***The Official Samsung Galaxy S III Thread***

[Too Tall]

Contract Phones only though - £800+

I get a 25% discount off vodaphone contracts so effectively £27 a month instead of £36.

If i didnt manage to get in the the first 1000 orders then i will be cancelling and looking for a deal as the tablet was a big deciding factor for me.

Ordered at 7:50pm so hopefully i was in the 1000.

Meh, i'll stick with my Galaxy Nexus. Not keen on the design of this.

but but but it looks like a GN with a HW button?

I've been ignoring the comments about the camera since they are infantile and show a lack of understanding. Not all 8MP cameras are the same and not because it's 8MP like on the SGS II means it's the same sensor.

Righting off the Camera before they've even seen proper sample shots - clever guys.

 

[Dangerous]

The camera will be good.

MPs means **** all

You can get a flip cover for this, so I'll be buying one.

Just a matter of white or blue

I don't think anyone has written the camera off, but people were reporting that it's the exact same one as the S II. I expect it will probably be a bit better at least.

It's got to be blue really and then hope it looks as good as the 'good' pictures of it.

Not keen on White, too Apple ish.

Not really liking blue either though.

Oh there is no doubt that the camera will be impressive for quality.

And I know that MP means **** all, just check the GN thread out regarding the camera and my posts

But again, Samsung usually come out top easily with the best hardware specs, so again it is a surprise that they didn't have a 12MP camera for marketing purposes.

I was thinking you could 3m wrap it

You have to buy a wireless charging dock and then you place the phone on it, and it charges... slowly.

No prices yet though.

A bit like my electric toothbrush?

Anywhere else got it on Pre-Order other than Carphone Warehouse?

Phones4U has it, a bit more expensive than the One X was, but its early days and better deals will probably be found nearer release.

im finding it very hard to decide between this and a one x now...
If you could gte a s4'd one x here that might tip the scales.

Sweet, it also has this bad boy in it! http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/products/audio_hubs/WM1811/

Benchies are coming thick and fast, and inconsistent ???

I'm not really sure what to make of it.

Many people said the One X screen put the one on the Nexus to shame, so if the S3 screen is actually worse than that, there will only be one winner (unless you're worried about black levels, of course).

How important to you are benchmarks, that's the only real question there.

£100 more expensive!!!

Link to said "good" pictures? I want to see.

Doesn't look bad from this angle if you squint a bit.
