    Wink Got the S3 in my mitt!

    Couldn't wait for the blue handset, so got one of the three white ones that 3 had today. Guess I was a very lucky boy because this is an incredible phone. Yes I've gone from S to S3 so always gonna be a huge step up, but wife has S2 and it's way better than even that.

    Still messing about with it but if you have any doubts, forget them - just get one.

    That's just a load of blather but will post later with something tangible once I've picked my jaw up. Awesome bit of kit and on 3's £34 all you can eat data plan, a proper bargain.

    Does the white look ok compared to blue? Wondering if it might make people look at me funny

    Had a v quick play with a white one today in P4U.

    Zohan silky smooth, looks and feels quality, don't understand the reviews saying it's cheap-feeling.

    At the moment still holding out for the newly-invented colour...
    I could be wrong, I usually am. (Because it's only a phone)

    I know exactly what you mean. If it's any comfort, none of the lads at work have tried to touch me in an odd way. Yet.

    Would've preferred the blue that doesn't exist in nature, but actually, the white's absolutely fine and looks properly smart. That's the trouble though isn't it? It looks like you're trying to be a fashionista when you've only bought the thing because it's the best there is - and it's the only colour available. In any event, I'll be buying a flip-case, so what the hell.

    Agree with Stonkr, it's not cheap feeling at all, but this is entirely subjective. It's maybes the best excuse Samsung/Droid detractors have for such a sweetly made handset. Whatever, grab one for yourself - you'll see.

    The camera is truly superb although there are loads of reviews from proper critics/experts that you should read before taking my word for it. The entire shooting match is incredible and it lashes internet pages down at amazing speed.

    My biggest complaint is this - it doesn't resize pages into readable columns after zooming in on text. Even my old SGS did/does this and it's really annoying cos you either put up with tiny print or, zoom in and have to swipe laterally across the page to read. Big mistake this that I'm sure will be put right in next f/w release.

    Other than that, it's a crackin phone so just get one - regardless of colour. Unless you're a bloke with a white one, in which case, either look menacing or get a flip-case. Either way, enjoy.

    Cheers
