Bolt to SGIII?

This is just my two cents, but I really liked my GNex, radio issues aside. Yesterday I got to play with my old Thunderbolt and I it's still ticking along just great. Kinda missed it. Since I sold the TB, my family and I have gone through a Charge, iPhone 4, GNex and a Razr Maxx. I can see pentile, and it's kinda bad on the Maxx, but it's not a big deal on the GNex and I assume on the S3. The only time that I really noticed it on the GNex was when the screen brightness was turned down.
However, on the iPhone 4 and the Charge, the screens are amazing. Just a notch below that is the Thunderbolt.
Just my two cents, but I don't think that the pentile should stop someone from getting the S3 before the new plans go into effect.
It's a little small and there's not much said about it, but the DInc 4G LTE is a good phone too. I personally wish I had a chance to buy the One X, the screen on that thing is phenomenal. I got to use the 4G LTE at CTIA, and while it isn't the powerhouse that the S3 is, it might be something to really consider.
 
I haven't personally looked closely at a Pentile screen yet, but I think I'll give it a try and see for myself.
 
Yeah I'm getting it. My Thunderbolt is showing its age with the measly 768k RAM and single core processor. I might as well have a crap iPhone with a weak amount of RAM like that.
 
My personal opinion about pentile. ..depending on how close you use your phone it won't be as noticeable as some make it.

As you can see i'm typing this from a RAZR...and under certain conditions.and.held closer than I normally do I can see it.

I have a Rezound....had a g nex. Might be hard for some to believe....but at my normal viewing distance....all 3 look so similar its a wash. Held closer...yea the differences become more noticeable.

The screen on the gs3....pentile will be even less noticeable. The only thing that will help is to see the phone in person. Not pics zoomed in at 100x. That's not a real world use scenario.

Waiting for them to revolutionize the market again like they did when I bought the OG DROID... Moto has arguably the best radios and also great build quality to their phones as opposed to Samsung's light plasticy feel. They just need to get with the times and unlock their bootloaders

I will wait to see if it gets a good radio, unlike the Gnex.

I pre-ordered, as to not see my cost (for less data) go up $20 a month, but figure I've got 14 days to figure out if this radio sucks like the Gnex.

Had the extended battery for the Tbolt not made it look like some abomination (aka, usable), I might be inclined to keep my Tbolt a little longer...
