Restored Samsung SCH-I535 Galaxy S III 16GB Black Smartphone Verizon Wireless (Refurbished)

This phone has been a life and time saver for me. I am not only able to keep in touch with family and friends by phone and text, but have found the convience of several apps which help me to check email, keep appointments and important dates, and watch live weather, which is very important when living in an area than often gets severe weather. Being a grandmother, I love the camera and being able to store the pictures on the phone. The quality of the pictures is fantastic! Because the pictures are on my phone I no longer need to carry a mini photo album in my purse! The phone is the perfect size, large enough to read email, view pictures, and websites, but small enough to fit in my pocket or purse. I love this phone and recommend it to anyone.

I just can't believe how easy this phone is to learn to use, how easy it is to use, and how neat the features of this phone are. I love that I can just raise the phone to my ear and it answers the phone, no button pushing!!! I also took a bunch of pictures just to try it out, and they all turned out perfect, great clear pictures. I also like how I can link all my apps to this device and view my email, facebook, and everything else no matter where I am. I feared that a phone like this was going to be hard to learn to use, but with all the support both online and through this website, learning to use this phone was very easy. I also bought a book, I no longer need a separate device to read a book, I can do it right on my phone. The speaker quality is unbelievable. People can hear me easily and hearing others is easy and clear as well. Being able to speak to send a text is another added bonus. Also having the ability to hear my messages is great too. The large size is also great as it makes searching easier and items and words are easy to see with the large screen size. I really love this phone and would highly recommend it to all my friends and family.

The no lag on the camera is AMAZING and the picture taking WHILE recording vid is mind blowing for me. The screen may not be as fantastic as made out to be but its pretty good when it comes to videos. Without a doubt this phone exceeded my expectations. The camera is great, the speed and flow of EVERYTHING! You may pay a little extra than any other phone but its worth it! I cannot picture having a different phone except the Galaxy S4!!! Buy it and love it..bottom line.

i really love my samsung gs3, it is fun, has lots of power and speed, things that used to be impossible with my droid 3 are now a snap with the samsung. I wish it was a little more "Sturdy" seems kinda fragile right out of the box, but a good hybrid phone case fixes that.

This is a great device. Super smooth & elegant. This is my first upgrade in 3 years and S3 made my choice easier. Wife has iPhone 4s and I played a lot with that. But to me the 4s doesn't even come close to S3 in many aspects. Once you get used to S3, all other phone devices feel tiny. Now let's get to the meat of the phone: Great display. Always liked Samsung displays. May be I'm biased. Had a Razr for 3 years. Navigating through the pages/apps is smooth. Even if you press/click an app by mistake, it won't bring up the app. Especially if you have butter fingers. Adding and deleting shortcuts/apps is very easy. Press the app for few seconds and you have the option to drag to the delete box. Installing & Unistalling the apps is even more easier. Just go to the Settings>Application Manager and uninstall the app or force stop. The other great feature is the Task Manager(make sure you create a short cut on your home page so you don't have press the home button all the time). You can stop the applications to clear up some RAM. Check what programs are running and close them etc etc. Navigation is awesome. The 8MP cam and the video are amazing. Now I use Skype from my mobile and it's perfect. Battery is a different matter. It drains pretty quickly if you are not mindful of the apps, specially the sync services. At home before going to sleep I switch off my wi-fi, stop all the sync services and when i check the battery in the morning it's down by 5-6 %. Not a big deal but if you keep wi-fi on and the sync services it will go down by another 5-6%. But I'm not too impressed with the built in ringtone choice. Most of them are very melodious and you can't hear your phone down the hall even with max volume. The speakers are weak compared to 4s. Also the qwerty keyboard suggesting words is sometimes annoying. But i'm not a texting person so i can live with that. All in all it's a good device.
