Any found a decent case for this phone yet? I'm looking towards getting Incipio Samsung Galaxy S III feather SHINE Hard Shell Case, Samsung Galaxy S III Cases & Covers

Just wondering, will rogers give me a free micro-sim like how they give it out for free when purchasing iphones?

i've been using that case for a while now on my s3 it's not too bad. but it doesn't cover the phone on the top or the bottom so you can still scratch it easily. probably better off getting something that wraps around the phone completely and not just the 2 side.

as for micro-sim whatever store you pick it up at should give you one free of charge.. but if you are just walking in with a s3 purchased elsewhere doubt they'll give you one for free.

so the lte is dual core and non lte is quad core?

i'm with rogers on contract atm, anyone know if it's possible to phone up bell and agree to sign a 3 year if they can offer better plans?

my contract is almost up, been stuck with a shitty 500mb plan for 3 years.

also, does anyone have the data speed on wind with this phone?

I don't think most people are getting the S3 because it's thin though but because it's a good phone. I think some may even think it's too thin but in the end they just want to protect their investment. I on the other hand fucking hate cases. Only screen protector for me please.

How do you guys feel about the camera compared to the iPhone 4s? I've been doing side by side comparisons and sadly I'm a little disappointed. It seems really hard for the S3 to take good pictures without digging into the settings and changing scene/lightings

The LTE version also loses out on the Wolfson Audio Amp for you audiophiles out there.

Directly link from rfd, so apparently rogers is having a glitch in the sg3 when you checked out. $359 for a 16gb, not sure if they are going honor it but its worth the try.

They're not gonna honour it obviously. They'll just refund all the cards due to pricing error. Some ppl on RFD are getting their cards refunded already.
