  • Crisp, bold screen; Very powerful; Stylus is great for writing notes; Attractive design; Good camera
  • Enormous size will be cumbersome for most; Expensive; Camera doesn't impress in low light; Vast amounts of settings will be confusing for Android novices
  • Its huge 5.7-inch size means the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 really won't be to everyone's taste. If you're after a big screen, however, and a phenomenally powerful phone to help tackle anything your working life is likely to throw at it -- and you fancy hand-w...

  • Great battery life, Excellent screen, Top-notch specs and performance, More premium look and feel than previous Notes, Runs Android 4.3, the newest version
  • S Pen still doesn't feel like a must-have feature, Abundance of added features will be overwhelming for many, Poor speaker placement
  • For power users looking for a big-screen phone to help manage their hectic lives, the Galaxy Note 3 is a no-brainer, especially if you like the idea of using a stylus for jotting down notes. And even if you don't use the S Pen, the device still delivers...

  • The Note 3 seems like a great device, so far I've found nothing wrong. So much so that I really struggled to complete the “bad points” section at the top of the article. I'm basically going to be spending the next few weeks testing out all of the differen...

  • Improved looks, Hugely powerful, 4K video looks epic, Improved camera over Note 2, Beautiful screen, New S Pen functionality,
  • Some will find it too big, SIM lock might be a problem, Handwriting recognition failure bug
  • There are a few little things about the Note 3 that we think require some attention, such as photo processing and possible concern over SIM region-locking. These feel like software issues though, and that gives us some hope that they might be fixed at som...

  • We're not sure you need all the extra features that Samsung packs in, and we could live without the S Pen. And the 5.7in display will appeal only to those who especially want a large-screen phone. Neither is the camera all that great. But be in no doubt a...

  • Crisp and vibrant HD screen; Smart 13megapixel camera; Incredible power; SPen and apps
  • No stunning new features; Niche product
  • Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3 is an increment of the original and still one of the best phablets around. It may not offer a huge bag of new and exciting tricks, but its impressive power, even more spacious high-res screen and upgraded 13-megapixel camera make i...

  • Abstract:  And with the Galaxy Note 3 it's on, as the name implies, its third generation of a product that attempts to make pen and paper redundant – I really liked the Note 2, and the Note 3 is even better.It continues to do all the things that many users would e...
