samsung galaxy s3?

For anybody who has got one , has anybody regretted getting one ?

After weeks of being 100% sure i was going to upgrade to the Iphone 5 . I am now thinking i will go with the Samsung as you get better deals on this.

Just wondering if in a few months i will regret it and wish i had stuck with a Iphone.

I went from an iPhone 4S to the S3 and i have never regretted it. So much to do with it, ways to make it look etc..

Best move i ever made!

I have both the i5 and s3. I much prefer the i5 but then I am an apple lover. If I had the s3 as my main phone I personally would regret it.

I would regret having the i5 over nearly any other phone

In all honesty no one can answer this for you can they.

I was also stuck between Samsung Galaxy S3 or iPhone. I went for the Galaxy S3 and I couldn't be more happier! Do I regret it? Far from it

Me too!

I was talking to a taxi driver a few days ago, he admitted to being an iPhone lover but then went on to say that he was disappointed with the iPhone 5, he said it's just the same phone but taller, and that's why he wont be paying over the odds for it.

They are all just phones so anyone buying one and changing their mind is just bored or fickle.

Anyone know when those 128GB micro SD cards come out?

64GB micro cards are now well under £40 now but still no sign of 128GB.
Toshiba and Samsung have their new cards next month so maybe 128GB from Sandisk then?

I upgraded from the iphone 4 to the S3 a few days ago and I'm still undecided. I was one of those people waiting to see what the iphone 5 was like before upgrading and was left quite disappointed. I got a good loyalty deal with Orange paying £13 less a month (previously paying £36 per month) so was hard to refuse. It took a while to get used to a different OS having had the iphone for 2 years. Apart from the obvious with the S3 being a lot bigger than the iphone, I do think that the phone has a lot going on and will not use most of the features. At least I have 14 days to make my mind up. With most contracts now gearing towards 2 years you've got to ask yourself whether you're ok with being stuck with a phone for that long.

I'm now trying to figure out what the best app is for copying my itunes library over to android. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Isn't it just drag and drop?

I have no idea, but I'll give it a go. I was told to use an app to transfer my music over. I'm not used to this android malarky!

This is a useful review of the S3

"hi sex part" is funny too.

I do think S Voice is a bit disappointing in this video, is it because of her accent?

Yeah you can just drag and drop your music into a music folder on your S3, no need for any apps.

The op is saying I want to go with an s3 but 'will I regret it' I was saying no one can say if he will regret it later. I can tell don't buy the iPhone like he does normally but I cant say going cold turkey from the iPhone will be something he wont regret.

You know what some people are like when they have their apple stuffed removed (sometimes surgically)

You need the easy sync app if you want to transfer your iTunes library direct to your phone, I used it on my wife's phone, it was very easy to do.

I used an app called iSyncr.

It was easy to use and also copies all your play lists and artwork as well.

Also a player called Rocket Player works well with it.
