I am still on the fence about which phone to get, and while doing some price checks (speaking of which, I am not sure about the UK, but doesn't look like the Galaxy S3 is really cheaper in my region), I noticed that the S3 comes in different hardware specifications. So I need to decide which versions I have access to, which is best best if I want to travel with, and which one is the best value - frankly it's a mess. I note is that the international version doesn't do LTE. Is that the one being sold in the UK (the Wiki doesn't list a UK/European model amongst the 9 available).
The iPhone 5 is.. less messy but I still need to figure out what is the deal between the A1428 and A1429 (seeing that I need a phone for Europe and Asia, I *think* that the A1429 is what I'll need but I better check more because Japan usually do their own things).
It's not so much that 4G/LTE/whatever you call it is really much of a dealmaker/breaker for me, but I figured that if I am going to buy another phone to use for the next 3+ years, it may as well come with it. I do not recall 3G being such a mess (or maybe I just missed the issues), so why is 4G such a mess?

Anyway, with my el cheapo contract, there is no need for me to worry about 4G. But here's something kinda funny: they sell "LTE compatible" SIM cards with the 150kps cap too xD
