Samsung Galaxy Note 3

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!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, camera!
Cons: price, location of power/lock button vs volume button
I would recommend this to a friend!

Big bright screen

I had the S4 but wanted an even bigger screen. I thought it might be a bit cumbersome to carry around but I don't notice it in my pocket any more than the S4. The processor is fast and it is very responsive. I have enjoyed the samsung phones because they run smoothly without freezing.
Pros: Bright display

I like having a phone that I can use to manage my schedule and organize notes and documents. The size is a little larger than an S4 but fits well in your grip. I could see that the size may be a problem for folks with small hands.
The features and apps are outstanding.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, features, apps
Cons: a bit too pricey
I would recommend this to a friend!

This device is the best phone i ever touched! My friends all have iphones and other androids, but when compared to my phone ... wow. My phone blows theirs out of the water. My Note 3 is faster, sleeker and takes better pictures. I never had a crash and never had to restart the phone yet. I recommend the Note 3 to all i can.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, camera clarity
Cons: expensive

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.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
