Just dont understand why youd downgrade to a worse phone
You just opened a can of worms.
-bigger screen
expandable storage
-removable battery
-2 GB of ram
-1.9 mp front camera on the S3 > 1.2 mp front camera on the iPhone 5
-2100 mAh > 1440 mAh
-standard micro usb
-the ability to act as a portable drive
-widgets
-customization
-OPEN SOURCE
iPhone 5 used is worth about $500 right now. He should give you an additional $100-150 cash because the S3 is only worth around $300-350 right now.
Also the value of the S3 is about to drop tremendously over the next few weeks so if you wait it will only be worth $200-250 by the end of April and you could get more cash out of the trade.
do a plus cash... Don't get f-Ed over the bad deal

It's still not an iPhone... So yea DOWNGRADE BOOP...
I too prefer the iPhone over android phones, though nowadays most of my android time is on the note 2. Was just wondering why we think of Samsung whenever considering an android device. HTC just launched the ONE, seemingly to the delight of most Tech reviewers. It looks really nice.
Going from iPhone to a "below average" phone is a huge downgrade:

bigger screen doesnt make it better, its a low ppi pentile display which is much inferior to the retina display in the iPhone 5.
Expandable storage is good, but the phone not being a unibody makes it feel cheap
2 gigabytes of ram doesnt mean much when Android needs more resources to run as efficient as iOS
iphone 5 battery last longer then the S3 battery
lightning cable is better because you can do more with it
widgets are no big deal i never used any widgets when i had my GS3
it being open source also has ill effects, like the 23 apps in the top 500 section in Google Play was considered malware, there is malware everywhere and you need to be safe when on a Android. get a virus protector

Preference, doesn't make it better.-bigger screen
Preference, doesn't make it better.-expandable storage
And yet the iPhone is more fluid and better at maintaining performance.-2GB of ram
This is somewhat true, but could be argued.-1.9 mp front camera on the S3 > 1.2 mp front camera on the iPhone 5
This means absolutely nothing, as iOS and Android handle battery life in a completely different way, also it's very dependent on the things you do with the Phone.-2100 mAh > 1440 mAh
Preference, doesn't make it better.-standard micro usb
What? I don't even...-the ability to act as a portable drive
These 2 are preferences aswell, doesn't make for a better phone.-widgets
-customization
Has nothing to do with the end-user unless you're a developer.-OPEN SOURCE

You might think it's an upgrade, I consider it a downgrade because the Phone doesn't offer me iCloud. I can't break an android phone and download the exact operating system I had back on to a new device without extra services. iOS has this built in, you might not need this.. but it's essential to me. It's all about opinion. He hasn't opened any can of worms, you just think what you want is the mainstream right now and that's supposedly what "everyone wants". It's not.
Dont you think this comes off as a little biased?!
You're trying hard to bash the samsung positives and play down the apple negatives.
Whats the point unless you can be fair?

So my post was biased, and his was not? Also yes my post is biased because I am using the phone that fits MY needs. Therefore this phone is BETTER for me.
So to me that's a downgrade. For him it's not but what counts for him, doesn't apply to all of us.
I hope these are used prices, that you are referring to
