Let's get the good out of the way first. I never have a dropped call on this device and love its functionality especially after the Jelly Bean update (if you can get it/I'll explain in the bad). The camera is fantastic and love the ability to pause video while recording so you don't have to have separate videos that you can later crop into one. The NFC capabilities are such an awesome feature especially for easy share.<br /><br />Now for the bad which outweighs the good. When using the motion gesture to make a call from the contact screen (you simply put the phone to your ear while on a contacts thread or the contact's info and it calls the contact). More often than not, this causes the phone to go into emergency calls only and must restart the phone. This was happening even before the 4.1.1 update. Another issue is using headphones. I don't use the headphones for music but I use an aux cable in my car which after playing a song on my car speakers through the stereo, it will resort to playing them on the phone's speaker. Samsung's support for this phone is ineffably horrible, they have no idea how to fix the issue for the phone not connecting via usb to Kies. Could not get 4.1.1 for like 2 weeks til I found a hack for Kies.<br /><br />The phone's interface is smooth but key features just don't work. If you don't mind staying on ICS or the other issues I mentioned, by all means get this phone but if you demand more from a "flagship" phone, get a Nexus.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40978#review40978 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40978#review40978 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:40:21 GMT <p><i>IMBACK20 submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I am coming off of an S2 Skyrocket and while i really had no gripes with the rocket, i must say the S3 edges it out... but just barely in certain areas. it is the little things that make the difference. first and foremost let me say that the S3 is faster and smoother than the rocket. swiping between screens and switching between tasks is a breeze compared to the old 'rocket. The addition of the LED notification light is welcome. compared to the rocket's waking the screen whenever a text or notification is received. also warmly welcomed is the inclusion of a flashlight widget (where as with the rocket I'd have to download an app from play store). Battery life seems to be the same or slightly better than the rocket. the camera is a major improvement over the rocket. I've seen many complain about the size (even with large hands) yet i do not seem to have a problem. i am 6'4" with big dumb fingers and i can navigate the soft keyboard with nary a type-o. now to the downside. these are just personal gripes. when i upgraded my rocket to ICS 4.0.4 i was given a bunch of control widgets to put on my home screen that the S3 lacks (maybe they are there and i have yet to find them... beats me) for example, i had toggle widgets for voice control and driving mode. an "active applications counter" widget that would open the task manager when tapped. for that matter the S3 doesn't even HAVE a task manager icon you can put on a home screen! (i managed to find one in the play store though). however i shouldn't have to... most if not all other androids (with the exception of a few crappy boost mobile droids i have owned) included this icon. not sure if i am liking the hard home button. much preferred the capacitive one from the rocket. also gone are home screen toggles for wifi, gps, bluetooth etc (these were moved to the drop down notification bar i soon discovered). In short... a few minor concessions in the upgrade but a rock solid phone all around. deff recommend it to others.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40933#review40933 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40933#review40933 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 16:22:41 GMT <p><i>kettir submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>PROS:<br />-good speaker volume<br />-beautiful display<br />-large screen, but I can still use one thumb to control the touchscreen<br />-8mp camera takes great photos and video<br />-4gLTE<br />-ICS runs smoothly and touchwiz is fast and easy<br />-16gb of onboard memory so I don't have to move apps to the SD card constantly<br />-battery life seems very good for such a large display<br />-tower reception is better than my Inspire<br /><br />CONS:<br />-If you update to Jellybean, you're gonna have a bad time (it eats batteries, unlike ICS)<br />-The battery cover seems flimsy but use shows it wears just fine<br />-I'm concerned that a hard key for HOME will wear out<br />-We need better zoom on camera phones overall, megapixels is all very well but zoom is very important too<br /><br />My overall opinion: this phone is AMAZING.

Also the Voice dialing is spotty at best and nowhere as good as my iPhone 3GS. I have noticed a number of identical complaints from other users on various sites. Plantronics was good enough to replace the headset but same issues. Samung Support inform me that the SIII is only compatible with Samsung Bluetooth headsets. <br /><br />Next, after 2 weeks the speaker stopped working, the first time I used the 3.5mm headphone jack.<br /><br />Battery life is poor at best, about 30% less then my 3-year old iPhone with a weak battery. <br /><br />I returned to AT&amp;T with the phone but as I did not have an active account they would not honor the warranty and suggested I send the phone to Samsung which I did, After two weeks (Average total repair time is 3 weeks or more) I received an email message saying the phone has liquid damage and the warranty is Voided. <br /><br />I have not exposed the phone to any moisture and it appears the audio problem has something to do with the headphone jack. I looked online and have found many complaints about Samsung voiding warranties Liquid Damage, User Damage and Sim Abuse and owners believe this is a common ploy to avoid warranty service. <br /><br />I noticed a number of posts that claim that even exposing the phone to cold using it in high humidity areas like Florida can cause all water damage indicators to turn red and void your warranty. <br /><br />Considering my current problems and that I have had three other Samsung Android that had major issues I can't give a positive review to Samsung or the Galaxy SIII.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40733#review40733 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40733#review40733 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 15:14:08 GMT <p><i>Digicall01 submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>The best phone to date.

The GS2 was the best, in my opinion, but this phone adds a faster processor and more features. The lower-rated reviews either had bad phones, or are simply not accurate... for example, I have VVM on my phone, and my internet speeds run circles around any iphone, especially in LTE areas, obviously. This phone is slightly better than the One X in my opinion, because of the removable battery and expandable memory. Both phones have the S4 processor which is simply amazing, but the GS3 has more RAM. I love the screen, as it is readable in daylight (This particular Pen-tile screen is actually the best all-around screen I have seen as of today). HD+LED=Awesome. The iphone 4s just doesn't cut it, spec-wise; and to compare this phone to the i4 is just ridiculous. The I5 should catch up in regards to hardware, and from there, it will be preference between operating systems. But if you like Android, This phone is a must-see... <br /><br />Pros: Battery life, Processor, LTE and HSPA+, screen, Camera is AWESOME. Quality and build feels better now, though the Galaxy phones have actually always been more durable than they feel..<br /><br />Only complaint is Swipe on this phone, takes some getting used to... saves words that you typed incorrectly, and then swipes them on accident... <br /><br />Also this is a large phone, but that aspect is opinion and perspective-based...</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40724#review40724 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40724#review40724 Sun, 29 Jul 2012 05:28:30 GMT <p><i>Samsung111 submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Sorry to say that this model drops calls on a regular basis.

The Captivate was my first Android smartphone. I've also had a Galaxy S II Skyrocket , a Galaxy Nexus as well as a One X. While all of those devices were SO SWEET in their own respects the Galaxy S III blows them ALL out of the water hands down. The 2GB of RAM makes this device FLY and lightning fast speeds. There isn't one bit of stutter or lag. All the motion controls are SO useful and EASY to operate. The S Voice app is OK even tho I don't use it much but it's still nice to have but Google Now is my preferred choice. I just can't say enough good things about this handset. However, every handset has it's pros and cons. And the major cons of this device are the AMOLED display which you can hardly see outside in sunlight unless you crank up the brightness completely. Battery life is OK. I can barely make it thru a day without having to recharge so I typically carry a spare around if I know I'm going to be out for awhile. The build quality.... well Samsung really screwed up there. The glossy plastic body is not only prone to fingerprints but it also is easily scratched and MUST be protected with a case at all times. I really wish Samsung would take a note from HTC's book in terms of build materials. I realize plastic weighs less but I want a device that doesn't feel cheap. Overall though, this is a worthy device and I don't regret purchasing it.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40706#review40706 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40706#review40706 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 06:50:00 GMT <p><i>Smartuser submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I don't have a lot of time.

Sure there are more bells and whistles, but simple things like typing "ya" spits out YAHOO, so i turn predictive text off, and "ya" always gets capitalized to YA...really? and they say its supposed to be learning as you use it...BS!<br /><br />no visual voicemail - how do people live without this?<br /><br />internet speeds - my ip4 was faster on the net, the gs3 does process things faster on Wifi(sometimes) but i have clocked them side by side over and over again, and the gs3 just doesnt process wifi as well max @ 11Mb with the ip4 averaging 15Mb. 4g is also a joke, ive known this since i use my bb9900 for a lot of email (work) ive pings it when on 4g and the most ive been able to get is 4Mb, again same place as the ip4 has maxxed out at 6Mb<br /><br />those are it so far - im going to keep the phone at least 15 days so that i can get used to is and report back with anymore pro's that i can find about the phone.<br /><br />These are based on things that i use daily, im sure other users will find different outcomes. <br /><br />but so far ip4s>ip4>gs3=bb9900</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40675#review40675 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40675#review40675 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 03:17:16 GMT <p><i>Jefesinbad submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I've had this device for 2 Days now and absolutely love it. My recent devices include the Samsung Galaxy Nexus , Rezound , Bionic, Droid X2 and Droid X (on VZW), EVO, EVO 3D and Phonton (Sprint). I carry an iphone 4s for work. The S3 is my personal device <br />Here's my breakdown:<br /> <br />PROS;<br />-Screen in crisp and a pleasure to look at. Colors are true and text is amazingly clear.<br />-Camera takes amazing photos and works like it should, smooth and worry free.<br />-Calls are clear and loud, no echoes or static.<br />-Data is crazy fast, processor works great and device maintains nice signal.<br />-UI works and interface has nice intuitive features which make it the best Android UI on the market.<br />-Beats Audio is the real deal. The sound from these earbuds is nothing short of amazing.<br />-The battery life is astounding <br /><br />CONS; None for phone</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40672#review40672 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=3801&r=40672#review40672 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 18:31:55 GMT <p><i>Nixoncarmichael submitted this review of the Samsung Galaxy S III (ATT):</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>In the past I've had a couple of iPhones, including the 4S and 4, as well as the SII Skyrocket. I have to say that this is a top of the line smart phone that can compete with basically any other device out there. It really just depends on your personal taste.<br /><br />Pros:<br />FAST LTE Data. (On AT&amp;T's network, I've never used Verizon at this point.) The data is even damn fast on AT&amp;T's fake 4G (HSPA+) network. No complaints on data.<br /><br />Awesome Camera Quality.<br /><br />Reasonable call quality.<br /><br />FLASH.<br /><br />HUGE and BEAUTIFUL screen. Its big enough to look awesome but just small enough that its not a bother.<br /><br />CONS:<br /><br />There are only two things on these Android phones that they can never get right, relative to Apple and these are my two complaints on the SIII:<br /><br />1. Flimsy body. Every Android phone I've ever used, while good, just feel cheap. I almost feel like if someone farts in my direction the phone will disintegrate.<br /><br />2. User Interface. Like the SII, I do not like how the interface of the phone is set up, I know that it is completely customizable, but I don't really feel like taking an hour to jack around with screens and position it to my liking. <br /><br />Thats basically it, if you like Android phones and can put up with my two complaints, then you'll love this phone. Its pretty awesome. If not, then you won't. Anyone who is looking for a suitable alternative to Apple would do well with this phone.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=3801
