I can not find any negatives to date. Though it does take some getting used to after using iPhone for years, but I am enjoying it immensely and highly recommend.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I Love this phone

This is my second Galaxy note, I had the original and have been hooked ever since. I have to support iPhones all day and detest the tiny little screens they have. When someone finally gets a Galaxy series it's much easier for me as Samsung has an agreement with Bomgar and I can remotely support and configure devices for our employees. I use the large screen all the time when I’m remoting into our servers or employee computers to give help when I’m on the road. My sons also love the screen so they can watch their videos when we're in the car or lying in bed trying to get them to sleep. I just can’t say enough good things about this phone and LOVE the upgrade in speed since the original. It’s also fun to control the TV with the WatchOn app. I was jealous of that app on my wife’s Note 10.1. I can’t stop recommending the Note 3 and GS4 to people; I should get commission from Samsung as often as I recommend them. My only complaint is the speaker volume on the speakerphone and quality when playing music. Using the headphone jack it's great, but maybe an upgrade on the speaker next time. I love the quality of their products. I'm actually about to buy another Samsung plasma tv. (The 50" seems too small now, horrible problem I know.) I'm also glad they used plastic casing as it makes the weight lower, it's going into a protective case anway.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, amazing screen size
Cons: external speaker volume

I'm hooked!

I'm a iOS developer but by all means that doesn't make me a fan boy of Apple. After years of waiting around for them to catch up with everyone else I took the chance and gave my iPhone 5 to my girl and got a new Note 3. I have never looked back, everyday I find myself using it more and more to the point that I believe I've become a fan boy of the Note 3. Great device all around.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color

Amazing Mobile Phone!
on March 14, 2014

Expertise:Intermediate
This is the best cell phone I have ever used. The screen is beautiful to look at. It is big enough, easy to type on, takes great pictures, and is an absolute pleasure to use on a daily basis. I have used iPhone, Windows Phone 8, and Galaxy s3 and this phone is the clear winner out of every other phone I have ever used. More than enough ram and processing power. Battery life lasts all day. Call quality is great. It is not too heavy but also not too light.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, perfect sized display., easy to use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Overall Phone on the Market

I came to be interested in the Galaxy Note 3 as I felt that I needed more productivity options at work. I had purchased an iPad Mini for the same reason; however, I'm usually on the move in my television studio and sometimes don't have it on my persons. Even when I did taking it out and opening up the correct App and starting to 2 finger type became such a process I gave it up all together.
In my business as a producer for sports television specific sequences in games are vital to airing the best content and in a 9 inning baseball game for example getting ideas noted and quickly is essential to our success.
Coming from the Galaxy S4, I already knew I loved the Life Companion features of the device but the Note 3 seemed to include of that in addition to an array of usable software and hardware for professionals and hobbyist alike so I bought it.
Two weeks in I don't know how I've gone so long without it. It is large. This is true and there is no getting around it but Samsung has included a One Hand Operation mode which greatly helps the process at times when its needed. Most of the time the phone is more of a pleasure to use with two hands. I use the S Pen all day everyday. From note taking and diagram creating to simply drawing pictures with my daughters at a restaurant while we wait on our food. If you are a man with medium to large hands or a women who carries a purse, you shouldn't have a problem. This phone is borderline amazing but you have to take the time to discover new features and really play with and enjoy your phone.
Happy Note Taking and remember...Design Your Life. (Not paid by Samsung - Just love the product)

In many ways its better than the newer Samsung models

The greatest feature to me is the removable battery. I have the screen turned down to the lowest setting, WiFi and Bluetooth turned off when I'm not using them, a 4700mAh battery, occasional plugins to power up and I still run out of power in the afternoon. With the removable battery I can swap in a fully charged battery in less than a minute and I'm ready to go until late at night. Yes I know - there are external battery boosters - but they are a waste. If I wanted to go around with my phone plugged into a slow charging power source I could just stay home.
By the way the Note 7 problem might be fixed with a removable battery option. Send me a couple and I'll try it out for you.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Built-in speakers, big screen, expandable
