The only thing better than our phone is the screen.... a lot of ppl say its really laggy the att version at least. We will see

Note is nice but I personally think its too big. I see it more of a business phone, not personal at all.

Yea it is big but my boss has the att one and its really nice and we all know T-Mobile is faster so who knows might have different specs just thought it was cool that we might be getting one

Yay?

I still haven't had time to play with a Note yet, but its intriguing to say the least. It definitely looks a bit too large to use as an everyday phone but I'll give it a shot at least

You probably will be happier with the s3, it will be the next Gen phone.
Get the note if you need a tablet phone or high Res screen for more icons on the app drawer or something. I'm gonna wait for the s3 just because of the flagship and the proper balance of features and size and weight

If it comes to Tmo hopefully its the same but with an s4 processor

I'm really really really hope it's the Note! But, my next upgraded phone will be a toss up from the sgs3 or the note!

My uncle has the international version so I've had the opportunity to work on this device here and there. Using it daily really doesn't wind up feeling a ton bigger than the t989, only problems I've experienced are certain apps can't figure out if it's a tablet or a phone, so there's a fair amount of compatibility issues, but it's very slick.

But, and a big but, that phone is a Gen behind the s3

Instead of the infuse in picked up a cheap captivate

Let me say that it's is flipping sexy as hell really enjoying the captivate. So until I turn the infuse in I'll be over at the captivate forums I'll still swim team in to troll the nubs
From apple to android I've been there

Cappy is a good phone as well
i still swing by and mess with newbz lol
i got the note and im lurking in those forums now but still stop by here
Cappy has a lot of ICS support
have fun flashing

Gotz 2 cappy...great phone one running ics other gb...and yerp lotz of ics to choose from...

How much was your captivate

Infuse is close enough to almost beat it lol. If i upgrade soon, ill either get the note or one x. Or if the gs3 comes out soon maybe that, honestly can not wait until the note comes with the s4 then ill go for that anyday.

Refurbished Skyrocket coming tomorrow, need a little help

What's the best ROM to run? I'm currently running Samsung Infuse with Zeus ICS theme. Looking for a stable, well featured, ROM that has decent battery life. Any suggestions?

Sky IcS hands down. The newest release is absolutely butter. You do have to be meticulous in flashing but you already rooted and rommed your last phone so I'm assuming you got a little going on up there

I've managed to root, rom, flash, mod about three android phones now. My first was a captivate, second was the infuse, third was the atrix, so I shouldn't have an issue. I'll definitely give it a shot ^.^ Any chance it had mhl/hdmi support?

Another quick question, is there a big size difference in the Galaxy S II and the Skyrocket? I'm think about getting the otterbox at Walmart, but it doesn't say skyrocket. Anyone know?

It has to be for the skyrocket... the skyrocket is a little bigger than the s2 itself. Now I did use a infuse case on my skyrocket. It was the ballistic case for infuse. It was just a Tad bigger but fit and worked until I got my otterbox in from Amazon. BTW you can order an otterbox from Amazon way cheaper than you can get it from Walmart...

[Q] Skyrocket or Nexus

I currently have the skyrocket but have a chance to get the Samsung galaxy nexus. I live in Oregon so no LTE. I need a second opinion which is better for games picture taking and mainly overall performance. Would really love some input I'm stuck in between.

Nexus

Skyrocket has better hardware. Camera is better. Processor is better. Screen is bigger. We have aosp. Shall I say more?

Gnex camera is bad apparently.
Both phones are powerful, very very powerful. If you're comfortable rooting it honestly doesn't make much of a difference and I'd go with the Skyrocket since out of three things you mention picture is one of them and I've heard complaints about Gnex camera.
Without the LTE its a bit disappointing though. In all honesty you're choosing between two high end android devices, you'll be perfectly satisfied with either. Given the fact you're on XDA you must be some what of a techie, so maybe GNex is your best bet. Try out the camera first though

Yep there is a white nexus.. its not on Google's site idk y. But tried camera and love it so far thinks its better then skyrocket to be honest I couldn't get good pics with SR

Yeah. It has a glossy finish which is why I prefer the titanium one.

Really depends on what your priority is. If you're in an LTE market, Skyrocket seems to be a better choice. As a SR owner I'm considering selling and moving to a Nexus. If you need your phone unlocked than consider a plus for Nexus since you'll save $20 there. As others have mentioned look into the camera, I however use mine once a month if that.
I guess biggest part is how much Dev support you need. Nexus will keep you flashing everyday of you so choose. SR options are a bit limited but those who have worked on it have done a fantastic job.

I compared my skyrocket to my friends gnex and although the gnex screen looks better I would personally stick with the Skyrocket mainly because of the build quality. It just feels better in hand. Other than that, the gnex has an awesome community and more stable asop stuff.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

what!? ive been thinking about switching to Nexus since yesterday. Holy Crapple Crap!
How is it skyrockets screen is bigger? its 4.5 vs 4.65 Nexus. And nexus has 720p screen when skys is only 480p. LTe isnt important too me.. yes its super fast internet but i never found it useful. I mean if i had unlimited plan then Lte sure is nice but i have 300mb data and i find it enough for emails a couple pics and web. I used to have unlimited with ipoop 3G but my monthly usage was around 250mbs.
Does anybody knows if nexus front facing camera has auto focus?

Galaxy s3 mini

so now we have a s3 mini with similar hardware to s2 and will have jb so this could only lead to s2 getting Jb as well...
cost so far is 400$ euro which for Au dollars is about 500$ if true then its cost is far to much for a lower spec phone....

S2 is already confirmed to be getting JB.

i think it not worth

why???
so, what may be their intention for releasing this phone when S3 is doing very fine and other galaxy phones are also there?

I don't like the idea of the mini, there are still other phones out there that people can get instead of buying a mini. I do like Samsung though.

800x480 resolution?
1ghz dual core processor?
5 megapixel camera?
1500mAh battery?
Those are last years specs. Wasn't expecting this from a 2012 Galaxy device.

Yeah. The only thing the S3 mini has that is better is Jellybean. But otherwise its pretty much a Galaxy S1 with a dual core CPU and 1GB of RAM
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium

As others have said here and elsewhere I really can't understand the point of this phone. The specs are lacking in every way.

soon they gonna come out with a S3 mini LTE version...

While people like us here on XDA know about the specs, know the fact that basically this is a rubbish phone.
But to most people out there, they are going to see this phone & its resemblance to the SIII & its name [SIII mini] are going to assume that this is a smaller version of the SIII. These are the people who are going to form most of the sales of this phone & whom Samsung is fooling.
