It does. But I'm currently using the s2x which doesn't. I always find myself pressing the side button to check for messages and such since I keep notifications on silent.

sorry for a noob question, Does anyone know if Rogers wireless will carry this phone? or is it for companies like Bell?

Its weird how simple features like that are so important, even more important than camera quality

All the major carriers will probably carry some form of it.

Various Canadian carriers announce plans to release the Samsung Galaxy S III | MobileSyrup.com

Basically every carrier, except for fido/koodo, are getting it. Also for the big 3 it would most likely be a dual core version, not the quad core, because of LTE. Hopefully one of them will get a version that looks like the international version, since the american versions tend to look worse.

Hey, interesting read:

if the S3 we get is not Quad Core.... does it mean it will be quite a bit slower (phone newb).... should i just get the Note then ?

jeff19 05-10-2012 12:59 PM

It could be the exonys 5 a15 dual core (2ghz) which would be comparable if not better than quadcore.

http://www.gsmarena.com/possible_4g_...-news-4230.php

If so, it'll have the next-gen Mali T604 GPU, 5 times the performance of the mali400 which is already really good imo

I'd take that over the Exynos 4 any day lol

I checked into Gyoza King the 2nd time lol

Does anyone know if I could buy this unlocked directly from Best Buy?

I got a gift card a couple months ago and was hoping I could buy it straight up without a plan, since I still have a 2 year contract with Fido.

and any speculation on the cost?

the ones from Bestbuy are most likely carrier locked since they are only selling the big3 stuff... and like most of their phones, are carrier locked

but it looks like there's some kind of screen protector on it to diffuse the lights. Probably an anti-glare one
