  • Powerful innards gobble up Android, Your eyes will appreciate the big screen, S Pen is finally very useful
  • Still too big for constant one-handed use, Design and build could be more premium
  • Put simply, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is the best phablet in the world right now. Its glorious 5.7in screen pumps out crisp detail and punchy colours while still remaining pretty portable, at least compared to the gargantuan 6.4in Sony Xperia Z Ultra. I...

  • The main thing that gets me is how it doesn't seem huge anymore, the Note 3 just seems like a large phone, although thats probably because I have been using some 6″+ devices recently. The other thing that gets me with the Note 3 is the spec list, it is wa...

  • Gorgeous screen (especially in Movie mode), Even more possibilities for the stylus than before, Ridiculously responsive, Great media player, USB 3.0 for transfers
  • Mediocre camera in low lighting, Speakers: low volume/quality
  • The Galaxy Note 3 is a worthy inheritor of the GS4's awesome power and capabilities. It's the ideal follow-up to the Galaxy Note 2 and, while it doesn't revolutionise the genre, it refines a number of its predecessor's best features, exhibits fluidity rar...

  • Staggering screen, awesome engine, cracking camera, big battery.
  • Ugly design on phone rear and most of the S Pen stylus features are pointless
  • It's a very, very high end phone indeed but it doesn't quite accomplish what it sets out to do....
