Intuitive, stylish and simple to use, the Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone delivers a personalized, seamless mobile experience that helps your day run smoothly—whether it's time for work, family or play.

  • newegg Share Back-to-Back If sharing is your thing, the Samsung Galaxy S III is your phone. With S Beam, you can share large HD files in seconds – just touch compatible devices back-to-back. S Beam takes full advantage of NFC (Near-Field Communication) and Wi-Fi Direct technology, making it quick and easy for you to share photos, videos, documents, calendars, contacts and more. And you don’t even need Wi-Fi or a cellular signal.
  • newegg Share Big As much as you like a crowd huddled around admiring your new phone, it won’t be necessary with AllShare Play. Because now, you can play your music, videos and slide shows on any compatible HDTV or computer for all to see. Go big.
  • newegg Share Photos Instantly Share Shot lets you share your photos with up to five friends – as you take them. What does this mean? You don’t have to remember to share later; just share on the spot and forget it. Sharing has never been so much fun, so fast or so hassle-free.
  • newegg Gesture Smarter The Galaxy S III goes beyond swiping and pinching. Special motion gestures let you do things easier and more intuitively than ever before. For example, to capture a screen shot, just swipe your hand across the screen. To get to the top of a list, just tap the top of your phone. Or if your texting someone and want to call them, just put the phone to your ear. It doesn’t get any smarter than that.
  • newegg Speak, and the Galaxy S III will Listen S Voice responds to your every voice command, acting as your on-board personal assistant to give you helpful, accurate information, dial phone numbers, send messages, open apps and more. It will follow your commands and answer your questions quickly and intelligently. You can tell your phone to wake you up, take a photo, answer a call, send a text message or play your favorite song. In fact, thanks to S Voice, you might never talk to real people again.
  • newegg Simplify any Task Samsung TecTiles is the short-hand way to operate your Galaxy S III. Just program your “tiles” to automatically handle repetitive actions, like changing settings or performing certain tasks. After that, all you’ll need is a simple tap of your phone. It can launch apps, connect you to Facebook or Twitter or share a contact with any NFC-enabled phone.

Please read the product description carefully for all unlocked cell phones.

Some unlocked cell phones sold by Newegg may have previously been locked to a specific carrier. A carrier-locked cell phone may often have carrier-specific applications and branding. Some of these applications cannot be unlocked and/or may not function with a different carrier. Also, applications requiring a data plan may result in data usage charges from the original carrier.

In addition, the cell phone box may arrive unsealed and the cell phone may appear previously handled. The unlocking procedure requires unsealing the box and manually handling the cell phone. In this case, the cell phone should not be considered "tampered with" or "defective".

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Phone

5 out of 5 eggsFlawless Phone

Pros: The phone is great. Everything is as described.

I encountered a problem with the sim card. There was actually no problem with the sim card. I was just simply did not know you had to press down the sim card until you heard a clicking sound. I actually sent the item in for RMA because i did not know this. I am embarassed. Just realized my mistake through a youtube video on how to properly install sim card.

Overall great phone. I'm a very satisfied customer

Cons: None. seriously, i'm not lazy to write anything about this phone. The phone is as described. Only problem may be that it's 500 dollars but the performance is what you're paying for. Maybe the battery life may be an issue, but that is something you must consider when buying 2100 mah.

No problems with phone

2 out of 5 eggsAlmost great......

Pros: Different from iOS, being able to design homescreens to your liking, very thin and sleak

Cons: The keyboard definitely takes some getting used to, autocorrect doesn't seem to work as well as it did on my iphone although maybe I just need to use it more.

BY FAR the biggest con though was it is impossible to view your pictures in thumbnail mode (or preview pane) while the galaxys3 is connected via USB. I was on the phone with 3 different technicians and they all told me the only option was to drag and drop every picture to your desktop, and then delete the ones you don't want. This may seem like a silly issue but honestly this is almost enough to make me return this. There is no simple way to open up your phone and just pull 3 pictures off of it unless they were literally the last 3 pictures you took. My RAZR from 2002 could do this...why can't my galaxyS3 from 2012??????

Other Thoughts: Honestly, no thumbnails for pictures on your device make drag and drop such a chore. Unless Samsung rolls out a patch soon, I will be selling this phone. Almost everything else is great (except the battery life)

5 out of 5 eggsSimply Great

Pros: I haven't had much time on the version of android that it comes with, but i got Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and it is smooth as can be, the quad core really is crazy fast. You don't feel limited at all with the 1 gig of ram, it is really more then enough.

Cons: This phone can't use 4g, only gets 3g on ATT and 2g on T-Mobile. Feels like it takes hours upon hours to charge on my PC.

1 out of 5 eggs

Pros: big screen, great for video.

Cons: The phone is great but the sim care slot is stuck.

Other Thoughts: I recently bought a unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3. The first one that came in have problems with the sim card slot. The sim card could not slide in so I requested a replacement. I received the replacement cell phone yesterday but I found out that the cell phone box is punched in and is not sealed and looks like it has been opened. I called the customer service to request another replacement again. That means I have to wait for another week or more to get the new phone. I am really disappointed about this purchase. The phone supposed to be my friend's birthday present. He was excited when he receive it but unfortunately it didn't work and even the replacement is not brand new. It had been almost a month since I bought the phone which also mean that it already past my friend's birthday.

Pros: Are you sure about model number i9300?
It is not a BlackBerry!

5 out of 5 eggsPlease review before you buy

Pros: Beautiful thin phone.
Well made.
Fast.
Smooth OS.
Truer black than anything I've seen yet.
Links to my Samsung TV.

Cons: None so far...

Other Thoughts: For all the people who gave low egg numbers because they did not do their due diligence.
If you buy a phone without even looking at bandwidth T-Mobile currently supports in your area and the listed bandwidth phone supports, your Tech Knowledge is low.

Does this mean it does not work for T-Mobile? Not necessarily. T-Mobile received influx of money from the failed merger by AT&T, plus they now have access to use some of the AT&T bandwidth.
What this means is T-Mobile is slowly upgrading their towers to support these new bandwidth and you will be able to use this phone on T-Mobile data. Main reason for this is to court all the out of contract unlocked iPhones to their service (millions currently on T-Mobiles right now), and all the other unlocked phones just get lucky because of this. I was informed that this was done in certain areas already like Las Vegas, so people who uses these phones in Las Vegas should (please check before buying) be able to use this phone there.

4 out of 5 eggsINTERNATIONAL MODEL. Misleading title

Pros: It's an S3.

Cons: NOT the North American version.

Because Newegg lists the International version of the S3 as a separate product, I assumed (wrongly) that this one would be the North American version. It is not. Due to this, I can only get GPRS speeds on T-Mobile, as well as the phone only having 1gb of ram.

Other Thoughts: I haven't decided yet if I'll even try to get Newegg to accept an exchange. I'm not sure if they would, but I feel they're partially at fault for not specifying that this is the International version.

1 out of 5 eggsNo 4G for T-mobile user

Pros: Would be the 1 of the best phones of the year, if i can have my 4 G network.

Cons: As a t-mobile user, i can only have Edge network, 600 dollers wasted.
