Samsung Galaxy S® III Cell Phone - from AT&T

doesn't say that you have to be on a plan with att..also release date is earlier on June 18.

I've gotten phones from Bellingham BestBuy before. But as always they probably won't sell it to you outright when it first comes out.

Also I'm pretty sure we'll be getting the the Pebble Blue as well. Samsung Canada was demo-ing both the blue and white S III's to Future Shop.

Myself and others have been turned down before in the past and Simplex123 says he was able to so it's probably YMMV just like it is here. But obviously they're going to want to sell to to existing customers first since it's way more beneficial to them.

Guess that other video I linked musta had bad lighting or something to make it look gray.

anybody know if i pickup a S3 in korea, would it work with any of the carriers here?

nvm, w-cdma 2100 only

Can you download movies (torrent and the like) from android phones and play them right off it without any type of conversion?

^ yup
download a good player (I use BS Player personally) and you can read pretty much any file format.
So far I've done MKV, MP4, MOV, AVI, pretty much anything i threw at it and it's been good

Galaxy Nexus by the way

MXPlayer can play pretty much anything you throw at it, and it's free as well. Subtitles and everything. I think Samsung's stock video player plays everything as well, less extra functions

^one of the reasons i would buy this phone is for the pop-up play feature but since it only works on the default video player then it's kinda useless.

hopefully ppl hack it to make it work with youtube/netflix/etc.?

even mkv?

+1 for MXPlayer. I haven't tried it on MKV yet but it is supported.

^ Does MX Player do fullscreen on Galaxy Nexus? (ie: takes away the nav bar automatically)

yup

Yup. It dissapears after a few seconds.

One thing I don't get though.. How come their variants of the Note/S3 have the same specs as the international version yet still be able to handle LTE? Is their LTE different than ours?

Read the article. Extra LTE chip, 0.4mm thicker than the regular S3.

Me after reading the article: :okay:

gotta sat the s3 is pretty sweet, lovin mine

Nevermind. It is a Exynos 4412. The international version is 4212.

Ordered another s3 in blue, it looks so good in person, wow

uh huh.. the more I look at it the better it looks.. I'd be so tempted to get it when it hits stores here but I just got a Note recently.. :megusta:

WTF? Their tap to top is actually a PHYSICAL tap not a tap on the notification bar

so many silly things you could do with this phone, I love it.
