I'm just about to make the switch from an iPhone to a GS3. I was at the ATT store the other day and overheard a customer complaining to the ATT guy about her new GS3. She was having reception issues and some other problems. She wanted another phone. ATT told her, "Sorry, you didn't get it here so take it back to Best Buy". I guess that is the one drawback. If you buy through ATT, they stand behind it and will let you switch to another one if necessary. If you buy elsewhere, you're on your own. I doubt most people run into this situation. But, it is something to think about.

You're right Tom. I also asked the AT&T representative when I bought mine about the difference on buying a phone from BestBuy and their store. He mentioned that if there's a damaged or something wrong in your phone, you can go to any AT&T stores to replace/repair it. So to avoid any inconvenience just in case of something wrong in our phone, I bought mine in AT&T store.
