What do y'all think the price will be? I hope its not too high.
Probably $500. Worst of all, you'll be paying for a watered down version of the S3, and a bad one at that. If you're going to drop that kind of money, get the one from a decent provider, like T-Mobile. I'm sure as Hell not going to stick around for CM9 or a decent phone to eventually come out -- switch now.
Device(s): Nexus 4. I mean it is the best phone on the planet, duh. -.-
Carrier: $40 Straight Talk. It's elite, duh.

You will pay the difference and then some with that monthly payment.
I personally don't mind spending 500 on a phone cause i will still be paying 40 a month.
Plus, way back in the day before some of you kiddies were born, we used to have to pay about 500 for a good Nextel and then pay 100 a month. And you only got that phone once you passed their credit check. Lol. Ahhhh the good ole days.

I still don't see why people are saying Metro is getting the S III. Anyone have a link that provides something more encouraging than the fact that Metro was listed as a carrier on the register page for updates???
Also, I can't see Metro picking this up unless it's an extremely watered down version of this phone that they can sell for less than $400. In which case I wouldn't even want it.

No one is saying the s3 IS coming. The entire thread is based on if it did come to metro would you buy it. But I agree I couldn't see them selling it for more than $400. MetroPCS customers are known for getting cheap phones that get straight to the point. The people that actually care about phone specs are here, or were here lol. So it should be interesting to see what they do.

I hear you Fuzzy, these kids wouldn't know what to do if we were stuck back in those days. Say bag phone to anyone under 30 and they have no idea what you are talking about,lol.

Who, the Heck is now trolling, if you feel you need to cut and paste a fellow members text here to verify something with "facebook metropcs team," you need to understand something, people here that help one and another DO NOT TROLL, get a dang life and quit taking this forum as a bed of knowledge,
I have seen people taking peoples quotes from here,
Making how to videos and claiming they made roms, or themes, by editing the cwm text, COMMON now.

No prob! I tried to ask if it would be watered down asking if there would be a difference from ones on other carriers, thats when she looked at me like I was stupid an didnt know what I meant an said it'll be like the same as others(that I doubt)
For some reason I have faith... hell I remember the days of metro starting out with 1 or 2 kyrocera phones that everyone had down in Ft.Lauderdale in the late 90s (TERRIBLE SERVICE ONLY 1 OR 2 BARS WOULD BE PRESENT, my pops said f-that went an got a primeco phone lol), never thought they would have android when the droid first hit the scene so I am impressed at the growth for a prepaid service... I have faith

I remember being jealous when metro first started cause the service stopped a County above me. They have come a really long way
was talking to a metro manager today (actually homies, lol) there was some call/meeting about a new phone he supposedly missed for family emergency..... cough*vegas*cough.... but whatever it is, he knows it will be watered down, and renamed.....
rumors are looking better and better......
ill be on the corner where the lady fatness gym is
