S3 is a nice device , had it for 3 days , then returned it , verizon will charge you 35 dollars restocking fees 14 days return policy, and you can get a different device " hint i got the iphone 5 instead " of course if you bought it from verizon. battery on all 4g devices is going to be bad comparing to the 3g devices and even worse than none smart phones. i went crazy and bought a double battery when i got the s3 , it was delivered a week after i returned the phone , if you are going to be stuck with the s3 i would say get one . don't buy it if you are not sure if you are going to keep it or not, they are around 20 dollars on ebay , would love to sell you mine too . good luck with the phone , i am just an iPhone fan.
