You already said this a few pages ago. Any reason you're repeating yourself? We get it, you're proud of macrumors![]()
Funny considering that 90 percent of this thread - if not more are the same posts over and over.

Oh for goodness' sakes. The reviews say that the phone itself doesn't feel big, and I believe it from experience.
It's barely bigger than my Galaxy Nexus, which fits just fine in my hand and any pocket.

Well sure but you just seem like you're sucking up to the editors or something. You literally said the exact same thing a few pages ago. How this was put here for hits and how you commend the editors. Just an observation![]()
The iPhone is a toy phone with a itsy-bitsy display that people who work in Coffee Shops love because they can take Instagram pictures of their food and Starbuck's cups and think that they are so creative.
Lol.
Galaxy SIII > Toy iPhone with 2009 design and tech
Lol.
So Samsung have copied Siri, iCloud, iTunes Match, and AirPlay. They copy everything, just like Borat's neighbour:
Really? That's what you're culling from my 2nd post in this thread. Just the sarcastic/snarky comment towards the editors? Not sucking up. I'm being cynical/jaded. Maybe that didn't come through?
In any event - read the rest of my 2nd post. That was really the "point" of my post.

By that logic (meaning none)
the GSIII is for people who laugh at their own jokes because they think they are 'that' clever & funny - even when a tumbleweed is rolling right past them.....
Android had had Voice recognition for years, Cloud computing was being done in 2004, Airplay, again, Android had had for years.
Apple copy and rebrand to Barristas. Others innovate.
SIII > iPhone
Lol
Answer me this, have you ever taken an Instagram picture of a Coffee cup?
The "S" stands for "Sincerest form of flattery."
Please.. let's not lower ourselves to fanboi level..
Yikes. Coming from an iPhone user, the amount of insecurity here is ridiculous. Believe it or not, some people want some different.
Why are so many people buying Samsung phones ... I mean it's designed in Korea ... how uncool is that compared to being designed in California ...

That dwarfs the iPhone in every stretch of the imagination in terms of size. That's crazy big.
Ok ok geez, why are you getting so defensive. I was just making an observation. You said it once, no one cares, then you repeat the exact same thing again like you're looking for validation or something. Let's just drop it.
Okay, I know this might be difficult for some of you on this thread...but imagine if the iPhone4S was made by Samsung and the Galaxy SIII was made by Apple. I'd bet the majority of posts here would be how awesome the new phone is. Plus all the "copying" issues would be brushed aside as just Apple being competitive and/or improving upon the iPhone.![]()
You've been saying the same thing over and over again on this thread too... like how S Voice is a blatant copy of Siri. Just sayin'
Relax buddy. You're the one that made this an "issue" not me. Apparently just ignoring what you considered a duplicate post was too hard. It's cool. We can both move on![]()
I think it goes both ways. I think some pro-Android posters here do take it too far, but to be fair, a lot of the anti-Samsung, anti-Galaxy arguments on this thread are either exaggerated, untrue, or just straw man arguments. I think posts like that cause other people to want to post their side's argument even more.
It seems like most people care only about winning the argument no matter what means and what evidence they have. Unfortunately, nobody gets paid to do so (except perhaps the MacRumors staff, which probably posts these things in anticipation of these "debates" that will generate hits)
But seriously, sometimes I think a debate on religion or on politics might be more civil and logical than the Mac vs PC or iOS vs Android arguments here.... and that's saying a lot!!![]()
Ok if you like this sort of thing. A big flashy feature set driven product.
Yes I'm biased as its not from apple and I admit my judgement may be clouded so take this for what it's worth.
But would Jonny Ive have produced this??
Less is more. And this is a perfect example, to me anyway, of this.
But hey it is what it is.
I love when people make statements like this. "i bet if Apple made this ugly abomination of a phone, everyone would like it!" What's the point of this? Apple would never, in a million years, make a phone this ugly. You know it and i know it. But i guess making up the silly hypotheticals is the only way to somehow come to grips with how horrible this phone looks!
Don't forget, if jonny Ive produced this, all Apple users would love it!
