Amazing phone, yet discriminatory
on February 11, 2014
Posted by: Tlucas
I love the Galaxy Note 3. I've had Motorola Droids for the past few years and was going in for an upgrade thinking that I was going to get another one. But when I saw this phone in store and played with it for a while I went with the Note 3 instead. No regrets; the phone is amazing. It actually kind of intimidated me at first because of all the new features, which made me feel like an old man at 24. HOWEVER, this phone is completely discriminatory towards left-handed people. Everything about this phone from the location of the s-pen, to the location of commonly used buttons seems like it was designed without giving any thought to the comfort of lefties. The phone is so cool I have to overlook this (plus I'm used to it in a righties-dominated world) but I really hope a future update includes "Left-Handed Operation" in the settings. Thanks
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, battery life on netflix, screen size, s-pen functionality
I've had several phones in the past 5 years. I've been on Sprint and AT&T. The best phone to this point as far as speed, functionality, reliability, battery life, etc., was the HTC EVO 3D. I've had a couple HTC's, an LG Optimus, and a couple of Samsung devices. Up until I got the Note 3, the Evo 3D was my favorite.
When I first got my Note 3, I thought it was a huge phone, but after a little bit of time with it, I don't think it's huge, I think all other phones are just small.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, large display, great camera
Now this is a great phone! I just upgrades from my galaxy s4 and took advantage of At&t's next program and I am so impressed with this phone. I was weary at first of switching to such a large phone but got used to it very fast. One advantage is that Samsung made it very thin and light weight so to me I don't even notice its large size anymore. This phone features wise is loaded with things you can do and they finally effectively took advantage of what a stylus is capable of. Samsung is the inventor of the phablet and they hit a homerun with this one. The display is great and the new look is premium as the black note 3 has a nice leather feel and look on the back. Also, this phone is fast! I feel like Samsung finally created a phone that is capable of running their heavy loaded touchwiz software! I was considering waiting for the galaxy s5 but after now choosing the note series I do not see any going back. Grab the note and grab some galaxy gear to go alongside it, you are in for a fun time!!!
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, features
So Samsung has created a new genre of mobile devices with the original Note, the "Phablets". Since the birth of these enormous devices, we have come to expect many new features we wouldn't find in other smart phones. Samsung has the most experience in these devices, and it shows.
The Galaxy Note 3 is a beast. Extremely powerful, a big, beautiful full HD display, an increase in internal memory, 3Gb of ram (say what?), and features that will take quite awhile to get to know.
I had the Note 2, and I loved it. Then I bought the S4. Though I felt the Note 2 was the overall better device, the S4 is king for those who didn't want a monster sized device. However, the Note 3 ups the ante in every way. Samsung really is trying to push the innovation to new levels. The S-pen for me is one of the key factors. It was amazing on the Note 2, and they have improved the support for this right out of the box.
I have had this device for a few days, and have had no trouble with performance. The Note 3 runs silky smooth. Even running multi-window and loading the most demanding games, this device handles it like a pro. There is 3Gb of ram, which is the most in a cell phone to this date. I have noticed, that the features included with the software does take quite a bit of the ram; however, you do not notice cause it runs so smooth. I'm thinking that is why Samsung included the extra ram. Then there is the battery. The Note 2 came with a battery that was bigger than some other smart phones. The Note 3 increases the size slightly, however the battery life is still extremely good. I use my phone a lot throughout the day, and still have 30% at the end of the day.
Overall, the Note 3 is the best overall smart phone you can get on the market. The smart phone world is ever changing, so I'm sure something will come along shortly that may compete with this beast; then again, nothing really competed against the Note 2. Even other devices like the One Max cannot even compare. I can't wait to see where Samsung goes with the Note 4, as I will probably get that when the time comes.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, features, performance, battery life
Every day I spend with this Note I discover more things it can do and more ways it can work for me. I no longer own a tablet as I don't need one now. Many of the tasks I used to do with other devices have now all been taken over by the Note. There is absolutely no other phone that could tear me away from my Note. It works great all the time,is fast, and allows me to do everything I could want to do. Thanks Samsung!!!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, s pen, many features
Ever since i upgraded to Samsung Galaxy S2, I have fell in love with Samsung phones with no exception with this one...A beautifully innovative phone that enables one to do a lot without the need for any other device..
I love the big screen along with the great battery life.
This phone is awesome. I love it. It has a nice huge screen and a really nice camera. It has 3 GB of ram in it records in 4K. WOW! One of the best phones ever. You can scroll down with your eyes and so much more. The only issue i have with it is that every once in a while i will need to restart to connect to Wi-Fi. And also this phone is capable with sprint spark yet. And sprint has really bad 4G LTE here where i live . But that doesn't have to to with the phone. Just the network. But this is the best choice.
