AndroidAuthority review of the sGS III against HTC One X
As with each review do not treat this as gospel truth - it is just another guy impression. Don't be surprised you will find another reviewer who thinks differently

haha...lalat sesat..love your description!  rclxms.gif s3 software part really incredible..  thumbup.gif and i wonder one thing, why when 1X launching, not as much ppl go to their thread attack here and there..looks like S3 worry them more than other...  tongue.gif

That I would say is HTC Fans phobia - even at HTC Sensation threads ( the earlier threads ) you will read of Samsung SGS II bashing but you rarely find Samsung users bashing back HTC Sensation at the SGS II thread
As I said what is the point of bashing - if you like your present phone ( whether is HTC, Samsung, Sony,iPhone, LG etc ) enjoy it and do not justify your ownership by bashing other makes - it looks stupid to me by so doing
If you go over to the HTC One X thread , everyday you will read postings some one condemning the S III and saying how great and what a good choice they have make choosing the HOX. I have refrain myself from shooting down such users as I see no point in so doing

Galaxy S III 32GB and 64GB priced in Germany
16GB = €599/£499
32GB = €699
64GB = €799
"We hope retailers got it wrong"
(quoted from source)

anyone here already preorder? benny?

Crazy pricing. Even I have the money will not pay so much. For 32gb should not be more than rm2k if wanna compete with HTC one x

Yup. Sense has a nasty reputation of being smooth on display, but gets sluggish once loaded up. Can ask benny, not too happy about the fact HOX got sluggish once he shoved all his apps in.
*
The HOX shows obvious lag with HTC sense UI with 150 apps loaded but this was gone when I change ui to Nova. Just show HTC sense is still a memory hogger
My experience with Samsung phones worst is SGS and is the worst laggy android laying at the bottom of all androids I have used. The SGS2 is still I rate the best android phone surpassing even g nexus n HTC one x
Tablet series best is 7.7 follow by 7+, tab 10.1 n last tab 7

For Custom ROM, I beg HOX will have more custom ROM than S3.

Just look at Sensation vs S2 in xda forum, there are tons of custom ROMs and Mods for Sensation which also explains why Sensation got 21 pages vs S2 of 16 pages.

What a load of crap this is. Crap of the day comparing stuffs this way.

You are asking a strange question./ Phone not even officially available yet till 29 may. Unless any user here has connection with Samnsung and can get a unit on their hands
What's wrong with back button ? Press one time is enough

i was having trouble deciding on the One X or S3 solely because of the screen... but i guess i can say bye bye to the One X ady after seeing the below comparison....

http://www.staceysamsungmobiler.blogspot.co.uk/

the colour contrast of the Galaxy Nexus HD AMOLED is much better compared to the One X Super LCD2...

S3, here i come !!!!
*
I did some shots comparison between G Note ( pentile display ) vs HTC One X

http://leemn.wordpress.com/2012/04/04/brie...ng-galaxy-note/

and the Galaxy Tab 7.7 ( SuperAmolde Plus without Pentile ) vs G Note

http://leemn.wordpress.com/2012/02/23/disp...nd-galaxy-note/

I have used these gadgets and my conclusion, the pentile display being inferior is just an overrated exaggeration by only for those with microscopic eyesight.

I never have such issues in all the Samsung phones I have used ( Galaxy S, SGS II - both SME and AP, G Note both SME and AP ). Your phone is obviously defective if you faced such issues

i wanna sort according with alphabet or size or date.. i lazy to rearrange 1 by 1 when there r alot apps..


Added on May 9, 2012, 11:30 am
i order v charlie.. stand by 1 unit for me.. when will bp reach oh??

The apps cannot be sort alphabetically . It is Samsung standard, something which I never like and that is also one of the reason why I never like to use Touchwiz. I always replace it with 3rd party launchers. You acn use Appzorter to arrange the apps in alphabetical order but sadly this app cannot work in ICS
However with the S3 maintaining similar stand, I am wondering now if I use 3rd party launchers, how will it affect the other additional features of Touchwiz
BP Charlie - there are always behind those KL sellers - at least 2 weeks to a month. If you want fast get it online from forum lowyat sellers such as directd, alieamin, item.com, etc. Once they have it, you can get it the next day through courier

SENQ always at least 1 month later than SEP sellers. If you want a lower price, wait at least 3-4 months after official launch

Read GSM arena 2nd review :
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_iii-review-757.php

Their summary of the display:

The hyperglazed plastic will not enjoy universal appeal, but that might not turn out to be too great a problem - all eyes will be on the screen anyway. It's huge, it's got beautiful colors and deep blacks, it's sharp, and in short it's the best display we've seen recently. As expected, the whole PenTile thing didn't prove to be a big issue and you'll have to have a 20/20 eyesight and look really carefully to even see it.
