    Had an android before. Easy to use. Recommended it to my wife. She has the Samsung Note. Comes with some great apps. Should provide more products to go along with Androids, just like the Apple products. For now I am sold on Androids.

    I love my new phone. It has plenty of power, plenty of features and a screen that is just right for me. Not to big, not to small. The biggest issue, which is not directly related to the device, is the poor 4G service from Sprint.

    Great phone. Love the larger screen and the ability to multitask without having to close out other apps. Streams movies/tv shows great which is a plus for a mother was children.

    Overall I love this phone for 48 bucks (black friday). Make sure yours doesn't have the defect and you'll be happy. Only other complaint is that the os is already out of date. Havent noticed any limitations yet though. Withe extra memory slot storage space should not be a problem.

    Still learning all the features but love this phone. Many of my friends have I phones and this phone is as good or better without having to buy a new phone every 6 months like you do with the I phone and pay high prices to do so.

    Easy straight forward setup with everything. Learning how to use pictures and setting ringtones is confusing but overall I really like the phone. Big screen comes with big phone so it took a little getting use to. So far no dropped calls or texts. Nice touch screen.

    I have large hands so it is not a problem, but this phone is very large. The picture quality, sound quality, and call volume are all excellent. I do not like iphones, so this was the best choice for a die hard andriod fan.

    I thought this phone would be too big but everytime i look at the screen i appreciate the size for browsing, pictures. I still learn new features after owning it for a few months now and it amazes me with what it can do.

    Even though the Samsung Galaxy S4 is out the Samsung Galaxy S3 is still a great phone. Picture quality is very good. Phone functions are good. The only issue is I have found so far is the speaker is a little tinny.

    I found this was an easy transition from the epic. I was hesitant to change phones because life has been busy and didn't have time for a learning curve, the the galaxy s 3 was an easy phone to learn, very satisfied.

    Naturally this phone is rock solid in its workmanship, and also in its workmanlike ability to never waver in anything asked of it. I've never had it crash on me--NOT ONCE, and I've owned it for over 2 months now. I have tons of apps, an SD card installed that's almost filled up, and still the phone does not wince when called upon. The only nitpick I could possibly come up with is that on rare occasions it fails to recognize a finger tap on its touchscreen, but that could be me not giving enough initial pressure. That is so rare though that it's really not worth thinking about. Get this phone, you won't be disappointed! One can only wonder what they have up their sleeve for the next iteration, but if it's better than this model then LOOK OUT!

    Just about everything on the S3 meets or exceeds expectations except battery life, though it does better than the S4 battery, If Samsung put a 3300 - 4000mAh battery in the S3 and the S4, making them slightly thicker then it would be a solid 5 stars hands down.

    The two main reasons that I bought this phone was that I thought i was getting the same phone I already had but it wasn't. It turns out that different wasn't all bad it seems to actually be a better choice. It just was a little more learning than I expected.

    The galaxy s111 is a great phone. I love the features, there's always something new to learn and find; like the widgets. The size is perfect. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in a great phone.

    I upgraded from a BlackBerry Bold and love the phone. I did get the phone for 40 dollars so it made the final decision between it and the Iphone 5. I have absolutely no regrets. Fast processor and never freezes.
