Now that the S5's been out for a few weeks, what are your thoughts on upgrading from the S3? Is the S5 my best option, or is there an equal/better option? I'm with Sprint.

Night and day bewteen the S3 and S5 OP - what are you waiting for?
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking now... I was just able to get Sprint to correct my upgrade date - they had me with a June 2015 date for some reason.
Is there a quick way to be sure I've got everything off the S3 and ready to go to the S5? I'm pretty sure all of my Contacts and my Calendar data are tied to Google - is there some way to be sure BEFORE switching phones??
Your contacts and calender (if you use the Google version) will sync back with the new device. I never worry about text messages but ensure the pics stored on the camera (if any) are moved to your SD card, if you're using one.
Can I get the pictures moved without much trouble? Can it be done right on the phone, or do I need to connect to the PC to get that done?

The problem you will run into with Sprint is, you will not be able to talk and surf the web at the same time like you can with the S3. This problem is with Sprint, not the phone, as they are the only carrier to do this.
So, if I don't talk and surf at the same time, I'll be OK as far at using LTE? I'm trying to think of how often I have surfed and talked at the same time...
Is this something Sprint can change if those chose to? (They must be able to, since the S3 can be used simultaneously.) Is it only an issue with the S5? Are other phones (HTC, etc.) able to surf and talk at the same time?
