My AT&T iPhone 3GS is getting long in the tooth and I'm okay for an upgrade, so the hunt is on. I've spent a bunch of time reading reviews and comparisons of the two subject phones and I'm still on the fence.
I have really enjoyed my iPhone - the user interface works and works very well. DW has a Samsung Nexus and I had to help her set it up and occasionally function as her help desk so I'm somewhat familiar with Samsung's implementation of Android (plus I have an Android tablet.)
Having said that, I'm leaning toward the S3 but have a couple of reservations - call quality and picture (as in camera) quality. It appears the iPhone 5 with its three microphones has the edge over the S3 for call quality and the iPhone has better color balance and dynamic range. Oh, another demerit for the S3 was the screen seems to be dimmer and harder to read in bright light.
So we sit here and ponder...
