Want to get Samsung Galaxy S3 - Pros and cons?

[Bryn]

I too am in similar boat.

Already have an ICS Sensation.

Will try wait for iPhone5

When I occasionally use my step-dad's or a friend's iPhone I appreciate my S3 even more. Not having the amazing SwiftKey keyboard is sufficient reason to stay away from iOS in my view. I go mad deleting characters to correct my spelling. The iPhone's predictive text sucks.

Hey guys, i'm due for an upgrade on Saturday. I've been an Android user since the galaxy s1 and i currently own the S2. I'm thinking about getting the S3 but i'm not sure if it's worthwhile to get one? When will the iphone 5 be released? Feedback would be appreciated

I own the s2 as well, and my dad just got the s3. Although I have to say that the s3 is pretty amazing, I suspect its not that big of an upgrade hardware wise except for the screen.

Don't flame, let me explain... lol that rhymes.
I have JB on my S2 and I would rather have a jb s2 than an ics s3. Really, its that much smoother!! And all the things you love about the s3 my s2 can do as well with jb and software(smart stay/fast camera/...) and some even better, like voice activation on JB.

BUT, the jb updates for the s3 is around the corner, so then I would say it is down to screen size, since jb would be buttery smooth on both.

I'm not knocking the s3. Not at all. Its an amazing piece of kit, but if I were you I would load JB on your s2 and try that out first. You will like it. And if you still want to upgrade you can.

I think if you have to upgrade the S3 is by far the best new phone on the market, bar none, and I would be really surprised if the iphone5 can change that.
