[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fullofsecrets:
Thanks for starting this thread. It's nice to feel like I'm not alone in disliking the phone that's been touted as the Next Great Thing.

I can't connect via USB cable to Windows 7. I'd link the thread on the Android Central forums that shows screenshots of the issue I'm having, but XDA's board thinks I'm too new despite my account here being over a year old. :) Seriously, though, what is the point of having 32 GB of storage available if I can't transfer data to it?

The screen fades when I launch the browser. Supposedly, this is a known issue and they'll be fixing it in "a couple of days," according to a Sprint representative.

As a left-hander, the power button is in a crummy place. I keep accidentally turning the phone off, especially when I put it in the holster. This is, admittedly, my bad for not thinking about testing this when I was in the store because the power was on all the time since it was connected to the alarm cord. :)

It's a little big for my comfort. This isn't something I could've easily perceived when testing it in the store, 'cause I was holding it kind of toward the bottom with my fingertips to avoid the attached alarm cord that was where you'd normally grip it. My hand aches a mite after holding it for an hour, but I'm probably holding it a little tight because it's kind of slippery (waiting for my silicone case to arrive in the mail).

I'm apparently the only one who notices the granularity of the screen. It's much better, quite tolerable since I changed screen protectors, but still noticeable.

TouchWiz ... where do I even begin? Perhaps the most non-intuitive UI I've ever encountered on a phone, including my old dumbphones. Digging through five layers to change CDMA to CDMA/LTE? I detest the messaging style. The default Gallery app is dreadful: it allows you to change views, but there's no way to retain that setting, so you have to do it every time you enter the app. The flashlight widget is ridiculous. Why would you make it 2x2, with no alternate options? 1x1 would've been just fine, thank you. And "assistive light" is a silly name, in my opinion.

Hated that the capacitive buttons powered off by default, and was very glad when I found out there was a setting to leave them on.

I'm not impressed with the camera. Very blurry results on zoom, and that's with a focused picture.

The browser is intolerable. I really appreciated the options in the Sense browser that permitted you to individually clear the cache, clear the history, clear the cookies, and so on. I tried replacing the stock browser with Firefox, and that still has a bulk delete for privacy, rather than individual categories. If anyone knows of a better browser to replace, please, let me know.

I miss the kickstand. I'm trying to fix it with an aftermarket case, but we'll see how that works out, 'cause it hasn't arrived yet.

I am strongly considering exchanging this for the HTC Evo 4G LTE. Yes, I've heard that Sense 4.0 is bloated and has poor memory management, but I really miss its assets, and I'm not sure how long it will be before someone gets the Sense ROM up and running for Samsung. Plus, I've never rooted my phone before, and I'm a little nervous about trying it (an acquaintance of mine bricked hers). Bird in the hand, and all that.
