"Except for S-voice, I would give it a 5 Star rating."
4.0 starson by Mortimer_SnurdPros: Display is fine, just adjust it and give up on that editor's comment. I clocked the 4G at 22.2 Megs download and 5 Megs upload out in Brentwood (94513). Jellybean loaded about 2 hours into the activation and I am looking forward to 4.1.2!
Cons: S-voice is hopelessly bad right now and it is almost futile to try to make voice command calls, especially for names that are short. Don't invest in additional blue-tooth devices, it is the software.
Summary: I love the phone, having replaced a Droid X that was a replacement phone that had a bad microphone and was skittish on a couple of apps that caused numerous reboots (Skype, blue version and Backatude). On the S3 I have no problems with the Skype app, clear video and sound on calls as far away as Sweden. I haven't installed the other as Latitude really isn't very stable anyway.
