I purchased this phone during the third (3rd) quarter of 2014 not realizing the Note 4 was shortly due for release - I do NOT regret making this move at all. This is the BEST phone/phablet on the market right now, and in terms of performance & features is actually a whole lot better than the Note 4 or any other phone out there right now. With this phone, I'm even able to use Galaxy Gear 2 which is very important to me. The processor and amount of RAM are amazing on the phone. Most importantly, the battery life is the best I have ever experienced. This phone will last me 2 days on battery power using it seldomly throughout the day - while using it heavy, it will last me between 1 day & 5 hours and 1 day & 10 hours at the very least. Hands down I'm very, very happy with this purchase!
There are some glitches that need to be fixed in the OS. It continues to ask you for default homepage even after you have selected one and chose "Always". Also becomes bogged down and slow at times
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color
I have own my Note3 for newly two years, before buying my Note 3, I used my small cell phone, a 10 inch tablet, and my home computer, to search the internet and conduct business. After my purchase of the Note 3, I only use my Note 3 for nearly all of my internet needs, I haven't even touched my tablet, or for that matter I haven't used my expensive camera, and just minimal use of my desktop computer at home. Although the Note3 was rather pricey then I'm very happy to have it as part of my work and fun life. I love my Note3 and will use it until Samsung comes up with a Note6 or something.
This is the most user friendly phone that I have ever had or used. So many cool features. And I would rather shoot pictures from my phone than my DSLR camera.
This phone has a great camera and awesome features.
