    I got my phone two days ago and like it well, it has a big screen to put lots of apps, I seem to be able to type faster on it, it also has a nice sharp and clear screen, I enjoy S-Voice and it works well for calling people and asking about the weather but not texting unless u are typing something simple like I love you ; mostly it is a novelty but a fun novelty nonetheless ; the S-Voice launches by saying a wake up command or double tapping the physical home button and then u have a touch button u push and then say the command or double tap the home button again, and things seem to load really fast, it also has good voice quality, I have only a few complaints ; the worst part is the menu's and operating system which I wrote about in the Google Android how to section, the other thing is that it feels too thin but that's easy to get used to or change by getting a bigger case, other then that I am overall satisfied with the phone I give it an 8.0 out of 10 which could easily become a 10 with a software update and different case, I hope you enjoyed my review I will let u know if I discover anything else worth mentioning about the S3 later :-)

    Great review!

    From what you've said, it seems like it's a decent phone. I really like a phone with a clear screen, so it's nice to know the Samsung Galaxy S III has a good screen.

    Thanks for posting!

    Is there anything else you've noticed about the phone during the past couple days? Have you downloaded any applications for it yet? If so, which ones? How does the phone perform when using the applications?

    I use mostly Tapatalk and Facebook, I also downloaded Super Keyboard meaning to download smart keyboard but I seem to like super better, I also got some battery/performance Optimizers, it seems that the screen gets dirty easily, and another thing I noticed is that the power button is on the right instead of the top but I got used to that.

    It has been recommended that those with Android don't use task mangers. I know you mentioned a battery optimizer and I'm not sure if that is a task manager or if it just handles things such as WiFi and the display brightness.

    I just had the opposite experience with the power button. I had a phone where it was on right, and now my new phone has it on the top. It doesn't bother me though.

    I'm glad you're enjoying your phone. Please keep us updated.

    I used it was a battery saver, now I use NQ mobile optimizer and NQ mobile security, I have advanced task killer now and that setup works well, and now I think I like my power button better than my last phone .

    Even though the phone has a large screen, is it still comfortable to hold when talking on it?

    Yes because it has a thin bezel but the phone is thin but I like my case which makes it thick enough, I'm not sure what kind of case it is but I'll find out soon

    I would recommend otterbox but the commuter won't fit with the extended battery so the defender wont fit either, I have some kind of blue honeycomb case for my extended battery which works except it makes the power button harder to turn on, it's a Hyperion case
