Default Exchanged for GS3

Not that anyone cares, but I'm wondering if I'm one of the few that purchased a dinc 4g on release day and later exchanged for a gs3. After having the dinc 4g for a little over a week, I just felt that it had VERY little of anything extra over the original dinc that I was carrying, and the excitement really faded quickly.

I'm sure pretty soon I'll grow really tiresome of touchwiz and the extra gimmicky samsung stuff on the phone and will take some time to learn how to root and mod the phone.

So you never tried rooting the inc 4g? It's bootloader is unlockable. Don't act like its a bad phone. You don't know how to unleash its potential

Some issues with that right now. HTC is no longer allowing it. Waiting on their official response some time today or tomorrow.

Sure there is not much difference between the orig dinc and the inc4g, but I would say there is even less difference between the inc4g and the SG3.
They are running the same CPU and GPU. The cameras are different hardware but I think they are about the same. Inc4g seems to have a better lens but the SG3 MAY have a better sensor/chip.

I guess it depends on opinion.
I would say if you like a larger screen and/or TouchWiz, the the GS3 is the right phone. If you like a smaller screen and/or sense, than the Inc4g is the right phone. Otherwise I don't see much else to compare.

Exactly, I sold my Rezound and used my upgrade on this phone because it has a 4' display and I don't see Verizon matching anything close to that soon. I am in high hopes that HTC comes out with a new phone that isn't large than 4.3

any larger than 4.3' is no longer a phone to me. and I personally cannot use it.
I really love this phone.
Donations always welcome, but never expected.
If I've done something you appreciate, please hit the "THANKS" button.

im weird with screen sizes: 4.0 is perfect for me phone wise...but...i could see myself getting a note sized device as a hybrid so i dont need to have a tablet too

would get annoyed when using it to actually talk on the phone, but id deal w/ the trade off

I was considering doing this exchange in OP but i can't stand physical keys. Only majpr gripe with inc4g is that they made the screen narrower and taller instead of keeping the same ratio, but o understand this is due to qhd resolution.
Oh, and creaky battery cover bothers me too.
