QUOTE(Cynox @ Jun 16 2012, 10:43 AM) not really.. SII users still top the number of users at 1445.  But out there (outside of LYN forum), there are tonnes of new SIII users. My wife's boss's son and daughter who previously using iPhone all along, switch to their first android phones after kena poison by my wife's SIII.  My wife become the "guru" of android phone in her office now....lol... are you sure heavy memory usage will affect the performance of the phone? I think Android will handle it efficiently. I never monitor anything in my android phone since my HTC Desire>Desire HD>Note, except my data usage.  Added on June 16, 2012, 10:46 amno need to do any settings. You can deselect those apps that you may not want to keep in the new flash of ROM. But do a complete backup (system+apps+data) occasionally. The apps data is auto by default? You got do any other settings in preference? Got so many stuff in there...

QUOTE(wpl84 @ Jun 16 2012, 10:17 AM) i think that getting the 16gb model is better, since u can add ext memory card. this makes it a habit to backup your files more often. recovering from the internal storage is not easy unless u root the device, since ics now makes your phone detect as mtp and ptp when connected via usb. Guys would it be better to get 32G rather than 16G if price difference is about RM200.00. My view is to have bigger internal memory for faster retrieve of data/program. Any other views or review.......?????

With a hefty AUD 25 Fedex shipping to Australia, it is reasonable to expect that the phone will be the international version GT-I9300.

The system internal memory for installing apps is still 2GB no matter the phone is 16GB or 32GB, correct me if i m wrong though.  unless you want to max the storage as 32GB internal +64GB external.

It would be great having larger internal memory but i prefer my files to be on external storage unless you would want to copy full movies on your device. Just to share, my s3 was factory reset by samsung technician because the device kept on restart due to software issue. all my files and pictures are wiped off and no way to recover them. making use of dropbox. going to get a microsd card soon.

Even in Aussie not all carriers use i9300T, only vodafone and Telstra do and only through them will you find it in Aussie. Optus,virgin,unbranded outright etc. offers the i9300. i9300T is sold by samsung to carriers who utilises the 850mhz frequency networks and is sold in other parts of the world as well like in NZ and Thailand. Usually all this shops sell the i9300 and with expansys not being an aussie based company it's likely that it's the i9300. This post has been edited by Hikari0307: Jun 16 2012, 11:15 AM

I believe all the apps can reside in the phone 11.5GB storage as there's no more partition edi. The rest is for the phone system. It way much bigger than 2GB app storage plus 2GB phone system on S2 and GNote.

No, the SGS3 has a single partition for the internal storage which is the way google wants android device to move towards in ICS so the bigger the internal storage the more space for apps there is. It does not have separate partitions for apps and other data like older phones which is why there is no longer mass storage mode in the S3 since the phone will go haywire if the single partition is dismounted since all apps are in there.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Jun 16 2012, 08:13 AM) His remarks definitely sarcastic Even my wife who is a hopeless audiophile comment the S3 audio quality is the best she had ever hear from all the phones I have use.

Yes only first time wipe it will erase completely . Subsequent to that all further wiping data n factory reset no more erasing stuffs in internal SDcard. It is exactly similar to Galaxy Nexus

Now only i know the reason behind MTP mode, never bother to find out more about it.
