I think galaxy note 2 is like a tablet. Maybe around 10.1 inches in screen size. So it won't be so much of a phone

Sure galaxy s3 is worth buying dude. the fastest quad core out there. If you want bigger screen, wait for Galaxy Note 2 or 10.1.

s2 is a better value for money...rest its ur bucks...
its better to take htc 1 x. this device s3 is highly over priced idiot samsung.
i will stick to dual cores for now as quad core is not worth buying now.
thats my view
note and note 2 are toooo big

HAHA Processor frequency and number of cores don't mean higher performance. A good processor needs a good architecture. In this case, Samsung Exynos Quad is definitely better than Nvidia Tegra 3.
In my opinion, don't get a quad core smartphone this year. As they're only with 2 additional same level ARM-A9 in the chip. I would recommend you to get the Snapdragon S4 powered smartphone. As it has 2 ARM-A15 processors inside. One A15's performance is actually stronger than two A9. The idea smartphone in this year should be Sony Xperia GX or HTC One S with the HD screen missing but other than that, One S is awesome.

I can't, i have to chose from one of these.
But thanks for the reply.
i dont want to start new topic so i will ask here.
I want to buy new phone.Max price limit is 300e.
I m choosing between desire s, nexus s or maybe desire.
sure all of them have great screen, however i am little bit worried about nexus s because it doesnt have gorrila glass. so i dont put my phone in pocket with keys but you never known how can it be scratched. so is the glass of nexus hard to scratch like gorrila glass or not? and if not will screen protector help in gorrila glass way?
second demand are roms. i like miui rom from screens and i read that ics miui was released today for nexus s so its pro for nexus. so i need just these two roms, ics and miui.

That's the weakest device on your list .
So, I have been using my SGS3 for about 6 weeks and I am loving it. This phone is loaded with so much technology that I can not really see what more I would need in a phone.
1.4 dual core CPU
2GB memory
LTE
GPS
Music and video player
Gorgeous 4.8" screen
Will this not last me a few years? This phone will not be obsolete any time soon.
What more would I really need in a phone? I know in the future phones will have more stuff built into them, but to what end? I can actually see myself using this phone until it is dead.
I know there are people who upgrade to the latest and greatest every time something new comes out, but the average person does not. So, will you upgrade to what ever comes out next , and if so, why? Or will you keep your phone for a while?
For those who will upgrade, what would you like to see in the next phone that the S3 does not already have? Coffee maker? Juice squeezer? Clothes Iron? Hamburger maker? Nail polish applier?

For me, is simply depends on my budget. If I got the money, I just change whatever best phone comes out

this ^ plus there's bound to be a whole host of features... Soon (well I'm hoping) phones will be completely voice controlled. although I quite like the gesture control (someone over in the apps forum has developed something)
There are never "needs" to upgrade just "desires". I will be upgrading if the next phone has HD Super Amoled Plus.
I've had all iphones ... then changed to android with the S2 and now the S3, i'm prepare for iphone 5 or Galaxy S4 ...

Depending on the design of the next Google Nexus phone, I'll be getting that.
Most likely it will be a Motorola product
It will be obsolete in 15 months. Trust me.
When the S2 was released, about 1 and a half years ago, people said the same thing: it'd the "the phone" for years to come. Now that I've had my S3 for about the same time as you, I look at my old S2 (that I gave to my wife) and think how was I able to use such a tiny screen!
The thing is: our expectations will shift upwards, new technologies will emerge and things we don't even know that exist today are things that a couple years from now we won't be able to live without.
I refrain my self from saying "this will be my phone for xx years", because I am a tech addict, a gadget junkie! I remember clearly that a couple weeks before the release of the S3 I wrote in the XDA S2 forums that I wouldn't spend a dime on moving from my S2 to the S3... until I held it in my hands! I wrote that there is nothing in the S3 that I couldn't have from the S2.... how wrong was I ?

Exactly the same with me
If they make a phone with
- no wake up lag
- no physical home key
- 2 GB RAM
and leave everything else the same as SGS3, I'll buy it immediately.
Galaxy nexus would be a perfect phone for me if it has sd card slot and better SoC at least like s2, now when google put tegra 3 in nexus 7 which performs really well it's obvious that next nexus phone will be equipped like this or even better . So i'm 95% sure Nexus 4 or whatever it's called, will bey next one

Go for S3! There won't be S4 anytime soon, so... There won't be a better phone any time soon, so, until then S3 will be the best phone in the world!! (Just like the S2, two years in a row!)

If u have a galaxy s2 . i dont think u should upgrade to galaxy s3
because there isnt that many new feature in it that is worth the upgrade
the galaxy s2 is a great phone and it will suit your needs for another year
so stick with s2 till s4
trust me i had s2 and i went for s3 and i didnt find that many new stuff that was worth the upgrade
The main improvements over the S2 for me are much better screen, call quality (clarity and no echo), hugely improved audio (even better than S1 thanks to siyah audio tweaks) and much much better battery life. Plus an improvement in looks IMO.

Keep the s2. Best phone with minor things missing which can be ported from s3.

I've had my S3 for 2 days now having upgraded from S2 and to be honest so far I think my S2 was better. I was running wajk miui on my S2 and it was great. running stock on the S3 at the moment but i'm finding lots of little bugs. motion to put your hand over the screen to stop media doesn't work, s-voice is pretty crap and it doesn't seem anywhere near as fast as my S2.
Having said all that I'm going to persevere with it and try different roms til I find one that makes it run much better.

Personally, right now if I had the choice of SGS3 and Note 2 I'd go for the note. Faster CPU and more RAM, bigger screen, battery and S-Pen.
Wait for the Galaxy Note 2 if you can put up with the huge screen (in some cases it's the bigger the better but that screen is a little too big for my liking)

Thanks for your reply, but S3 mini isnt launched yet and Ace 2, i dont think it's good, i have an Ace and it sucks.
Bump to the top...
Nexus S is about $250 on ebay?
Best bet to get a high specced phone that cheap would be a minor chinese branded phone. (Xiaomi MI-One)
Or maybe go for a second hand Seansation XE.

Lulz. Just because both got similar name and one of it sucks doesnt mean the other one sucks too. The original ace uses ancient 800mhz armv6 cpu and adreno200. Ace 2 got dualcore 800mhz armv7 cpu and mali400 gpu. Its like comparing a dinosaur with an ufo.

When i heard the S4 was going to be an octa-core phone i was like "Hell yeah!", now that we know were only getting a quad core? pass. I MIGHT have gone for the S4 mini if they didn't nerf the specs so much. No HD, no quad core, slower processor... wtf samsung?
For now im fine with my phone. If it breaks i can buy another one used in excellent condition for $150. We got Jellybean, we got a quick enough dual core, we have a decent screen, not HD but doesnt need it at that size... Really what i have is enough, software can always be updated and ported over and thus far the hardware has not advanced enough to justify laying down $500+. If only HTC would unlock their bootloaders and add expandable memory and have amoled screens, i much rather the form factor (and front speakers) of the One... lol. Oh well, cant have it all eh?
Fantastic. Another one of these threads. Exactly what XDA needs.
