I am sure some people are if they have not upgraded since

 

But I wouldn't buy one at this moment in time its a waste of money investing in old tech unless you can get a very good price on it

 

Even a cheap phone like the Moto G beats the S3 these days.

I still have one.

Replacing it when it breaks.

Uh...no?

Maybe it doesn't blow it out the water in all areas (CPU lacking a little), but for the price it is quite comparable 

 

It depends what price you can get an S3 for. The Moto G has a high res display better battery life and on bar build quality yet is cheaper (somebody had it in hot deals for $50)

 

The S3 has a slightly faster CPU and a slightly better camera but on amazin it is $300 which seems a lot for an ageing phone

 

I just thing its a lot to spend on something 2 years old

My friend was using one, was still good till he dropped it several times, one too many and it broke, now he "upgraded" to a S2

The displays are similar.Both HD,just that the Samsung uses AMOLED.

Build quality is indeed similar.

The S3 has a bigger screen,which is always better(at least for me).

 

Really,the only thing that draws the line between the two phones is the screen size and the phone design itself.

I've had mine for a couple of years, still is running great!

 

Touchwiz is pretty poopy, so I installed a custom ROM, I recommend you do the same

I just bought an S3 few weeks ago. I'm completely satisfied it, it is my first ever smartphone though so I don't really have anything to compare it to.

[yurihellsing]

Yeah still got one and hopefully some time in November upgrading to a Z2.

S3 is not the right choice. Look for something more current for the price, even if it is not a flagship.

[Stefan007]

Now i really don't know what to buy. In my country s3 is 150$

 

People that don't recommend s3 please tell me why should i not buy it.

Bought an s3 last year, still using it and will use it until it breaks.. Flashed omnirom and rooted it. Awesome phone with these mods to it !!
