The plastic may be thin, but it’s incredibly resilient as well. I challenge anyone to try to snap their S3 cover in two. It can’t be done!

I am using a Motorola Razr Maxx running ICS and it is the worst OS I have experienced since the release of Android. My device worked great before ICS update. I not only have terrible battery life with a 3300 MHz battery but it over heats. Signal strength is terrible. I cannot believe they changed the notification of missed calls from red to gray. They made the icon for Exchange emails the same color as the POP email. The notification for Exchange email is the same color as POP email, Gray. Can it get any more boring? It was nice to be able to tell the difference as to what email has mail as well as tell the difference between the icons without having to double check because they look exactly the same. I think the worst part for me though is the fact to place a call sometimes can take over 60 seconds. When I dial a phone number and hit send, it just sits there and will not call out. I have had to power cycle my device once 50 percent of the time and sometime twice before the device will place a call. I have even tried to use voice dialing and I have the same results. This is completely unacceptable. I also cannot go back to my previous OS. I am stuck with ICS no matter how bad it performs or doesn’t perform. Android has taken three steps backswords with ICS. Then Google has the nerve to say, be patient. Motorola wants me to reset my phone back to factory settings and set it all up again. They don’t seem to care that it takes me over six hours to do this because none of my apps are backed up like in iTunes so I have to write down what I have and re download them. I have be anti-Apple but the iPhone 5 4G LTE cannot get here soon enough. Screw Android!

95% of consumers are NOT tired of Motorola. That’s just your own opinion. For the most part , Motorola puts out the best quality Android phones. best quality construction , steel not plastic , best quality sound , best connection and reception. Verizon is still selling the RAZR MAXX at $299 because it is a great product and it is still selling.

Back up your 95% with a link.

I would never buy the Samsung Galaxy S3 because of it’s flimsy plastic. Plastic is okay , but it needs to be of a tough quality. the S3 battery cover is paper thin. Verizon rep tried to sell me one and I told him no way. They may be popular , but they are not for me. And it’s not just the plastic at all. it is the quality of the plastic. I don’t like it.

Not at all, it all actually makes perfect sense to me. It’s the fact that they are no dropping the numbers is what’s confusing ignorant consumers. You can just go into any Best Buy or carrier store and you always here people asking what the difference is between the 4 or the 4S, and the iPad 2 vs the “new” iPad. Guess what fixes the problem, telling the stupid consumer that the new iPad is the iPad 3, and then suddenly they are no longer confused!

I am not a big fan of Quad Core phones. I would much prefer a higher frequency dual with 4G LTE, personally. At least until Android is updated to make full use of all four cores.
