anyone else feels that s3 screen quality isn't as good as s2?

my s2 slipped from my hand when i was taking out from pocket, flew quite a few meters and landed on tiles but only the plastic housing got mark. screen totally ok. no casing at all.

I went to the service centre yesterday.. got quoted $270 to change the entire LCD screen. Mine got some scratches at the bottom left of the blue bezel. Sian :( was wondering if I should actually drop my phone and crack the screen so I can get the replacement done for free :s22:

Mayb u can go down try again but using a diff method to tell the cso.

U can say u bought the phone but didn't check the set properly. When home den realised got scratches. Went back telco but they dun allow u to change. Den ask cso got any advice to giv u anot.

but my bezel scratch is not like full stop sia. :( it's like made up of a few lines... hai. just feel quite sian lor.. so fast kena scratched liao.

if purposely drop the phone to crack the screen... just for a free replacement of the LCD, like damn cock also. and i think it'd be even more cock to pay $270 for the replacement... :s22:

S2 bezel takes impact first , S3 drop G glass 2 straight takes impact , so its better to get those casing , cover all around the perimeter of the phone
