Buy s3 or keep galaxy nexus

Who is keeping their galaxy nexus and who is buying the s3 please share. And would galaxy nexus get some of the features that is on s3 ? I wonder if any devs will do it ?

In my opinion the Galaxy Nexus Has better android experience, and at the moment I don't think we need quad-core. you can find some apk of the features of the GS3 , also with the touchwiz (that I don't like)in the forum.

Nah, I love my Nexus.

I love it also but lately I had been having problems with charging it. It doesn't charge sometimes and sometimes it does but it charges if you have the phone off so weird

I haven't decided yet.

pre-ordered the S3. I feel that i'll cycle between both devices and find out which one is better for me nowadays. I find that the camera on the GNex isn't as good I thought it was :/ but then again its still a phone camera sensor. That being said, I'll have both phones for use and cherish each one

If I had the spare money, I'd get the SGS3 too. That way, I'd be able to switch back and forth between the two. Alas, I don't. I'm quite content with my Galaxy Nexus, though.

the prize difference is just to damn high, apart from the S3 being a step back in terms of android 4.0 (hardware keys, no multitasking key, menu key).
i know that they want to keep it consistent with the old galaxy people but HTC managed to do the change at least half way through.
also, the new nexus phone(s) are coming up pretty soon, so why would you give up nexus advantages for a non nexus phone

I won't exchange and give extra to get the s3. I'd get it if I had some extra cash so that I can keep both.

Keep my Nexus. Samsung is starting to fail.

The S3 is just another Samsung phone but the nexus is a true Google phone.

no chance I will ever buy another non-true Google Phone....

Dual screen Dual play possible?

Just wondering if anyone knows away to make this happen. Have been searching for the past week so figured I would start a thread. Love this feature on my Optimus G and is the main reason I am not using my Note 2 right now. Use it a lot and direct mirroring isn't cutting it for me

Guessing this isn't possible. Would be awesome to have. Really surprised the Note 10.1 doesn't have this either

Can't believe I am the only one that cares about this lol. Oh well maybe with the Note 3

Not really sure what you are talking about. What exactly is dual play?

What are you refering to? Multiwindow two games at once?

Oh its like dual screens on a pc. What do you put on your big screen and then use your phone for?
Sent from GN2 using XDA app

Its an awesome feature I think. Once connected to the tv. You can direct mirror like on the Note but say you get a text. You can go and answer it while the movie still plays.
I actually use this on trips. My phone is like my dvd player. But right now on the Notes 2 and 10.1. Once movie is playing you cant leave it without having the movie stop and it direct mirror your phone

Newer Samsung phones uses MTP (media transfer protocol) as oppose to the traditional UMS (universal mas storage) to transfer data. Think of UMS as usb hard drives and flash drives. MTP is incompatible most any usb but computers.

It is still compatible with the PS3. However you can only use PS3 to pull/browse/play media from Samsung. You cannot use the Samsung to push/send the media files to the PS3.

looking for tablet to use as dailey driver phone

I just can't see a thread dedicated to using a Samsung Galaxy tablet as a everyday phone?
I have seen on other sites people using their Tab 3 10.1 or Note 8 as primary cell phones but I really need to ask you experts.
Can you tell me what tablets will accept an ATT card and work as a phone?
Thanks a bunch...
Tom

no tablet on the tab 3 line has phone/text radio. however if you have enough data you could use mo+ or talkatone for phone service

Thanks, I just purchased a Tab 4 10.1 and rooted it.
I did read in an article that was putting down using tablets as phones that one of the guys was using a Samsung Tablet as a phone but is said that he put his sim card in it and I have not seen a Samsung Tablet that lets you open the back (not counting my Note 3)...
Thanks for the info and now I need to work on ERick to make an Alliance ROM for this..., LOL

No the international version of these tabs all work as phones. At least the 7" & the 8".
I have been using the T211 on T-Mo as an everyday phone. It should work with AT&T as well.
