The editors didn't like

Some S Pen functions questionable
Rear camera gets in the way of notebook
Soso battery life
Expensive
Weak speaker

Limited apps support with Air View
Gestures
Etc
Tough to see in sun
Autobrightness is slow
UI can be buggy and may be too large for some
Simpler navigation (interface functions occasionally overwhelming)
Back cover plastic material catches on items
Better handwritten note recognition/transfer to text
Particularly paper and especially in pant pockets
noise cancelling capabili
Battery life should be higher
On par with expectations
Night capture is poor
S Note doesn't bring new features
The Samsung Hub is useless
There's no optical stabilization
No FM radio
Disappointing battery life
A Menu button. This hides all the overflow menus you should normally see and is terrible for discoverability
TouchWiz still looks and functions like Android 2.3. You can't horizontally swipe between tabs
There are hidden menu
The Note 3 is expensive
Large
And its faux-leather styling is crafted from cheap plastic
Bundled with Samsung's own apps and extra features that you may never use
Same plasticky chassis as its predecessors
This is a very large phone! Samsung's software runs to excess
Not one-hand-friendly
Aggressive crapware
Inconsistent LTE performance
Somewhat Pricey
Not "Pure" Android
Screen Somewhat Over-Saturated
No Spark compatibility
Small LTE network
AMOLED issues
Build quality still lacking
TouchWiz is still awful
Buggy
Large size cumbersome for smaller hands
Like all phablets
It's huge. Dizzying array of software enhancements
Some of which are dubious
Audio could be better
Design not one-hand friendly
Relatively expensive
Frustrating and clumsy Touchwiz user interface
Still too big for many people
Improved S Pen software still lacks many logical features
TouchWiz is an acquired taste
Potentially confusing array of UI enhancements and software extras
Cheesy fauxleather backplate
TouchWiz is still overwrought
UI doesn't make maximum use of screen resolution
Performance hiccups in Exynos version give us pause
May be too large for some
TouchWiz could stand a refresh
The display dpi setting could be lower
Fauxleather design makes the device look like a cheap knockoff. Software is bloated
Visually unpleasant and filled with gimmicks. As LCDs advance
AMOLEDs are being left behind.
Rather expensive
Some SD cards incompatible
Still lacks high-end finish
Poor loudspeaker
