I am on my 3rd GS3. Purchased new from Verizon store a couple of weeks ago. 16 GB Pebble Blue. First phone had 4g connectivity/wifi dropping issues. Took it back to a different store and exchanged it here in Washington DC with a new Sim card.
Second phone was much better, the wifi issues were resolved and held a connection without dropping, however, the phone was squeaky and creaked whenever i pressed on it. Got to be pretty annoying so i called Verizon and let them know about the issue. My last GS3 didn't have this problem, neither the demos in the store i tried out.
I paid $200 for the phone and i wanted a perfect working device. The customer service rep totally agreed and set me up to get sent a new device through the mail.
New device came yesterday. All i have to say is that for those who are having 4G issues, wifi dropping, internet hanging up at times and connections dropping and not switching, please get your phone exchanged. My new one is working much better than the first and second phone. I work inside a building and before at my desk, 4G would have one bar, or drop connection and switch to 3G with the "ghost signal" on the last 2 phones. This new phone, i have been experiencing 2-3 bars of consistent 4G with NO DROPPING sitting here at my desk. Radios seem stronger. Not sure if the new GS3's are updated or what.
I am a happy camper, this is the way the phone should have worked.
