Love my new phone--very intuitive. Now when I use my iPad I keep trying to find the back button or the menu button. Love the screen clarity and larger size.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I loved the Galaxy 3 but the Note 3 is Awesome hands down. Camera features, Screen size and the speakers when listening to music is great. Love this phone!!!
I LOVE my phone. I would give it 5+ stars for the camera alone! But to be a little more realistic and helpful to others here is my honest opinion:
I struggled leaving team iphone for years and put up with a lot of annoying phone issues until my iphone finally became useless to me. I tried to hold out for a larger screen and better camera, but since that did not happen with the release of the 5 I figured I would stop wasting my time and make the change. Based on my husband's excellent experience with the Galaxy S3 (yes he still has the 3 and does not want to upgrade) I figured I would go that route.
While I am in love with the phone size, I will admit it makes some things a little more difficult. No more one handed functions (texting and selfies almost always require two hands now). Small annoyance, not really a factor in my happiness with the phone. Otherwise I am happy with the size and ease of reading and watching things on screen, The phone is light and compact when not in my bulky screen case (I opted for super duper protection).
The functions are immeasurable and I can't even begin to go into every little utility I am happy with, but let me just say in general this phone (or phablet as some may call it) has and does everything! And after having it for a couple of months now I will also share that it is easy to navigate and maneuvered. I did not have to spend much time using guides or manuals so that is a plus. Bit keep in mind there are many resources to pull from if you prefer to go that route.
The battery life is a heaven send to me because that was one thing my iphone lacked. At the end of its life cycle I was lucky if I got 20 minutes out of it. As it stands now, I can start the day with a full charge and go the entire length of a day in full use (I am a busy multi tasker who constantly emails, uses social media, texts, uses navigation and camera) before retiring to bed and needing a phone charge.
The camera...Best camera ever. I record my kids sporting games and share the clips with other parents who are thrilled with the quality. Posting directly to Youtube, my phone has become the hit of the team! I love the beauty face setting which is like an automatic touch up setting that works wonders on my old weathered face (haha). The display images and picture quality are dynamic!
I think I could go on an on about how amazing this phone is, but let me go ahead and mention the one (and only) complaint I have about the phone - The volume button and power key are in the same position on opposite sides of the phone. This is another mere annoyance as often times you mistakenly hit the opposing key when trying to squeeze one side. Example, when I want to turn the volume up or down on the left, I usually hit the power/button lock at the same time on the right when I squeeze, locking my screen.
It is also on the expensive side but I think well worth the price in comparison to a new iphone!
PC in a phone. Love watching the Cardinals play while chatting with my dad and brothers at the same time. S-Pen is very useful. Tons of features. Definitely recommend this one.
So far I love the look, size, weight and performance of this phone. One of the main reasons I chose it is because of the camera. It takes beautiful pictures and the features are great! So had I have no complaints. I had one small problem with the charging port but it is in the process of being resolved.
