The Verge > Engadget
:P

For actual reviews yes, for live coverage hell no.

Engadget covers the atmosphere waaaaay better.

Example right now the verge =

7:52 pm We're here, and in the front row. House is full of media types, as usual.

People are beginning to settle down. It actually looks like most people have a seat. Whatever estimate I gave before, you could maybe double it.

It's very deliberate. Blue and white.

There are blue and white blobs dancing across a massive screen at the front.

The music is some kind of chill-out track. Totally jarring because everyone is hyped.

Hard to estimate how many people are sitting in this hall. Maybe 50 people to a row. 20 rows. Plus a​ whole bunch standing at the back.

Feels good to be warm. Welcome to London.

And we're in our seats!

Anyone with a live video feed?

I recon you can skip the live blog, just go watch the hands on vid over at http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-preview-hands-on/

Yep I am waiting for this one for sure, Samsung did not let me down, well except for the plastic, but I guess I can live with that esp looking at the res + CPU performance. Ooh and I like the battery.

Micro SIM means I can finally swap my iPhone sim with my normal phone....

Edit: HAHAHAHAHA calling it S voice.... I sometimes wonder if they do things to piss Apple off on purpose.

If the iPhone 5 disappoints then I'll go for the Samsung Note. 6 months to go.
 
Don't you like it? Why?

I am due for an upgrade at the end of the month...

It looks good. But there's two Notes in our office and it's more compelling than the SGS3 imo.

I've got an iPhone and an iPad so I'm used to it and got the software, cables, chargers etc. So if the iPhone 5 comes to the party I'll probably just stick to it for the sake of the stuff I have already.

That makes sense.
 
Voice recognition doesn't interest me in the least btw.
