I've been using this phone for a week, seems descent but not really blown away. Coming from an HTC inspire user this phone needs some getting used to. The good- big screen, lightweight, fast with minimal lag. has lots of options/setting.fast multiple camera shots, notification lights has different colors for different messages. picture in picture in video mode but not for youtube, expandable memory and battery. solid design. phone cases adds bulk. The bad- battery life could be better, one setting fit to screen zoom in web browser, map loads differently,auto correct takes longer to use. camera takes descent pictures HTC yakes better photos, slow response auto zoom camera. difficult to hold while texting. overall its a nice phone
This is my 1st smartphone type phone. It is great for what I need. No text, no internet, just a phone...does what a phone is supposed to do. One problem, I just found out I can't take it on a plane...due to the battery problems of late I suppose. Thank goodness I already had chargers for this particular model though.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I had a Droid X and I use an iPad so comparing the Samsung Galaxy SIII includes those devices. Battery life is pretty bad...definitely need a car charger and maybe a recharge device, too, especially if you like a screen bright enough to actually see: the battery manager makes the screen really dim, especially for the internet...had to turn it off. More app options than for Apple devices, but many of them are poor. Device does not have as simple management for settings as Apple devices, and the Apple devices make it easier to actually turn off applications with the OS, instead of having to find an app to do it, or go into the task manager to turn off apps, as in the Droid devices. My Droid X and the iPad both have better cameras than the SIII. That is a disappointment. My Droid X takes photos as nice as a camera with amazing detail when one zooms in on the picture. The photos on the SIII are not worth the time to take them: they are grainy and dull in appearance. The phone feels flimsy and kind of cheap compared to the other devices, so a protective case is probably something to seriously consider. The voice for text-to-speech in the Samsung program SVoice is pretty awful: a robotic sounding female voice that really is just annoying, IMHO. There are limited options for modifying the voice, none of them good. There are no options to replace that voice, and according to my research, many users just turn it off, which defeats the purpose of the program. The size is an issue for people with small hands: it is not a comfortable fit and takes getting used to. The bigger screen is nice, though, so it is a trade off. However, the size combined with the placement of control buttons is an annoying problem: volume control is directly opposite to the power button: I either hit volume control when trying to put the phone to sleep, or put the phone to sleep when trying to adjust the volume. This is just bad design because the phone is so big there was plenty of room to move one of them someplace else! The phone is faster than my 3 year old Droid X, but speed in internet is affected by the connection one has, too. Is the minor difference worth the large price tag? Only you can decide that... I will keep the new phone, but if my Droid X was not limited to Verizon, I would not. I actually love that Droid X, and I am not in love with the SIII. At home, I will still use my iPad.Read full review
Nice upgrade for many users. My wife loves it. Screen size is large enough so that you can actually use it! Internet, texting, bluetooth.. etc.. its all there. Good value cause its a little older so the prices are a bargain & the features are consistent with any of the newer phones, so you're not missing anything important. As with many products on ebay.. I recommend buying products here with a return guarantee attached to the purchase. You'll know right away if it has issues & won't be trapped without a warranty should it be needed.
I just upgraded from the Galaxy s3, I took the Iphone 5s tried it for almost a week and wanted to love it but just couldn't. The transfer of pictures, music is ridiculous compared to the ease of the S3, the picture clarity was not as good. The call clarity on both was equal, texting was easier for me on the S3 because keyboard was bigger. I also didn't like the idea of having to give private information just to use the cloud or itunes which both are needed on I phone to transfer pix and music. Then to set different ringtones you need to be a tech genius to create them on iphone whereas galaxy it's 123 download and install.. So I traded it in and paid the extra for the Galaxy s5. My wife was also considering upgrading to the iphone then said no way, as a matter of fact I offered her to trade before I exchanged the iphone 5s and she declined.Read full review
