My job just got me a new phone SGSIII! Way better than the on call Blackberry - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Came in today to find a SGS3 on my desk woot! I like ICS wish it had Jelly bean, but it's great so far. I gotta get this an xoskin right after work, woot for a company card. I have had a Blackberry Bold for an on call phone and I guess my complaints didnt fall on deaf ears. The thing had issues, I dont even know where they got it. The sticker on the back says property of research in motion limited. It was like some demo blackberry haha. Just waiting for exchange to sync, then I will customize it. What average battery life should I expect? I had like 3 spare batteries on my old evo, as long as I can get 8 hours I should be good.

My work gave me an iPhone 4s

Haha! One of the other engineers here got one. He hates it. Daily complaints. He has a SGS2 for personally use and he side by side compares it all the time. Maybe if he keeps it up, he'll get a droid. I'm sure we have some fan boys here who would take the crapple.

I wish my job would give me a on call phone lol. But I get on average 12-15 hours with 4-5 hours screen on time.

The on call pay is even better. I make $250 for just being available 24 hours over the weekend. Even more when I actually get a call. Love working IT

At least it's a Samsung!
Battery life on the S III is ridiculously great, I can go all day at work using my phone and when I come home at 5 I still have 75% battery remaining.

My company just gave me a brand new iPhone 4s to replace my blackberry also. That thing is so locked down it unbelievable.

You can get jellybean, there's a couple good stable ROMs. I'm using baked black bean 5 right now and it does well, you can use team venum's jellybean ROM because its touchwiz, although I really don't like touchwiz(thought it was great until I tried normal android without it)oh and jellybean would require root unless you wait for the official update which is supposed to be this month.

I'm on stock unrooted(for now at least) and I can go from 7 am to 10 pm with about 6 or 7 hours of screen on time and still have around 20 percent left.

totally agreed. my phone is still on 70%. been off for about 8 hours. evo 3d would have been dead already
Had to see if the Quadrant hype is true and I got a 3723....wow this phone flies. I also love that you can still turn off auto-brightness and adjust it by long pressing on notification bar. I use that feature all of the time on my Epic as well

Granted, I came from a D1, but I love my Dinc2. I did a lot of going back and forth and checking out many of my options, but for me, it has the perfect balance of power and size. My friend got rid of his t-bolt, so I activated it for my wife - I hate the size of it. Granted, it's awesome for sitting on the table and watching video, but to use on a daily basis - kind of like trying to use my Nook for a phone lol.

haha yeah the tbolt is rather large for my liking. I think ill have a lot of fun with the inc2 (im currently on a waiting list...we stirred up quite a storm in the x2 forum about calling Verizon and getting the inc2 for free). I'm looking forward to the OC'ing, vast amount of ROMS, kernels, and mods. It will be something new for the next 8 or so months until im off contract.
Your really going to enjoy the inc2. Its an awesome phone. I'm getting 2 days on a charge running aero's cm9
I'm tracking about 5 of us that came from the dx2 forums that post regularly and probably some lurkers. Got a dinc2 and an HTC extended battery and cover for free. I highly recommend it. You won't be dissapointed

Samsung Galaxy S III Review by FLOSSYCARTER

This dude gives the best reviews on the phones he buys. Real world situations and discussion.
http://youtu.be/cdleL7VO7K0
Thanks for sharing him, I've been subscribed since before I got the photon. Dude is my favorite
This guy is real as Hell, he only reviews what he uses. He is not sponsored.
Check out his thoughts on iPhone 5

FLOSSYCARTER is awesome.
Floss bought an iPhone?? I'll have to watch his review on it...dude must make bank! He buys almost all his phones off contract
With the WiFi issue, he probably had the Sprint Optimizer thing turned on, so it kept trying to use WiFi based on his location. Unless there is a real issue out there, anyone have this problem?

After typing this I realized I did a play-by-play of his review
Is the main complaint he has about this phone really a complaint? I mean he bought the phone knowing that there's no 4G LTE in his area, so how can it be a complaint if he knew this from the get-go? I bought this phone knowing that there isn't 4G LTE in my area so I, for one, don't complain about it.
I also like the build of the phone, I will agree though it does feel slick at times, like it will slip out of your hands like a wet soap bar! I too put a rubberized case on my phone to give it some more grip.
I agree with BWFBezerk, it's not a WiFI bug it's (ah hem, to say it like Apple).. it's a feature... this feature can be turned off without a problem, I disabled it on my phone...
12 to 15 hours battery life with heavy use, SWEET! I don't know what is considered heavy or light use, I use my phone about the whole time I'm at work from 8-5 and when I come home my battery is at 75%, I'm running Sonic FreeS3 0.1.1 and I must admit the battery life is insanely great.. I'm guessing his is stock ROM... I thought he said the battery life is definite "NO" not "GO" haha, my bad
SuperAMOLED is, in my opinion, the best screen ever... this is why I continue to get Samsung phones... from the Samsung Moment, to the Samsung Galaxy S II and now the Samsung Galaxy S III
As far as the speakers go, man I wish we had a front facing speaker for when viewing videos on the phone..
His case is sweet looking, my case has a kickstand on it too and it allows me to prop it up landscape and portrait
I'll have to agree with him, I really like the TouchWiz on this phone too... even thought I have a custom ROM on it, I only have that ROM on because it keeps the phone as stock as possible. One thing I didn't like about the stock TouchWiz though is the fact that the quicksetting automatically scrolled to the right.
Use the power button to get the recently used apps? Did he miss identify the button?
You know that 2 is more than 1, man I like this guy, he's doing a great review... I like how it's raw and uncut... real world as he says... no LINPack and all that...
I might have to hack my home button, I never use S-Voice anyway..
Direct Call is a definite GO!
Tap to Top, thanks for the explanation!
I can never get my screenshot to work swiping my palm from right to left, I can only get it to work from left to right... haha
I use Task Manager daily
This is a really good review, thanks for posting the link!

He has all the iPhones, I don't know if he'll review the iPhone 5. He said it's still too small for him. He only reviews phones he buys himself. Nobody sending the phones to him to review or anything. Check out the review he did for the iPhone 4s. There's 3 parts to that video.
I like dude's review style......but there is no "wifi bug" that I'm aware of.

Ok folks bring it on.

I want y'all to convince me as to why I should get a note 2. I like to hear from the one's who owned a s3 and went to that note 2 also the one's who skipped the s3 and just went for the note 2. I'm thinking about selling my s3 on eBay for this phone. Just like to know of it's really worth it.
Anyone wants to make a Harlem shake video with me?
Nobody needs to convince you. Go to the sprint store and play with their demo for 15-20 mins, use the stylus the whole time.
You'll get your answer better that way because it IS a sizable size difference to hold and that's the biggest issue I've found so far. But I'm getting use to it darn quickly. ha

That's the one thing I may have a issue with is the size that I'm sure with enough time it will become second nature to me. I'm looking on the development forum now trying to find a rom that's close to what I'm running on my s3

Battery life was a deciding factor for me... The size won't be a problem after awhile... You get use to it... Development increases everyday... You won't be disappointed.

very easily, this.
just to reiterate, my 2 cents:
the size was only weird for about 2 days, now it feels mostly normal.
but the battery, the CPU, the screen? all big points to win with.
runs All day with Heavy use (games, chat, SMS/MMS, music, +plus all the other stuff), and some to spare for when i get home
(the only exception to this would be using Nav, but you should be powering your phone when doing that anyway...)
never stutters, never lags, runs every damn thing i throw at it, and sometimes two things at once. aaaaaaa. mazing.
movies/youtube look fan-freaking-tastic on it. pictures look fantastic. games look fantastic. reading feeds/pages/docs/anything at all, fantastic.
again, as far as the size goes?
got in a little tete-a-tete with some iFan on gizmodo about it:
Me said:
every single iPhone user that sees my Note2 wants it. not one exception yet.
even the 2 guys helping me in the Apple store wanted it.
not only do I get the envy of every single iPhone user, I also get the personal satisfaction of knowing my device is hands-down the top of the line in tech specs.
you can pretend to laugh at the size all you like, but Apple has not "innovated" crap in two years.

Some silly iFan said:
I know three iPhone users off the top of my head, instantly, who join me in laughing their asses off whenever we see someone with one of those enormous slabs of plastic on the side of their face. Seriously, we're not "pretending", our laughter and mockery is completely sincere. You look so silly. So now you have four, count 'em four, "exceptions" to your elitist arrogance... So no, the hands aren't down.

Me said:
"elitist arrogance", that's incredibly rich coming from an iPhone user, dontcha ya reckon?
but sure, I'll concede that, the slab-on-the-side is hard to get over. (except I can hide behind it, avoid eye-contact from asshats in the street/on the train/etc. srsly, i've done it.)
but. no one is laughing when I'm watching a movie/YouTube, playing a game, taking/editing a picture/video, editing a document, using integrated Google Maps, texting a friend, reading a website/article/book, using speaker-phone, using my calender.... and sometimes two at once.
be honest, what percentage of time is your "phone" actually on the side of your face?

People laughing at the Note was short lived. Everyone, and I mean everyone that cares about smartphones in even the most cursory way, that sees my Note II is more than a little impressed.
Don't hesitate.
well i came from the s3 to the note 2. at first it felt really big in my hands but after like 2 days i use use my wifes s3 and im like dang this screen is too small lol! anyways pull the trigger you wont regret it. the s pen makes this device better than the s3 by itself but you will notice the faster processor and netflix is really enjoyable on this thing. i was going to get a 7 inch tablet but now i don't need it.

I own the s2 s3 and gn2. The gn2 is in a category of itself. Never had I experienced this awesome batterylife in another phone. I was also concerned with size but that's now a thing of the past. As stated by other users screen size, faster processor and spen were the deciding points.

Everything that guy said minus the never lags part..It indeed does have some lag, especially in the notification shade and the gallery app..seriously though the gallery app is annoyingly laggy..I've switched to quikpik but then you lose out on the special features that come with the note II..

Honestly i jumped on the note 2 as soon as it came out and sometimes do miss my s3. The size isnt an issue bc im 6ft 5 and can hold it with no issue. But the s3 is alot easier to handle with 1 hand. I sold my s3 and got a little over $500 for it bc i had alot of accessories so i only came out of pocket with about $150 for the note 2. If your happy with the s3 you will be happy with the note 2 bc it is very similar. But if you have to come out of pocket with alot of money to make it happen i wouldnt do it. I live in baltimore and theres some people offering $250 and there s3 for a note 2 and im considering jumping on it. Iam in no way sayin the note 2 is a bad phone all im saying is the s3 was and is still a very good phone and to me holds its own against any phone.

Let me tell u if u get this phone u will not be disappointed. I came from a s2 and the size in hand is a little hard to get used to but once u do it is all good. My girl ditched the iphone 4s for the s3 and she sometimes uses my note more then I do

But I only just got my LGOG

I picked up my OG used on eBay for $160 a month ago. I had minimal expectations. I shattered my GS3 and with no warranty and a full year of contract left before my upgrade I needed something affordable and still high-end-ish. I settled on this mostly because of it's quad processor and 13 mp camera [a camera which I to this day had maybe 20 minutes of actual fully functional use of] I was crazy apprehensive of going to a phone with no removal battery or sd slot. These were some of the things I loved the most and lorded them over my iPhone touting friends. But here I was. Me! Knowing my download limitations waaaay in advance. Me! Unable to just pull the cover off and tap the battery out to fix sudden crashes. It was madness at it's finest.
Then suddenly I started to grow to love this thing. The thin, light-weight body. The bright screen. The native (non-Samsung) Android menu key positions. The modest xda community. Something about having a device that next to no one knows about is refreshing.
This device makes me feel like I have some non-amazing super powers just waiting to bust out.
Now if only I could get some damned 4G around here....

Very cool man. This here phone of ours is a beast and based on specs, might be future proofed for some time yet. It certainly won't compete on a raw power basis with some of what's rolling off assembly lines even today, but it will be able to run just about everything we throw at it competently for quite some time.

I know right!
The day before i traded an evo 3d for a iphone 4s with 9 months of applecare+ and apple gave me a brand new one the next day
Welcome! This is a great phone!
I just got my lgog and I'm loving it. I've had it for a week and upgraded from an og evo that wasn't really so mobile anymore. Somehow a capacitor blew on my motherboard so my phone would last randomly between 20 minutes and 2 hours, randomly shut off when battery showed 40-80% so I was tethered to my charger lol. Oh well this phone is amazing. I rooted and unlocked it the day after I got it haha
Got mine yesterday, 170 bucks. clean esn, all the plastic on it still, cords/tags/etc still sealed.
guy was leaving sprint and wanted to get some quick money

i tried to earlier. my main desktop is out of commission until i get a new PSU, my current computer is single core 2gb and takes more than 20 mins to compile a kernel (im used to under 4). when i get it back up and running ill consider doing a stock based kernel (i have yet to find a reason to flash aosp on my device) and ill see how im feeling then.

I know what you mean I'm still on stock and its really fast. I'm used to touchwiz and never really noticed how slow it really was until I got this phone.
