 I am a very critical person with phones and yeah I changed alot. But I still have my nit picks about the GS3 of what more they could have done. But I thought instead of joining in the usual ah it's amazing god I am getting one i thought I'd do the opposite. It is an amazing device and my first SUPER PHONE. I ain't yet had a phone with a HD screen. Anyway in all seriousness I think I do need to stick with it for a while(2weeks) Joke. I have entered a new contract but the phone is sim free. I have also insured it cos I cannot carry a device around like this worrying what may happen to it. I am keeping my Xperia U as a spare for sure in case of times when the Samsung needs to be in for repair. I know what you'll all think but in all honesty I cannot afford to do this anymore. And the rest of this year is going to be spent saving for travelling. Going to Europe again with my brother. Will take some nice snaps with this phone too. For a change I am going to make the most and appreciate what I have got. It's arriving Wednesday I'll be sleepless the night before

Well ive no ram issues in my GS3, the interface is always very fluid and silky. To be honest its a bit too silky smooth, couple that with the build of the smooth plastic and its almost like the phone is grease coated and gives me sometimes a rather.. travel sickness feeling about it !
But in a good way though. I think the US LTE handsets need more ram to keep the phones as smooth as the international Exynos versions, since they have a lower spec cpu.
@ rikken - dont worry im sure Bonovox will keep it a month or two then probably buy an iPhone 4S

Leave me alone guys I am really looking forward to this one. Wanna keep it Has so much it can do. Am keeping my Sony as a spare though. @etaab mine is from Carphone sim free and they have not yet set up a proper deal with it yet so by default they have done £28 month with only 100mb data. But I got the deal with unlimited data with Talk Mobile using Vodafone network. Talk Mobile actually do unlimited data on some tariffs

Sorry I don't know how that response about the note ended up in here but I thought I was on the other thread that mentioned the camera module on the GS3. Anyway I meant the Note 2.
Now back to the SGS3.

Heh, isnt that the cheapest tarrif available for the S3 ? i saw it when it was on preorder. Isnt that the pauper's tarrif ??
Not for me. A phone like the S3 is one that imo needs to be always on, always in contact with your social networks and with plenty of minutes worth of talktime and texts.
A few more things to point out from todays further usage:
- the audio quality of the phone calls is incredibly loud and clear compared to any phone ive owned before. I dont know if its because the S3 supports HD audio on the network im now with, 3, but anyway, thats my opinion on that.
- the battery is still a strong performer. Bored at work today i used the phone to browse the web, update and comment on facebook several times, fool around with various browsers etc for about 4 hours none stop using 3G. In that time the battery only dropped to around 66%, which for constant use is very good imo. I dont expect it to last more than a day, just like other smartphones.
- camera quality is very good. Not on par with my N8, the colours are slightly less colourful but still very good. Obviously the S3's LED light is not a match for my N8's Xenon flash unit. Also on the phones screen those images can look a little poor, but on a laptop or HD tv look very nice.
- The silver spine which is curved on my white version makes it appear to be curved like the Galaxy Nexus. It isnt, but adds character.
I actually think i love the S3 design now (in white) and prefer it to the HTC One X design which i was a massive fan of.

No no I never went for that tariff I went for unlimited text internet etc. Call quality on Three network is excellent

Bonovox Just try and hang on to this one and enjoy it.Root it,experiment with some roms cause out-the-box can be improved tenfold.I started getting itchy fingers with my S2 even whilst changing roms every other day and was ready to pack it in and get a new phone (I can walk into a store now and get a new phone.My 2nd upgrade is available.) But then I discovered the MIUI ICS 4.0.3 rom that just makes my G2 perfect.) Theres no need for an upgrade.My phone performs great.It looks great.It feels great.The G2 is a great phone when optimized to its fullest potential.Can just imagine what I could do with that G3 if I got my hands on one.Excited for you.
