Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I've got to admit.....I'm watching the stream.....and I am definitely impressed. I just might, and I mean might......have to hold out for the SGS3. Surely I can't be alone on this, LOL?

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I was somewhat underwhelmed. The LTE has the better screen and quite possibly camera. Since the US version will also have the S4 and very similar sized battery, performance/battery life will be a wash.

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I have the Evo 4g now, love it! My daughter has had several Samsung phones and always has a problem with them. I will wait and get her, my wife, and myself the new Evo LTE........

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I'm not waiting on the S3, I'm going with the new Evo. The US version is expected sometime in the summer, and who knows if Sprint will have it or not (probably will).
I waited what seemed an eternity for the GN and I've been underwhelmed with the reviews. The new Evo fits me better, and I'm not waiting months more. - 05-03-2012, 02:13 PM #7
I think I'm sticking with the HTC myself. It will be out sooner for Sprint, and usually Verizon gets Samsung devices for some time before anyone else in the USA.
Sprint Customer since 2003, 5 lines, currently loving my HTC One. Previous phones - Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC EVO 4G LTE, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO 4G, HTC Hero, BB Tour, BB Curve, BB Pearl, Palm Centro, LG-Muziq, Katana DLX, LG 550, Sanyo MM 5600, Sanyo 8200, Sanyo 8100 - 05-03-2012, 02:13 PM

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I said I wouldn't jump on the "next great phone" bandwagon....so let me rephrase my earlier post, LOL. I still plan on getting the new EVO. The SGS3 might be an "add a line" phone though. Still need to hear about battery life, GPS, and carrier info first and foremost.

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
I have to say these phones stock up pretty close to one another.
Now I think the SIII is better then the International One X.
But the Sprint version they are pretty close.
I think it will come down to software preference. The internals will most likely be pretty similiar. - 05-03-2012, 02:27 PM #10
Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
The pentile screen on the S3 is a dealbreaker. Thanks for making this an easy decision Samsung!

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
With the exception of a removeable battery and the option for 16, 32 or 64GB model (exclusive of the microSD slot) I think the new EVO wins. Except that the GS3 looks beautiful.
I suppose I'll wait until I can grope both of them, but I generally like the HTC build more than the Sammy so this GS3 will have to really impress me. It is a great looking device though. - 05-03-2012, 02:44 PM #13

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
Removable battery, SIM and micro SD. Both devices have great features, but simply being able to remove/replace the battery could swing things in the SIII's favor. Hopefully, the 2100 mAh is enough to keep the SIII going for a full day of fairly heavy use. But, if not, I'm sure Seidio and others will have something available to help with the situation very soon. Carrying a charger around in my pocket isn't very comfortable. I think HTC dropped the ball on that issue. Too bad.

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
Seems like Sammy still has that plastic casing......and now that I have looked the articles over, it seems like they concentrated more on the software than the hardware. It almost has a iPhone-type vibe about it.
HTC EVO LTE will definitely be my main phone!!! - 05-03-2012, 02:49 PM #16
Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
If Sammy finally does timely updates, this could be HUGE!

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
Sticking to the Evo 4G LTE, myself...
SGSIII doesnt necessarily blow it out of the water... It'll come down to interface, and the Evo 4G LTE wins in that department, plus, I'm a sucker for an incredible camera!
Evo 4G LTE also comes out REALLY soon, Sprints iteration of the SGS3 probably won't land until Aug-Nov timeframe... Don't wanna wait that long. - 05-03-2012, 03:22 PM #20
Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
The new TouchWiz has a lot more features compared to Sense 4. Really I can't think of any new features in Sense 4 other than the camera software.

Re: Who's switching from getting the EVO LTE to the SGS3?
Evo for me. I just prefer sense over wiz. My wife has s2 touch its a better phone than my og evo but I like htc build quality better. I used to have a diamond touch then got evo, and its been hard for othee manufacturers to pry me away from htc. That doesn't mean they don't make quality products. Htc IMO is just now catching Sammy in screen quality.
