4 inches is my preference. But I'll take 4.3. 4.5" seems to be getting too big and soon they're making 5.2 inches. LOL

Well I think if the buttons were incorerated on the scren andthere is basicly no edge on the size of the screen they can make a smaller sized phone with a big screen still..
4.3. 4.5 is overkill on a phone IMHO. I wish Sprint would have an Android world phone with dual (GSM/CDMA) radios - sucks that the only world phone is a BB.

I wouldn't mind bigger but the biggest I think it should ever get isfive inches... and thst screen to the edge of the phone and it would still beapretty big phone.
Everything we've heard up to now says 4.3" since that's the size everywhere else in the world, so I'm not sure our preference is relevant. The non-Pentile SAMOLED+ screen they're using didn't allow for the same level of pixel density as the previous models, so they had to up the size. I've heard nothing to suggest we're getting anything different than the standard SGSII screen.
Honestly, I'm starting to lose interest. I've seen numerous reviews and videos and I'm starting to want something else.
It's been out for months in other countries and we haven't even received an announcement about its release...

4.3 would be good.

I don't think I will but only because of the size. I have small hands and the E4GT is at the top of my comfort level already but the Note is a sweet looking device so I will give it a look if it does come to Sprint. I think the rumored Sprint name is the Galaxy Journal?

I believe kc said he had a note a gnex a evo lte and something else. I would drop this phone in a heartbeat for the note/journal. I already struggle trying to type in portrait on this phone.
I always keep my phone on my hip so a case would not be needed by me, but I do understand the concern.

I really would like to get one but I'm having second thoughts about paying full price for a bigger screen. I should, but doubt I will knowing my impulsiveness, wait to see if there's any problems initially like there was with this phone when it first comes out. I will also wonder what kind of specs the g3 well have and when it will be here for us. Those are the two I'm watching. Also, if the note still has a dual core snapdragon when it comes out for us, I might pass. Two steps forward with the hardware then one back with the CPU.
Id buy one first day.

Very true statement. If it domes with an S4pro with the new adreno gpu that thing will be a monster. I know that Samsung will eventually integrate lte in their processors but when is the question.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yes. Give me one with LTE and any exynos processor and I would be totally satisfied and have no need for anything else for the rest of that contract at least!
With how big the battery is, couldn't they just put an lte radio in there and have a toggle to turn it off and on like wimax? Then it would still be our responsibility to watch the battery. I could totally go for something like that as long as they kept the exynos. But do not count out the S4pro it has the upgraded gpu also with lte built on the die.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
If it came with ICS out of the box, and LTE support. Would definitely pick it up.
Because I too will be paying full price (unless I come up with a way to sweet talk an early upgrade out of someone) and since I'm not even 100% sold on getting the phone, I'm definitely going to wait awhile and see how it performs. Also the extra wait time will allow a chance for the SG3 to possibly make an appearance, that's the phone I really want.
But I'm a major gadget whore so there's no guarantee what I will or won't buy regardless the cost. lol
I don't know...I like the Note, but I would need a few things in order to lock myself in for 2 more years for it. First, LTE capability. ICS would be good, but not necessary at launch for me.
It would need an upgraded processor though. With the Evo LTE coming out and the SGS III likely to be announced sometime soon, I don't want to get stuck with a last gen processor for 2 years.
Honestly, I probably won't make a decision on my next phone until I see what Sammy has up their sleeve.

Im camping outside.
Amazon has 5000ma extended life batteries by hyperion AND there's a tpu case for the extended battery too.
As far as a phone the SG2 is the biggest i'll go, and I already have a Galaxy Tab 10.1, but if I had neither of these then maybe. After a fondling session at the dealers first....
So do you guys like your gs3? Would you have gotten a different phone, given the chance?
Just curious if this is the one to get. Im coming from the Tmobile G2X.
Well? Do you?
Lol. I love my phone. Maybe would have gotten the note 2 only for the lte.

It's a good phone. I'm going to root it soon because in it's present state I feel that performance could be better and the gross amount of bloatware is incredibly annoying. I have used the speed test app and I'm T-Mo and managed to get a max of 27.80Mbps. Not to shabby. I did realize later that the size of the phone is quite big for my hands but the screen real estate makes up for it. I don't think I would have gotten anything else. Battery is great as well.
Yes. Absolutely i love my S3.

Im assuming you're kidding? Otherwise you would not be floating around the gs3 forum still?
If you are serious, what do you mean "didnt know whether you were coming or going"? What does that even mean lol?
and by mentioning the "htc one", im assuming you mean the "one S". So that being said, no removable storage card and no removable battery, doesnt that speak for itself? Good luck with that one, or did you overlook those two missing features?
If you are serious, can you explain why u chose the htc one s over the gs3?
To the other person, the note 2 looks nice but from what i was reading, it seems a little big.
And also, people keep mentioning the nexus. Is it better than the gs3 better?
I like it, overall pretty good. WiFi performance and Wi-Fi calling are very bad. If you are planning on using WiFi calling DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!
The s3 is light years ahead of the lg, that's a 2 year old phone that wasn't even that great to begin with. IMO the only other phone out right now to compare with the s3 is samsung's own Note2, but that's a giant phone and definitely not for everybody. If you wait a little longer LG's new superphone is around the corner but who know's when exactly it'll be released.

Hey Kid. I remember you from the G2x days. Night and day different experience. Everything just works. Screen quality, speed, size, features, everything is better. This is what the android experince should be.You will love gaming on the GS3.
I love it so much. I do have an issue with the battery running out quickly but I think I have a faulty battery. Not sure. Other than that it's the best phone I've had. I don't think there's anything better out there.
The only other phone i would consider is the new Nexus coming out simply for the updates. It still hasn't been announced tho but I'm sure it'll be a fantastic device on par with the S III

So yesterday I traded my note for the optimus g. MOD EDIT profanity removedThis phone had so much promise but just fall short on every turn. Some things I was looking forward too.
Better screen
Better processor
Cooler look
Smaller
And I wanted to try something new. I've had Samsung for 3 years now. And I haven't tried anything else.
Where I was wrong:
Screen sucks! Yeah it has more ppi.. but the screen on all videos has this grainy look to it. I understand that the superamoled is high contrast, but it wasn't the colors it was the video itself.
Screen= fail
plus this screen is now to small... I can't believe how perfect 5+ inches. Is.
Processor = alright
It might just be LG software but this phone isn't as quick as I thought I should be. I mean come on this s4 pro kid such a badass... not really I have to give it to Samsung for making everything in house.. I feel like they are the gods for now on mobile devices
All in all the phone isn't want the note is.. plus I hate seeing 53% battery in only 4 hours of using my device instead of 14 or 16. Well sorry just wanted to make sure no one ever leaves this place... until the next big thing comes out. But honestly this phone is the best hands down. .

Dont do the one x+!!! I originally switched from note 2 to the one x+a couple months ago. I returned it in like 5 days. It was so laggy I couldn't believe it.

I've played with both the HOX+ as well as the LG Optimus G. Honestly after having this phone and playing with those others I don't see how you guys were even curious lol. The S4 Pro is a good chip but its not nearly as oower efficient as our Exynos, and while touchwiz isn't the most attractive overlay, it's easily the least resource intensive and most feature filled. I consider myself to be pretty heavy into the mobile scene and I have yet to find an all around better device than the Note 2.

I have owned literally EVERY high end android device that has been available in the US. Even some that haven't for that matter. But this is by far the best device i've ever owned. It excels in every area. The display is phenomenal, the specs are top notch, and the real world use is where it should be considering the power this thing flaunts. As far as smoothness and fluidity go it's in a league of its own. I've had the note 2, i've had the one x+, I've had the dna, and they cant even hold a candle to this device. All we need now is for some of the awesome devs we have to pump out some JB ROM's and we're golden. The dev support is there though. With all those things considered, I'm going as far as to say this is the best phone ever made IMHO. Thoughts anyone?

Severely doubt that rumor. Samsung is Android's Apple. They will bump as minimally as possible to sell the next model. Quad core, 2gb ram, 16gb storage. Book it.
This phone is the best on the market outside of the Nexus 4. If we can get past this bootimg bull**** from Sprint and LG we'll have a really fun phone. HTC Evo had a very slow takeoff as well, and before you knew it there were too many roms. We're almost there and I love it.

I can honestly say this is he best I've had so far. At first I was considering the iPhone 5, but too many people at my job had it. Did a lot of research on this phone and saw a lot of people bashing it before it even came out. When the phone was released I went to sprint to get a feel for he phone and they didn't even have it on display! No love was given to this phone at first. I took the leap and bought it at bestbuy anyway. Best decision I made as far as picking a phone. My brother got the gs3 and when I showed him my phone he liked the lgog more. Not to mention his phone is always on the charger as opposed to mine lol. Glad this phone is getting some love tho.

At my school (I'm a teenager) everyone has either iPhones or Galaxy or an older android. No one honestly has the Optimus G, as far as I can see.
And everyone is like "I LOVE YOUR PHONE!!!" I am very happy I got this phone.
At first I didn't want it with rumors being LG wasn't the greatest and....no removable backing. But I bought it and it was the best decision ever.
Only thing that would make it better is if the JB update came to my area already

Agreed. I almost didn't want to put a case on it because I like the feel of the phone. A case is a must tho.

Ok so I have Epic 4G Touch. I can upgrade to the S4 right now or should I wait for something better maybe S5. My S2 is still rocking and rolling many many many thanks to all the Developers here.
Thanks Epitaph

Wait. Everything points to s5 being something different. S4 kinda like s3 in design. Plus see what new phone google comes out with.

I think I'll wait for the S4 Mini. The screen is just a bit too large for me.

If your problem is only with large screen then go for it! Because when I bought my S3, my first thought in mind after unboxing was "seriously, why did I even buy this huge phone" (saw S3 first time). Now I don't regret having large screen and I love it now. I'm sure you will get used with it also and start loving the 5" 1920x1080p screen.

My co-worker has it, so I have had a chance to play with it already. It's not much bigger than the E4GT, but I want a phone where I can reach across with my thumb without having my palm activating stuffs on the edge of the screen.
The other reason is the E4GT just start working well enough after all these years, so I'll wait for more stable ROMs first

More stable? I think the ROMs coming out now fire this device are the most stable ones I have ever used, but I'm coming from the EVO Shift.

I'm waiting for the SG4 variant called the Active. Milspec, waterproof, etc. Other than that, I want a Note 2 (yeah, the pixel density isn't as high as the SG4 but whatever).
I don't understand people by saying can I buy this or wait
For what I'm waiting special at this time. I wish my contract could upgrade now. S4 and HTC one both phones are best why not to enjoy with this phone on time . instead of waiting unknown phone and date release come on falks wake up

I would just upgrade. I personally want the HTC One. But I can't upgrade for another year.

The non-removable battery scares me a bit. What is the solution for when it wears out?

I would assume the manufacture warranty would cover it but I'm not sure. Also, it's just my personal preference. I miss HTC and there build quality. The S4 is nice, I would upgrade to it if I wanted another Samsung.

I don't think so. Standard warranties are one year. If it's out of that year, I don't think they'll cover it.

If it last you another year, your upgrade is ready and you get a new phone. But who knows. Go with what you feel comfortable with.
Unremovable battery is not big deal
