I recently upgraded from a Galaxy Note II. The Note III has sharper colors, and sports a Gorilla Glass 3 screen. Battery life is AWESOME! I use my phone a LOT! One charge at night is sufficient to last an entire day with WIFI, Bluetooth, and GPS. All of the applications I have loaded (over 50) run flawlessly. Very fast and and with my 32GB memory card I have a whopping 64GB of storage. I particularly enjoy the unimpeded sound from the bottom mounted speaker. With Headphones the sound is ultra clear with deep base, and crystal clear highs. Picture and video taking are very realistic. And watching movies on the big screen is a pleasure! I make extensive use of the onsreen note taking ability and the improvements in the Air Command are welcome and excellent. I did like the math solving ability on the note screen of the Note 2 better.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, great battery life
I've been using Samsung phones since I first was allowed to have a cell phone over 10 years ago when I turned 18. Rarely have I ever strayed, and for good reason. Samsung's phones have always been some of, if not the, best on the market. I re-found my love for them with the emergence of the Galaxy line of phones. I picked up the Galaxy S Vibrant when it released and I haven't looked back.
Over the years I've watched this line of phones evolve from an already amazing product to something even better. An exponential growth in quality. The Note 3 is slick. The processor can handle quite a bit, which makes for a smoother experience, especially considering some of the cooler features like the multi window capability. If I want to watch some videos on YouTube while working on a poem, I can do both right on my phone, at the same time, and not lose any processing speed in doing so. I love the S Pen as well, which I feel has improved from previous models. The air command capability is a life saver, especially the Action Memos from the S Pen's menu. The ability to quickly scribble out a note is fantastic. Add to that the fact you can tap a button and it recognizes your handwriting and suggests relevant actions is amazing. I could go on and on about how much I love this phone and its features, like the gestures and smart stay and so on. There's so much as far as software that I adore about it and it offers, I'm sure I've missed some other, awesome features. Oh, but I can't go forgetting the screen. I was often criticized for the size of this phone, and I'll admit it. It is kind of massive. But it is, by a wide margin, not the largest phone on the market. Since the first Galaxy Note, competitors have come out with their own "phablets", mistakenly thinking it was only the size that made the Note sell so well. But I digress. The screen is just the right size. It fits in my hand, fits in my pockets, and I can still navigate it with one hand (in fact I've written this review with one hand). And it's such a beautiful, vibrant, crisp display. Watching movies and tv on here is actually a great experience. HD content is in fact HD with the awesome AMOLED screen. And the screen is large enough you can actually turn on subtitles without covering half the video. And let's not forget that the rear facing camera records in both 1080p and 4k. How's that for HD memories? I absolutely love this phone, but I'm really excited for the fact that it's almost time for me to upgrade. The next set of Galaxy phones is coming, and though I wait with bated breath to get my hands on the new Note, I can bare the wait (albeit with mild jealousy for my friends who've already upgraded) with this amazing phone.
I appreciate the screen size and design of this phone. The option to look at two screens is helpful. My only complaint is with 3 way calling. I can't separate the conference call back to individual line to continue private calls.
This product is good if your not in need for absolutely current products
