Do what I do, buy a chinese phone, but pay attention, not a brand that is not known. Huawei is kind of good, but mostly what you can find on amazon it's pretty cheap and good for the job they have to do. I bought mine off from amazon and it works like a jet! and yes, I knew about the battery of the S3, they could do nothing about it,a friend of mine changed the phone just because she was tired to see that happening again and again.
