Dear god don't let the defy be a reference point for this. From what I can see (7 company defys) its nothing like
motorola would have you believe. Only 2 don't have a cracked screen and all have dust under the screen. Either a really bad batch or bloody good marketing!

Just posting a question as I want to know and hear if anyone is even contemplating on making a switch? I'm no iPhone fanboy and think the Samsung Galaxy S 3 surpasses the iPhone 5 on many levels. :good:
Edit: The title states Samsung Galaxy S II but I meant III
I am but i will keep my sg3 as well as my one x.

How dare you. This is an insult to the galaxy s2 which despite being a little old, is way better than the iPhone 5

I won't be switching to the iPhone 5 because I love T-Mobile, I love tinkering with Android, and because I love my SIII.
However, everyone keeps going on about how it looks the same as the 4s and I just can't agree with this. Yes, the front looks the same (just longer) but they really have updated the features that I hated about the 4/4s. For example, I thought it was ridiculous that they made the back of the 4 and 4s glass. It looked lame and was just one more piece to easily break. I also didn't like the silver bezel (not a fan of it on the SIII either).
Now that the bezel is black and the back of the phone is no longer glass, I am actually a fan of it. I especially like that it is a bit thinner than the 4/4s and skinnier than the SIII.
If I was a big iTunes user, needed my phone to seamlessly work with my Macbook Pro (Android sucks at this), and enjoyed the simplicity of IOS I would probably get it. But I'm definitely sticking with Android. The SIII is the most solid phone I've ever owned.
Apple says the gs3 basically is an iPhoneso I got the best iPhone already

True that the SGS 3 might be like the iPhone 5, but I would take the SGS 3 over the 5 any day. The only nice thing I like about the 5 is the aluminum body and how solid it feels (if its anything like the 4). Other than that, they can have it

Why would you want to downgrade phones? Isn't the whole point of getting a NEW phone to UPgrade? iPhone 4SXL is lame...
OP just set himself up...
Just got my first Samsung laptop.
Trying to see if any advantages.
Meaning being the gs3 is Samsung
And the laptop.
Kies is preinstalled other than that
Not much else different.

My wife is a long time Samsung junky so after having problems with her HP laptop we ended up replacing it with a tiny 12" Samsung laptop and it has been amazing. Battery easily lasts 5-6 hours and its very lightweight but powerful. We are very happy with it.
Same with our two S3s, Samsung 3D LED TV, Samsung 3D BluRay, 6x Samsung 3D Glasses, Samsung 3D Sound Bar...she really is a Samsung junky. I expect when we move to a bigger place it will also be Samsung washer and drier and definitely a Samsung fridge... I dont mind though. They make sexy products!

"With Google" was a prototype. I prefer the nexus logo.

What do you mean notification light being a deal breaker? It was confirmed to have one weeks ago and if you don't want it, just disable it?
A notification light is far from anything that could deal break me.

Yes, lets use metal so I can have dents in my phone...
can't they make it even thinner? It looked so much like nexus, even with improved cpu it won't make it any smoother.

Metal was so 2009. With newer, lighter and tougher materials like carbon fiber, you aren't going to see many more phones with any type of metal in them. Yes, regular "plastic" can have a cheap feel. But there are lots of newer process we are seeing on these materials that can give it a high quality look and even better feel than metal. Even so, I don't think the Nexus 4 displays much of a high quality look to it. My guess is Google is trying to keep the costs down to make it affordable in the Play Store.
headphone jack on the top? pooof mind bloooooown!

I have a Sprint GNEX.
I've read how the phone is supposed to trim when its idle for blah long and charging, and other stuff but I am just curious myself to see when it actually trims.
Is there anyway I can see this? Logcats? (I dont have any experience with logcats)
Thanks!!

Lol sorry this is not what I meant. Trust me, I'm a strong believer and supporter of it. It has made my phone feel brand new.
Just the curiosity in me wants to see the specific times that the trim function is called.

Mines has held up very well from drops on to hard surfaces multiple times, 3-4ft high, but that's with a bumper case.
My bro prefers to not use cases so his GN took a few drops without any case and it just nicked/scratched the edges a tiny bit, screen had no damage.
His S4 screen cracked just from being in the pocket.
LOL
My other friend's galaxy nexus survived falls for 2 years and this one couldn't survive for 2 days smh
