Oh God if this is the Galaxy S III....eyegasm!

http://phandroid.com/2012/04/04/new...up-in-a-press-invite-to-be-unveiled-may-22nd/
Omg, if this is the SGS III. That's supposed to be the invitation, and even with only half the phone.......
PURE BEAUTY!!!!

WHAT IS THIS TOM FOOLERY?
Looks like it might've been inspired by jets or metallic items?

Regardless of what you guys think of the GS3, this design (if it is real) is by far the most unique in the Android market thus far.
Man, so sleek and shiny.

It would fit in with reports of them trying to get in on the London Olympics marketing opportunity.....seeing as the location for unveiling is supposed to be London

If this turns out to be true then I guess I'm prepared to get used to TouchWiz. Lol.

No need.....the first ROMs almost always get rid of touchwiz
That's why we flash ROMs and Kernels.....SGS has great dev support and I'm sure there will be a ton of AOSP ROMs etc...just like the SGSII has now.

If that really is the GSIII....... 'Wow' is all I can say !!

Need this. Now.

woww. I really thought I was gonna hold onto my GN until the next nexus device but there's no way I'll be able to resist this.

It is definitely unique. Is that the back? Regardless, the Galaxy Nexus had a "wow factor" but that would have a panty dropping factor.

The one in the invitation looks a bit different than the earlier leaks in terms of that bezel.
They probably exaggerated the curves/angles a bit just like they did in the Galaxy Nexus invitation video that gave a glimpse of the curved body.
I'd want just half the phone based on those looks in the invitational.....haha

Looks classy... Samsung may just yet be the company that finally steals a solid number of users away from Apple. And I don't mean the Android operating system as a whole. I mean that the Galaxy SIII itself will sells millions.
Either way, it's nice to see that Android has a serious manufacturer that isn't Google itself and yet is still willing to create a damn good Android device.

Everyone here is pretty gullible. Besides, we all know a metal finish just results in sweaty, fingerprint filled front. Hah, no thanks. The Nexus and One X have got it right.

I don't think this should be in the GNex section. Even if General.

only SGS has many devs. SGS2 devs most has given up, left, or jumpship to other device, AOSP didnt really work as much as HTC AOSP roms, as not much that do the coding except for few. The only Samsung devices that i see has a long dev support are SGS, Nexus S, Gnex. Other than that, HTC reigns as the dev favourites. SGS2 dev support was ruined by Samsung themselves. I am not sure if they wont do the same to S3. I'll be sticking to Nexus line.

Lot of people getting excited over a pretty non-descript piece of metal Couldn't tell you if it was the front or rear, but it looks like the arse end of a piece of cutlery

hes just trying to sell his product, that is all. what do you expect him to say, anything manufactured by his company and sold by crApple to stay away from? thats something that i would say..

The IP5 may indeed spank the SGSIII in some people's eyes, they do get to have a standard to go against now, it's an endless game of leapfrog and trying to raise the bar.
I'm an outlaw though, it's hard to be an outlaw with an Iphone, that's more of a yuppy/emo/hipster thing.

If it still has that stiff brick like shape its a doa

Won't iPhone 5 be released like 4-5 months after initial international release of S3? That's an eternity for technology. I'd sure hope it beats the S3 handily.

I do believe the iPhone 5 will be a nice device but remember these are the same people that convinced iPhone 4 owners that they needed to by an iPhone 4S because of Siri and people actually believed they owned the best device because of this.
Luckily Android users are smarter then that and do not buy into the whole hype building from these manufacturer's. We need to see the worth in the upgrade or a lot of us will not spend the money like iHippies.
Plus we already saw what iOS 6 is bringing to the table, one of the main focuses is Siri fixes. lol

I dunno...
The thing holding back the GNex, SGSII, SGSIII and other Android devices is the AMOLED screen. If they had the display of the iPhone 4s but larger, it would spank the iPhone with one hand tied behind it's back.

Samsungs got it in the bag with sgs3 and note 2 ....keeping the excitement alive with new innovation instead of flipping the old one around like Apple is doing. Seriously i was expecting much more from Apple they certinally have enough money to try new stuff so why arent they? i guess they are done, they are being blinded by the few ignorant sheep that call them "god" of phones. What about smart people who know their was something better from the G1 days,Apple cant compete i guess.

I would attribute the difference in software performance to the fact that companies put most of their resources into iOS development first then android. So you get a much more refined software on ios then you would on android.

It's honestly a flop. The back of the device is cute but besides that.. 4 Inch 4s. Same exact design and everything. I knew it was going to be bad but not this bad lol. I'm not even a legit Apple hater because i wanted the first Iphone (don't you lie and say you didn't want it when it first came out). Pretty funny though to be honest since i've been saying the 5 would be this ever since the rumors began like last year. :highfive: The ONLY thing i can honestly say apple wins over android is Apps. Been saying it for years even though i'm an android fan it's just the honest truth. The apps are better and always comes out first on IOS.

All-in-all a pretty standard upgrade across the board in typical apple fashion.
FINALLY the screen is at least somewhat larger. Fit and finish as always looks to be top notch. The single dynamic antenna is cool. I'm sure the new A6 processor will benchmark impressively. The camera looks to be even better and will likely be the best on a smart phone for the time being.
Some disappointments would be the lack of NFC technology (which Apple holds a lot of patents on, I would expect it to be integrated in two years on the new hardware model or next years refresh at the earliest), and the fact that battery life appears to be the same as the 4S (no improvement), new connector is kinda a bummer (although it was definitely time to upgrade)
Overall its a pretty substantial spec/hardware bump all around, and since people still buy them in droves I don't think Apple had much reason to do much of anything else.
A lot of the improvements are also part of iOS 6, the biggest of which appears to be seamless facebook integration from nearly anywhere.

Very true, which is why it was such a sigh of relief when all the GSIII's in the U.S. have identical specs.
In addition to a more refined software experience, the huge iPhone user base using essentially the same phone ensures that when a breakthrough app is conceived it will inevitably be made for iOS first and foremost in nearly all cases

You know that samsung commercial ? Where the ifans are waiting in line and in awe of the samsung galaxy s3's ? :cyclops: Yea that just happened to me in my daughters ballet class last night. Had like 3 different parents stop watching their kid to watch me video tape mine because they were in awe from my phone. Thats wassup. :good: They all had iphones which made it even more funny for myself. They were all like, "wow that is beautiful" "thats so big, but i like it" You should have seen their face when i unleashed the slow motion feature on them. WHOA !!!!! hahahahaha."What kind of phone is that" "Is that a phone" "Who makes it", Man they all lost it. Thought others would enjoy this story and if any one else has had the samsung commercial experience with their Note 2's. hahahahahahaha :laugh:

kinda like how Apple pays game developers not to release their games on Android, and keep it an iOS exclusive. (a sad tactic btw)

iPhones = sell 20 million devices (probably a lot more, actually) easily, and a metric frakton of Otterboxes.
Nexus = sell a rather paltry number, no big sales except right when it first becomes available, no long term ecosphere behind it even in spite of it being a solid device, etc.
I mean really, go to any store, anywhere - Best Buy, Fry's, MicroCenter, Sears, hell even a 7-11 - and you'll find stuff for the iPhones but you won't find diddly Jack Squat for anything else. It's sad that this is how the world operates but, that's how the world operates.

Nothing has really changed so far.
OtterBox has positioned themselves as a "premium smartphone case maker" and for their ridiculously overpriced products, they're exactly where they want to be.

Yeah, Spigen seems like the next best thing, but I'm seeing a lot of reviews on Amazon about misalignment over the power button. Spigen said they are aware of the issue and a fix is in the works, but it sounds like the "bad" ones are still in stock. Returns are a PITA.

Yea it may not be water proof (but it sure helps with the water splashes) but the dust protection for the dirt roads and woods we ride, it offers GREAT protection.

I still can't believe they made an Otterbox for the HTC Vivid and not the Nexus 5. I know a bunch of people with the N5 and have not met a single person who also owned the HTC Vivid during my 2 years with the device.

I had a Commuter for my HTC One (2 actually) and I loved it. I'm using a Cruzerlite TPU case now and it is also really nice. (Not to mention $13 shipped). Sad that we really don't have quality options yet for this phone

I doubt the CS knows for sure. Just like CS at pretty much all companies. They usually don't know anything but what is on their trouble shooting flow chart in front of them.
