Q. I love the features of the S3 but I don't like its plastic body. I hope Samsung rectifies this in S4. Any idea when Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S4?
I find the following as major drawbacks of S3 --
1. Plastic body
2. ICS operating system is old now. One has to manually upgrade it to Jelly Bean.
3. Camera isn't as good as that of iPhone 5.
4. It offers 1GB ram while Nexus 4 (much cheaper) offers 2GB ram and comes with almost identical processing power.
So, I hope S4 overcomes the drawbacks mentioned above.
A. The body can be fixed by using a hybrid metal/ Gel case. The nexus is also all plastic! T-mobile and Sprint have upgraded to Jelly bean. Verizon and ATT, by the end of this month. The S3 camera received an excellent update with Jelly Bean, utilizing all of its hardware( I have 4.2 photosphere installed). It may only have 1gb of ram, But the S3 has removable storage; which the Nexus doesn't. I'll gladly take 1GB less ram for the option of 64GB additional storage. The Nexus also doesn't have a removable battery. The Nexus has a sharper image, but the S3 is brighter and has a better contrast ratio. The Nexus also doesn't have LTE, and a lesser front facing camera. Each phone has its faults. Is the S3 case fragile? Yes, but I have it protected in an awesome case! anyways....No update on an S4..
If the case quality is your only problem not look at these two protective steel cases.

Should I get an Iphone 5 or a Samsung Galaxy S3?
Q. i'm a teen, and getting a new phone. I've narrowed it to the iphone 5 and the S3, but they're both awesome. I've had an iphone 4 before, and i'm really bored of it. can't really do much but listen to music, and the apps are boring. My friends have the S3, and they said its really cool. can anyone tell me which is better and why?
A. Normally I'd say iPhone easily, due to the far better UI, App Store etc etc
However, in your case I'm going to have to say the GS3. I know what you mean by being bored. Everyone has an iPhone. People don't come up to you and go 'wow, is that an iPhone! Can I have a go' anymore. I also know what you mean by it being fun to have a change. And for you, the s3 is just that (although unfortunately, the apps are very similar, but worse, than apples). Also, android is far more customisable, so it'll take longer to get bored of the software.
However, I'm now going to suggest something outside the box. The Nexus 4. You've probably heard of it if you're looking into a new phone, but I'll say it anyway, as it was only announced on Monday. This phone will be amazing. It's faster and more powerful than the GS3, better looking (in my opinion) than the GS3, FAR CHEAPER (£239 sim free) than the GS3, and hasn't got the custom UI Samsung use. It has the full on android 4.2, and first place in future updates. This exclusivity is amazing, and, despite being an unmodified version of android, feels like its custom built just for that phone (which in a way it was). It's like having pure gold as opposed to gold plating. It's just that bit more special.
Also, the nexus 4 is brand new on November 13, so you'll be a first in the queue buyer, rather than a crowd follower.
Help me to choose which phone I must get ?
Q. What phone should I get Google Nexus 4, OR Samsung Galaxy SIII ? and why ?????
A. I know if someone want to buy a high end smart phone, so there are a lot of questions in his/her mind.
There is going to be a huge war between these two smartphones you have mentioned above. First of all i want to tell you that Nexus 4 is superb in terms of hardware than SGS3 and it will get fast update from google as the google brand is attached with it.
Let me tell the in depth comparison between these two high end smartphone
1. Processor :- Though the both the device has a quad core processor but GN4 has some better clock speed with Snapdragon S4 Pro chipset. so here GN4 is the winner
2. RAM :- All version of GN4 comes with 2 GB RAM where as in case of SGS3 only LTE version comes with 2 GB RAM. Again GN4 is the winner
3. UI :- GN4 released with Android 4.2 jelly bean and ll get quick updates from google as I told you earlier than any other android device. and Google has released the Nexus 4 is vanilla, believe me much more improved version than Touch wiz. Again GN4 is the winner
4. Display :- Both have approximately the same screen size. While GN4 uses the IPS LCD at the same time SGS3 uses Super AMOLED but Nexus 4 has a slightly higher resolution. Though GN4 has a slightly higher resolution but both displays have great color reproduction and good viewing angles, in some ways SGS3 has better sunlight legibility. So here there is no clear winner.
5. Storage :- GN4 comes with in build 8gb or 16 gb memory. Yo can't expand but in case of SGS3 it comes with 16/32 Gb memory and you have also an option to expand the memory upto 64 GB. So here the winner is SGS3
6. Camera :- Camera interface of SGS3 is great and a good image output than GN4. also SGS3 has a good 1.9MP front cam. So winner is SGS3
Over all I want to tell you that my recommend is to go for GN4.
hope this review ll help you in taking your decision. For any other query you can contact me any time.
Happy Buying
