Why not? I personally can't stand iphone....

Don' get an iPhone or a nokia.
Android is open.
iOS and Windows Phone arent.
If you like to change stuff go for the SGS3 or SGS2

P.S.
If I helped you in some way hit it!

i have a iphone 4s jailbreaked its a good phone go and get it

SIII would be the best choice, since it has/will have great development. Iphone is great, but not as SIII

Iphone is better.
Ios is good how it is, android isnt. You need root. Overrclock. Tweaks. To prevent lagg. And yes, also on high end devices, android laggs.
Less malware etc due to scanning of app store, more stability.
Your device will get 2 years long system updates, like the iphone 3gs still gets ios 6.
And there is way less fragmentation. Almost all device run ios 5 or higher

with me alway change new something daily. we can do everything whit android.although iphone so beaty but after time using you fell retired.you can change rom..etc.android alway interesting

I should go for an android phone,
@voetbalremco I know, ios is good, but android is just sooo customizable, ofcourse when you jailbreak ios it is even awesomer.
It's a choice, but I think android is just ''cheaper'' than ios, we have to exept that...
Ios is controlled by Apple and Android is open source, so everyone can build it..

Windows 8 on US Galaxy S3?

Alright, with Windows 8 around the corner, was wondering if anyone is working on Win8 arm port for our Galaxy s3's (and im not talking about the international version cause that one got exynos which will never be compatible with windows environment due to lack of drivers and low ram) but our Galaxy S3 runs on same chipset (S4 Plus) that win8 tablets will be running so maybe somone's is planning on port?!

Nope.

Anything (almost) is possible. But I highly doubt it. Android on the MS Surface (ARM flavor) is more likely.

A future Samsung wp8 phone may be based on the GS3 hardware. That could get wp8 rolling at least.

Won't happen. Android is open source so rom makers can make their roms as they want however windows phone 8 is not. If somebody released a rom if even possible Microsoft would come down on them like a tornado and rightly so.

i had the exact same question.

It's possible to have Windows 8 on the s3 I guess, but it's not open source?
Not sure if Microsoft would approve

That's the best thing they could do. The SGS3 outsold the iPhone 4s in the US, they could ride that success train easily.

I don't recall the GS3 being ARM-based to actually support Windows 8 RT.....

Any Microsoft WinCrap software is NOT open source .. so for anyone trying to port that over to our phones would be illegal .. and if someone trys to port Windows 8 RT onto an SGS3 .. it definately WOULD NOT be on XDA.

What mobile processor is not Arm based? Razr I's.

I can't think of a single reason you'd want Windows 8 on your phone anyway.
Besides, getting it to run on any ARM based mobile is about a lot more than just having an ARM based processor.

[Q] So long Galaxy S3... Hello iPhone 5

As the title says, I'm switching over to the iPhone 5 come Friday morning. I'm selling my S3 back to AT&T, they will offer you $225 for it. I'm wondering if any of you guys are doing the same.

The one thing apple has with iOS is its always upgraded to all devices. Not fragmented like android. We still don't have jelly bean. Also build quality. I'm getting tired of plastic $600 phones. At least apple uses quality materials. Also the iPhone has created a culture and had captured peoples hearts. its why they will always be on top.

Yeah that makes sense since the Android market share is already above 50% and iOS is still around 30%. I guess with those percentages Apple is most definitely still on top. LOL
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Apple is on top as far as one phone model outselling any android model. I know the s3 recently outsold the 4s but what do you expect when everyone knows that it is very likely that a new phone would soon come out. New phone coming out means that better hardware will soon be available as well as the current hardware should be cheaper.
Android is on top as far as market value goes though by obviously having the largest share of the smart phone market.
I hate when people compare the fragmentation of android and apple. It is not conceivable to have every android device being kept with the latest android OS simply because it would be far too costly to do so. There are thousands of different models of android phones which have different hardware which further requires different software and drivers to operate their phones. How can someone compare keeping less than 10 devices up to date with the latest OS versus keeping thousands of devices up to date with the latest os?

What you call fragmentation is really called choice, which is better for the consumer. In an anticompetitive market consumers lose out. Apple’s anticompetitive market also contributes greatly to a lack of innovation. iOS is basically the same crap it has been since the first iteration.
It is surprising that you are on XDA forums and you haven't discovered Black Jelly.

I was an iPhone user for four years before I jumped to the atrix and now the galaxy 3. I would never go back but I can honestly say the most intriguing feature of the iphone 5 is the graphics capability. It is definitely unmatched in its class. But its never enough to get me back. Ive been sober for two years now with no urge to go back.

I agree with you about Apple's build quality - - it is very good. However, I'm perfectly happy with the build quality of my S3 as well. As for fragmentation, I have to laugh. Just because different gen iPhones run the same iOS version doesn't mean Apple enables all features for all phones. iOS is becoming very fragmented, they just disguise it better than Android.
And even the new iPhone has a tiny screen. My wife will get the new iPhone, but I'd never consider switching back after having used Android for the last 18 months.

Windows 8

Definitely shows promise, but I'm locked into Android for the time being.
Just pulled out my HD2, which has WP7.5 on it (giving to my bro for a loaner), and it is a slick interface. Zune may have flopped, but it is just nice to use.
But, I'm Google-locked for now.

Not even remotely interesting. User interface is atrocious.

Beautiful phones softwate and hardware wise. Run extremely smooth especially the lumia 920. I like android for the freedom but if i had to choose a business phone it would be a windows phone 8 device. Apps are still far behind as their new. If you dont play games tho then they have apps for everything productivity wise.

Lumia 920 looks pretty nice. I have an upcoming hardware upgrade and since I'm buying the Nexus 4 outright, I'll upgrade to the Lumia to give it a try. I hope that Microsoft won't pull another Windows Phone 7 not upgradable to Win8 thing.

I have always thought the same way. It looks very nice as a business phone especially that Windows OS is mostly used in offices at organizations so it should pair and integrate better with Windows Phone I guess, however, they seem either more expensive or same price to high-cost Android phones, so this makes it harder to pick a WIndows Phone if I can get a similar specifications running Android which will also fit well as a business phone

I don't know how you didn't understand my post I clearly said windows 8 pro on my Pc, but I agree win 8 on a smartphone or tablet would be complete garbage compared to android, its a no brainer win8 mobile clearly sucks but so did android before ICS an jellybean came along, I absolutely despised gingerbread an anything before it compared with iOS back then.

Fyi All windows 8 operating systems can be considered mobile now. Just depends on what hardware its on. Tablets with keyboard attachments are going to be huge in 2013.

No they aren't. Just because companies will make them doesn't mean they will be huge. Adding a keyboard attachment defeats the entire point of a tablet and I think the market will respond accordingly.

I think Windows 8 phones might start to catch on in enterprises but for the mainstream users they will probably stick with Apple or Android. How well the phones integrate to the Office suite of products will drive the success or failure of the Windows 8 OS in my opinion.

Friends and their Smartphones

I just wanted to ask, if you face the daily problems like me.
I have a Galaxy Nexus and I bought it because it has the pure Android.
In my private life there are those who have an s2 and are happy with it and do not want to get a new android version because "then everything is new and I don't want to explore my smartphone"
Then there are the Applers. I do not think I have to add informations about them.
And last but not least there are those who always buy a new Samsung and think they are the best now because they have the best smartphone on market.
And every group tells me, that I am stupid because I tell them valid arguments to prove that their smartphones are just not as "cool" or "that much of a intelligent piece of work" as they think and that they are facing several security lags if they don't listen to me. But ....
Do you have friends like me or are my friends the exception?

Haha I kind of know what you mean. A lot of people think the iPhone is the best phone out there, probably because its name is basically "Phone" and subliminally says "perfection". Would you rather buy something called iPhone or Ace or Thunderbolt or Nexus?
And it doesn't help that "everyone" has an iPhone, and because they just got it they have to show it off or put it in some $100 case. I remember a time where owning an iPhone meant you were on the wealthy side, but now it seems everyone and their poorer brother has one. Actually, both on and off contract the Galaxy Nexus costs more than the iPhone 4. Used the Galaxy Nexus fetches about $200, more pre Nexus 4. I got a used-but-crackless iPhone 4 in late November for $180. And we all I know iPhone 4 has been free on contract for a while now whereas the Nexus was I think $50 before Verizon ditched it, not sure about other carriers.

Yeah, but to argue with iPhone owners is like talking to a wall. They know you're right and in the depth of their hearts they see your point, but iPhone isn't just a Phone. If you buy an iPhone you're a part of something big. It's like a religion. They doesn't care if you prove them points. It's a matter of believing something or not.

Stop trying to prove or explain them arguments. The lack of a non Nexus phone will show up anyway and then you can put a smirk on your face. Trying to show off and explain features and **** is similar to an Apple user showing his iDevice. We buy our **** for ourselves anyway and if someone's happy with their device, so be it.

I quite enjoy being part of the relitely exclusive 'nexus club' iv seen a few in the wild which random people own but none of my mates have one. I must admit being part of xda does make me take more notice of what people own. Those closest to me own, 2 sgs 2, 1 iphone, 2 sgs 3, 1 dhd. I had the first android out of all of them and they saw it was a superior OS and the dhd came next followed by the 2 sgs2 (both still on ginger bread even now lol) then the iPhone and then the 2 sgs 3. None of which are rooted etc but I know owning a nexus is special where as the rest don't really give two ****s and are happy as they are

I have these group of friends: the ones that own a bullcrap Android Phone like the gio (of course without custom ROMs), the Apple fanboys and the ones that dont give a f about smartphones. Actually my Apple fanboy friends are nice and are not always saying Apple is the best (for example they use PCs instead of Macs, And most of them just have old gen iPods). Here in Portugal not many people have a phone as good has the Nexus (most of those have a stable life and job). When my friends saw the Nexus for the first time they asked "is that a s3?" And I just say no and have the secret wish of killing them .

Correction: The Next Big Thing

Now you get a story of my daily life to show you why it's a pain in the a**.
A friend of mine asked me a couple of month(around end of September/October) ago which phone she should buy. I told her to buy the Nexus 4, because it is stand of art and she would get the updates earlier than nearly all other androidusers and so the security is much higher (one of her strongest wishes for a new phone). She just answered "but it's from LG. I don't buy phones from LG."
I told her that LG produced it but Google designed and developed it.
Her answer "Yeah but on the cover there is the LG- Logo. What will the people think about me? "
After that I just got my head explode and asked why she is interested in the opinion about others. Further I explained:" If the others don't know that your phone is the best on the market, then they are the stupid ones. So f*** on their opinion "
Friend: " Yeah but they do not know that it is the best one. So where is the point in buying it?"
I told her to never ask me again.....

But aren't you sort of doing the same thing she did by getting upset because she didn't understand your point of view? Enjoy your phone and let her enjoy what she ultimately ends up getting. You don't have a phone for the same purpose she does. Besides, if it weren't for Apple, there wouldn't be the drive from Google to make a better phone and you wouldn't have a nexus to be proud of.

I wouldn't buy the lg n4 either as its no better than the galaxy nexus other than better performance with a handful of games an yes so what if it gets quicker updates so does the gnex an I hardly use stock anyway.
