Anyone still using a Samsung SIII in 2017...

Anyone still using a Samsung SIII in 2017? My S5 broke and I'm getting an SIII from a friend and want to know how it holds up in 2017.

Bump

Just upgraded to the s8 from my s4 literally yesterday

Get a s7 asap

I had the S4. It was about as slow as most sub 50$ prepaid phones and I don't know if mine was a lemon or they are all like that but the screen didn't get very bright for a super amoled.

The lowest I would go is the S5, anything prior is too slow and outdated.

The iPhone SE is cheaper and is equal the S7 on performance benchmarks. The S7 maybe might just be a hair more powerful but not by much at all.

>writes SIII
>also writes S5
Why not SIII & SV or S3 & S5?
Where's the goddamn continuity?
It's a fucking phone, OP. If it calls people and surfs the internet for your shitty apps, it holds up. Are you calculating entry vectors for the Martian atmo? Didn't fucking think so. You're playing flappy bird and temple run. Just fucking get it.

My s3 still good. I just use it to save porn on

just pulled out my old sIII yesterday. turned it on, let it update, and went through old photos. lost 20% of the battery in ten minutes lol. Worked fine other than that though

I had one a few years ago. It was a good phone, especially if you're not paying for it. Just got an s7 upgraded from an s4 I had for 2 years. If you want to just buy one, get an unlocked s7

I do play a lot of games, I'm just afraid it will lag like hell because of it's dated hardware.

If you're in the US, just buy a moto e4 for $40. It's tied to Verizon but if you go to eBay, you can buy an unlock code. Would be much better than a crappy s3

I think a homeless guy i passed was using one

Then grow up and fuck off

Motorola makes the best budget phones. I had a Motorola G4 play brand new on Verizon for 35$ from a dollar store but it got stolen. It was waterproof, had a 5" display, 2 gb of RAM and 16 gb of storage and scratch resistant glass. It also had a pretty good camera which was suprising.

I had a Motorola E 2nd generation about 2 years ago too. Amazing phones. Samsung, LG, ZTE etc make horrible budget devices.

If you are going for something cheap go for a Motorola or a ching chong phone from China. There's a lot of sites where you can find them. Or get a second hand flagship that is fucked up and refurbish it yourself. All you need to do usually is replace the glass, frame and backplate. They will cost all together with tools included, 15$ the most. It's really simple. I popped out a cracked S5 glass in 2 minutes and replaced it for 7$ with tools included. It looked brand new when I was done. I could have sold it for 3x the price what I paid.

yup. i liked my moto g 2nd gen, you could put a microsd in it and it'd extend the storage as one big drive. it was awesome.

still got my old S3, and it works fine. It's a generation or so behind with android, but it still works fine. if your broke, banggood has a bunch of phones on sale for black friday right now, and there is probably others. also, keep an eye on the new moto stuff on amazdong

I don't even have a phone.

get on my level kiddo

Phone was a legend. I ran mine into the ground. Then went to lg g5 and then onto the lg g6.
I bet its not going to hold up or support grindr, faggot

Samsung future proofs their phones. This phone is pretty much identical to the s3. The only main difference is the body and smaller screen.

>Faggot

Okay Chad bro

>Not getting a S4 active

Bump

> not getting a iPhone SE

This thing is more powerful than 94% of phones. Keep in mind the S6 scores 89%.

I'm currently using a s3 and it is cancer

Why? What does it struggle with?

Change the OS. I think LineageOS should work, get rid of TouchWiz asap.
