If you really factor in looks as the number one priority then you must really love the cover you are buying your phone.

              You people have to stop complaining about the design being an all glossy body. I know many people were in awe shock by the iPhone 4 design and it's made out of glass which is really glossy too. Just saying.

                      Well..personally I like the look, I get the whole smoothed rock thing they were going for, and it appears more comfortable to hold than my boxy droid x. I like the Nexus-style curved body, and I also like the plastic (wont shatter if i drop it like the iPhone...But, then again, I will probably never see my phone's body as it will be covered by some form of protective case anyway..so it's not really a factor.

                          Very huge in hands, feels plastic like nokia 5800. screen is ok could have been better with AMOLED PLUS, would be better with RGB instead of pentile display. Not a spectacular phone. not worth the hype. bit of a let down actually.

                                  I have some reasons why the s3 is better than the s2 and some other phones.
                                  27 reasons why s3 is better than s2
                                  Camera:
                                  Much better battery life (2100 mAh)
                                  0 shutter lag
                                  Front camera HD video
                                  Burst shots (up to 20 pics)
                                  Backside illuminated sensor
                                  Space:
                                  upto 64 GB internal
                                  can upgrade to 64 GB microsd card
                                  50 GB free Dropbox storage (for 2 years)
                                  64+64+50=178GB of storage and if the 2 years has expired 64+64=128 GB
                                  Other features:
                                  Bluetooth 4.0
                                  720p screen
                                  Gorilla glass 2
                                  NFC support (S-beam can transfer files upto 300Mbps)
                                  Advanced Voice Commands
                                  Quad core Exynos 4212 1.4 Ghz (Benchmark shows its the fastest chip ever and uses less power)
                                  Faster Mali-400 GPU
                                  Pop up play (multitask while watching a video)
                                  Direct call
                                  Wireless charging support
                                  Improved Wi-fi
                                  Thinner bezel
                                  Slimline back (not a chin like the s2 has)
                                  More ergonomic design
                                  GLONASS support (more accurate than GPS)
                                  Smart Alert
                                  Smart Stay (Eyeball tracking)
                                  LED notification light
                                  Allshare cast (Allows you to mirror your screen onto a TV.

                                  So if you think it's not worth upgrading from s2 to s3 think again.

                                    I think s3 body looking is not better. S2 body looking is so good.

                                      When I buy a phone, I want looks, tech, and features, in that order.

                                      iPhone 4S is still the winner here. I always try Android, SGS2, ONE X, and im sure the SGS3 is not going to be much different to the ONE X.. Apple is just too good with the music organization, too good on the app store, too smooth on the UI, and just too nice to hold.. 4.8 inches for a phone.. really?

                                      I agree with the other here, 4.3 inch MAX for a phone thats high end..
