Yeah i though about that as well...I just hate that outside of being free from Sense and TW its just behind...hardware.

Only thing that I liked about the HTC was the dedicated camera button.
Everything about the G3 is better. Pictures are close on each with a slight lead to HTC in low light.
Get the G3

Had a 4GLTE for about 3 weeks and decided to switch. They are both on par with each other(hardware, software, dev team, etc). The camera is better on the LTE but sound(music, video recording) is way better on the s3. I decided to return the LTE because of the recent apps issue, screen scratched WAY too easy, and people were bending the phone right above the kickstand(i beat on my phones). S3 is a finger print magnet to the highest degree lol.
hope this helps.

Wait for the iPhone 5...

Yes...yes i did, and by that i mean i didn't look.

Yes there are other threads on this, but after reading about the LTEVO's weak build (bends in the middle), non-removable battery, and so on, I opted for the S3. It's phenomenal. The camera is great, it's zippy, and the software is very well done. The Galaxy Nexus is also a tempting option, but the older hardware and weak camera made me choose the S3. Good luck in your search!

i'm also waiting on the iphone5 specs before i make my decision

It's got some nice additions, ie sdcard slot, kickstand, and larger battery, but it's definitely not as sexy.

No real point in upgrading to a sprint lte phone right now as there is no lte towers. You will be stuck with sprints slow 3g. Best to stick with the e4gt until the galaxy siii comes out.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
You are right. However in my house I have no 4G except upstairs window. When home just keep wifi on and use my own internet. Even 3G and calls iffy in house. Without my Airwave my phone would be a brick most of time. Hope so called Network Vision improves coverage. I have no idea when lte is turned on if that will be any better than my current wimax 4g.

Have you played with both phones at the same time. Also are you bored with your phone? These are reasons to upgrade and of course do YOU think its worth it to you to upgrade. I have seen I love Gnex threads and I returned my Gnex threads, at the end of the day its really your preference. Go to Best Buy and check them all out... Jus' My Opinion

I made a thread about this the other day too because I have an upgrade so I went down to the sprint store and played with the Gnex and I dont know if there was something wrong with that one or what but it ran like ****! Force closes everywhere, could not get facial unlock to work. I just installed ICS Hydra rom on my E4GT and it runs SOOO much better than the Gnex. I also talked to a sprint employee and they said the E4GT is far superior. I wouldn't do it!

Angry much? does it affect you directly? Not bashing it and I'm not the only one that thinks its not a worthy upgrade. I've had the gs3 and have first hand experience with it. By the way Ive pointed out good things with it also.
Let's just say the ones like yourself are the minority. I've also had first hand experience with it ( even flashed paranoid android on it for a friend ) the phone is an upgrade. I've done side by side app loading and games run much better too ( dead trigger runs at 40+ fps vs the 20-30 it gets on the t989 ) I don't know what your beef with it is. Seems to me like you're over infatuated wuh this device. Be that as it may its just annoying to read your gs3 bashing in every thread. How would you feel if I did the same as you and belittled the t989 in every thread?? Its just unnecessary.

Its a small upgrade with more ram and newer CPU but, Its still just a phone dude...take a deep breath. Go ahead and bash it. I have other more important things to worry about. Job, wife, kid, life in general. When you come back to earth and realize the phone/s in your hand are just pieces of electronic equipment that have a life of roughly two years, sometimes less then talk to me, have a nice night.

Exactly why I said he must've been talking about himself lol its cool to have an opinion. Its not cool to keep rubbing it in peoples faces over and over again as he does. Especially when its widely considered false. Anywho back on topic.. I feel like it will be a long while before we get JB. This article is referring to the international. All the gs2 minus the t989 runt have the same exynos/mali 400. Won't that cause some issues in porting if I'm not mistaken? Anywho I hope I'm wrong for all our sakes lol JB has made a lot of headway on this phone but it isn't close to how JB handles on the galaxy nexus. I flash my home girls gnex at least twice a month and it really makes me want to sell this phone and pick up a gnex lol. No bugs and its actually noticeably smoother. That gallery loads so fast and flips through photos so fluidly you'd think there was a quad core CPU in that thing.

As part of the T-Mobile BOGO promotion, I got the Galaxy S II, and my mother, the Galaxy S III. I recommended her to get the Galaxy S III for her first Android smartphone, but then when I went to T-Mobile they said they had a school sale going on, buy their newest 4G phones, and get another selected phone for free (mail in-rebate in the form of a Visa card with the amount you paid for the secondary phone.) While the Galaxy S II is the child of the Galaxy S III, they are almost similar. There is no reason to hate either phones, because honestly I've had the chance to play with both (My SII and my mom's SIII) and they are awesome phones. The SIII has a few more features and slightly better hardware, but isn't that what you pay for?
Edit : Also with Gallery3D I prefer to switch it with the 3RD party application, QuickPic. Uses less RAM, (thus less battery) and to me is much faster. Give it a shot if you're looking for a fantastic image viewer.
None of this has to do with the OP... Seriously, if you think people care about your opinion on a phone, you're in for a rude awakening.

Why would we know about the S3?
I can comment and say....
Get the GS3. Try it for a week or two then pass it on like I did.
One X in real day usage is a far better experience.

Its personal preference really, I for one would never have another Samsung device, just for the pure fact I don't like them anymore. I love my HOX, I must be one of the lucky ones that don't have the problems. But I'd keep with the HOX if I was you.
And quit with the sarcastic comments "Stay in school", really uncalled for.
Cheers.
I have the same doubt like you man...I am very confused between S3 and HOX...I always had samsung, but I really really hate them, due its pathetic plastic case and the crap touchwiz.
My concern is related to wifi and antenna issues of HOX...thats the only one reason i did not buy the HOX yet.:crying:
Can someone help me too?
Seriously guys what's with this complete indecision going on? I hope it's not contagious. I'd hate to have indecision. I think. Well, maybe not. I dunno. I might like it.

One of the reasons why I don't like Samsung is because they are so plastic. As to the HOX WiFi issues, I've had no issue. Not sure if I have a later phone or what, but all seems fine. Brought mine about 3 months ago.
Cheers.
OK, seeing as I've used both I'll give my views...
1. The screen on the One X is VASTLY superior to the S3 - the viewing angles are better and it just looks more natural.
2. TouchWiz, although I hate it, IS more fluid and suffers from less lag than Sense.
3. A lot of the gimmicks are useless but don't hinder the performance
4. I don't like the buttons are the base of the S3 - too close to the bottom of the unit, they look like an after-thought
5. I like the notification toggles in the S3 - they're handy. Why HTC got rid of 'Quick Settings' in the stock ROM build is beyond me
6. Having a removable battery/SD card IS a benefit and one HTC should have catered for
7. Autobrightness is quite low on the S3 - my Dad has to turn the screen up a lot for him to see it properly (he is getting old tho! )
8. WiFi works fine on both the S3 and One X from my experience, no issues with either
Overall I prefer the One X but the S3 isn't as bad as people think. OK it's a bit platicky but other than that it is a good phone - just not for me
neva had any issues with wifi... this is an excellent device... my colleague has an S3 and never saw him using any of the fancy features that S3 boasts about... he was going gaga over some of the features, but then he's also had some software issues... the touchwiz is the crappiest ones out there... there's nothing premium about the S3... i hate samsung personally...:cyclops:
hey again guys i'm just going to stay with my hox and i'm not having problems with anything i liked the s3 because of the smart features but i rooted my one x and evreything is working fine and actually there is an app called smart stay does the same thing that the feature of the s3 does and there is another called super video that gives you that pop up video thing of the s3 if you have an one x be sure to download those to apps and thanks for your answers everyone and stay high on android don't go with the iphone!
I have a HOX. Awesome phone but I HATE the stock Internet browser on there everyone u scroll up it pulls menus up. And it has a severe lack of multitasking or switching between apps , even the iPhone has a double tap on the home button that brings up recent apps. The screen on HOX is amazing tho and tbh I don't think sense is all that bad I liked it. I have my eyes on the S3 tho, I like it but as I'm hearing all this stuff about problems with it I'm thinking im gonna wait till next wednesday and see what Apple has to offer with the iPhone 5

I've been a long time iPhone user, since the first one, and I just bought a Galaxy s3 and can honestly say I don't miss it at all. The new one is just more of the same....
This is probably going to get locked down real fast.....but its definitely a BIG dissappointment. Some of my friends are turning into hypocrites real fast saying they'll buy it.

Actually, what we really need would be Google Wallet support for our GS3's without the hack-around. But we know that wouldn't work with Apple since they're now Anti-Google. Forget where i saw it... think it was on the news earlier, but i like how they put it. Something along the lines of "There is so much competition between Apple and Google, that Apple decided to recreate the world." in regards to Apple's new maps system.

GS3 owner can have an opinion about other products specially if they are direct competitors, it is not about making he threat about OS vs OS, but general opinions about the product just announced.

Apple is at it again, same old phone design. Lame is what I think it is. Honestly, whats changed? Basically nothing besides LTE. The event was more of a " we sold a billion of these and a trillion of these, and oh yeah heres the new iPhone 5 we gave it a bigger scree, now go wait in line"

This.
Its almost impossible to get (cheap) nfc tags in Canada. I asked a Best Buy rep at the Eaton Centre store in Toronto a couple of days ago, and he had no idea what NFC was.
I was really hoping the new iphone would have it so that it would become 'mainstream', but guess we have to wait another year now. Also, doesn't help that stupid S Beam is incompatible with Android Beam (try transferring photos to any non-GS3 phone, it will fail..till we get updated to JellyBean)

i remember reading reviews almost 'ranting' about how light the galaxy s and galaxy s ii were. people were saying 'too light', 'does not feel premium because phone does not feel substantial in hand', 'iphone is perfect with high quality weight to it', 'sometimes not sure if in pocket or not'. something along those lines.
and i read this on a youtube comment but I think it could hold some truth. could Apple have not included nfc (even if it wanted to/why wouldn't they want to?), because it already finalized its aluminum design? fail.

What is it you miss about the S3 or don't like about the N4?

I was getting tired of the sgs3 regarding updates. 5.0 will come soon and we aren't even on 4.2 . once I had the nexus which I got as a replacement due to Tmobile not having sgs3 in stock ( don't ask weird situation). I realized I missed the drop down toggles and how quick it was to silent the phone. There's also no WiFi calling which is only important to me at work since I work in the basement and need to have for my wife and emergency calls. Also lack of SD which I though wasn't going to be an issue is. I hate having to transfer all my pictures and the ones that don't fit I'd rather not have stored on the cloud. I guess aside from getting quick updates and vanilla android, its not such an upgrade for me. It us for others but the sgs3 is more my style for the features that I use it for. :/. Getting a brand new one from Tmobile at non cost due to what happened. I do have to return the n4 though but I think I won in this situation.

You are a classy fella aren't you
loving my N4 don't regret giving my S3 to the wife.
Good
I love T-Mobile :highfive:
I think I would rather buy the HTC one over the S4
Tmobile fb just announce s4. Next week baby
Just wondering what the s4 will do that my s3 can't?
I've never been a fan of LG devices... but this is one I might just be tempted to get...

I knew the Adreno 330 was going to be a beast of a chip but I had no idea it would clock like THAT!
Its a T-Mobile build too... Note the build fingerprint... "lge/g2_tmo_us"
One way or another I'm waiting for Snapdragon 800 devices to drop later this year before upgrading... That's just insane!
S4
Thinking of upgrading from S3 to S4.... Is it worth the money ?????

Early reports say no... And the bootloader is locked as well. They managed to root it but it may be awhile before custom ROMs can be installed. Battery life is worse than the One as well (its marginally better than the battery life of the S3 by early accounts).
If you have an S3, I would recommend waiting at least until Google I/O to see what they have up their sleeves... The Snapdragon 800 devices are coming this year and they look to be beasts... Hell do a Google on "LG D801" and see what I mean...
Tegra 4i is coming too. Its too early to jump into another device in my opinion - the S3 just has so much life left in it.
Point taken, I think i'll wait for a while and will also check out the LG, besides I am addicted to flashing Custom Roms ..... by the way the toggle 2g app is pretty good for conserving Battery, I have a very heavy Phone usage that includes 4 Email Accounts set on Push and several hours of call time daily and still the battery lasts me the whole day and that app alone is reason enough for me to stay away from phones that are still under early stages of Rom Development. Thanks for the Fast response btw
