I remember the Galaxy S3 was the first phone that had the magic eraser just like what Google has now and it worked just as good way back then. And also you could put a custom ROM on these phones and overclock them and make them way more than what they were out of the box.
@@M22018 70 million units of galaxy s3's will disagree with you, especially since not that many people buy cheap chinese phones that would actually have that wallpaper, the cheap chinese phones people buy are Huawei and Xiaomi
@@KoenDoesThings well actually there's 7 Billion people living in this world, and there's also huge probability for people to buy cheap or fake phone rather than buy the original one for some reason. Not all people can afford the original phone, and not all region sell their phone in some cellular contracts as their payment scheme.
I got one passed down from my uncle a few weeks ago and I just got it to turn on and work with that clunky wireless charging method because the charger port is destroyed
@@rdmz135 a decade is only 10 years and this phone is many times more powerful and has so much more many features than my current new phone It's perfectly usable today I'm certain 10 years only seems ancient because from how ridiculously often people replace their phones for the 'latest and greatest' On average every two years ! It's rather ridiculous
Imagine using this cheap ugly ios clone instead of a real phone back then😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 and people complain and say why other people look at me like I’m some weirdo lmao

my favorite Custom ROM is Chayogen Mod
Still got mine although Samsung bricked it with their last update 5-6yrs ago. Won't recognise any sim card whatsoever 😤
What that f up
😂😂
You can reinstall the system with Odin
@@andriveWait I can downgrade to 4.1.2?
@@frylock428 Yes, as long as you find the right firmware and check Nand Erase All
That wallpaper was more famous than the phone😂
How?
@@KoenDoesThings Cuz Every cheap or Chinese phone uses the same wallpaper that's why the wallpaper more famous than the phone itself 😂

Every single thing before was good when it was s3's year. Not just the phone but everything nostalgic...
My first android!
Yup
Same here . Loved it i have a Galaxy S24 plus now and. I'm still loyal to samsung
Same lol
Hopefully still an Android user.
The S3 era was the best
Nature inspired touchwiz software is the best UI for me.
Solid phone. Never had a screen protector. There are zero scratches on the screen
Agreed
s3
I am getting emotional SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 😢
Best Samsung change was going from touchwiz to one UI
I had the note 2 and I would say it was the second best phone I have ever used
I had one of these!
Still using an I747 one, Android 7 (LineageOS) is the last one on it
Ok but like shake to refresh sounds kinda usefulness
It also had the bubble wallpaper, I have the phone but sadly the screen is a little bit cracked and the charger is missing.
Eu já tive um s4 mini, a pouco tempo atrás, comprei outro e estou de boa😎😎
My first smartphone!!
Galaxy S3 was my first smart phone.
Still using samsung s3 today in 2023 ☺
Same bro s3 neo 👍. But android version is very low 4.4.4
Im still using it in 2023 but with Android 13 Lineage OS on my i9305
How is it? Is it still running Android 5 Lollipop or did you custom ROM it using Lineage OS?
@@PScool3590YT wow impressive
@@ExileRicochet13 yes custom rom to android 7 nougat
I got one passed down from my uncle a few weeks ago and I just got it to turn on and work with that clunky wireless charging method because the charger port is destroyed
As a 2016 person I want that phone
The led notification light it best
I have one with a puffed battery still now but currently using s10 plus 3 years old
I actually want a phone with this design but with latest Android and atleast avg performance processor.
The S3 is considered vintage???
It is a vintage phone
@@akashebe6626 How do you define vintage?
@@epsilon5437 it was released 11 yrs back. Isn't that old enough to consider it as a vintage phone in smartphone world?
@@akashebe6626 11 years is too less. Even If you see from last 7-8 years, there has been no significant advancement in smartphones also.
@@epsilon5437 compare a S6 to s23 and then see the difference
I don't have galaxy s3 but I have galaxy s3 neo
Where can I buy one
Anyone know how to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.0.4?
I had this one in white best phone I ever had I regret that trade it for the s4
Samsung has been making phones long before Apple ever thought of phones
i have thia phone too, but the battery is dying every 1h!
Apple is shady for that 💀
Yh they do that all the time. Trying to sue their competition 😂
i still got it, right next to me actually right now charging
Cool! I'm getting a black S3 mini from ebay soon.
My dad had this phone until 2019😂
tilt to zoom was not a bad feature at all, there’s so much worse and you couldn’t mention those?
screen size was ahead
I loved this phone until someone I let in my house stole it and I had to upgrade to the s4
I got a s3 and the screen is broken but we have a phone repair friend Who will fix it for free
Apple trying to control the market with bad phones as usual also i remember the S3 I wanted it for a 1st phone
I have this phone but that was broken😢😢😢😢
VINTAGE? You make me feel old
How is an S3 a vintage phone o.o
I was thinking of uprading to a S3 Mini..
What phone are you using right now?
@@edwardelric. Samsung Galaxy J5 from 2015 :)
It's a decade old, which in tech terms is vintage
@@rdmz135 a decade is only 10 years
and this phone is many times more powerful and has so much more many features than my current new phone
It's perfectly usable today I'm certain
10 years only seems ancient because from how ridiculously often people replace their phones for the 'latest and greatest'
On average every two years !
It's rather ridiculous
you really shouldn't. it doesn't get firmware updates anymore. you wouldn't want to use banking apps or messengers on there.
It's the longest supported android
I had an S1 with a custom ROM. 2 years later I upgraded to the S3. It was slower and more buggy. PoS.
I have one 😎
Vintage 🤔
This is samsung note 2 not s3
That's an s3
Is a big s3
That's an S3. Maybe learn stuff before commenting.
vintage is 20 years and older
Samsung Galaxy S3
Too bad the battery on this phone was garbage.
😂😂😂
Unpopular opinion: The design of old Samsungs is absolute garbage
Apple sucks
LOL S3 plebs. S3 Ti 4 ever!
Imagine using this cheap ugly ios clone instead of a real phone back then😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 and people complain and say why other people look at me like I’m some weirdo lmao
The S3 was cheap?
