I know for a fact that you cannot use this phone with the $25 plan. As soon as you switch your phone with the carrier they will force you to select a current plan and you will lose the grandfathered $25 plan. A real bummer but might be worth it for LTE.
 
So let me see if I understand correctly

US Galaxy S3 (Sprint) vs Victory
  • 4.7" vs 4.0"
  • 1280x720 amoled vs 800x480 some sort of unlisted tft
  • 1.5 ghz vs 1.2 ghz, same krait chip but at different clock speeds
  • 2gb ram vs 1gb ram
  • 16gb internal memory vs 4gb, both have microsd that supports up to 64gb
  • Both Jellybean
  • Both LTE, but S3 will roam on verizon and does not throttle after 2.5gbs. So your coverage may suck with the victory, or it will be the exact same depending on where you are?
  • Gorilla Glass vs No Scratch Resistant Glass
  • Great Camera vs Probably Crappy Camera

    $80 dollar plan for unlimited data and 450 minutes, plus device subsidy
    vs
    $35 dollar plan for 2.5 gb download and 300 mins

Am I understand all this correctly or did I get some info wrong.

I am asking for I probably be getting this for my dad.

That is pretty much key right there. As you have shown, the S3 specs are vastly superior in every way. But the Victory will save you $1300 over the course of the 2-year contract you would be stuck in, if you buy the S3.

And with that $1300 you could probably buy 2 other brand new phones of your choice, at full price.

The s3 is better, my point was this phone is almost as good as the s3, and better than the s2 unless I am missing something?
 
Unless he wants a bigger screen, I think this phone is "good enough". If you want a bigger screen, you can always get the Virgin Mobile Galaxy SII, which is $299, but you get the $35/mo plan. My wife has the Virgin Mobile EVO 4G - really nice screen, but it has plenty of quirks.
