Galaxy S3 - sounds promising - IF.......

.... Apple don't complain and go to legal actions about patents, glass and metal case etc., after first have released Iphone 5 before the SII hits the market.

It's anyone's guess at this stage what the next Samsung Galaxy smartphone is going to be like, lots of rumors doing the rounds personally im happy to wait until next year with the GS2 which is still the best in the business.
[The rumored specs of the GS3 though do sound amazing]

Awesome specs but I wish they provide better software support to existing sgs n sgs 2 my sgs 2 is still on 2.3.3 waiting for updtes to arive in india n I dont wana flash as its already working awesome at least til warrenty lasts

For my part I hope Samsung do more both hardware, and software, testing before launching the SIII.
On Tuesday I'm going to send my S2 and Tab 10.1 back for repair.
The S2 have random locs/reboots and somewhat loose homebutton.
The TAB has watermarks/newton-rings.
Maybe I have been unlucky with my first Samsung devices but I have never had devices, 30-40 phones and pc's over the years, with faults like this after only 2 months use.

My samsung galaxy S2 has been very good to me.

I hope the 720p screen doesn't make me have to squint my eyes to see something. >.>
Especially when reading text. Dx

I am going to stick to my S2/i5 phones, but I can't wait to see what the S3 brings.
P.S I not been asked about my iphone yet and I am glad. (I have had two ask if my S2 was the Iphone 5, but no one has said the same about my iphone 5.lol)

You're claiming to have an iphone 5?

4.3" is big enough, add a case and you're carrying a novel in your pocket, 4.7" will be like carrying a box of cereal in your pocket. That said, if it's light, and slim, it might not be so bad.

I know some thing's about it, but there's no point of me telling about it now for the next day every one will know all they need to know. I have now really not been able to use it alot and I like my S2 better.

I don't care if any one think's I do/don't have an Iphone "5" or not. I like my galaxy s2 better any ways.
Edit: ontopic
I think 4core phones will be when the smart phone market nears it's highest point. The S3 may start to get Iphone like sales as well if it get's to the states faster than the S2.

more rumours originated from 4chan?

Obviously you do care, since you felt the need to bring it up in a completely unrelated thread...

Then why bring it up?
Did you see anything cool besides an iPhone during your time in the future?
If you really have an iPhone5, then that ABSOLUTELY is what this topic is about now...You apparently have something in your possession no tech publication, reputable news agency, etc have been able to get their hands on.
Wanna get your name all over the news? 15 minutes of fame? Post some pics/video. You'll make every evening news in the country.

I did not bring it up like I want to be cool or anything. I have had alot of thing's before anyone else:
Halo: ODST
Cr-48
A game I can't name at this time( They will come to get me if name it.)
And now the Iphone ok.
P.S Ok so not a lot, but you get the point. The Cr-48 was the coolest to me and I have not had the phone for long they are just geting them in. I did not think every one would be so mad, but the ICS thread should have spelled it out for me.
Now about the Iphone part, I was just saying I am unlikey going to buy the S3, but it should be cool and I can't wait to see it.
Edit: You will all see the truth on 09/4/11.

Oooooooo Crap!
Thats the worst Nightmare.
But there was a person with the same problem Maybe worse. He got his screen fixed from Samsung service center. Check the general section.
All the Best
EDIT
Check this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445425&highlight=screen

But for me, its not the external part (the digitizer) witch is broken but inside the phone, the LCD panel
If it was only this, i can change it myself

these guys fixed it on a very similar phone. so theres hope! might be cheaper just to buy another g3 though...
Im sorry for your loss

I went to a phone store and they ask me 60€ for repair, do you think its worth ? Or should i buy a new phone

Hm 60€ is about half of a new galaxy 3 phone. If you are okay with the phone pay 60. If you want a new phone and you can spend some money go for a better one. In any situation dont buy a new g3, just fix it That's my opinion.
PS: I just saw this http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_mini_2_s6500-3883.php I liked it..

Well he may not be interested in Rom development n may be happy with his stock Rom...in that case the stock Rom for this phone are pretty good.

I would have offered u my phone which is 1.4 yrs old but still in excellent condition. But I can't because of some personal reasons.

Bro don't buy this phone if you already had it go switch it up or something get a second hand nexus like someone else said or a second hand s2 trust me it's screen is amazing I would rather go with S2's screen then S3's higher resolution screen. S2's screen is amazingly clear, great color, truly vibrant color.

And an amazing burn in effect after 2 months of use.
Just get the nexus/S3 or just this device.. depends on your wallet.
Just saying, you'll probably find no one willing to sell you a device here, because the chance of being in the same place is slim, thus requiring annoying shipping costs and hassle, buying/selling a used one from shops is easier.
MY OPINION: If you can get the nexus/S3 used or new, get them and DO NOT ever think about this damned device again.

Come on guys. This phone isn't that bad. I don't see a need to be so negative about this phone.
I don't have any major issues with this phone. It worked very well for me on almost all ROMs that I've tried.
Of course this phone is not i9000 or i9100. And we all knew it when we bought it substantially cheaper than those models. Stop complaining and enjoy the moment (partially working video recording with CM9)

This ^
Everytime i update my SCL i feel like i bought i new phone! ICS works pretty good and day after day it becames always better and if understood correctly Dhiru is porting JB, so it' not over

Our phone us not that much bad in my opinion

i think our phone is better than i9000 expect gpu and development. if i9003 was an international model instead of i9000 we could have better roms STABLE including JB with much more developers. but just gpu is lower a bit.

The next Nexus should be announced in less than 6 weeks. I would suggest waiting for that.
The price of the S3 should also drop by then.

The Nokia's Lumia series are on Windows Phone - the ones that I've wrote about will have WindowsPhone , which already is making big interest on the market. The Asha series are still with Symbian.
I would give them a try. It's something different from iOS and Android.

Would wait a few weeks and buy the S3, most probably it's price will drop by the end of this month.

[Q] Need help finding new phone!

I want a new device
i do gaming
bigger screen = better
i want high quality display
i play game's, i want fast SoC and good graphics !
i wan't the device to have a wide range of CustomRoms and other stuff
good battery life :| but if it doesn't have it i can deal with it, just not less than my nexus 4 ! (around 4 hours :S with lowest brightness)
also, i had 2 Samsung phones, first one was note, it had LOTS and LOTS of scratches,i send it to warranty for motherboard problems one time, after i sold it, the guy told me it won't turn on again, after that i didn't have phone for a while and i got s4 instead of nexus 4 (long story why,) it sucked and it was laggy (at touchwis only + gallery) so i sold it ! and bought nexus 4
i don't feel like trusting samsung again, should i ?
price is also important, i have money. but i will pay if its worth it ! i mean... i want to save it for future!
currently im thinking of waiting for nexus 6, but it doesn't have snap 810
i also wanted to see what else is coming or what i can buy right now :|
and also i was thinking of getting an tegra k1 tablet !
++ i like the device to get dangerously easily rooted :|
