So got my S3, first thoughts, AMAZING. This is coming from an previous Iphone 4s user. Some of the things I immediately noticed to the Iphone is the obvious large super crisp screen. The phone itself is very user friendly, I was able to multitask a lot on this phone. Such as writing an email in the middle of a video, and having many apps downloading in the background. The S-Voice is actually better than Siri in terms of what "she" can do. More commands can be given to her, and she follows quickly.

Warning for people with small hands though, its a Large phone, so it does take two hands to handle unless you have big hands. I do so im good lol. Other than that the only other downfall or should I say (better on the 4s then the S3) is the battery life. But androids are known to have poor battery life anyways, however I think it has improved on the S2 in battery life.

Overall more than pleased with the phone, ran some speed tests and def much quicker than my 4s was. It really is Very fast.

I don't know if I'm going to get the S3, I may upgrade to keep my unlimited data though verizon and then just sell the phone and not open it. Then ill buy whatever I see off contract. I have a galaxy nexus right now to hold me over

I'll be the first one among my family to get a 4G phone and I'm excited to see the difference.

That sounds like a good plan.

You have the galaxy 2 right?
Its a motion phone too right ?..I can't figure out how to turn off that motion. And I don't see the option in motion setting. .Every time my phone rings and I go pick it up the actual phone .. it rejects the phone call cause I moved the phone.. I want turn that off. My wife phone doesn't do that on hers..hope this isn't a defect.

I did that it still does it. Only in the beginning when I reach for my phone or when its in my pocket it rings then rejects the call cause it was moving in my pocket or I grabbed for it
