I've experienced my phone about 1 year.
On ICS i haven't got any problem it works like a charm.
but on 4.1.2 update i have serious issues over 6 months.
- Laggy UI
- 70 Mb or less usable RAM (Total 832 mb)(It's very low because even stock browser use 114 mb RAM when you just open that)
- Less battery life (2-3 times charge per day)
- Multitasking lags (e.g Sometimes you can't open Chrome+S Memo. It restarts itself!)
- Slow lockscreen wake up (Sometimes it do lag so much)
- App notifications receiving very slow (Like Facebook or Twitter. I doesn't had this problem on ICS)
- Slow response (Compared & based ICS Stock ROM)
General issues here. I regretting to buying this phone. Too bad Samsung. You killed a nice phone with mess update.
And one bad news too; Android 4.3 update is contains too much minor bugs and lag! Don't update your phone if you don't know how to downgrade it!
Some sources said, Android 4.4 is use 512 Mb RAM. At least when S3 uses 512 mb RAM we still have over 300 mb usable RAM. So i think we must get 4.4.
I just waiting for Nexus 5 arrived in my country (Turkey) if it not or receive too expensive i automatically go & but LG G2. Poor move Samsung, you lost your customers.

Does anybody else find that when pressing either the middle button or the power off button to wake up the screen, that it takes longer than usual to wake up? It used to take less than one second, but now i find it lags and can take up to five seconds to wake up! Is it only me experiencing this?

I don't know why many of you are complaining of JB 4.1.2
Its working absolutely alright.

I have no idea what other people here are complaining about the 4.1.2 update on the GS3. I'm absolutely having ZERO problems with it. None at all. It's running better than it did compared to when it was still on ICS. Maybe I'm just lucky.

for those of you who have freezing issues I have bad news. I did a full wipe and reinstall on all apps after I experienced that the phone started lagging a bit on 4.1.2. not soon after the wipe did my phone start freezing, most noticably when the mobile data was on and or when connected to a wifi network/hotspot. two weeks in and the phone died completely. in for repair or replacement. According to XDA it might be a Memory chip failure...if you have freeze issues and it's still under warranty, take it in for repairs asap...
