I pay attention to the buzz about the S3 over on xda and rootzwiki (gotta keep AOKP up to date); there's no massive class-action-level issues with the phones here*, it's just that the new shinies are out and the Samsung crowd is possibly even more fickle than the iDevice crew. Me, I'm manufacturer-agnostic but too invested now in Android to switch...the Moto X looks quite nice. Or the LG G2.

* - US phones use Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC's while the Chinese phones use Samsung's own Exynos chips - the problems are theorized by hobbyists more knowledgeable than I to be something in the Exynos hardware.
