This phone has numerous features, and is user friendly particularly to those who have larger hands than most. The pen is a nice touch for note taking and precision. Screen is very pretty, and this phone rakes excellent quality pictures. I highly recommend it. It does however have a huge problem with Android version 5.0, GPS and network connections will drop constantly, causing it to become very unreliable. I've been told 5.1 works well. But I know 4.4.4 works very well.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, big people friendly, charges quickly, usb 3.0
Cons: android 5.0 fails
I would recommend this to a friend!

My review on my samsung galaxy note 3

My note 3 can do so much more than my older phone which was a samsung galaxy s3. You can add notes, set up events on certain dates & times. Love the camera! Great mega pixels. There is so much to this phone that I am still learning.
This was my very first smart phone and I love the Samsung Note. I intend to upgrade to the Note 5 this week. The versatility and options the S pen gives is convenient and allows taking notes, as well as texting and emailing so much easier than typing.
The photo quality is exceptional and I love the large screen to view everything clearly. I thought about getting the Edge, but I like the Note so much, I think I am sticking with that for my upgrade.
I have had this product for a year and before that I had the Note 2. I love the Note series as a mobile device. They are large enough to have a good screen size for activities that my work requires (University faculty). The smartpen is a great help! The speed of the processor is good, though at times, the phone can get bogged down. A good solid hard reboot can fix that (just remember to back everything up to google). The battery life is good even when during times of heavy use. I would love to see an even longer battery life, though. It's compatibility with apps and other devices is great! I find it to be a bit pricey as a stand-alone phone, but if you have a contract, the price isn't so bad. I will definitely continue with samsung products.
