Which of these 2 devices are you guys most interested in? If they both come out with LTE on Sprint and ICS of course? I personally am Wowed by the camera in our ET4G and hope that the next one only gets better ... what do you guys think?
Obviously it'll be the SGS3
GNexus is already old and barely a step up from the ET4G
I dunno it's gonna be a hard decision. Im sure the Sprint GalNex will be out much sooner.

Your talking about a phone that could drop in a month vs a phone that is not even going to be announced until Mwc ....then will sell in maybe June or July internationally and sprint maybe Oct or November ....might as well just say next evo in there too ...

True but it might be the obvious choice for updates other than that I heard the camera is not up to par with the ET4G and the Evo comment I have to say that it would have to blow me away and they are becoming less open than Sammy

I am just saying sprint has said 12 different lte devices by end of year ... the first will be sg nexus but when will others be out are they able to be hacked ie s-off if HTC etc ... who knows my user experience with 3d says they will have to put a great phone out to get me to ever go back to HTC ... if Samsung is upgrading CPU and gpu for sprint version of galaxy nexus they may upgrade cam and screen or none .... we won't know until they say ... just a guessing game huh..

I hope they release it soon but they seriously deserve the bad press for releasing that piece of crap Note 10.1. People new to android tablets getting it will never touch android tablets again after using that P.O.S.
The Asus TF700 needs to be better marketed/advertised since it's the best tablet (better than iPad 3 IMO) out there.
Yeah Sprint hasn't finished a build for phone yet =(

I remember reading that our official JB release is on August 29th. Not too long before we get an official update.

EDIT: Nope. You're right. All other sources are saying that that's the international version. I really wish we'd get ours sooner. I guess Samsung and Sprint want to get a chance to bloat our phones with unnecessary stuff again.

Not just the international version, T-Mo also has a leaked OTA.

Nope. People like the Original note but not the 10.1. The bad press came from this review, the verge, and other sites.
I have the TF700 and just specs-wise it's far superior and cheaper IIRC. The build quality and design is on-par and subjectively better than the iPad 3.
The Note 10.1 feels like it was made last year and build quality is absolutely horrible, even if it was a $100 chinese tablet. Sadly, it's a $500 tablet. And what's with the ****ty res screen? They make WQXGA-like screens for the iPad 3 and the TF700 has a full HD screen but they still use a non-HD screen.
I think that the tmo version could JumpStart our development too
Cm10 was built from scratch while the tmo jb is very close to what out phone would use
Although a new kernel would probably have to be made

Jellybean is smooth no doubt, but it's not optimized yet so touchwiz is actually faster it seems. (basing my opinion on fps for many games.)

The note is so much faster and smoother its not close actually having owned both tablets. Asus and their build quality is just as bad. Read the threads comparing both many Asus owners have left for the note.
Long story short I called sprint just to see when the jellybean update is going to hit the galaxy s3. The rep told me they will be pushing the update out between today and tomorrow. Do anyone else call BS on this?

Sprint told me they would wave the activation fee, put a note in my account and all I would have to do is call them after purchasing the SIII. Called the, they said no note existed, they said they wouldn't. Meh. the phone costs 235, no 200 guys.
The Sprint reps saying the update is coming I'd bet are thinking of the Nexus S update, which n ow DOES appear to be coming this week:

it doesn't make much sense why they wouldn't update the better selling S3 first and help promote it, rather than updating a less desirable phone first.. but hey, nothing new, sprint always does everything backwards..

Not true in this case. Google does not support Sprint's version of the Nexus since the drivers are proprietary. Sprint will have Google's build to work from, but its up to the carrier and manufacturer to do the update in this case...

I don't disagree...but there are many iphans that argued the only thing that would ever surpass the 4s would be the next model of iphone, just as all previous models of iPhone have carried it without interruption.
You also have to look at the simple metrics involved...there are only so many people out there to buy subsidized phones...samsung , with their multi price level offerings and a killer flagship have made a huge impact on the market just prior to release...and have plans to further impact things around the time that we will see the next model iPhone

you are correct sir....i think it's funny when people act like the 4s is 3 years old ....And Samsung will make an impact when the I5 is released with the "note II"...which is why Apple just added the GS3 and the "note" to it's lawsuit...so Apple can have a jump start on attacking the Note II

It's a year old, you can't compare it to a phone that has been out for a few months with the pace that technology changes.
No need to move this it has nothing to do with the Apple versus Samsung case. The sales of the iPhone 4 S has diminished because the new model is coming out. And the iPhone 5 will out sell the Galaxy S 3 because of all the Apple sheep out there. To be honest, I can see how the iPhone 5 will be better than our phone.

you have a point about technology...but look at the original EVO..that lasted(and held up) for what...2 years?..THe 4s is just about 11 months old actually...now think back to the release date(Oct 11 2011) and all the sales..and think about the price and how it was suppose to be the best thing going...to only run for 11 months?...Come on now..
If people were told on the release date that an Iphone "twice as good" would be released just 11 months later...how many do you think would have just waited?
on edit: The GS3(international) was released on may 29 2012...thats 7 months its unfair to compare phones that are only 7 months apart? For that kind of money? THat's crazy...either way Apple knew what Samsung was doing which is exactly why the I5 is being pushed out so soon...
Now if you recall the GS2 was released in may 9 of 2011 and when the 4s was released 5 months later are you telling me that nobody compared it or suggested how much better it was than ANY OTHER phone(including the GS2)???
Can't wait to get that new iPhone so I will be legally retarded

Sent from my LT22i using xda premium
Unlocked sprint iphone 5? What is unlocked mean when it comes to CDMA phones? I think it means you can use it for sprint or boost mobile. That's it. You made a few mistakes:
1. CDMA phones worth less as far as resell value goes compare to GSM phones (assuming same phone)
2. Now you'll have to deal with a smaller screen
3. You're stuck with only 14gb of storage, yes you won't really have a chance to touch that other 2gb
4. You'll be suffering from the data speed of sprint...this is probably the biggest loss (assuming you went from t-mobile to sprint)
just my opinion and why I would NEVER have made a trade like that.

Why would you come ask our opinion on your trade? If you really want my opinion, I'll say you got burned and the other guy got one hell of a deal. If you want someone to praise your decision to get rid of the Note 2 for an iPhone, then you're in the wrong place buddy. It ain't that you switched from the Note to the iPhone, because I get it, the Note 2's size isn't for everyone, it's the fact that you left Android for iOS, that was your mistake, but I'm sure you'll realize what you've done sooner or later.
For me? Its the stupidest thing someone could do.
