Not sure why you like the iphone. It doesn't have social hub on it by default either.

havent heard of it it, but i can honestly say this is the BEST phone ive ever had, or used:good:

I've had a galaxy note, one x, many iPhones, lumias, and galaxy nexus and I love the stock gs3 over them all so far. The one x screen imo is more real color and I do like that phone still. The note was a beauty but to laggy and large. Nexus camera was poop and iphone needs bigger screen

The GS3 is hands down the best phone period. I just got it a day ago and I have had a LG Thrill, iPhone, and Blackberry and this phone beats all of them hands down. Its not even close.

"A whole new world"
Today I switched (long time addict) from an iPhone 4S to a brand spanking new Garnet Red Galaxy S III.
Hello fellow Android users!

I just got my S3 a few days ago. I can't put this damn thing down. I'm just lost in awesomeness 80% of the time.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

Had my S3 for a week and a day now. Love it. Upgraded from a Motorola Atrix 4G. Just received the TPU case that i ordered on Amazon yesterday, and made it even better. A little less slippery-ness is nice, and doesn't add much bulk to the phone..... and $6 is just fantastic. Really don't see why people are so obsessed with buying OtterBox's and stuff like that. Yea, cheapy TPU cases may not be the prettiest... or offer the UTMOST protection... but then again... i can't remember the last time i really dropped my phone.
Really not sure if i want to install the builds of CM10 that are floating around... or if i wanna just keep it stock and wait for Samsung's version of JB. Already have mine rooted and CWM installed, though...

Went to BB today and talked to the Phone manager guy and he said he hadn't seen/heard of any white ones coming in the warehouse so they could be arriving later on in September. But then again he hadn't even heard of the white/silver one in the first place so I believe him like I believe everything on the internet.
If I got it, it would just be covered up by a case like all my phones have been lol... Happy with good ol' black!

All my phones have been naked. I am super careful with them. Only dropped Inc once and damaged the camera ring.
I hope this means that the pitiful local best buy might actually start carrying some inc2 accessories now.

Note 2 coming to 5 big boys in november

Anyone care? I will be sticking to the GS3 because the size is just where I like it anything biger would probably be too much...

EDIT: I just read it will have a 1.6ghz Qua core Exynos CPU... I may very well want that in my life!
Can't wait until November, loved the original Note....might be leaving sprint to get it if they don't roll out lte in NY by then.

Take it from me you'll get use to it fairly easy, and whoever said they couldn't fit a note in their pocket is lying, I normally wear skinny jeans and never had a issue with the original note. Only thing I will say is that it will look fairly ridiculous holding it up to your ear to talk, but I've never been one to worry about what people say or think, and I got plenty of compliments about the phone on a daily basis while commuting in the city.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
im very interested in this and conflicted on what to do...
i never even held the original note, but i dont mind the bigger size at all... the more the better to me, and with those specs, wooooo...
might have to hold onto one in the store before deciding what to do...
One thing I'm looking forward to is the stylus, I haven't had one since the touch pro 2, I liked it a lot. Less fingerprints, but I don't like how it's on the Bottom? why would they make it come out of the bottom, it's going to wear out and simply fall out eventually... kinda stupid but whatever...
Yup, I'll be selling my S2 and S3 to pick one up as soon as they come out!

theres no way you got that note in your pocket pic please lol . I tried putting the old note in my front pockets and it wasn't even close, i barely can get my wallet in my front pockets i don't see you getting it in the there, that phone is big. I'm talking about not hanging out your pockets about to fall . I'll be getting the note 2 + man purse i was getting a nexus 7 until i saw a new note with quad core heading this way.

AT&T Refubished S3, $49.99!

Posted this in the deals forum, but since it's today only I figured I'd x-post it here as well.

Awesome find.

That looks like a good deal, but I always wonder about the warranty (90 days vs. 1 year). I've had to send in 2 of my last 3 smartphones on warranty claims so I worry about this being a good deal.
Typically the good thing about refurbs are whatever the problem was it is now fixed. Puts my mind at ease when I think of it like that lol.

Anybody had any luck selling their S3?

Yes I understand this is kinda a sacrilegious post, but has anybody been able to sell their phone? If so, what price and how long did it take you to get it sold?

I have not personally sold mine, however I have seen people getting up to $500 for it if it's in mint condition
However you can definitely get $400 for it easily, and at $350 it will move in 24 hours or less I'd bet.
Check craigs list and ebay to see what others are selling for.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Seems like everybody want to sell their s3 and get note 2. On ny craiglist there are too many offer to sell or trade.
So I am not even keeping that option.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I'm also in NY and for me to move this quickly in mint condition it would take me selling for $350 or less with all my accessories Nd that's not happening. I'll keep my gs3 as powerful as the note 2 is it doesn't justify the money I have to spend getting it over the s3. Sadly neither does the n4.
I wonder what the next step for android will be. The sgs3 was a nice "jump" and the note 2 is a little move forward but I'm looking for a leap before I move anything.

Depends on you area. I keep grttonf offers of $450 but i still dont see a better phone in the market
I'm going to post mine for sale for 475$ dock charger/spare battery slot, and 2 spare batteries, and a rock case. Phone doesnt have a scratch on it... just waiting to play with the Nexus 4 once my friend gets it.

Went from the OG Note to the 2

Today I gave my son the OG Notr and bought the Note 2. Fast is the first thing that crossed my mind onbstock no less.
I received the multipane update and works fine. It almost feels like a smaller phone than the OG. I guess because its a tad more narrow. My smaller hands like that. Battery life noticeably better and I dont have power saving enabled but am on auto brightness. Speaker a little more clear and crisp. Voice calls are not as muffled. Screen looks good. Camera improved with HDR and extra features. I have a feeling a lot to read about new spen but will do that.
I bought this at BB for 249.00.

I too like the more narrow feel. Makes it easyer to use one handed :thumbup:

I'm glad you like the upgrade! :good:
Sometimes when I look between it does seem like the Note 2's screen is smaller, it's narrow and longer. But it does play tricks on me lol. Wish they didn't make the icon grid size smaller though.

i bought mine off contract directly through at&t... cost me a pretty penny but worth it. though i sold my og note & one x for a nice chunk of chage, so it didn't cost me that much out of pocket. which is always good. not even gonna bother thinking about upgrading till note 3 rolls around. :good:
