Very disappointed about the S3

[Tufftoad]

I thought the Desire HD was just a little too big for the hand and the SGS3 seems to be bigger, although the S3 is only 1.1cm taller than the SGS2.

Still waiting till I can hold one in my hand see and feel the phone.

I like the fact that it's big personally. I want something with a larger screen than my S1, though at the same time not as big as the Galaxy Tab :P

After calling into my local Carphone Warehouse to physically handle the S3 I came away very disappointed. Compared to the S2 it just feels cheap and "plasticy".
The back of the phone looks awful, sorry but I won't be getting one and will stick with the "superior build feeling" S2. The S2 just comes across as a more solidly made phone.

I think the reason for the 'cheap plasticy' back is for one of the reasons in this video. Each to their own though. I'm also thinking of px'ing my SGS1 and updating that to the SGS2...best of both

WOOHOO! Have mine now, queued for 7 hours and was first in NZ to get my hands on one! Lots more to follow, loading it up with stuff now...

Like the S2 does the S3 have Gorilla Glass?

[Tufftoad]

Gorilla Glass 2, same durability but 20% thinner

Don't think it has the waterproof nano technology around the innards though.

Apologies for the deviation but does the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 also have Gorilla Glass?

Thanks
