Should I hold out for the Samsung Galaxy S3?

btw... download foxfi... free 4g internet from ur phone

I think I like HTC sense better than the Samsung Touchwiz, but that may just be because I was used to using it for the past 2 years. I'll look into foxfi, thanks

It's scratch resistant, but not completely scratch proof. Getting those will just be an added layer of protection. I got a screen protector and a case for my phone, but I've only put on the case for now. I'll take pics some time later this weekend so you can see it with the case. It looks pretty sick with the blue case.

depends on how protective you are with the phone? if you want it absolutely perfect more protection is better

so I reactivated my tbolt and it's great to have 4g speed again. I have unlimited data and tether from my phone so I don't pay for internet access at home. It's too bad because the sgs3 is SUCH a cool phone. I am thinking about trading for a razr maxx to see if the radio is better

That sucks man. Have you tried calling VZW about the issue? At home I just use wifi on my phone.

sold my sgs3 for 550 cash, made a 335 dollar profit. It is an incredibly cool phone but since I live in a fringe area for data I'm going to stick with my tbolt for now. Enjoy those phones guys

Typing from my samsung galaxy 3 so far I love it

SgtGoldy · 07-10-2012, 07:57 AM

IMO Skype is horrible and stays running in the background and the call quality is sub par. I use Tango

. Try em out too

HKYStormFront · 07-10-2012, 07:58 AM

yea i've heard tango is good^ never tried it tho. i'm not a big fan of skype to be honest, i was just trying to

a little

FVCK!!!!!

My phone already cracked! Took the case off for like 2 mins to put an sd card in, the phone slipped and fell from less than 6 inches off the ground and cracked along the side and part of the screen. Weak azz phone, it's supposed to have gorilla glass! WTF?!!?!!

Guess I have to go to the Verizon store to get a replacement now which will take forever to get here.
