    The Samsung Galaxy SIII was of course expected to be better than the Galaxy SII but is it worth the upgrade? The jury is out.

      Not really in my opinion. I upgraded my S2 to S3 few days ago and I’m about to return it. It’s way too big to use as a phone. Touch sensitive back and menu keys are too close to the edge and… too sensitive, so I keep pressing back with my palm while typing with one hand. It’s impossible to reach entire screen with a thumb without stretching your hand too much and it makes it uncomfortable.

    The S3 is way better. Just cause some people can’t reach the whole screen with only there thumb, they think that makes the S2 better. There are so many things that the S3 can do tgat the 2 can not! For example if you like music you can download whole albums using Utorrent. Onky a laptop, iphone5 or the S3 can do this. Theres much more also. In my opinion, those of you who think the S2 is better, are the people who are stuck with the S2 and simply are just mad cause they don’t have the S3! There is too much to type about hiw much better the S3 is. I have both of them. Trust me…the S2 is nice but it doesn’t even come close to the S3. Stop being jealous people and just go get the S3….in other words STOP HATING
