Pantech Perception stops at the FCC on the way to Verizon

This is one small instance where I will disagree.

I would not use a Pantech for a doorstop, let alone a phone.

So, here, in this situation, with your variables, I would gladly take an iPhone 5.

I feel like somebody just put a gun to my head for some reason.

The S3 is also like 6 months old at this point, when it launched it had top notch specs but comparing to whats coming out between now and the next 3-6 months yes, those are mid range specs.

Agreed.

The SGS3 is still a super popular phone, one of the best selling Android devices. It might have the same/similar specs, but look at the iPhone, it has brand name success just like the Samsung Galaxy S3 is.

What does that have to do with mid range specs?

7. RORYREVOLUTION posted on 21 Feb 2013, 16:24 1 1

The fact that the SGS3 came out over 6 months ago. Back then that was the most high end specs, this device hasnt even been released yet and it has the same specs. So how can you put down the SGS3 for having similar specs? The SGS3 is a popular device, hot selling, so of course it's going to be at a 100-200 dollar price range.

Where Pantech basically releases devices for free to 50 dollars on a contract because they don't have nearly the same hold or popularity in the marketplace.

No one "put down" the S3. I have it. I love it. However the fact is by todays standards, RIGHT NOW, it has high mid range specs.
Reading comprehension much?

sorry but to say the SGS3 is mid range is just silly. The device came over half a year ago. Comparing it to a device that hasn't even been released yet is pointless.

Clearly you don't get it and having a conversation with you is pointless. Good day.

lol don't get butt hurt over it buddy. Just because I disagree with you on the SGS3 being "mid range", you don't have to get pissy about it. We can agree to disagree on it.

SGS2 released over 6 months ago, it still is getting updates, it stil

*it still is getting support and this Pantech device is dead on arrival. I never heard once about how Pantech updated one of their devices to the next version of Android. Comparing it to the SGS3 is pointless.

I am not..."butt hurt", sir. I am choosing to end a conversation with a simpleton.

GS3 specs are upper mid range BY TODAYS STANDARDS. AS IN RIGHT NOW, TODAY.

Why this continues to elude you I neither know nor care. Good day.

Lmao no really? A device thats half a year old doesnt have TODAYS specs!?! Yet a device thats coming out in the FUTURE has the same specs as a device 8 months old and you want to compare the two? Why not compare the Droid X with the Razr Maxx HD while you're at it? Worthless comparison is my point, you got pissy because you cant accept someone disagrees with you. People disagree sometimes buddy, no need to get so defensive over it lol

Holy sh*t dude, for real, are you learning disabled? I'm not trying to flame you, but at this point that is a legit question/concern of mine.

I'm going to chime in on this.

There's some truth and some falsehood here.

Here's why:

"comparing to whats coming out between now and the next 3-6 months yes, those are mid range specs."

lolioslol words, verbatim.

Truth: The Galaxy S3 could still be considered "high end".

Why?: Many of the "better speced" devices are still unavailable for purchase by consumers at this time.

Now granted, the Droid DNA/Butterfly J could be considered "better spec", but, in my opinion, it only has the S3 beat in the display category. Otherwise, on paper, there isn't much out there that can be purchased with better specs.

In "3-6 months", however, you'll be right.

Carry on.
