The editors didn't like
Poor call quality
Poor build quality
Screen is useless in sunlight
Battery charges slowly
Home button is awkward to press
TouchWiz deviates too far from ICS “Holo Theme”
No 4G or DC-HSPA+
Bland design
Auto-brightness is too jumpy
And low
What we like
Battery life S Voice still useless Subjective design
The Galaxy S3's screen is too dim
And Samsung's Siri competitor
S Voice
Disappointed us. You can only roam at 3G speeds outside of U.S. Cellular's home network
Disappointed. Until Sprint's LTE launch
Data speeds drag on the carrier's 3G network
Mediocre battery life
Can't edit home screen dock
Subjective design
S Voice not optimised
Disappointed us
And Samsung's S Voice Siri competitor disappointed
4G heavily impacts battery life. No HDMI port
No HDMI port. Photo quality is a small step back from the GS2
