kettir's review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (AT&T)
original version, submitted Nov 14, 2012, 11:22 AM:
Samsung hit it out of the ballpark
PROS:
-good speaker volume
-beautiful display
-large screen, but I can still use one thumb to control the touchscreen
-8mp camera takes great photos and video
-4gLTE
-ICS runs smoothly and touchwiz is fast and easy
-16gb of onboard memory so I don't have to move apps to the SD card constantly
-battery life seems very good for such a large display
-tower reception is better than my Inspire
CONS:
-The battery cover seems flimsy but maybe because it's so thin
-I'm concerned that a hard key for HOME will wear out
-We need better zoom on camera phones overall, megapixels is all very well but zoom is very important too
My overall opinion: this phone is AMAZING.

CONS:
-If you update to Jellybean, you're gonna have a bad time (it eats batteries, unlike ICS)
-The battery cover seems flimsy but use shows it wears just fine
-I'm concerned that a hard key for HOME will wear out
-We need better zoom on camera phones overall, megapixels is all very well but zoom is very important too
My overall opinion: this phone is AMAZING. I'm not even going to update to the s4 because it doesn't have enough new features to make me spend the money! I've had this phone now for 6 months and I LOVE it.
