Just a background, I come from an S3, Note2, and S4. So if you're familiar with the previous phones, you will not be disappointed. Samsung likes to tweak it's internal apps, touchwiz, with every major phone release and it keeps getting better and better. The phone runs smooth and cool. Battery life has been great - a bit better than my old Note2. 4K video recording has been a bonus. I also have the watch, and the sync between the watch and phone is seamless. Everything just 'works' I'm very happy with my purchase, and will recommend to anyone needing a bigger phone.
Fast performer, great battery life, plenty of functionality, good screen size. Replaced it once due to bad radios & bad Wi-Fi but now satisfied with my Note3.
Pros: Bright display
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Job Samsung... wish Knox wasnt included... or, release a Knox free version. Make alot of the bloatware uninstallable, by putting in the data/app folder.
If this isn't the best phone in the market right now, I don't know what is. This phone is superb. The screen is flawless. The battery life will get you through a day with moderate usage with 50% remaining after 16 hours of use (3,200 mwh). The CPU will handle most of your commands without a hiccup. This has 3GB of RAM. 32GB on standard model (about 25GB usable after installing all your apps) will be enough for most of your files. The S pen is a great tool for most (if not all) professionals.
On the other hand, Samsung still has room to improve it's products. The DAC (digitial to analog chip) could be better, so don't expect your music to sound audiophile quality. The phone still feels like a toy because of the plastics used, same thing with the S pen.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is the best phone in the market right now. It has everything you need to replace at least your other phone or your small tablet. However, you should get a decent case and perhaps a replacement S-pen just in case you drop your phone or lose your S-pen.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, battery life, camera quality, cpu speed, hd display
Cons: Too big, plastic
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quite large, but functionality made me switch.

I've had nothing but iPhones almost since they came out and the first time I picked up the Note 3 it just felt giant. Then I surfed the web a bit, learned tricks and tips and eventually felt the functionality beat the inconvenience of the size.
After a month, it has replaced our iPad as well. So I think of it more as a very portable device that I can make phone calls on than a phone.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, functional

I have a Samsung house and don't regret a second of it. All of their products are on point and offer a huge amount of versatility and functionality!
Definitely worth the upgrade from my Note II, I just wished AT&T didn't pile on so much bloatware and didn't lock the boatloader so that I can really take advantage of the processor!
Best Phone on the Market in my opinion. I find myself reaching for the Galaxy Note 3 while my other devices collect dust! This was a big move going from IOS to ANDROID, however the innovation Samsung has brought to the Galaxy Note is inspiring leaving me to consider why I didn't make the move sooner!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, technoligically advanced, best of the best
