Looks like it will be my next phone.
Time wise it's matching up with my contract.
Screwed by Google. Canceled ICS upgrade on my Moto Photon. No Wow for us.

Samsung Galaxy S4 going to launched on 14th march this week.

Will cost a fortune for sure:crying:

i think its wiser to see real world performance before deciding..

I wish I could get it... If the things I've read are true, it'll be using an Exynos 8-core processor....

That phone is gonna be a beast...

I wish I could buy it, but I still have over a year on my contract with my S3. Damn it was nice to be near the top as far as how good phones could get, looks like I won't be there for long.

I just hope they dont go over board on the price..im guessing it will be like $299 with contract

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

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

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

[Q] After The Blaze, What Is Your Next Device?

I plan on picking up the S3 at or before launch. Which means I am dumping the Blaze. :-/
What will be the next device you move to?

I'm holding out hope that one of Google's alleged 5 or 6 different Nexus line of phones will release later this year and that I'll like one of them.
The Galaxy Nexus for example, irks me to no end because it doesn't have a memory card slot. I have a 64g memory card, and there's no way I'm ever downgrading how much music I have on my phone.

Wind has the Note II coming soon too to Canada. I just got my SGS4G though, so it would be a while for me to get that. lol. I go with their tab plan, pay your bill and they apply 10% of your bill to pay off the phone. Maybe it will lower the price of the S3 though.
That sounds like the tmobile value pan here in the US. Pay a small fee to buy the phone then part of your new bill goes to paying the rest of the phone off. We switched to the value plan, and our bill went down even with adding a s3 with unlimited data for my mother in law. Wife is picking up the note 2 as I write this. Probably the last post from this device, it has been a rock sold device for almost two years and we'll sit in the drawer as a backup now....

What are the specs of the galaxy S4? Is it better than the Galaxy Note 2?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
No offense but your friend is full of baloney
When the S3 was being worked on, a man wouldn't tell his his wife or his kids what the S3 would be like in fear of losing his job
In addition, samsung probably does all their designing of their flagships at HQ, which is korea. They also only have their top workers, and even then they made 3 galaxy S3s so that no worker would know if they were making the reall S3 or not.
Also, with many companies not even rolling out 4G LTE yet (which is pretty much 5G anyway), there is no way 5G is coming out anytime soon

It is already being produced which is why he has all the specs.

No. First of all, you don't live in Korea where it would be designed.
Second, since it is being released next year, they want a CPU of that generation which is not yet available, so we can't know the specs.
Third, he wouldd probably have lost his job by now since you have just told the world about it.
Fourth, any work on Samsung's flagships would be in a secret room guarded by secret people in a secret file, NOT on his computer where it could easily be hacked.
Just face it, your friend is just BSing you or trying to impress you.

Why can you not accept the fact that it is not true?
All big Samsung employees LIVE in Korea. That IS their home.
And if you knew anything about Samsung, they do NOT try to leak things. I even told you, to protect the secret of the Galaxy S3, they made 3 DIFFERENT models, and the designers thought they were making the real version when really it was one of the other 2 models. The Galaxy S3 had NO leaks because of this secrecy.
300 people? More like 30 in TOTAL. With 10 working on each phone, 20 are working on a fake phone, and 10 working on the real one. Once again, they don't know which is real or not.
And I'm going to smack the claim of 5G off too, because they don't llist specs as "4G LTE" or "5G." They would say the bands, like 900/1700/2100 MHz (that was an example).
Still don't believe me? Here's an article about Samsung regarding their S3, and how they kept it a secret.

Bigger screen? Honestly, you are being bsed and you are too stupid to admit it. 5G is technically 4g lte as he said, and the idea of a bigger screen is bogus.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I think this is hands down one of the stupidest threads I've ever seen. There isn't going to be a 5g, because 4g itself hardly exists on most carriers. And there's no way in hell it'll have a bigger screen than the note 2.

And Samsung would NEVER release details of the S4. They kept the S3 such a secret, if you read my article a few posts back.
And you still haven't come up with a reason why my points are invalid. All you said was he works for Samsung... well I work for Motorola and they're releasing the Motorola Atrix Bionic Droid RAZR 5G LTE GSM unlocked. Just because he works for Samsung does not mean he will know about the S4, like I know about the ABDR5GLTE

S3 still the best on verizon market?

Hey I have a chance to get a phone on contract and switch it to my unlimited plan on Verizon. I have an s3. Is this the best on verizon. My friend for some reason has really bad credit but has a chance to get new lines with new contract price. Then he is just not going to pay. Now this isn't something I would do but he did offered me a chance to get any phone I want for cheap price. Should I keep my s3 or just get a different phone and sell it.

Do you like the Note 2? I'd get that if I had the chance. If you want to wait a few months then we may see the GS4. The best phone currently announced is Xperia Z which who knows will ever come to VZW.

That's dirty, man.
yeah when you said "for some reason" your friend has bad credit.... Doing stuff like this is the reason. It's also why lots of people who are just joining verizon pay a $300 deductible for service. That being said, my gf has the SIII, and I'm still rockin' the GNEX running ParanoidAndroid. I'm upgrading my work phone and going with either the Note2 or the DNA. I think you'd get a better re-sale price for either of these 2 phones than for the SIII if that's what you're looking for.

Honestly you should blame the verizon reps. We went today and he was 250 past due. Usually they don't open new lines. He was going to pay it but the rep said its Ok I have a way around it so you can pay later. I was on the side like WHAT. What would you do. So not to a note 2 at 350? Instead of full retail?

Ya have you heard the rumored size of the note3. It's going to be 6.5 inches. I think the 5.5 is pushing it. I held the note 2 is not to bad but anything bigger than that is pointless to me unless you are on bluetooth headset all day for calls. The battery has to be humongous to power that bad boy.
