This phone blows my mind with all its awesome features. I love the handwriting to text function. I love how large the phone is because I have long fingers and couldn't seem to hold smaller phones for very long, whereas this phone fits my hand just perfect! I love how smart this phone is, I've almost thought of giving it a name hahaha!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is by far the best phone I have ever owned and I have owned a lot of phones. The screen size is nice and big and is crystal clear. I love the fact that it has a micro sd card slot. This makes it gray for taking lots of pictures and videos and storing loss of music with out taking away from the internal storage. The combination of the very fast processor and 3gb of ram means it is never slow no matter how many programs are open or which intensive program is being used. Hands down the best phone there is.
This is the best phone I have owned. The speed of the phone is great! At first it feels weird with a huge phone but it is really easy to get the hang off. It takes great pictures and Samsung has alot of great camera settings to choose from. And the S Pen is definitely great to have.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I know you can never convince young people with young eyes that big cell phones are the way to go, but for older people 'they are the bomb!' ;-)
Seriously like the phone, and if you have used an Android phone before you will have no issues moving to this phone. The only thing that might be different from your previous phone, might be the location of the "back button", for me it was on the other bottom left on my previous phone, and is now on the right on this phone. Also the power button location is different. But these two changes are something you adjust to quickly, probably a couple of days at most.
So, as to negatives, like all the larger phones, I wish there was a longer battery life. I have no problem getting through a day on the battery, but I do charge it every night.
Also, while I would say the screen is bright, it is NOT bright enough to see if you are out in the sun.
While the phone is large, it will still fit in a dress shirt pocket, although it peeks over the top a bit. It also will fit in a front pants pocket (I don't trust having it in a rear pocket).
All in all, I view this as a great phone and wonder what the next generation will bring?
Pros: Durable, large readable screen, reasonable battery life
Cons: screen could be brighter for outdoor viewing
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is by far the best cell phone i have ever purchased. It has a ton of features some ive not even used yet and i have had this phone now for several months. It does all i need a personal assistant to do plus more.
I loved this phone since, the first time I heard about it. I waited a long time for it to become available to purchase. I like big phones with HD and power to it. Which is what the Note 3 gives me. The only feature I wish could be added. A tutorial of the various features through video, always available on the phone. Instead of it only being used when first activating the phone. I am big fan of samsung products. I also, have a Samsung tab 10.1. .....
It is a good phone I do have problems with it freezing up on me and I'll have to restart it. Other then that it's an great phone a lot better then the I phone I had before.
