Remember you lose useable screen real estate with ICS. Except when watching full screen video. The GN has a 4.65 screen. But with the onscreen buttons it basically equates to a 4.3" usable screen. I'm not arguing that the SIII will have a gorgeous screen. That is one thing Sammy does well is make awesome displays. My G'Tab 8.9 is stunning. It just isn't a deal breaker for me with a phone. Important yes. The only thing?? No. So much more to consider to have a fully functional and enjoyable device.

Oh and the GN was not a flop. It was an awesome device. Just had crappy reception. If it could hold a signal like a moto device I would have kept it in a second. And I was actually one of the apparent few who had zero issues with the Bionic. Solid device with awesome reception.

I said the bionic was a flop not the nexus. :)

I thought the s3 has capacitive keys and not the on screen keys?

Does it??? You may be right. I haven't familiarized myself with the SIII yet. If that is the case my argument about screen size is moot.

Sorry i was having dinner. I have a droid x and love the phone. I do want it to last a long time since i do not want to have to switch to a tiered plan. Battery life is always an issue, camera, signal.

The battery in the s3 will be roughly 25% bigger than an average smartphone battery. And with the newer technology will be getting better battery life than an older phone already.

@kparks: Since this has been a fun and friendly debate I have a question for ya. If the RAZR HD was available now or confirmed for the very near future with it's rumored specs of....

Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz
Qualcomm Adreno 225 GPU
4.6-inch Super AMOLED HD display 720p
3300 mAh battery
13MP camera
ICS

What would be your recommendation then???

That's like an s3 with better camera but no removable back. Lol
