I switched from an Evo 4g LTE i never new what i was missing until I upgraded. The Note 3 put me on my knees, I set up the phone in minutes and really settled in and learned the phone in about a week for all the things i used to use. then the mind blowing started I really started finding out what i have been missing out on all these years. I as so impressed with the Note3 I went out I bought a stage 4 32g chip and because I knew I was about to be launched into a whole new world and i wanted to be ready. the speed is outstanding the the amount of apps i run shut down my EVO this SN3 handles it all and keeps on going without missing a beat. I can honestly say I'm in love with my phone,...sorry its more than a phone its a Note3 by Samsung. I am still discovering things and ways to improve my abilities to use my Note in every aspect of my life home, work, my social life and my hobbies. A Truly remarkable masterpiece of innovation that inspires. Well done Samsung Well Done!
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Note 3 Excels, But...

Pros: 1. Large bright OLED display with integrated digitizer. The screen looks like it is physically on the Surface and has amazing color reproduction. Visible at most times on 30 to 40 percent brightness and being glare free in broad daylight and perfectly visible at 100 percent.
2. My first truly wireless experience. I have had the phone almost a month and have not plugged a single wire into it. I have been able to use it as a wireless Hotspot, a credit card, and an id. I have transfered files to a computer, other phones, and tablets as well as being able to play music on a speaker and charge my phone all wirelessly. 3. So many features No single review can cover all of the software and hardware features, but samsung really has outdone themselves 4. USB 3.0 It is lightning fast for both charging and data transfer, but it is backwards compatible with all the other usb 2 chargers.
5. Premium design Despite some glaring design issues, the phone feels very nice to hold and use, and despite what some say, the back may be plastic, but it truly feels like leather. The chrome finish is a nice touch 6. S voice blows SIRI out of the water
7. Battery lasts forever and a day
Cons: 1: the wireless charging battery door The only points I took off are for design, for two reasons this being the main one. The wireless charging back from Samsung makes Otterbox not fit your phone, and anyone who loves their phone as much as me wants it in a protective case. Boo. However, other reviews say that the s view cover is nice for protection. It's no Otterbox but how often do you really need Otterbox level protection. I plan on using the Otterbox for hiking and airsoft and the like and the s view wireless charging cover all other times. Either way it kinda sucks
2. The chrome dents easily Not like super easy but if you miss your pocket on asphalt you will have a rough edge.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, battery, features
Cons: chrome dents easy, the wireless charging battery door

Great phone loaded with tons of features, can be touchy until you get used to it. I like this phone so much better than the other I device that I had. The Wi Fi picks up well and much quicker than my old device. The screen is great and clear. The device is wide so hard to use with one hand(at least for my wife). I am happy with the battery life with the amount that I use it has great life! Right now the accessories are some what limited, cases are difficult to get right now but I an sure that more are on the way...I love this phone the note 3 was the right choice for me.
I like the note 3 is fast decent service signal dropped it several times n ddnt break. Haven't had chance to use all the bells n whistles but pretty impressed :) covers are a pain to find still an most are expensive or blech. . Minor problem :) this is my 23rd Samsung
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, extra features
Cons: force closes alot of apps, landscape view dsnt always work correctly for me, speaker/volume not high enough for ph calls
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like the larger size of this phone. The screen is bright and easy to see. It large size does limit the availible cases to carry it. The only real dislike I have is that it keeps turnimg on the wifi even when I have it turned off. All in all this is my favorite cell phoneI have had over the past 20 years.
