No I'm not asking which is better.. But more of which is better for me?
Currently own an iPhone 4 jailbreaked, and i use BiteSMS a lot, since i run my little business through my phone mainly, and i send a lot of text messages with pictures, or just texts, and group messages or group picture messages.. and BiteSMS is a little app for iphone that enhances the texting app(like allowing u to text while playing a game or such or on the lockscreen)

Anyways, basically, i use the following a lot..
+Texting many different numbers, so organization is a good thing.
+Be able to create groups, so i can easily mass text
+send 5+ more pics to someone without too much hassle, like for iphone, if i dont have someones contact i have to go to my photo app and select up to 5 and copy it and paste it in the text, and the limit is 5 actually.. which sucks
+Not lagging too much between changing windows
+Organization of contacts
+Quick reply
+Pre-set replying texts.. like i send out my address a lot and hate retyping, does android have this?
+I guess customization !

Also hows the voice recognition on android? is it comparable to siri?
 
You can create groups with the S3 and send text and mail. Only problem is receiving text from a group text, you will not see who else it was sent to and not be able to reply to all.
If you are wanting to sen 5+ pics in a MMS or E-Mail the provider may have a limit that can be sent.
I have no lag at all going from one screen to another.
Contacts are listed alphabetically and be set using first or last name.
I am not sure if the stock text app can have custom replies set.
Don't use the voice recogniton, so can't help here.

As far as what is best for you, only you can decide.

For the group text, what i actually prefer is to send a text to lets say 20 people, but not the group conference way, i dont want them knowing the other recipients and thus only being able to reply to me.

Currently on my iphone4 i have verizon and i can send 11 at a time which is rather fine!

Do you think with a custom rom i can find something to set custom replies?

thank you!

I use Go SMS for messaging, it's the only one I've found that can handle sending and receiving group texts. It's still a little glitchy but it works.
-It's pretty easy to make groups and to send messages to groups.
-Not sure if there is a maximum number of pictures you can send, but you can adjust the maximum size up to 5 Mb.
-This phone doesn't lag at all, it's pretty fast.
-You can send and edit quick replys
-Customization possibilities are limitless.
