Okay.. but Samsung shouldn’t design their flagship phone to a very small subset of its users who use custom ROMs.

Yep, I’ve been screaming the same thing for a while. If it’s going to be a flash/cloud only phone, at least give a 32GB option.

No, it’s because on most custom roms, they’re fully customization (size, color, shortcut to apps, re-arrange, etc.). I was against on-screen buttons until I used them.

Not a huge fan of the physical home button, but I love the S3 itself. But there are software options like LMT launcher that allow you to add a soft home button to every screen.

Either the Moto X-Phone or Samsung GS4 but I require 32GB of internal storage + microSD slot so no BS about 16GB+16GB microSD being 32GB, that is the base for me, then we top on to that all of the current stuff we have 1080p, 2GB RAM, 4.2.1, etc.

Maybe, if they keep growing. Here’s an early prototype of the Galaxy V:

So does that mean 4 people have to carry a tablet or iPad?

I don’t hate it. The fact of the matter is, the Galaxy S3 is the first Android phone I’ve seen that is reaching average-user adoption similar to the iPhone. Not in numbers, but in the fact that it’s becoming the most popular single Android phone. Many average users may not like having no physical buttons. If you remember, Samsung had a prototype GS3 with no home button, but their market testing must’ve shown people prefer it.

Agreed. High on-board memory is so unnecessary. Stick 8GB internal and put an SD card slot on there. I just bought a 32GB MicroSD card for $15 on sale. I’m a bit annoyed Google is dropping support for external memory.

Agreed. I don’t understand the obsession with the on-screen buttons. Is it because Google says it’s great?

The physical home button is my favorite feature of the phone!
