Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Galaxy SIII is a great phone. I've had it for several months and suggested my wife and daughter get it. We were able to get the phone for free after using a Best Buy $50 GC. We received a GC for using Best Buy on our next renewal. The phone has a great camera that my wife loves to use for family photos and selling things on Craig's List.. The battery life is better than expected considering Android Smart phones tend to consume more power than any other phone. . My wife went from the Samsung Replentish to this phone. She was frustrated with the Replentish which had a poor battery life and wasn't even considered a smart phone. I never hear my wife say she hates her phone anymore so I think she's very happy with it.

Everything runs fast on this phone. I upgraded from an Evo 4 G and there is a world of difference in speed, sound, and picture quality. One thing I don't like is the preloaded apps that cannot be removed.

This phone is great. I like the better screne, love the larger keyboard, and it is faster than my old cell phone.

We have 5 of these exact phones. Just got this one Aug 1st. and unfortunately this one is giving us a problem. It keeps getting extremely hot and power cycling. At exactly 3 weeks old Sprint was not very helpful because we didn't have the insurance, even though the phone is covered under the manufacturers warranty still. Had to add ins. just to get it looked at for them to say it was the settings on the phone. They changed a bunch of stuff and now it only seems to happen less frequently. I do not believe it is the settings, As the other 4 phones are being worked just as much and have never had a problem for almost a year now. from my experience with the other 4 on our plan, I would recommend this phone and I think it has all the bells and whistles that are needed. Unfortunately our service is with Sprint and that is the downfall.

I was reluctant to go to this phone from my HTC EVO 4G; I am not a tech geek that has to have the latest and greatest, and I was actually wanting a smaller phone. Over all I am happy with this phone. It has been easy to transition to and the size has not really been an issue, probably due to how thin it is. I am usually on WiFi in Denver since Sprint has yet to move to 4G LTE here, but even on 3G the phone is fast and the internet is not an issue. I thought my EVO 4G was the best phone I ever had but this one is quickly proving itself better. I was considering, and actually leaning towards the i-phone 5, but chose this one instead; so far I am very happy with that decision and don't look back.

It has a large & crystal clear screen, but the larger phone is almost too large for pockets. It is very light and requires a case for protection. I don't have too many demands, so more than I need.

My husband and two girls love this phone. They say its easy to use and right in size. They like big phone and the love the apps use.

I love the big screen andbthe purple color of my phone. The battery life is not the greatest for someone who uses the phine a lot.

I switched to this phone from the HTC Evo 4G LTE. This phone is just plain faster in processing. I had been a dedicated HTC user for a few years but love my Galaxy S III. I considered the Galaxy S 4 and the HTC One when changing phones, but could not justify spending $200 more for only sleep ghtly better features. This is a great phone for all comfort levels. My only complaint is that no matter what settings I try, the photos get very grainy when zooming to take the picture...a lot of pixelating occurs.

The storage on this phone allows my e-mails down load faster and I can actually get on the web. Easy to navigate from one app to another.The camera is great and easy to use. Is the best phone I have ever owned.

at first I was reluctant to get a new phone as my old one was five years old. love love love this phone. fancy, easy to use, great picture on the camera, so many apps.

Over all good phone and has been easy for us to learn to use. Had trouble initially learning how to 'answer calls' ... but soon learned. One of the four phones we purchased had a faulty on/off button - and the phone would not turn on, or turn off ... Had to deal with Best Buy phone calls several times. Phone was maybe a month old - but yet - we had to get a 'refurbished' phone. Not happy about that. Additionally, when the refurbished phone arrived ... It DID NOT work. Best Buy should have just given us a new phone instead but didn't and hid behind their rules, regulations and fine print. Phone is fine. Not so sure about Best Buy and their policies. they aren't looking out for the customer as they claim.

Purchased this phone as an add on to contract for child. The $49 price tag is much better than the $200 on the S4 and the quality is comparable for the users needs. Sprint makes you pay for 3/4g service for all phones on account, even if they do not use this service, so you might as well get a phone that is 4g. This is the one that is perfect for that reason. I prefer the Android system over the App store because of additional costs savings, as there are far more free apps using the Google Play store than the App store. I would recommend this phone as an upgrade, or as a first phone.

This is my first smart phone. It really is not too hard to figure out, but some processes would have been easier to figure out if it had come with an instruction manual. I like the color graphics and the wide range available to change my settings. The camera takes fairly good pictures, but sometimes the color is way off. It is a little bit big when holding it for a long period of time. But it is a great size screen for viewing pics and the internet. So, I guess it is a wash, as far as size goes. All in all it is a great phone for the price. I also like the fact that Not everyone has a galaxy 3, they all have I phones. I don,t want the same phone as everyone else. I think it is an acceptable alternative.

Love this phone ! Colors are bright and beautiful. Everything is so clear. Phone is easy to use and has many options. Galaxy S III is just a great phone !!

I love all the features the phone has the ease of use and I wanted a camera to be able to send pictures and to have a phone with it makes it even better.

This phone blows all the the other phones out of the water. I love the big bright screen, super fast processor, and the signal is better than my last phone.

I upgraded this phone from the iphone 4 from sprint. Sometimes its slugglish but that happens with every android device even with the other flagship phones. You always have to clear the RAM under settings. Every phone has pro and cons and doesn't matter what phone u have as long you are happy with it.The phone screen size is good for since its a 4.8 vs 3.5 on iphone which makes it better to view. I would recommend getting this phone if you plan on upgrading if you have the money get the S4 which is a little more better. Overall I give it 5 stars.

I bought this phone for my mom on mother's day and she LOVES IT! She has been asking me for a smartphone since last year and I finally decided to purchase one. I was a little concerned that she wouldn't know how to use it but I was wrong. She learned pretty quick, it is friendly to those who are not tech savvy. Only issue that we have is the lighting of taking pictures indoors or during night. The contrast and brightness seem to be off. However, the whole phone itself is amazing. Can't wait to purchase the GalaxyS4 for myself!

I researched extensively before upgrading my cell phone this year and heard good things about the Samsung Galaxy. So far, a month in, I'm very pleased with the Galaxy III. I chose the blue color and I find it to be very subtle but nice. The speed and accessibility of this phone are amazing and I like the variety of customizations that the phone allows. My only issue is that, so far, the phone doesn't allow the transfer of programs from the phone to the SD card but maybe that upgrade is coming down the line?
