Posting question about one X and S III in S II forum... nice one

why one would ask this, I have no idea - no-one knows anything about the s3... wait till May 3

Is this thread necessary?
How about you wait until the S III is announced, read some reviews (undoubtedly there will be comparison reviews of the two) and make an educated choice for yourself.

learn from last year...
HTC Sensation vs Samsung Galaxy s2 ??

Nothing at all to do with general chat, tips and tricks about the Galaxy S II

Galaxy s2 vs Galaxy Nexus vs Galaxy s3

I've had my I9100 for a while and currently its running Resurrection Remix Rom 2.5.3. I'm kind of getting tired of this phone but don't know which one should I get, I can trade my phone for a nexus or I can spend about 200-300 more on a s3. Any kind of input would be greatly appreciated. Or should I wait for the new nexus phones out due in October?

S3 way to expensive for what it can do, Nexus way to buggy low camera but best software ROM created by Google and S2 best choice in my opinion ...
Have a nice day.

Keep the galaxy s2 and wait for S4 quad CPUs + Adreno 320
Galaxy nexus will not be an upgrade for you
Because power vr 540 is much weaker than mail 400
Also TI OMAP 4460 is not better than exynos
The camera is 5 MP compared to 8 MP in the S2
The screen is pentile which is worse than your current screen (trust me it is the worst ever in my opinion)
Developers support is much better for the S2 compared to the Nexus
Good luck!

Stay with S2 and wait for Note II or the new Nexus, any other smartphone wont be much better from S2.

Yeah I checked out the nexus in person and I'm just looking for a better looking larger display with lte, I guess I'll hold out for the new nexus

Forget to buy those phones as it's late already. Only buy a phone max. 1 month after the phone is released.
I recommend the next nexus because google is the real boss in terms of android, not samsung.

Do you guys have any ball park guesses for the specs of the new nexus?

Search for those coming specs. No one can make this decision but you.

Worthy upgrade from Galaxy S3?

I have a T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S3. The question is; is it worth paying full price for the Galaxy Note 2 if you have A Galaxy S3? Is it a huge enough upgrade to pay full retail price?

I'll be able to tell you Tuesday, as I'm in the same boat as you.

No doubt buddy ...even i was in same dilemma..... but after usng note 2 the experience is rocking...large screen ...extra smoothness.....extra ram.....and S pen.....FROM MY POINT DEFINATELY WORTH EVERY PENNY ..
AND DONT WORRY ABOUT SIZE U WILL GET USE TO IT then s3 will feel like a baby in hand ....rest all ur wish and desire..

Well, if you sell your S3, you can significantly offset the cost of a Note 2. I've never owned an S3, but the times I've used them, they seem like a watered down Note. No S-Pen, no incredible battery life, no split screen apps, etc. I basically look at the S3 and feel it's a small Note with none of the benefits. It's kinda like a dumbphone, if you will, compared to the Note.
My take anyway. Up to you if it's worth the cost.

I have Jellybean on my S3 and still not sure if I should get the Note 2. If I still had the Galaxy 2 then I would upgrade in a heart beat.

I upgraded from S3 and I am very happy I did. Got bored with the S3 very quickly as I didnt find that big of an upgrade over the S2. But the Note2, best phone I ever had by far. It really is amazing. So go for it and I am sure you wont regret it.

I will wait a little bit for the pricing of the note 2 to come down before I buy it full pricing whether on eBay or a holiday promo.

Both excellent devices, the Note 2 is ideal if you want a bigger screen and more power, but either way the S3 is a great device.

Nice second is the Note 2. I honestly love Samsung as a company they add something new and exciting with each of their new phone. I just wish that they made better build quality. Though i understand they went for a skinny light weight phone and all. I really wanted a solid build like the Nexsus 4 the build quality is Excellent on the nexsus 4. Oh well maybe next phone they will have better build quality. If not HTC here i come haha..
Otherwise this is great news..
Here is a link in English..

and your reason why? like what other phone can beat the s3? xD I Knew it was phone of the year back in 2011!!!! how? IT'S A GALAXY PHONE! pure logic that it would win.

I'd say note 2 would of won if not then probably iPhone (say that with much disgust lol). HTC just can't beat the galaxy. They are nice phones but yea like look at the HTC one x+ still 1 GB RAM and no lte I can't understand why they wouldnt do what Sammy done and upped the ram lol oh well

I would have to go with the lumia 920 or HTC one X .......or iphone
Sent from my GT-I9400 using xda app-developers app

My opinion...
1. Galaxy S3
2. Xperia T (It isn't the most powerful but come on its sexy, and the Xperia UI is much much cleaner than Touchwiz and Sense)
3. One X+ (Sense is horrible, but camera, etc are great on this)

which will be your next handset after i9300?

1. S4/s5
2. Nexus4/4
3. note 3
4. Other android phone
5. Other phone?
Id intended to wait 2 years until I upgraded but 1gb of ram is working out to be ridiculously low and basically, while ideally id love to change to wp8 I'm addicted to android.... I'm waiting to see what the final specs of the note 3 and nexus 5 will be, and choose between the two. I'm thinking note 3 is the strongest contender as it will most likely be a powerhouse but pure android is tempting too

Definitely the next Nexus. Unless the unlocked S4 running stock Android will be available in Europe.

it's not been released yet

The Google Note 3

Note 3 for sure

nexus 4 or htc one..

HTC ONE ...

Note 3

I`am thinking of Note3 as everybody, but still waiting for Motorola X phone.
And hoping for phone with IP67 (water and dust proof), big battery and possibilities above S3 AND most important - with dock station with i can use my phone as home computer.

Hopefully soon an Oppo Find 5 or it's follow-up by the end of this year.
It's screen, sound and UI create the ultimate user-experience I honestly find unmatched by any other phone.
The only reason it's probably unknown to you is it's lack of marketing in comparison to the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4.
It's something you guys should really check out! :good:
