Split decision in my house. After "test driving" my sister's Galaxy S3 in 2012, I decided to go that route. Surprisingly, my wife followed suit. Since she already had a MacBook Pro and an iPad, I thought she would go with iPhone. However, she did some research online in the final hours before we pulled the trigger and decided on the S3.

Predictably, she hated it pretty much from day one. The battery life was a bit of a culture shock for both of us (our previous phones, an LG flip, lasted about 5-7 days on one charge). She decided to stick it out, but when a friend upgraded to an iPhone 5, she sold her 4S to my wife. She's much happier now.

In contrast, I love my S3. It's big enough that my large hands can use it comfortably, but it still fits in my pocket. I haven't held an iPhone 5 or 6, but the 4S feels positively tiny by comparison. I'm not anti-Apple (I did have a 1st gen iPad before someone else decided that they deserved it more than I did). There has been very little that I couldn't do because I didn't have an iPhone. The Fox Sports Go app is the only notable exception that comes to mind, but I have that now, so it's all good.

I'm not exactly anxious to upgrade, but I might move to the S4 or S5 just to take advantage of Verizon's XLTE band.
