nexus $50 is it worth it over s3?

[Crankintopwater69]

Haha not much man. How you enjoying your s3? I had one for about a week, but ended up returning it.

It's really nice.TW has some nice features.I'm really loving being able to play video on home screen while surfin the net.Dont like the folders with the TW,wished they wouldve used the Nexus folders.

How do you do this? I just got a SGS3 today. I enjoyed the Nexus, but being I don't root or rom it felt like it was missing something. Once I got the ota Jellybean update it was a damn nice phone though, but so far I like the S3 better. I happen to like the UI on the S3....

Don't get me wrong, great phone and I see why it sells like hot cakes, but for me it was all about the dev community with the Nexus. For me, it was a little too big. It was a nice and snappy phone with a great big beautiful screen, but for me it was excessive. Nexus is the perfect size and I can't imagine how big the Note 2 is going to be.

Good little test run for about a week, but happier with my Nexus.

+1 on the big beautiful screen,and we're happy you @ least gave it a test run.Note 2,now that's excessive.

I totally agree about the size being too large. The nexus was the best decision I've ever made in regards to cell phones. And after the 4.1 update, IMO its just as fast as any of the other phones out there with day to day use. 50 bucks is a bargain! Go eat some jelly beans dude

even if you not rooted though you can still do ALOT with nexus ive never rooted yet plus no bloatware

[NOVICE]

Been through Droid1, Droid X, Galaxy Nexus, and-now- GS lll. Don't root, flash, etc., and never took advantage of the real potential of Nexus. But was always disappointed in the Nexus radios and lack of internet speed.
Updates, including JellyBean, never added significant improvements in my experience.
Accepting that I never tapped full potential of Nexus, I still must say that GS lll is far and away the best phone I've ever had. Speed, screen size, radios--couldn't be happier.

Same here,never rooted my Nexus,just was dissappointed in radios.Loved the pure experience.Love my 4'8"SAHD screen,1.5 SDragon,and TouchWiz has some nice features to.

Well I just forund out that early upgraders have to pay $150 for the nexus with a $50 rebate. Gotta talk to me rep tomorrow to see if they can lower it to $50 but if they can't then which is the better option?
Also are the radios improving on the nexus?
