Made the switch last week. Been enjoying it thoroughly...mostly the screen...and so far battery life is better than the 3d. Though I'm using miui with a custom kernal.....

kernel and kernal are two different things. just correcting you, its kernel

I switched from the Evo 3D about 1 month ago. I have nothing but good things to say about the gnex. I really liked the evo 3D when I had it. I thought I liked sense, but didn't realize how much of a pig it was until I switched to stock Android.

I loved my EVO 3D, but I was always a bit upset at myself for upgrading from my EVO 4G. even though it was nice to go from from single core to dual it wasn't really that big of an improvement that I couldn't have waited.
I ended up leaving Sprint and needed a new phone, so I got a G-Nex. I am fully satisfied with my decision. I have to admit, I'm a bit of a benchmark junkie though. My rooted E3D was a beast. The G-Nex is not quite as good at benches, but I love it still. Vanilla makes all the difference.
However, i switched because i left sprint and needed a new phone. Sounds like you plan on sticking with Sprint. You'll likely be using an upgrade to switch to the nexus. And it is also likely you're last annual upgrade. That being the case, I probably wouldn't upgrade. I would wait for the next nexus, a quad core, or both. Like I said, I like the nexus better but it certainly isn't worth an upgrade and then being locked into it for two years.

I cane from an s2 and I feel the s3 is a much better phone, if you have extra money def worth it
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I miss my Amaze. That being said... it is taking some time for me to have the S3 feel like an extension of myself. The way my Amaze did. I honestly don't miss this phone when I leave it at home or in the car. Plus the whole issue with not being able to move apps to the external sd (grrrr)!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Yeah, the question wasn't if it's cooler, it was if it's worth it.
I mean, don't be blind, you add so and so money and you get less than so and so value. That was my intention. To tell the truth.
It is cooler, but it's more breakable, my phone has similar features, bla bla bla.
Don't get all "Appley" on me but with Samsung, it's also wrong to be blinded by one company... Even if it's not Apple...
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

Absolutely I think its worth it! I was skeptical because I loved my old htc, but I am so glad I moved up to the GS3.
If it were me looking for a new device, I would check out the Note 2 before making a decision. I think itll be out soon.
11 Years Ago Today...
WE WILL NEVER FORGET!!!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!​

Moved to the S3 from the s2, and I'm loving it, and my sister got my old phone. Wins for both of us.

YES! Im coming from an S2 that was running Jedi Mind tricks rom, and i loved it, but my S3 was pretty much perfect out the box. havent had a problem yet which is why im not in any rush to root and throw a rom on it yet.

Can't go wrong with this phone!
Apsolutely worth it. The S3 is the best smarty phone I've ever had! I just paid $177. to have my screen repaired after I dropped and cracked it. I love this device. Love it.
Did I mention how much I love it?

Well I came from the Gnex and I really like this phone. Touchwiz wasn't too bad but I needed that AOSP back. After flashing Paranoid Android I'm loving this phone a little more than my Gnex. It was with the switch to me. Don't get me wrong though, having the nexus was awesome!

+1. Got the S3 and slapped ParanoidAndroid on it with faux's Ultimate kernel. Hybrid mode on the size of this screen is wonderful. With the dual core S4, and PA with faux's kernel, I can't think of a better phone to have right now.

Just curious if this is the one to get. Im coming from the Tmobile G2X.

Well? Do you?

Lol. I love my phone. Maybe would have gotten the note 2 only for the lte.

I like it a lot. It's the best phone I've owned. However, the Note II is looking mighty tempting since it supports LTE.

No buyers remorse here. Best phone I've ever owned by a mile... and is the perfect size. I will have it for a while

What is lte?

It's a good phone. I'm going to root it soon because in it's present state I feel that performance could be better and the gross amount of bloatware is incredibly annoying. I have used the speed test app and I'm T-Mo and managed to get a max of 27.80Mbps. Not to shabby. I did realize later that the size of the phone is quite big for my hands but the screen real estate makes up for it. I don't think I would have gotten anything else. Battery is great as well.

Yes. Absolutely i love my S3.

Im assuming you're kidding? Otherwise you would not be floating around the gs3 forum still?
If you are serious, what do you mean "didnt know whether you were coming or going"? What does that even mean lol?
and by mentioning the "htc one", im assuming you mean the "one S". So that being said, no removable storage card and no removable battery, doesnt that speak for itself? Good luck with that one, or did you overlook those two missing features?
If you are serious, can you explain why u chose the htc one s over the gs3?
To the other person, the note 2 looks nice but from what i was reading, it seems a little big.
And also, people keep mentioning the nexus. Is it better than the gs3 better?

I like it, overall pretty good. WiFi performance and Wi-Fi calling are very bad. If you are planning on using WiFi calling DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

The s3 is light years ahead of the lg, that's a 2 year old phone that wasn't even that great to begin with. IMO the only other phone out right now to compare with the s3 is samsung's own Note2, but that's a giant phone and definitely not for everybody. If you wait a little longer LG's new superphone is around the corner but who know's when exactly it'll be released.

Hey Kid. I remember you from the G2x days. Night and day different experience. Everything just works. Screen quality, speed, size, features, everything is better. This is what the android experince should be.You will love gaming on the GS3.

I love it so much. I do have an issue with the battery running out quickly but I think I have a faulty battery. Not sure. Other than that it's the best phone I've had. I don't think there's anything better out there.
The only other phone i would consider is the new Nexus coming out simply for the updates. It still hasn't been announced tho but I'm sure it'll be a fantastic device on par with the S III

I agree with the person above much smoother, faster, screen is immaculate compared to the gs3. My battery has settled in good since I have had this phone a week. Yesterday went through the whole day with heavy usage and didn't need to charge. Only drawback is lack of ROMs. I have had every major phone from sprint the last 3 years and have never ran into this problem. I believe the AT&T version has 1 Rom. I'm afraid as soon as best buy gets the titanium grey note 2. I may consider jumping ship. As much as I really don't want to, not to mention I ordered 2 cases from amazon already. I have 3 more weeks if I want to exchange the phone but I'm going to try and stick it out cause I really do love this phone.

S3 is a good phone no doubt but only advantage it has is what screen size (not much bigger) and custom ROMs? This LGOG is just getting unlocked and I'm confident that there will be some great development on the way. These things just take time. In the meantime I can enjoy stock while rooted. This phone is great so far!

Thinking about picking up one

I have the galaxy note 2 right now and was thinking about getting the note 3 until I saw the side by side front panel comparisons. I have had samsung phones for years and was debating on getting the one. The phone was released 6 months ago and that kind of worries me becuase technology seems to move so fast. So my question to you guys is how do y all like it? I played with my uncles the other day and I loved the build quality and the front speakers. How good is sense?

I've been an HTC guy for years, I've tried a couple of Samsung's (Galaxy S(fascinate), Galaxy Nexus,S4) and I keep coming back to HTC.
Personally, I can't stand anything bigger than the Rezound/Galaxy Nexus. I returned the S4 because I couldn't find a comfortable way to hold it. The DNA wasn't much better (gave to my mother after a week)
The HTC one is a perfect fit size wise, I honestly don't know how anyone can use the note's as a phone... Just too big.
I may be sticking with the HTC one for a Long time, I love the build quality, design and the size (as compared to all the phones on the market now)

I came from the S3 and so far, it's a very nice phone. I really like how it feels in the hand when you are talking and I like how I can swype with one hand. As far as speed, it doesn't really feel faster than my S3, they feel about the same. Sense is fine, I use Nova as my primary launcher. Battery is good, better than the S3. But keep in mind, it's not unlocked right now and we don't know if any devs are working on it.

I have watched a couple of videos and they say the phone doesnt lag at all. Is this true? I had the s4 for a couple weeks. It had some lag here and there. How much screen time do you guys get
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app

I've had 0 issues with lag on this phone, the speed is pretty staggering.

i've had the phone for a week and have been very impressed with it. Battery gets me through a day. its very fast as well i haven't noticed any lag.

I haven't seen any of these high end phones lag. I'm thinking some people just like drama. Great phone. Use my rule though be happy and make your purchase based on what is on the phone assuming it will never be unlocked. I've been pretty happy using the logic. I'm unlocked myself, but also happy running rooted stock sometimes.

Long time HTC user up until recently had the sg3/sg4/
This phone is great, I highly suggest it.
The build quality i superior to Samsung, and IMO we have a much better chance of unlock root for this phone than on the s4.
I have a good feeling I'll be selling my s4 in the near future.

actually, all reviewers for the s4 say that TW lags on it. Haven't seen any on my Note 2, but I don't even have TW installed. Probably just needs better optimization.

Re read my post. I've used an s4 its pretty much just as good. People are biased from time to time. Also as my other post said lag is more perception at this point. These super phones do amazing things. Sometimes I think my keyboard "lags" on the one badly for instance. I also realize the other factors at play. Heck people here in this forum complain about sense 5 being laggy. My point is that lag is half perception.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app

Lag doesnt bother me that much as long as it isnt constant. I thought my upgrade was this month but its not until October. I think im going to call verizon and see if I can talk them into giving me an upgrade early
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app

I'm in the same boat. I currently have a note 2 and thinking of either the HTC one or moto x. I love the build quality of the One but love that the moto x is pretty much stock android. If this phone had an unlock/root method, it would be a no brainer. I just hope something comes soon for it and then I could load a Google experience ROM or something
Decisions, decisions...

I would honestly just be happy with root. That way I can use titanium backup and some of the other root apps I use
