From iPhone 4S to Galaxy S3
By S. Williams
Like many of you I have been reading all of these "reviews" from people who don't own the device and was unsure on what to do and what I'd be receiving.
First of all I ordered from Global Mobiles, whom I contacted twice before ordering. Both questions were answered in minutes. Phone same sealed in OEM box. There was also another box that included an adapter to convert the EU plug to US, directions on how to change language to English and instructions on how to setup APN to get HPSA+ speeds. Those weren't quite correct. If you're only getting edge speeds make sure to apply the following settings:
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username:WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: leave blank
MMSC: [...]
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: leave blank
If you're a Mac user like me, make sure to download android.com/filetransfer. Otherwise the device won't show up on your computer.
This phone simply put is amazing. I like iOS and I now have come to like Android. I don't see one phone as better. They both are great in their own ways. However, if like me you've been using iOS since 2007 or even the last year. The galaxy 3 definitely provides a breath of fresh air.
I won't get into specs. There is no lag what so ever on the device and it is very fluid.
As far as S-Voice. For the person that said it only comes in German. I can kind of see their complaint. When you first turn the device on you can set the language to English. However, when you launch S-Voice. It is still in German by default and you have to click the right arrow through several screens of German text before you can change the language. Typically the right arrow is ok/accept, so I was able to guess my way through it. Realistically though one would assume you only need to set the language once so I don't blame them. Again you can set S-Voice to English as well as other languages.
The 4.8 inch screen is beautiful. Having an iPhone and iPad 3, I find this screen large enough to serve both purposes. I can comfortably browse, watch videos as well as read books.
The browser is great as well. The larger screen again helps and it is nice that you can take advantage of flash.
The rear camera uses the same parts as the iPhone 4S so expect similar quality. However, the camera has a ton of settings. Almost as many as stand alone cameras. The front camera on the S3 is higher quality and very crisp. One thing that I hadn't heard mention of was the LED flash. BE CAREFUL. In a completely dark room I literally temporarily blinded myself. In that respect it blows the iPhone 4S away in my opinion so I did get better night pictures.
I didn't want to get too technical as for many they're just looking for a great screen, fluid OS and great browser / camera. If you have other questions let me know.

I didn't think there would be a faster or better android phone than the Note. I got this this afternoon. Cut down my Sim to a micro...stuck it in and zoom. Quandrant was 5476. ICS is so fluid and easy. TouchWiz is amamzing also. This is quad core and it is hard to keep up with. The only thing I have noticed so far is when you push the home button it really seems to lag to get back to the home screen. Maybe haven't tuned up all the settings though. I played with the One X at ATT. The real difference is the sound on the SIII is LOUD and clear. Plus, the fact of having an SD card and replaceable battery was the no brainer decision for me. The only other real problem with this and the One X is that in six months, or less, they will be outdated. Oh Yes, S Voice takes longer than Siri, but the replies seem to in more detail. Get it if you are an android fan and you will positively enjoy it.

Still buggy
By Howard Gnome
I'm an Android advocate and was a happy user of the Samsung Infuse. I was excited about upgrading to the S3. The reviews convinced me to make the switch. I've had the phone for about a week and although I think it has some wonderful features, there are just too many glitches. Here are the two main issues I've encountered:
1. It seems impossible to connect the phone to a PC or a Mac. I tried to connect the phone to several PCs, and I always received an error message about the computer being unable to install a driver. This seems to be a widespread issue: googling this problem turns up many complaints in various forums. I also tried to connect the phone via the Samsung Kies program that comes in a Mac version, and that also failed. This is a pretty basic thing that you want to do with your phone. It's unacceptable that it doesn't work. I spent quite a few hours on the phone with Samsung tech support. I discovered that if I revert the phone back to factory default, it can connect to my PC. But once I've used it and installed a very few apps, connectivity is lost.
2. Less of an issue, I think it's resolved. However, shortly after getting the phone, it was unable to connect to the internet. I tried all solutions to the problem, but couldn't resolve it. Then, mysteriously, several hours later connectivity resumed.
I'm always nervous about being an early adopter, and I think in this case those who rush out to get this phone are going to suffer inconvenience as these bugs are resolved.
PS I finally returned the phone, and this one is able to connect to my PC and my Mac. I was careful to connect the phone and install the drivers right out of the box, before setting up any accounts or downloading any apps. It's also a different sim card. Who knows if it was a hardware issue or something involving the configuration of my phone.
