Just seen a nexus v s3 v s2 side by side pic on gsmarena and looks like s3 is a tad longer. Asus phone looks alright..being Asus the insides should be good! Rough release date dags??

Legacy Donating Member 2,852 Member For: 18y 7m 20d Gender: Male Location: Vic Somewhere - Sometimes NSW Posted 11/06/12 12:44 PM Author Posted 11/06/12 12:44 PM (edited) * We are doing the SGS3's outright for around $770 +/- aussie stock, straight from the distys... Next shipment is due in around 2 weeks, and expect a price drop...* Asus v SGS3 - dont rely on just specs like Quad Core 1.4 v 1.5 they are not a direct 1:1 - its like looking back on the days of My AMD beats your Intel cos the number is higher... Sorry... BULLsh*t! Show me 3-5 REAL performance tests in the real world and they will show what product is best... Remember it depends on the requirements, and to be honest, I'm tempted to head back to my SG2... Specs on Tech products are just the same as specs on our cars guys... throw the beast down the 1/4 mile! * 16GB, 32GB, 64GB - just get a 64GB SD Card and ull be fine! Are u really going to be transferring that much crap to the handset, when you can in effect hotswap, and use the card in and out of a PC... save the money and just get a 16GB... The 64GB hasn't been confirmed for the Aust Market yet (if at all)... 32Gb is still a few weeks away also...* 4G - ha ha ha ha FORGET IT.... its unlikely to be here (if at all) for 6 months from what im hearing at this stage (telstra excluded, but its only in a few pockets anyways)... If your on Optus, there is no 4G network (except that little crap network they bought from 7 holdings a few months back, only in Newcastle)... Telstra are still useless at best - and Voda... no comment... By the time 4G is sorted in Oz, or LTE (I suspect Optus may just go straight to this and skip the standard 4G Network)... a new handset will be out - perhaps the SGS4... (If your like me and get a new phone every 6-12 months, just grab whatever u want NOW)...* Custom roms - try Lightning Rom, or CygenRoms... They seem to be reasonable, however some do have glitches, and remember its up to u, I hold no responsibility for a dead/bricked handset at the end of it, if you screw it up! * Asus = Foxconn phone.. same as half the rest of the market... lol - Samsung = Samsung... Go HTC is you dont like the Samsung... maybe even Motorola, worth a look... imo... Asus for notebooks and other IT products (sell more than any other NB... but handsets... hhhhmmm next!)

Any decent guide you followed on the net you know of? Also, what's your pick then with the s3 v Asus?
