Picked up the Galaxy S3 today

[music life]

I just picked up the S3 today. I came from the Droid X2(what a pos)

After coming from the X2 it feels like im holding a futuristic device in my hand. Amazing when i click the camera and it actually comes up instantly vs waiting 3-5 seconds.

I know ive only had it for about 3 hours now but wow. This thing is sweet. I dont need any quadzillas. My S3 will do fine

Odd thread on many levels but.... Congrats on the S3. I have had ALL the Droids currently have an X, a Razr, A RazrMaxx and an S3. Been carrying the S3 now for a couple months.
The Maxx used to make it a day plus some of the next (what good was that?) my S3 makes the whole day and has about 40-50% remaining so, I charge it at night like I always used to do in the normal world before trying to see how long the battery would last world arrived. Whatever.
Both great phones, preferring the S3 for what its worth. If I need to post pics of ALL mentioned I guess I could do that but .... probably won't believe me or not.

I just picked mine up last night. I originally had a Droid X then moved to the iPhone 4S. I loved the reliability of the 4S but wasn't impressed with the 5. I was waiting on the Razr HD but after hearing of the rumored antenna issues I decided to go ahead withe the GS3. Very cool being back on android but a lot to get used to again. I have been playing with the phone and installing a bunch of apps and playing with settings. Can anyone give me "basic" tips on making the battery last longer? I only need a full day, nothing like day and a half just ONE FULL DAY.

What are you doing to get a FULL DAY. Any help would great. Thanks.

Well I started by going to app manager/all/then disabling all the apps I don't use such as Samsung accounts and s-voice and all the little bloatware I didn't need. Then I have my power save mode on and also I have my sync off (as I don't care about very many app notifications). And we'll. That's about it really. It's doing pretty good for me this way. Hope it helps
