See it in person?

[Wontfinishlast]

Just wondering if anyone here has gotten desperate enough to look for a GS3 at a different carrier's store just to say they held one. I know I've already called around and no one around me has any yet...

I've been meaning to head to the mall across the street from my office. Just haven't had a chance.

I just saw a Verizon commercial that featured it. It looks so sexy. I can't wait.

I toyed around with it this past Sunday......we are all in for a special treat. The phone is amazing! It's sleek but fits perfectly in hand. The volume/speaker sounded good and the Internet was blazing lay fast. It will be worth the wait!

Just saw a verizon commercial where there is branding on the front, right above the home button. Found it on YouTube

That could be just for the commercial.

Nothing exciting... Although this is the first time Ive ever bought anything without seeing one in person before. Especially for this much dough.

Just branding for the commercial. Ever notice in like... Every credit card commercial ever, they always have the card upside down, so when they swipe it, you can still see the branding? I laugh every time I see that.

Great, now I've got to stop fast forwarding through the commercials just to check this out.

That is not the GSIII. If you pause it at the 0:17 second mark you will see the soft onscreen buttons of the Galaxy Nexus. So this looks like a Nexus and GSIII that made a kid...

I stopped by T-Mobile to take a look at it, that night I pre ordered it

I am currently using the Galaxy Nexus and the S3 has a bigger screen however the phone is practically the same size except slimmer. The screen was much brighter as well. I noticed immediately the delay in the home button but a simple option change will fix that.

I forgot to test it but I hope the keyboard is as good as the stock one on my nexus.

I stopped into my local AT&T store, they didn't have any, but they did have accessories available, and I did manage to snag a samsung official pebble blue flip cover, now to just wait 2 weeks till I can use it.

Saw a T Mobile S III at Costco but they didn't have a demo model. Smaller size wise than expected and very light. They said 7/12 for Verizon and AT&T

Speaking of commercials, the S3 commercial I keep seeing on TV makes the S3 look gigantic like a 7" tablet.

I stopped in T-Mobile and finally saw one in person. Even though I've read a bunch of reviews, I was surprised at how solid the phone really feels. I loved the screen, but I am coming from a Thunderbolt, so of course it would be a huge improvement. I tested out S-voice, and it did everything I asked it to (set an alarm, directions to a neighboring town, and check the weather). The feel of the phone was great; it didn't feel slippery as I was afraid that it might.

The only thing that I didn't like, in my brief experience with the phone, is the metallic bezel around the screen. It was the same purple color as the home button. Is this the way that it is meant to look? I think I could grow accustomed to it, but I do not much care for it now.

Overall, my visit to T-Mo made all the more excited to receive my S3 on Verizon. Here's hoping that I receive it on the 9th, as opposed to it shipping then!
