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

Damn, that is ugly!

100% not getting this, was fairly sure before, now I am.
Why would you make it blue?
Also reason I didn't get s2 was that ugly square cheap button, s3 looks just as cheap!
When you have a phone for 2 years its nice for it to look good!
Would like wireless hdmi tho
 
It's not that it's difficult, it just seems a somewhat strange thing to be planning already, especially when you've tried so hard to convince yourself the blue looks great. ;) :p

Nothing to convince myself about, I have always said the blue looks better than the white and I dislike white phones. That won't change.

I have also always said I'll change housing when black comes out...

So basically absolutely nothing has changed.

If black comes out, it's far from confirmed yet unfortunately. Unless I've missed something?
 
If that Ed guy is to be believed.

Otherwise I'll stick to the first plan of custom back cover although with the case I've bought I doubt there will be any point any more.

Where from?

I saw a similar deal on Voda, £25 for the handset and 500mb data, but it had £30 cashback.

My bad, that deals from mobiles.co.uk

It's the exact tariff i need really, i'm just not sure about T-Mobile or whether many better deals are gonna show up soon.
 
Nillkin have outed their S3 cases now in 3 colours, looks quite decent:

£7.88 with free del

I'll get one of these if the ROCK polycarbonate one doesn't seem to be all that although the texture of that one looks to be a lot better for grip.
 
Sort of off topic, but i just want to check i have got this correct for ending my Orange contract. I have been searching the internet for answers as i do NOT want to end up paying an extra month and i think i get what i have to do.

It ends on the 26th June, and as i understand it, i have to give 30 days notice so i will call them on Friday/Saturday.

Now, i would like to be able to keep my number if possible. So is the best way of going about this to ask them to send me a Pay as you Go Sim with my current number and then activate it, the day before my contract ends ( 25th June) ?

At least they share their signal with orange so you get great coverage.

Cheers for the link Mrk, just ordered one as havent really looked at any.

Will post what it feels like when it arrives :)
 
When comparing the S3 to the S2 I think it’s important to also compare the under the hood stuff like the individual components, tweaks and other bits. So far on other forums/sites I’ve seen direct comparisons with little (or no) mention of things like sound quality through both speaker and headphones (important for people using the phones as music devices), scope of features (Allshare Cast, Wireless channel bonding for example) and other tweaks within the software that can be done without having to root (battery %, CPU clockspeed control, font resizing and so on).

It’s those kinds of smaller differences combined the make all the difference and those things can only really be measured over time, not in one session of holding them both side by side.

I won’t be posting my thoughts on the S3 until at least a week using it. I already have a 2nd S2 at home and will have both white and blue S3 at home so I think that will give good insight into which is better in real world usage. I’ll also have the allshare HDMI dongle and C-Pen.
