Samsung I9305 Galaxy S III - User Reviews

  • with your hand!

  • Yes it does

  • How can I activate 4G on my I9305 ?Thanks

  • Yes it does.

  • question - does this phone work with home internet wifi? tia

  • what are you saying dude hahha

  • My phone can't mobile network , I sim put but can't network.

  • how did you do that?

  • The s3 mobile phone is the oldest phone.but it works fantabulous and extra otdinary. but only one dis advantage it has no dual sim.plz buy this it is cheap and best .my opinion is s3 .what is yours.

  • How do you do that

  • I also had the no-WiFi problem when I tried to re-activate my old I9305. The problem was solved after I updated the phone with the newest software. I had to use Smart Switch from my computer to update, but then it worked flawlessly. Over the air update crashed and did not work.

  • You must hard reset the phone. I had the same problem when i had this phone and it helped. Search google for "Samsung Galaxy S3 hard reset".

  • Android 4.4 update

  • One of the best sets made by Samsung.

  • I became samsung fans when I am using this phone since 3+ years ago but the problem that I am facing right now in this phone is it always restart by itself and I can't power on the phone.So,this phone can't go to home screen and i can't use this phone for now......

  • Anyone received a recent update regarding "improved stability" for the Samsung S3 GT-I9305?

  • You can actually, root and download custom rom. My galaxy s3 is running android 7.1

  • i have a s3 still working fine got the phone in 2012 had the charge port fixed the batt the first one good for 45 min full charge they say after 2 years the batt gos on it, i have now 3 more batt as my back up and new charge cords . this phone works as good as the day i got it. my s3 has out lived all my freinds phones and all my past phones of all makes,its still the best and it works .the phone companys whant s you to do up grades all the time , to save money get the chargeing port fix and extra batt, pluss new cords . my phone is up and runing since 2012 and now its 2017 cheers from mike

  • I bought Galaxy SIII in 2014.It worked well till last month. Physically no problem but, it's display doesn't work regularly. sometimes it works and another it doesn't. Repairer says that it's display is out and have to change. If so, how can it work at times? Could you say any solution for me?

  • My favourite cellphone. This is 3,5 years by me.

  • You can't, its too old:DDDD)))))

  • its software is crached, get a new software from the phone repairer ,

  • I have an issue with Sim Card slot I tried to check for the IMEI: It is saying NULL what should I do?

  • I want a upgrade to marshmellow.

  • Just replaced this with a Huawei p9 lite for my 12 year old and retiring the S3. Can't believe it's only 3 years plus since I'd this Samsung flagship phone. Everyone loved a Samsung then especially us anti-iphoners. Not today though. All the other more affordable brands have caught up and know what consumers want. Affordable and powerful enough. Personally I think Samsung has somewhat lost its plot. With the disaster of Note 7 it will be doubly hard to win back its supporters.

  • There is no crack on my touchscreen but there is no light on display

  • How did you rooted your samsung I9305 s3 dude?thx

  • This one is my first smartphone. I'm really happy about my experience.

  • Meet this guy corn android upgrades... Google it..

  • Yeah, that's because the device itself does not change. The device gets relatively worse, when new flagships are released, but absolutely, it still stays the same 2012 superiour flagship. It is so hard to believe, how much different the assortments of phones in the technical stores changes over the years! The S3 was considered as a superphone in early 2012. It is late 2016 now (wasn't it January yesterday? Time goes past so quickly! (alternative:)Time goes by so fast!). Now, the S3 is considered as garbage. But it is still the same device!

  • I really miss those times! That user interface (TouchWiz NatureUX 1.0) was really beautiful. And pebble blue looked so good. At that time, Samsung concentrated more on practicallity. Due to the more minimalistic design, unfortionately, they have removed the neck strap hole. But I do not like those newer user interfaces of Samsung. On the Note 6, I like the quick settings, but the user interface is so monotone, while the Note 2 had a living, vivid user interface, which was probably the childhood of TouchWiz. Now, there is puberty. I can't stress, how much I was shocked, when I heard Hyun Yeul Lee on Unpacked 2015, Episode 1, 17~18 Minutes after event start. I watched that unpacking video eight months after release, and Hyun Yeul Liar confirmed, what I actually noticed in a negative way: Icons replaced with text: what if the language settings are messed up? The icons in context menus were already removed in NatureUX 3.0 on the S5, which at least had a dark nativve theme (#00151c, #006578). But in Saturn, a technical store, somebody set the menu language of the Lumia 1020, where there is just text, no Icons at all, to russian. It was impossible to navigate through the menus. Read this, Hyun Yeul Liar: Unpacked: „We did refuse to do this (non-removable) battery for some times, until we were absolutely sure, that it would be convinient for users to charge their batteries“? Is it convinient to worry about space storage, battery capacity, water damage, missing features, etc. ? The S5 had a bulky charging port. But I wish, that the charging port itself was protected from inside, but that bulk was still there, which means twice the protection. That bulk prevents any water from entering the charging port (if it does, there is additional protection). That makes it possible to use a cable-charger without drying out for hours. But for that,, there is wireless charging. I can't believe, that the S5 Mini and the S6Active have no humidity (water short circuiting) protector. The multitasking was introduced on the S3, and at it's best on the Note 4, but messed up on the S6. AndroidPit mentioned positively, that the Note 4 allows the camera application to be opened in pop-up-view. Actually, the Note 3 still allowed the Clock application from The S3 has a lockscreen-camera-launcher in the following picture: 【I am currently unable to find that picture, but I will reply to this comment as soon as I found it.】 I wonder, why some S3's don't have that. But I wish, that I could set some emergency applications to be accessible without logging into the device. E.g. Calculator, Flashlight, Clock tools, unit converter, camera, voice recorder, etc. they do not contain any private information.

  • check more information about ur device

  • but how to upgrade my friend????

  • To root, use Odin to flash custom recovery. When done, terminate reboot process by removing the battery. Boot to new recovery using hard buttons & flash SuperSU. When done, boot phone & check for root status with app. Before trying other ROM, check if GPS works. If not, enter Service Mode to reset GPS (only Samsung ROM got Service Mode). If all ok, try cm13 by p.a.n (aka Android 6/Marshmallow), all sensors working & stable

  • Sometimes when phones are outdated the new software comes with bugs made to slow down the phone and encourage you to get a new phone. Or your software updates are good and your software\hardware can't keep up with the phone.So it's either the manufacturer or your phone.

  • Follow this guide and easily install official 4.4.4 Kit Kat for the S3 i9305. Worked fine for me, although with Kit Kat you can't use file manager apps to write to the external SD card thanks to Google. The processes uses Odin which is official/leaked Samsung flashing software so it's fully safe.

  • I bought this phone two days ago,i used xperia z before it.my so called water resist lost it's face after a glass of water being fell on it unintentionally.all the flaps and indicators said that it didnt drink water,but the service guys refused to admit it in there hospital.then sold it with almost one fifth of its money,i have to admit,sony just washes our eyes with features like bravia engine,xloud,water resistance etc,but actually sony is a bullsh*t.the sgs3 lte runs a little slower then xz,as it uses an old chipset,but believe me sgs3 is way better in the features,camera everything.i just love the vivid Super AMOLED display!

  • i have using that phone i thing its nice phone ans camera quality is also good but one thing is bad its ram 1 gb but internal memory is good 16gb and evry thing is ravas

  • Samsung i9305 is very good mobile.no stuck no problem.only running....

  • Please software update in 5.0 lollipop

  • I got 4.4.4 IT's may pretty but not have visual changes.

  • Still not get kitkat update

  • Samsung 9305 is better or s4mini 9195

  • I have love hate relationship with this device from the day I bought it. Everything was OK and very good except the battery; very fast draining even when screen is off or when I sleep. Later I replace with higher capacitor battery from Sunglobal (3000maH as claimed),still cannot settle the issue. Battery will drain from full to 0% in less than 4 hour. At my office my phone always have to plug to charger atleast twice or thrice. I have switch off all unnnecessary item like NFC, smart stay etc and off the data from time to time and manage to get almost 5 hours. Im not a rich person, maybe I made wrong choice with this device over s4 mini. now Im looking for new phone (maybe samsung a5/a7 or sony or maybe lenovo). The thing I really love with samsung is S Memo, really useful with my work and I cant find it with other Android device. I have tried Sony Xperia Notes & sketch with Xperia M, still cannot beat S Memo from Samsung.

After three days my SD card stopped working. I tried with different device (laptop) didn't work there too. I see some comments on the net about 4.4.4 doing this.

  • GOOD MY mobile Samsung I9305 Galaxy S III Version 4.4.4

  • Antutu Gave me 249xx :D

  • 4.4.4 just came available in Finland. Battery life improved considerably from 4.3. In the night it used to eat most of the battery. Now only a few percent. It was OTA update so all the apps remained intact without factory reset or reinstalling apps from Google Play or Kies3.

  • Is battery life in 4.4.4 as good as in 4.12?

  • do not update, it is just time wasting, no difference in the benchmark test, both androids got almost 23000, it is better if you move to cyanogenmode 10.1.3 stable, much better battery life and camera in comparison with the official android, faster, you will lose only smart stay property and automatic call recoding software will not be more compatible.

  • it is good camera only in a good light, otherwise you will have a bad quality photo.

  • Can i buy galaxy s3 9305 phone is that gud or bad phone plz tell me

  • Brother , There is no option for downloading firmware,,, Please help... Regards Waqar Ahmed

  • I installed a Lollipop rom last week (AOSP...) and the phone runs smoothly. Gmail app is connected to Gmail & exchange, news apps, facebook (takes a lot of memory), navigation,. gDrive etc... I hope Samsung will issue an upgrade to Lollipop for it. Last two years proved they should invest in their consumers (software upgrade) rather than issuing tens of models which makes people confused and turn to competitors. They should also check out latest IOS, it has both Tasks and memo sync with exchange via ActiveSync ... .

  • From Slovenia the greatest country in da world :) !!!! I've updated my Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9305 on 25.09 2014 when Kitkat 4.4.4. was released through German provider via Wifi, but I downloaded it from www.sammobile.com and updated it with Odin v3.09 as it is suggested on sammobile site. Since then it works 100% perfect, no bugs, no glitches no nothing. I have Zerolemon 7000 mAh custom battery for 6 months now. With Jellybean 4.3 my phone lasted 4 days and 17 hours of my usage, now with Kitkat 4.4.4. it lasts a whole day longer, so 5 days and 15 hours and my battery still had 14 % of juice left (wifi on, bluetooth on, screen rotation on, brightness to max, power saving off 24 hours a day). Speed of the phone is approximately 1-2 seconds faster when switching through options, menus, gallery. Camera also works perfect as it did before in JellyBean. And yes it's international so all the languages, keyboards and settings are integrated in it. All in all with 4.4.4. it's a speed update and battery update for the phone as they promised with a few minor extra options in settings. But beware if you have any other version of S3 than GT-i9305, this update will NOT WORK and you'll damage your phone !!!!

  • How is the kk update, battery life like 4.12? Everything else ok? Camera and video recording still as good? Safe to update this time? Love to hear from you lucky people who have update how it's going and thanks for your help.

  • I didn't got the android 4.4 in Pakistan :(

  • Very good phone but the battery is draining very fast

  • Finally i updated kitkat manually by odin ita running too smoothly and battery is decreasing linearly.

  • I have s3 lte with 4.1.2 i m from india when i try to update it shows me processing failed error please help me i am eager to update kitkat ?

  • after updating and testing kk my final opinion is that they made a great job with this release. the battery drains very liniar and lasts much longer. i can go 2 days with medium usage. it runs smoother and finaly waking up the phone does not take forever :) i strongly recommend it.

  • No wireless problem with Nordic Country rom. Try a restart...i dont have another ideea..

  • The new update of Germany has a unstable wifi connection. When phone sleeps, the phone automatically disconnects from the wifi network even if i choose not to sleep the wifi in the settings.. Any one experiencing the same problem ???

  • actually have version 4.3 PDA:MKC /phone:MK& /CSC:Mk1(XEF) this informations comes from Kies 3. I see no update.. My phone is not rooted... Can I use Odin to update my fone ? regards

  • actually have version 4.3 PDA:MKC /phone:MK& /CSC:Mk1(XEF) this informations comes from Kies 3. I see no update.. My phone is not rooted... Can I use Odin to update my fone ? regards

  • From Slovenia owning a GT-i9305 on JellyBean 4.3 till 4 days ago. I downloaded 4.4.4 for Germany firmware from Sammobile and istalled it exactly the way Sammobile suggests with Odin 3.09. After whole installation (tok me 3-5 min, because size of OS is 1.6 gigs) phone rebooted and it came on to the new 4.4.4. (no more green battery on top, but in silver color) with all the settings and installed programs i had in 4.3. It was a speed bump i must say. But I did Factory Reset and I got an aditional speed bump prior to the first speed bump when I went from 4.3 to 4.4.4. Its international, so the only difference is that, when you do Factory Reset, the first default language is German and you just choose your language, afterall, they are all there because its international version. For 4 days now works like a charm :). I think my phone got roughly 5-10 % longer battery authonomy and 10-15 % speed in everyday usage, mostly in responsivnes of the OS.

  • Hi I already updated my I9305 to kitkat 4.4.4 it's very smooth and the battery life is good. But the only issue is the unfortunately google play movies and tv stopped. Why is it their's always poping out like that? What do I need to do?

  • i have the i9305 and updated to 4.4.4 OTA 2 days ago. you need to have the german region firmware to get the update for now. other regions will update soo. you can download it and update manually if you want ­

  • Yes and 4.4.4 is the most stable kk versions no bugs battery time normal all security fixes non other Samsung phone has got it so the s3 4g owner should feel happy:-) regardsp

  • Hope all u guys gonna get kk cause the 4.4.4 update is the best of all kk versions . No bugs normal battery life all fix all security fixes :-)

  • I want to buy this phone Samsung Galaxy SIII Verizon 4g(LTE) Will it be up gradable to 4.4.2 in india?

  • Hope you are right!

  • You should try to root your phone and install Cyanogen (or another custom ROM) on it. Google stock Kitkat is much better than Samsung's TouchWiz UI, and it increases battery life.

  • Samsung France confirms KitKat update for the Galaxy S III LTE Hi everyone! I have nice news today! Today I talked with a samsung agent from Samsung France with live chat! I asked him about KitKat update for the Galaxy S3 4G GT-I9305! He said currenlty Samsung is developping the firmware for The S III 4G and It will be announced when It s done! But unfortuently he doesnt know when it will be availble to download because Samsung has plenty of phones ! So Surely Samsung will update the S III 4G to KitKat

  • This i9305 is an outstanding phone but never upgrade it to 4.3. I got one two months ago. It was working like charm till I upgraded it to 4.3. After that it was really a pain. Then I decided to root the phone and try a JB 4.3 custom ROM. I tried different ROMs for a week I was not satisfied with any of them. Finally I tried rXTREME JB 4.3 and it fixed almost all issues in this phone. But you need to be careful about the configuration selection in AROMA installer. The configuration that worked 1. Samsung stock 2. Agni kernel. Try it at : . Initially I had heat issues when I was in 3G / 4G, even that got fixed. Its great going. Best of luck. Again its one of the best phone - provided you are running the right software

  • Can u please tell me where u buy extent battery? and which one is good for i9300?

  • I've been using s3 4g for a year now. The only negative side i've found was the battery life, which is pretty obvious on any smartassphone. So i bought an extended battery, sacrificing the slim look, but it was totally worth it and now it's easier to hold with one hand. It is my first smartphone and for the price (400e) i was expecting more, but so far works great without issues with 4.3 jellyb. So if you are not looking for the top of the line toy, you cant go wrong with it.

  • hi guys i often see on my screen your device is rooted what does it mean?? and my battery timing is not that great please help me with it...

  • This is great. I have one. :)

  • Hi Guys!!!! I just updated my Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305 LTE to ANDROID 4.3 a week before. I got the device from France and got an update last week. To be frank,the UI has been completely changed like S4's UI. Battery drain is not that much as many say in their review,but i do accept that little bit battery consumption has been increased. But inturn you get New UI, New notification bar,Enhanced graphics. My Quadrant also got increased after updating. !!!!! Now my device is even liquid smooth than before. Ram usage is somewhat higher.Even in idle state it takes around 1 to 1.25 GB of RAM memory. Overall i am very much satisfied. One thing many reviewers forgot is , u get expandable notifications, which u get in 4.3 and not in 4.1. Now i doubt whether i have s4 in my hands!!! I thank samsung for this beautiful update but i should have been a little quicker.

  • it would be good if it has radio

  • very true optimus G i bought mine on sale fot only 265 brand new. the exact about i made for a heavily used s3 (replaced screen and dented edges and screen cracked at edges). It lags sometimes for no reason (ram is still very much available and im not doing anything that takes up mich of the processor) and it can get hot if you are using wifi/data and are say llayong a game or watching a video but, other than those once a while problems i'd say go for the optimua G

  • the durability of this phone sucks because mine cracked on the center top and bottom edges. it is in a cell phone case.

  • The quality of this phone sucks. Mine has a crack on top and bottom center edges.

  • Wow... This phone is the best I had and with 2GB ram it is far more better than the normal galaxy sIII. I got a one made by SAMSUNG and my battery remains 1 and 1/2 days after heavy use of internet wi-fy and playing some games about 30 minutes.I think when you charge the phone you have to switch it on and charge 100% for me it will take 2.5 Hrs. Gaming and web browsing of this phone is super fast and recommend this amazing device to any web surfing lover. Thanks SAMSUNG.

  • hi friends i will buy samsung s3 4g how is this pls reply

  • hi friends i will buy samsung s3 4g how is this

  • Is Lte available in india

  • Comparing a Galaxy with Grand is like comparing a Toyota to a Mercedez. Both are good but Some are more good. So to answer your question - The galaxy S3 comes with an Amoled display with a Gorilla glass screen. Sadly both are absent in the Grand. Grand consumes more battery since it has a TFT capacitative screen. The CPU is smaller which leads to slower speeds. The pxel density is 187 ppi which is half of what the S3 has which makes the Grand screen look washed. On the plus size the grand has a large screen, decent processing power and should be way cheaper as well. So go for the Grand if you have a tight budget. Go for the S3 if you can afford it.. I promise you wont regret it. I have been using it since Feb 2013 and I have not had any hassles.

  • hi guys,does anyone know if s3 i9305 has 32GB storage or it,s available in only 16GB storage?

  • No doubt ..lte good

  • also know as T-I9305, T-I9305N, T-I9305T

  • hi friends iam buying for s3 please suggestion phone & battery

  • There are different USB chargers. The Note 2 uses a 2AMP charger, while the iPhone 3 series uses 1AMP for example. A larger charger will NOT damage your phone. But a smaller one will charge it much slower. Hope that helps.

  • hai .. samsung gal=3 or grand is best.. how many hours stand up battery for galy 3... wihile in use.. did samsu gal3 have same feature of grand

  • found cure for 3.5 hour charging problem! followed someone's suggest ion and tried another charger (actually my previous phone Samsung wave 2's) and now takes just under 2 hours, fantastic. obviously something wrong with out of box charger, which others have also mentioned on forums. Thanks everyone for your help, service now resumed on this amazing phone!!

  • In common. Touch screen trouble like crazy open different app with our touched is charge with not original charger. Just use original charger its ok

  • Its normal. But if you want to make short the charge time, you can use charger 2A like galaxy s4. Only 1 hour 30 minute charge time to full.

  • When its charging go to settings > battery and make sure it says charging (ac) and not charging (usb). I had a similar problem when I was using the default charger & cable but added a extension lead causing the power supplied to the phone to drop.

  • hi guys, my s3 has just started taking 3.5 hours to charge(previously was ok), im using the charger that came with it (bought phone 2 months ago) why all of a sudden its taking so long? do I need to reset something? phone itself is just the best ever - any advice to sort this long charging business?

  • I happen to be from those countries where you say you don't ship the phones bought from this site. What if am ready to meet all shipping expenses, cant I have the phone sent to me?

  • I'm using this phone for the last 6 months, giving 10+ hrs battery life with 100% wifi/LTE mode, super fast, no lag, never give a force close message, no need for additional memory optimizes and clear memory task (i came from note n7000 and s3 9300)thanks to huge 2 GB memory. "it is fragile like all S3, i did the glass replacement twice :)" all usb host/otg functions are perfect with more external device support that includes my usb audio card and headphones. giving 9 out of 10 (1 point less because it loves to kiss ground and that making scars all over the body and occasionally the glass screen - most fragile phone i ever used in my life ) but still loving it .

  • im from sri lanka.i brought Samsung I9305 Galaxy S III from china.it is hong kong vershan.but i haven't 3g signals.only can use 2g signals.what is the problemand what can i do????? plz help me......

  • s3 lte is the best phone ever. dont complain about the battery because it has 2gb ram, it can run lot of applicatios at the same time which will cause your battery to drain faster and its normal. it happens to all of the phone. s3 lte is 4g and has 2gb ram which is very good for an affordable price. i own 1 and felt satiafied since day 1.

  • One of the most difference is i9305 have 2G of RAM & 4G even in 3G it's much faster than i9300 becausr it supports 42 HSDPA+

  • you should off all the key tones, lock/ unlock sound it will save Battery life 40% better. give feed back at [email protected]

  • I think sony ZR is better than d samsung s3

  • I currently have this phone since 2 months. Well, when it came out, i wanted it so much, and now... want to sell it as fast as i can, to get a good price for it. Camera is absolutely fine. But, the systems 'Touchwiz' always stops working, i mean, force closes, restarts, crashes... I do not want to root it, or put another frimware on it or anything like that... . The battery is much better than Galaxy S2's. So, if i have to rate this phone, i'd give 5,5 out of 10. I don't say, you should not try it, as i just shared a few of my experiences from this phone to you. Thanks for reading these lines, hope it helped to you. :-)

  • sony ZR is not better then s3 LTE becose the ZR is not LTE Samsung I9305 Galaxy S III.... is better phone at 2014

  • Planning on getting the galaxy s3 and with wat I have read the phone pretty cool

  • Battery life is 40% better after I turned off keytones, touch sounds, screen lock sound and haptic feedback..

  • Xperia ZR is better .Only advantage of S3 is bigger screen.

  • here is the differende...and i must "tel" you your english isnt "gud"

  • Waiting for the 4.2.2 update. Now it's 4.1.2 on my SIII. Country Bangladesh. Can anybody tell me when will get ota update on my phone.

  • S3 or XZR which one better

  • This phone is too fragile. I accidentally dropped it twice in about 3 months interval and the scream just go blank with ink like substance spread all over the phone screen. I think it's. too fragile

  • When will this phone get update on android 4.2.2 ???

  • it is dual sim supportable ??

  • Dont listen to negative reviews..this phone is aweome.

  • Awesom phone..

  • Because of LTE, I radher have LTE then useless FM radio ;-)

  • No fm radio. Big fail.

  • how can upgrade OS 4.1 jelly bean in samsung galaxy s3 if is possible in s3?

  • Why my battery is all draining for the screen ?

  • My friend if want a good and reliable smartphone then buy Samsung galaxy s3 . Minis are just known for name while their functions are quite different than original ones, the same thing in minis is only operating system nothing else.

  • both are the same except I9305 has an LTE coonnection while I9300 doesnt. also I9305 is tiny lighter. there's few more insignificant differences

  • I9305 has 4G, 2Gb of RAM and no FM Radio. Also, battery life is worse on I9305.

  • 2Gb of ram, i9300 has 1gb

  • the i9305 has 2gb ram and i9300only has one gig

  • the difference is 5... :)

  • Can some tel me whether s3 is gud or s4 mini is gud

  • I think its the OS. one is newer (4.1.1 Jellybean) the other is old, i think (4.0 Icecream sandwich)

  • can anybody tell me the difference between Galaxy S3 I9305 and I9300...........

  • I'd say I9305 galaxy siii because it has an HD screen and a faster processor, it is also a bit cheaper than the mini s4.

  • is dis gud handset for browsing and gaming including heavy games and wht bout da performance of it does it lag most of the time or gets heat up from da back or something else

  • yup ... your right

  • Can any1 tell me which is better the s3 i9305,s4 mini or galaxy win thanks in advance

  • for enlightenment Galaxy s3 i9305 is called an international model with 4G-LTE with 2gb Ram as a same of galaxy s3 i9300 no 4G-LTE. But it also international model. then the dual core galaxy s3 is defferent because it is AT&t phone and use for the U.S. bound only and not for sale to the other country it means is not international model. Only i9300 and i9305 has declared an international model mobile phone for the Samsung Galaxy S3 unit.

  • I Have samsung GT I9305. But not yet get 4.2.2. :(

  • It depends on how much do you want/can spend!

  • Hi. The s3 LTE is available in Manila. Bought mine at a reputable online store for php 18,600 within this month, come with warranty. I believe this LTE version are not being sold or carreid by our networks, thats why i bought it elsewhere.

  • It's available here in manila, not from the networks though. Bought mine this month from a reputable online store, costs Php18,600 for the LTE with warranty. Just saying.

  • After doing months of research and zeroing down on Galaxy SIII i9300, I want to buy it but the shop person told me that Samsung has stopped producing this model and offered me the newer LTE i9305 model. Since it was expensive then i9300, I was not convinced, but anyways bought the black one. It's been more than a week now and I must say this phone is simply gorgeous. You would instantly fall in love with the butter smooth screen. The 4.8" display is just Superb due to Super AMOLED technology. 2 GB RAM is also one of the best part. There is so much to say, but you will find all technical details here on gsmarena website. The stock earphones are of good quality and sound quality from phone is brilliant. There are people who compares the pric

And i bought the titanium gray version,its simply beautiful to me and the 2Gb ram is very enough, screen is pretty impressive too. I am writing this comment from my phone. Thank you

  • This phone will NOT work with networks using frequences of 1700 (AWS). So Tmobile in the US and Wind (and a few smaller players) in Canada cannot be used. If you want more compatibility then I9300, and it even has a FM radio that the 9305 doesnt have

  • For me, Galaxy S3. If you want a stock android experience and to receive immediately the latest android update, go to Nexus 4. Then if you want a touchwiz experience with some Samsung preloaded apps + expandable storage and user replaceable battery, LTE.. go to SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 I9305 :)

  • Galaxy S III have port HDMI or not?

  • galaxy s3

  • which set is better: GALAXY S3 I9305 or NEXUS 4 ? please suggest me.

  • It may be your sd card...try taking it out and put another sd card..i guess you using sandisk...right...ooh try a class 10 sd card...

  • i9305 definitely. you will regret buying the i9300 because it only has 1gb of ram . Especially knowing touchwiz has a ton of bloatware and will eat up your ram quickly. The remaining ram you will get will only be 100-200 so it will likely lag alot. With the 2gb ram operation of the phone will be smooth with little or no lag at all.

  • for you, which is better to buy, samsung galaxy s iii i9300 int'l or samsung galaxy s iii i9305 lte version? :) i9300 - fm radio/1gb ram/ics i9305 - lte/2gb ram/jb thanks!

  • On any phone that you activate 4G will get a big battery drain (is normal), as for no FM radio, if you get a smartphone then use all his features (use internet radio more station). All in all is a nice terminal and the 2 GB are the way to go, if you want many apps and features open, after you get some of the S4 apps ported you will see the need for the 2GB. S4 Uses 1.36 GB of ram on stock activated feature so... 2GB better that 1GB and FM Radio.

  • When you use 4g it drains more batt., and also I9305 don't have radio. XD

  • ah...my mother bought it for me when she goes to korea.I live in Indonesia though.I believe my mother bought it in Olleh store somewhere in Seoul.Maybe the technician forgot to open the videocall system.It keep saying im in international roaming area.

  • I9305 is available in most of the shops which sells mobile without bills and imported versions. I got one from Karol Bagh, New Delhi.

  • on the i9300 it was with only the 16gb version, and was solved with update 4.1.2 by Samsung. Samsung also admitted problem and replaced phones. Search up in gsm arenas desktop site to confirm if you like. And for a link i posted about this....then please go to i9300 Page and search up sudden death. There u will find a link i posted about this, and info about the 4.1.2 update and fixes and improvements in that update.

  • Yes, you can turn the LTE feature off (but it's not needed anyway - if there's no LTE then it wont try to connect to it...)

  • What else are the differences of this phone and the gt i9300 version aside from the extra gb of ram and 4g LTE? also which phone do you guys prefer? the main thing that concerns me is the battery life. Is the battery life the same as the original s3?

  • Hi Danielli, May i know where you bought i9305 model s3 phone?? Please tell the shop name and address if possible.I mean atleast in india where u bought

  • Yes you can, just like for example wifi :)

  • guys, i am about to buy samsung galaxy sIII, But i still doubt because of sudden death issue, is this LTE version free from those sudden death syndrome? Any experience? Thanks in advance

  • good phone

  • i'm planning on buying this phone over the original because of the additional RAM and not because of LTE. that's because, unfortunately, our place does not have LTE coverage. can you turn LTE off? i heard it drains the battery really fast if it's continuously searching for a signal. by the way, im new to smart phones so excuse me if ever my question seems stupid :)

  • I had the same problem, i tried a blackberry charger and problem solved

  • The backlight on my phone comes on and off when in idle mood and this drains the battery very fast. I have turned off the wifi and bluethooth but it still continues. Please help

  • Yes got one and its upgradable to 4.1.2 JB

  • Excellent phone, except that I started having problems with charging my phone. It would charge overnight, but still be on 23% battery power the next morning. Then it would charge again without any problem. Now lately, it doesn't charge at all. I've purchased a new charger which works fine on any other phone, but my phone still doesn't charge. Even with the charger connected, it says "connect to charger". Has anyone else experienced this problem? My phone is only about 3 months old.

  • Need help.guys i have i9305(shve210k) from ollleh korea.it have 32g/2gb ram.everything comes perfect except when using videocall.the message mentioning "cannot use vidcall in internatinal raoming area"keep popping. so i must use skype.any solution for this problem?thanks before.

  • Great Phone and even Faster than SIII..

I(f yes, then what's the name of 3rd-party that apps?

  • My experience is very good. Is very fast and comfortable to handle. Great camera even in low light conditions. May be the interface to place a call is a little difficult to understand but, once you get use to it is no problem. My bro has the I9300 and I can say there is a difference regards speed. Also, the HD screen looks awesome. Worth the money...

  • but you can carry extra battery, coz it's removable

  • I would not recomend it, yf you don't want to carry the charger wih you. The battery don't last more than 3 hours if you don't keep it in the pocket

  • go for xperia s or xperia sl.the xperia sl has quad core 1.7 GHZ processor and both these phones r waterproof.u will regret buying an s3.my dad has one and it is horrible.

  • if u want a great smartphone,go for sony xperia z or htc one or htc one x +.plus the sony xperia z is waterproof which means it can survive when immersed in one metre water and for 30 minutes.and it is shatter proof means it wont break when it has fallen down from one metre.this is what make sony xperia smartphones unique

  • S3 is more user-friendly that iphone brand. Samsung can connect to any other brand of phone while iphone is locked to apple brand only. :( And SAMSUNG is Cheaper. :D

  • Hi, I think Galaxy SIII is more better than Iphone5, because Android has many application that you can use for free plus bigger screen and almost you can do anything you want on this phone. Iphone is a bit blocked for itself, i mean you cannot manage that phone as you want like on any android phone. I hope it helped to you.

  • there is FM..

  • The Samsung Galaxy S3 has a gorgeous 4.8-inch 720p resolution display, a deliciously slim and light casing and a super-powered quad-core engine. It's the Ferrari of the Android circuit so it's very expensive, and Samsung's TouchWiz software isn't always as slick as it could be.

  • It's a very large phone. Does everything you'd expect from a smart phone. Would recommend getting the mini.

  • This IS an awesome smartphone. I am using the i747 series. Touchwiz is def focused on user experiences, but lacks a little in newer design. Sleek design, don't like the plastic feel. I am a little biased towards durability vs weight. Open easy platform for us android developers.Overall 5 out ta 5 stars.Buy this phone!

  • looking mindblowsing its good creation

  • I have Samsung S3 4g LTE (GT-I9305) the mobile is itself great. as compare to speed this Samsung phone have to comparison. You download as much as you want to Movies, apps, songs whatever, Speed or navigation will not be compromise for sure, i am running a lot of games like GTA Vice City(abt 1.5 gb+-), Asphalt (1gb+-), Need for speed etc. all works well. If your app hangs up but your phone won't. Price bit high but speed and feature are not compromise. If comparison with I-Phone5 this is choice to consider. i got both but i like this 1.

  • You should have set all that up when you first got the S3.

  • Great smartphone, but sadly, a little out-dated now though. Should have its performance boosted once 4G arrives on the scene so, don't let my comments deter you from purchasing this smartphone.

  • Who told you LET version doesn't have Quad core? LTE version has Quad core. I have LTE version i9305 Galaxy S3. By the way, could anyone please let me know how can I get 50GB Dropbox space? I created and logged on to Dropbox from my mobile but I got 2GB space. :(

If u buy Xperia TX-u have to carry a spare battery also together with the mobile,U can't use 4G network and the processor have only dual core. If u Buy the S3 I9305 LTE-U will get 2100 mah Battery, and it supports 4G conncection. Its processor is Quad core also. Very Fast for using the internet connection. If u compare with Camera- Maybe Xperia is good. Now u r the one to decide, I prefer Samsing Galaxy S3 I9305 LTE.Model No: is important for purchase S3 LTE. NB: S3 I9300 have no LTE-Please Takecare,whenever u purchase.

  • which is better..? xperia TX or Samsung Galaxy sIII..?

  • 2 GB Ram is low for YOU??

  • Low RAM memory. Sluggish in opening apps a sbasic as contacts and messages. Very disappointing for a phone with so much hype.

Good touch experience. a bit too wide for singlr hand operation.
