It's being announced next week, don't know when it'll actually release. Chances are international customers will get it before the US market does. Not positive on that though.

[COLOR=#red]One thing I wanted to mention was how amazingly fast the Google GPS Navigation acquires a satellite lock on the S3. You put in an address and it almost instantaneously shows the route with the familiar blue line. I am talking less than 3 seconds fast. With my GNote it could take up to 10-15 seconds which isn't really all that bad, but the longest I ever had to wait with the SGSIII was around 4-5 seconds and that was a rare occasion. I guess the 2GB of RAM helps out with that because both my Note and the S3 have LTE. This is good news since Samsung was notorious for having messed up GPS.
Those with the One X and EVO 4G LTE, how has the GPS Nav been working for you? I would assume it's just as good.[/COLOR]

I'm interested in what the iPhone 5 will be like myself.. I'll mostly give the s3 to my lady and get the note or 5.
But I'm loving the PARANOIDANDROID rom for the s3 the hybridness is too sick

[COLOR=#red]Trust and believe that if the iPhone 5 is released with LTE, Apple will make it seem like they invented it But best believe whatever the iPhone 5 is, it will sell like hotcakes. [/COLOR]

If the Maxx never cameout Apple would talk about LTE has finally been done right. I do wonder how the Verizon version will perform though, with their Android devices having issues with 3g to 4g handoffs everyonce in a while ( I will say the Razr I rarely saw it happen)

Pretty much. Apple fanboys will be in the streets saying how revolutionary the 5 will be with its 4+ inch screen and LTE **** outta here. I'm using an iphone now but i'm no fanboy. Waiting to see what the Note II will have before i decide on what to get.

[h2]Is the GT-I9260 Really the Next Nexus From Google and Samsung?[/h2]
by: Kellex | posted 08.21.12 | News, Rumors
The spreadsheet you are looking at popped up over at SamMobile last night, leading everyone to believe that Google and Samsung have already created the next “Nexus” device with model number GT-I9260. As you may recall, the original Galaxy Nexus (GSM) was GT-I9250, so I9260 does seems like a logical number to follow it up with. After that though, we have a bunch of questions that we’ll toss out at you to hopefully help us all understand this situation.
First, let’s talk about specs. As you can see, it’s a minor bump from the current G-Nex. The jump to 1.5GHz over 1.2GHz is pretty minimal and probably unnoticeable to anyone who were to use it. The rear camera is bumped to 8MP, the front to 1.9MP, and a microSD card slot could accompany it.
Now, onto the first set of questions. Since when does Google allow microSD slots in Nexus devices? It didn’t in the Nexus S and publicly announced why they chose not to use one in the Galaxy Nexus. We know that people like expandable storage, but is Google really going to give in on something they seem to stand firmly behind? Hell, even the Nexus 7 doesn’t have expandable storage.
Next, about those screen specs. First, the original Galaxy Nexus was not just a “Super AMOLED,” it was an “HD Super AMOLED.” So to see what everyone is claiming to be some official leaked spec sheet get that wrong, but also call it a “Super AMOLED HD” for the Galaxy S3 and new Nexus, leaves me a bit skeptical. The official term is “HD Super AMOLED” with “HD” at the front. If they are trying to say that this will be a “Plus” version, we’d welcome it, but again, this just doesn’t seem to match up. Moving on…
Let’s say that they choose to make a new Nexus that is nothing more than a minor spec bump. Remember that they essentially did this with the Nexus S. The Nexus S was by no means a game-changer when it was released. It sported an older Hummingbird processor, a dated 5MP camera, WVGA display, and no expandable storage. The only real new features for the device were its contoured display, NFC chip, and Gingerbread (Android 2.3). So it certainly is possible that Google and Samsung could release a slightly better version of the Galaxy Nexus.
If they do, what does that mean for the multi-Nexus program that was rumored, months ago? All I can say is that the multi-Nexus program better still be happening. While I love me some Galaxy Nexus, I’d be disappointed to see Samsung produce the third Nexus phone in a row that was nothing more than a slight bump over the previous year’s model. Give me choices, give me a beast Nexus.
Or has Google decided to move out of the high-end phone market and instead release a phone that could be considered “mid-range” that can be sold at a ridiculously low price? With the Nexus 7 taking over the low-range tablet market, what if Google wants to try to do the same with the phone market? We all know that they would prefer to sell unlocked phones directly through their own store at reasonable prices – slightly bumping specs on a phone from a year ago is a way to continue to do that.
Your thoughts?

Honestly, that doesn't sound bad at all if the OS continues to be optimized for the hardware and significant strides are made battery wise.

Basically. The Nexus gets a '4s' "update"

[COLOR=#red]As long as it keeps the Pure Google experience and be the first with the latest version of Android then it will not matter much. Improved and optimized software is the new spec-whoring. That's what Project Butter is all about. You should read up on it.[/COLOR]

I've been eligible for an upgrade for a few months now, waiting for the info as well. I'll probably get that or the S3. Wish The Note was option for me.

HTC Is dropping a note competitor, and really if you went this long if the iPhone doesnt fit your need id wait to see if another nexus is dropping, but hell by then the Galaxy s4 rumors will start to crank.

[COLOR=#red]Video about Project Butter. The video is filmed at 120 FPS and it shows how Project Butter code makes a GNEX with a 1.2GHZ processor and 1GB of RAM run smoother than the SGSIII which has superior hardware. It's all about the optimization. The video shows a ICS GNEX on the left and a JellyBean GNEX on the right. Mind you this is super slow motion.[/COLOR]
