I use the keyboard all the time. My thumbs are not meant to text on screens like everyone does now…I love the keyboard, and love the phone!

I’d definitely go for that. Yes, it would be big. I’m fine with that.

I’m fine with the thin but I agree, less bezel would be cooler.

The S3 isn’t a phablet. Its literally the exact same size as the Galaxy Nexus. But this phone is ugly

Verizon has to make its end, so add on $2-300 mark up on top of that, so probably 600

Not trying to advocate Samsung, but they probably started to develop this phone before JB was released.

The S3 is a phablet to me. Making it thicker isn’t go do much.

I never understood the whole thin hype. I would have preferred a thin bezel hype instead.

The D4 has a much better keyboard than the original Stratosphere, and the S2 keyboard doesn’t look like it’s changed much. On the other hand, the Stratosphere has a better screen than the D4.

In both cases, it’s worth going to the store, trying out the keyboards, and looking at the screens to decide for yourself which is more important.

GS 3 is pretty wide for a phone, really it’s the largest non phablet phone out there. Making the phone .45″ thick(which is thinner than the LG Mach which was the thinnest keyboard phone i found) and if the phone was that thick and as wide as it is, I think it’d be huge.

This thing should launch free on a two year contract

No interest in this, but I gotta ask why on earth is a new phone being released with ICS? Jelly Bean has been out for months!
