Uh.... That looks like **** Imo. Outdated and boring. But hey, if I don't like the looks I can just theme the apk right? Oh wait.... iPhone can't do that.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SimeonAS89:
Basically this. I agree 100%. The cost also for me would be ridiculous for a new iPhone considering I'm on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
This phone "just works" right out of the box. I don't need to mod in any way to have a great user experience. That being said moding is so fun why wouldn't I? Iphone is not my cup of tea. Jailbreaking IMO is overrated and is no comparison to having root access on Android
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] armyboy11b:
That's because modding an iPhone...is..well..boring gay and completely pointless lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
I agree makes my ipod 4g practically useless if I actually try to do anything but pirate.(which I don't do) using themes and mods just slow it down to a crawl.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skyyrocket:
LOL Isheeps are funny....... They dont say anything because the iphone 4s got stomped by the s3 (lets be honest here) now a taller iphone 4s (iphone5) is released and now everyone is a apple fanboy? why cause its a 4inch screen lol please Both are good products but android is better n samsung makes awesome devices .....oo btw to the ppl that says ios is more polish u guys might wanna double check that :) android is more stable
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
They are the same price, full price is $650 plus tax. Your argument is invalid.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dragoth12:
T-Mobile & AT&T are not the same price....and how do you figure that it's only $650 that would be $27.08 per month.... NO carrier is that cheap. I think you misunderstood what he was saying.

You may be able to get the phones for the same price but over the course of two years (standard contract length) you will pay considerably more for service through AT&T than you would with T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Illusion81:
If sold out to apple what the **** you still doing in a sgs3 forum then? IMore.com, modmyi.com or macrumors.com is where you need to be at.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
My opinion is that Jelly bean/ics is very stable and polished. I even think GB was as well. Hell even froyo was stable IMO albeit a little laggy. Android has evolved a lot since the early day of G1 erra
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1SiK1500:
jailbroken iPhone = Stock andriod phone.. Dummy...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Illusion81:
I got on the 1st gen iPhone scene when it was first launched. Jailbreak and cydia was the sh*t back then, but then I got my hands on a second hand g1 and tasted android and total freedom. No more iTunes slavery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
I can actually change themes on iPhone. It's called dreamboard.

LOL! Classic! Turn your iPhone into Android w/ Sense! Gotta love that! :D

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
Dreamboard is a piss poor(no disrespect to devs who made it, as it is a miracle you can do that on ios) theming as it slows down my ipod 4g rendering it impractical but usable. Winterboard also slows me down. Imo jailbreaking is not worth the instability
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tomit12:
This is my primary issue with the idevices. I've owned every model of iphone since release, and after jail breaking they are never quite 100% thereafter. The theming programs can make some neat (albeit limited) stuff, but they really do bog things down and cause mobile substrate crashes more often than I'd like.

Apple makes some nice hardware though. People seem to think the screen just being taller is a bad thing, but the most common complaint I hear about large android phones, from women in particular, is that the phone is simply too wide to use 1 handed... So it may not be as dumb as people think.

All in all, I'll probably pick up an i5 at some point just to play with, but I don't believe I would seriously consider it a replacement for my S3, and that's after coming to an S3 from a 4S.

As a side note, I other than apps anymore, being "chained" to iTunes is something of a myth... I'd know, I given how often and easily I bounce between the 2 ecosystems.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
Really? Let's not talk about MIUI which everyone loves & is a copy of iOS.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:

I am happy for you. To each his own. Quite frankly, i think you probably have another username. If you love ios so much then why do you keep coming back here?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] quailallstar:
Damn I didn't think my post was going to be THIS popular... My fiance gets her iPhone 5 this Friday; I'll wait to make my opinions until after I've felt it in-hand. The ios I don't care for, the physical aspect of the 4S and 5 I do admit are nice. I give credit were credit is due.

SGS3 is still #1 (for me) in my book :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osugsxr:
Just traded my Galaxy s3 for a iphone 4s plus $170. Restored my information from the icloud thing, plus jailbroken it to. Everything is up an running, no issues or regrets about it. GS3 only cost me $300, WOW factor is the size difference! Just comparing them initially I was stunned for the most part but I'll get use to the iphone 4s or possible just get the iphone 5 pending how I like it.

Been android for last few years and really have enjoyed it, not 100% sure that I'll be making the switch completely. Probably will still have an itch for a custom rom or so. I still have my galaxy nexus, which I have been offered a gs3 for, highly tempted to trade the nexus for another gs3. So for now android is my back up phone.

reason for the switch:

tired of trading phones for the latest android phone out, always ended up getting the latest one some how

Rooting & custom roms, it was fun but just not worth it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
I love the quality of the iPhone. When spending $650 I expect nothing less. I'm sure your wife will love her iPhone 5.

No way I would own any Apple product. I will stick with my S3 and the Android OS. Oh, I forgot I did own a Ipod Touch for a few hours and hated it. I boxed it up and brought it back to BB.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
Haha I might just buy the old nano for the gym the s3 is too big to carry around
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redhooka:
Huh? I don't even notice mine in my pocket. Now when I have it in the Otterbox Defender that is a different story, but I only put it in that when I'm going somewhere that I'm afraid it'll get scratched, bumped, or possibly dropped (camping, beach, parties, gun range, etc).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] papabear:
Jailbreak/modding iOS is just the same as polishing a turd.. in the end it's still a turd.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cubano2031:
Really??? Omg,is comparate a mazeraty 2013 and toyota!!

Toyota/galaxy
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
Lol without the case it's like a credit card in my pocket I measured it today and it was half the depth of my eraser haha. But when I'm in the gym I just don't wanna take a chance I used to always drop my g2
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tomit12:
Sweet, because between a Mazerati and an LFA, I'll take the LFA any day!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dragoth12:
As a mechanic that has worked on both.... I'll take the Toyota over the Mazerati any day. The Toyota is better built. You are paying for a name with the Mazerati, sounds familiar lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Markor13:
Ha hell no!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] devilsadvocatenu:
You know, it never even occurred to me to consider this. There are numerous reasons why the S3 is simply a much better phone. Then there is the obnoxious Apple culture and I'm fairly certain that I will never buy an Apple product.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xanatos57:
I'm pretty sure my two year old Samsung Galaxy S is still better than the iPhone 5. Only thing the original Galaxy S lacks when compared to the iPhone 5 is half the RAM and a weaker camera. Everything else it either exceeds or is the same as the iPhone 5. Congratulations Apple. You managed to make a phone that doesn't outright beat something that's 2 years old.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cubano2031:
2 years old?but really?you have seen the performance of an iphone and ipad

ok whatever you say, I am happy with my iphone and never return to the ice age with android?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
I feel the same way, it feels so good on the other side. I use to hate apple but I believe it was envy of the iPhone. When I owned plastic galaxy's & someone pulled out an iPhone with glass & metal it would flare up. Plus the UI being so polish didn't help things. Truly I'm not a apple fan but android manufactures aren't getting it right with the quality & the look. In some months many S3's will have screen burn-in. Which is sad.. The little led pixels will go out one by one. The blues will be first, the irony of Amoled.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skyyrocket:
On apples website about ios6 update They need to relax with that last part LOL

With its easy-to-use interface, amazing features, and rock-solid stability, iOS is the foundation of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. And even as others try to catch up, the technologies and features built into iOS keep your Apple devices years ahead.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dragoth12:
The only thing all these Apple fans can definitely say is that the iPhone looks better and is made of "glass and aluminum". Personally I wouldn't want my phone made out of glass. I've seen too many with cracked backs. If I scratch or brake my GS3s plastic back I spend 10 bucks and replace it.

What in the world will they say is better when Sammy or HTC build a phone that isn't plastic I wonder?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] if6was9:
No.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ben503:
I been using the iPhone for over 4 years. I used all generation except the iPhone 5. During those years I was using android here and there. The only thing I hated about android was battery life. Now that the battery can last over a day, I can honestly say that I will never go back to ios.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cubano2031:
Not only the screen etc,the ios ecosystem is super great,stability,performance,style,great camara,great display!!!

Tasker, ESFile explorer, swype.

You asked one, gave you 3.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
The ecosystem imo is lacking because it keeps you on a short leash. Apple could if it wanted to open up facetime and imessage to non apple users it chose not to. Yet Android you can use google voice and google talk (video chat plus I.M) on any platform. To me this is a great ecosystem not only make friends with those who use apple
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] barmanham:
Everytime I pick up my s3 I feel like I'm using a plastic tv remote sigh thats the thing about android right now and in all honesty I notice the pentile a lot its the best android phone but..... we need to demand better seriously if an iphone 5 had android OS on it would you? still prefer the s3? I wouldnt not at alllllll
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gagdude:
Pentile does suck but many people fail to realize the advantages of plastic.

Lighter material, better damage resistance (the plastic gets scratched instead of cracked glass), and how it spreads heat.

And when you think about it, plastic is a very recent invention. It is a chemically created material, made 30(?) Years ago. Glass is just sand (sand is just rocks) and metal has been around since the bronze age.

Not hating on metal, I actually like a bit of metal polish on my phones, but plastic is just being flamed on way too much.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jangst123:
is it just me is is anyone else find it strange how almost all the Iphone fan boys on here have a low Thanks count :silly:

Kind of makes ya wonder :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bigjim1488:
Can't believe this thread is still going.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xanatos57:
Yes really. My 2 year old Vibrant (to the month, if not the day since I update every two years with my contract) still outperforms any iPhone. It's lasted 2 years with a 1.5 Ghz overclock and the hardware isn't even fazed by the increased heat or heat cycles associated with overclocking. At the time the original Galaxy S Vibrant was released the hardware was one of the best, if not the absolute best, available on the market (and before you sprout off some bull about the iPhone being one of the other best... the rest of the competitors were all Android phones). To this day, the hardware is still vastly superior to every single iPhone except the iPhone 5 which it only loses in 2-3 categories (out of at least 6-10 categories).

The only reason the iPhone and iPad could even compete performance wise is because the OS is so simplistic (and not in a good way) that it doesn't require any hardware to run. While that may work for the iSheeple, I prefer an OS that lets me do what I want to do, not what Steve Jobs thinks I want to do. I want customization, I want programmability, I want a phone that allows me to run software that's built by people not restricted by a corporate environment, but most of all I want a phone that isn't outdated the minute I break the seal on the box.

Screen burn in? I have never see a Galaxy S anything with screen burn in much less dead pixels. I've personally owned 5 Vibrants in addition to having seen another 10 of so among my immediate group of friends/peers. Granted that's a small sample size, but seeing as how we were all in the Army at the time, the simple fact that none of us cracked the screen is impressive enough much less any issues with dead pixels or image burn.

The only real argument the iSheeple can make about the Galaxy is the feel. And notice how I said Galaxy, not Android unlike some of the ignorant posts. Motorola makes an awesome looking and feeling Droid series and HTC has some nice ones too. The downside if the hardware isn't quite where I would like to see in my phone. However, the feel of the Galaxy is fixed with a $35 case. For my Vibrant I had an Otterbox Commuter series that made the phone feel like a brick in a good way. I never had to worry about dropping my phone or abusing it with the elements. My current Galaxy S3 lives in an Otterbox Defender series and talk about feeling good. The last time I held an iPhone I felt like I was going to break the damn thing or at least crack the glass they coated the whole phone with.

Then again, I'm almost certain the iSheeple won't even read the pertinent parts of this post seeing as how proper English seems to be lacking from those who swear by Apple.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] papabear:
Apple did say that samsung phones are 'substantially the same' .. so why not buy something that has a larger screen, removable battery and external memory.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ben503:
Just because I sided with android you want me to compare apps lol. Ok I'm not really into apps. I probably have downloaded like 10-15 apps. The apps on ios are much better, happy now? here's one example Pocket app is better in android since it can read articles to you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xanatos57:
Ooooohhh!!! Are we comparing apps now?

Let's see:

Rom Manager

Titanium Backup

Root Explorer

Cerberus

Set CPU

ROM Toolbox

Anything third party

Also, notice how all of Google's apps (such as Chrome, Maps, etc.) are available on the Apple App store, but Safari isn't available on the Play Store. There's nothing preventing Apple from publishing their apps on the Play Store except they know their apps are terrible compared to what's available and it'd hurt their little egos knowing there are other apps out there that are preferred to what they can **** out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ben503:
Yes I would still buy it. Dude like 90% of people put a case on the minute they get their phones. So basically all the iPhone users want plastic lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xanatos57:
If the iPhone 5 had Android OS I still wouldn't go anywhere near it. It'd would be the exact same thing as me picking up my old Vibrant and using it from a technology standpoint. All it would be is a prettier package. I can get that with a $35 case and keep my $500 worth of hardware.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gagdude:
Why I wouldn't buy an iPhone 5 with Android on it:

Too small screen

Weird screen resolution

Weird screen shape (16:9 aspect ratio ik but still looks weird)

Weird placement of front camera, adding extra height when they could just put it to the side of the front speaker

The Apple logo on the back

Only one home button! How could I navigate Android without the back key?

And there are still way better options as far as build quality goes, can you say Motorola and bulletproof material?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
A 4.3 inch screen would be good and add the onscreen navigating buttons and ur good to go. I like the iphone 5 design but android wouldn't run properly cuz ios doesn't require that much hardware specs as android. ios might be more "stable" but it's too dumbed down for me I love the openness of Android
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
On ebay you can get a new back for $15. Go look if you don't believe me.

---------- Post added at 01:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 AM ----------

So basically it's a china town "knockoff"? No thanks I like authentic things. A bigger screen isn't always better. The ppi on the s3 suck.. Yeah you might say it's over 300 but it's not because it's lacking so many subpixels. I dare any S3 user to go to an apple & compare the S3 to the iPhone 5. I promise you will feel a sense of envy. plastic vs. metal & glass. 306 ppi vs 326 ppi RGB. 8mp vs 8mp, but apple pays fine attention to its sensors & Sammy don't really care they just say hey we have burst mode!!!!!!!! Lmao enough said
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dragoth12:
Awesome sauce. My GS3 would still take a matter of 5 seconds to replace... How long would it take on the iPhone? Not to mention you would probably void the warranty on your iphone by taking it apart.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
Just unscrew two screws, slide it off then slide the new one on. Then put the two scews back in , yes it's that simple :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skyyrocket:
Unless your super human, You cant tell the difference looking at the screen from a normal distance and the Gs3 has one of the best cameras on the market next to htc one x and iphone 5 and in some cases i have compared the 4s "which the iphone 5 is the same thing " to the gs3 camera and the gs3 came out sharper in some cases I am surrounded by people like you with the whole iphone is the king of the world crap and another reason samsung wont use another material like glass or metal because most likely they will get sued by apple lol:angel:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gagdude:
You are getting into geek territory here where only a small percentage of users actually are (includes big portion of xda community :D)

If I went up to the average person and said what's a subpixel they would have no clue what I'm saying. I have a friend who has an original galaxy s, and when I told him the screen looked like crap despite its higher res and ppi than my phone, he's like "I don't see anything." and 8mp vs 8mp but all apple does is say hey we have isight lmao!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] barmanham:
I have a case and believe it or not I can still find creaks plastic is plastic trust me if you have phone OCD its a nightmare

But most people dont have phone OCD so theres nothing wrong right?

Its like the nexus 7 owners who say the POS screen its ok that its loose and all the other problems with build quality its not ok its a plastic POS lol I'm sorry I'm tired of these manufacturers ipad mini here I come..... we are just blind due to are love of android they can do better

Phone is stupid unnessary big already anyways I dont want a case
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
I have 20/20 with corrected vision. So it was noticeable, it looks like crap. I even used a screen test app & green was the only color that was crisp. All of the other colors were blurry & I could see the ugly rectangle pixels running across the screen. Let's not talk about the whites on Amoled. It was either blue or a greenish yellow color. Smh
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] skyyrocket:
When it comes down to the normal person they wont be able to tell the difference between an iphone photo and a s3 photo put them both on the computer and watch no one would be able to tell the difference and i am sorry my s3 is sharper then a 4s idk about a 5 cause its not out intill tomorrow but ill show you some pictures that looks like i took them with a nikon or cannon pro camera and lets not talk about blacks on iphone half of the time its slight greyish lol I had every iphone since the first one "besides the 5" and i was an apple head, intill i discover what i can do with android
