Good. Apple blows. Android has been outselling ios 3-1 for a while. Thats why apple sues everyone. The release of the sgs2 was a game changer and since android has taken over. Hell the sgs2 still out sells iphone 5. I hate apple with a passion.
Remember friends dont let friends buy ios.

Well you kinda can't blame them if they had really old laggy androids. My girlfriend had an lg Optimus s which was one of those phones and hated it so much she got the 4s. Makes me cringe saying that but the new Android phones out now are simply incredible. People don't know what they're missing. Once a sheep always a sheep I guess lol.

Nah. I think that's a waste of an upgrade if you ask me. Think about how good the gs4 is going to be. Or the note 3 with an octo core! I'm saving it man.

Yeah I got the s3 and ill have a upgrade nov 1st 2014 gonna be awesone s5 or s6 or note 4 or 5 lol
But good thing about samsung as of lately they been staying up to date on there devices
Kinda glad that my s2 aka my back up phone is getting the jb update having two phones on jb will be nice
Kinda hard to believe as of 2 years ago I was a htc fan now im a samsung fan
Btw before I got the s2 I got the 4s and they dont have lost or stolen coverage on there phones so to me apple is a bunch of conartists and will never ever support apple or there products

I've already upgraded from my et4g twice since nov. First went to the s3 now the note 2. Definitely wasnt disappointed with either. I actually just sold my s3 for $100 cuz I busted the screen. So the buyer got a month old s3 for $100 + $130 for new screen = $230 they got a sweet deal they're a member here too that I know outside of xda and they were upgrading from the et4g maybe they'll stop by and chime in on the difference and if they are happy or not with the s3. The s4 is still 6 months or so out. Its estimated date to go on sale for the international version is sometime in June and US 1-2 months later so youre looking at july or august b4 US carriers will have em

I've been hearing on different tech site's the s4 might come out as early as April. Either way I'm very happy with this device at the moment anyway so I can wait. This phone should be really nice once we get source I'm thinking.
Edit: I'm also coming to this device a couple months ago from the 3d so probably why I'm content with this for now.

I upgrade every few months by selling my current phone and finding a sweet deal on a newer used phone. Though I may just switch to the nexus 4. With their pricepoints I may just be able to upgrade for free forever.

Unless you wanted to wait until November to get the SIII, you made a good choice.
SII came out in April, landed in USA carriers in november. Just because they are doing an unveiling doesn't mean it'll come onto market the next day...
But I suppose you have the option of paying 600+ dollars for unlocked, international which still isnt a bad price, but I can think of a few places to put that 600 besides a phone. I'm happy I got the SII for FAR on the down payment.
Can always sell the SII and buy the SIII that way you save some bread..... but I can't wait to see this bad boy, even tho I may not want my SII anymore bcuz of it
SGH-T989
I bought thisnphone onnlaunch day at tmobile. I di agree it wont be getting launhed here in the states till way after the international release. Im saying 6 months after intl gets it well start to get news about carrier releases. If i do get it im buying it unlocked. But i did promise myself id stick with a phone until its no longer usable. I love my sgs2. Updates can wait because this can do everyrhing i need. I can do other thinga with 600+ dollars.

Exactly!! Anyone who thinks this phone will drop in the US anytime soon is crazy. Bloatware comes first when it comes to phones in the US. carriers will try anything to get more money from you. We were the last to see the galaxy sII on tmobile. Why would we see this phone anytime before January next year?
If there is no option for native ICS then I will pass. The galaxy sII will live on long past the release of the gsIII..
Well if it does get launched before June (which looks to be the case) I'm selling this phone and getting the international version. The 4G speeds don't matter to me since I never get over 8mbps anyway. I'd rather have the phone that gets updates right away and has better rom development.
UPDATE: Samsung said officially on Twitter it isnt true.

I agree. 4.8 inches is perfect. If it were "edgeless" or "edge to edge" than yeah go ahead and bump that up while keeping the same size, but the current size is perfect for a phone boarding on phablet.
No reason to go any higher when someone can just buy a Galaxy Note. I can still unlock and use my phone with one hand for the most part. Yeah it's a bit difficult but it can be done!

Congrats for the phone. I myself jumped to the wagon of galaxy S2 a year later when s3 was just around the corner. I didn't regret a bit. Same now with galaxy nexus.. Not regretting it a bit.. Got it a fortnight ago. The ready baked development and mature kernels trump it all. Enjoy your phone

Just to know you are not alone, I got my GNex yesterday. Upgraded from my Epic. I didn't want to leave Sprint, so no N4 for me. Decided to save my upgrade for next year and buy a used Gnex off eBay. Infinitely better than my Epic and probably good enough to last me another year.
Jason
I'd prefer this phone over the n4 personally..
ignore all the hate! welcome to the forums
While I would have waited for the N4, don't worry because the Gnex kicks serious ass anyway. A lot of Gnex owners including myself aren't upgrading because the Gnex is a beast!
I'm planning to do the same. Do you think the price will go down when the N4 is released? Really low on money but I just can't take this X2 still on Gingerbread.
Sent from my MB870 using xda app-developers app
Again, you are not alone. I also jumped on this ship. Snatched a Gnex on Ebay for US$232.00 shipped. Great deal. In my case, right now i can't afford the Nexus 4 because spending US$300.00 is out of my reach. Simple as that. And even if i could spend USD$300.00, i would still consider the Gnex over the Nexus 4 because of the storage. 8Gb is waaay to low. 16gb is already low, but i think i can make it with it, but 8gb is out of the question. Not to mention that Play Store doesn't sell devices on my country, but i still wanted a Nexus device for the updates and the optimized software, so this was my only option. Im coming from a AT&T SG2. Great device but not a Nexus.

That really was a remarkable deal for this phone. Too bad I didn't need a new contract at the time. Still they had it for only $199 for upgrades. Anyway it was on backorder at the time (and I HATE waiting for backorder) so I just went to Sprint and bought it full price. The good news is they gave me $90 for my old E4GT that I got for a penny on AMZN wireless so it's all a wash

Lol couldn't wait so I ended up getting one off ebay for $550. Very worthwhile upgrade compared to the s3 in my opinion.

My ladyfriend got me one for xmas about 2 weeks ago, loving the hell out of it. Came most recently from the E4GT forums, made quite a few friends there, hope to do the same here.

I also came from E4GT. I was hated there and I fully expect to be hated here, lol
Also from the E4GT. Loving this phone so far. Fast, smooth, and unrivaled battery life. With the screen size, I'm not sure how much I will be using my nexus7 now.

Actually still rocking my E4GT on another line... just figured if I have to move off my MVNO and onto Sprint that I might as well do it on a good deal. Didn't think I'd find one better before June.

That really was a remarkable deal for this phone. Too bad I didn't need a new contract at the time. Still they had it for only $199 for upgrades. Anyway it was on backorder at the time (and I HATE waiting for backorder) so I just went to Sprint and bought it full price. The good news is they gave me $90 for my old E4GT that I got for a penny on AMZN wireless so it's all a wash

Since it's back in stock it went back up to $149. So yeah, got lucky!

Anyone sticking around for the s5(or whatever the next s phone in the series is?) I got this phone a year late, and since everybody else is getting the s4, I was wondering if anyone is still gonna hold out for the s5.
This would be VERY cool if this is indeed a "leak." http://www.itechpost.com/articles/9801/20130527/samsung-galaxy-s5-specs-leaked-early.htm
What do you think? What will the next galaxy phone have? Will it be worth it to stick around?

Lol s5 leaks? The gs4 JUST came out like a month ago... but these seem like somewhat reasonable specs...

I'll be on the s2 for a year in September, and it'll be another year after that before I am eligible for upgrade.
By then, the s4 will probably be free, so that's probably my next phone.

Had this phone for about a year and a half. Don't see myself upgrading anytime soon. This phone has not lagged once on me and I have not seen either S3 or s4 as upgrade-worthy

Ditto here. My mom just got the S4, despite my protestations. She doesn't even know how to use half the features on her old phone. I tried to talk her into getting the S3 for 1/4 of the price, but she wouldn't listen.
My upgrade is up Oct 1 and I plan to get whatever is best at that time but nothing as large as the note 3. I think a 5" screen size is perfect for an all around device. Possibly the LG Optimus G2 or Motorola X. Still waiting for news on both.
I skipped the S3 b/c I think it wasn't a major-enough upgrade. But I got the S4 right when the preorders went live. I'll be using my upgrade for the S5 when it comes out, most likely. Kept my S2 as my backup phone and mom & wifey's still rocking the S2.
Im going to get my s4 tomorrow but im still torn between that and the note 2....

Windows phone, this android stuff is getting a little boring.
Just put girlfriend on my plan, and i got her the s3 for $30 on amazon. She keeps asking me "how do i _____" But it is one smooth phone! my upgrade is up next may, and you better believe im going to save money for the beefed up s5. (unless something else better comes out, which might be the new motorola phone. but i really enjoy sammys!)
Thank you woody for seeing the light. Because you just use android as you would an iphone. I bet you are not unlocking the full customization of the phone. Yeah for you maybe go simple. Such as iphone or microsoft. Hell even a flip phone. Goodbye now

If I ever bought a phone with a display bigger than 5 inches, please PUNCH MY FACE.

Great news on the design, but no removeable battery is pretty much a deal breaker. How does Samsung not realize what their best features are? Seriously, the removable battery and SD card slot are the core design features that separates their product from the crap Apple puts out.

I like how right after the article it has a link that says "Innovation Is Still At Apple's Core" sure it is... the only thing they've done since Jobs died is copy Android features.
Team Rejectz
my contract ends in october so if the g5 is reported to be within 6 months of that ill probably go with it, if not then ill probably get a s4 or htc one
