Galaxy Note II nothing else comes close to a Galaxy SIII and the funny thing is even the bleeding edge brand new phones still have missing pieces to their puzzle.
You can't go wrong with this phone & now they are @ a price range even more affordable then 6 months ago.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Very good phone but not up to IPhone quality
on February 16, 2013

After having an IPhone for several years, I decided to switch to see if the Galaxy S3 would lived up to the hype.
I like the configurability of the S3 but the quality does not match that of the IPhone. After just a few weeks the Galaxy seemed to slow down considerably and it has rebooted on me a couple of times while talking on the phone. (I never had this problem on my IPhone.). The camera does not take clear pictures like the IPhone and the live news feed that I was use to from the CNN app on IPhone is not available on my Samsung.
So would i buy another Samsung phone? I am not sure yet. Would i buy another IPhone, can't answer that one either.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing phone, TouchWiz kills it...

Phone is amazing, best specs on the market, build quality could be better. My volume buttons sometimes get stuck, and my power button is very wobbly, and not firm at all. Seems like it's going to go inside the phone soon.
Phone works amazing as soon as you unlock the bootloader (Verizon) and flash a custom ROM on it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: buttons

I love this phone! Beautiful and easy to manipulate. I have thrown a lot at it since I got in early January, and it has handled everything easily. Battery life isn't the greatest, but that's not Samsung's fault, it's the limits of technology.
Pros: Bright display, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!
