The editors didn't like
Might be big and unwieldy for most
Dated design and choice of material for the sides
Lack of proper scaling in UI
Good software features might get lost in the crowd
Sharp, colorful HD display; Impressive 13megapixel snapper; Great power; SPen plus apps.
Nothing new to shout about; Niche product.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is not a whole new phone, but an upgrade, however its sharp 5.7in HD display, 13MP snapper and great performance all appeal – and the S-Pen and creativity options make it stand out from the crowd...
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...
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...
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...

Abstract: We've had the new Samsung Galaxy Note since Wednesday morning, and we're right in the middle of testing and reviewing, so expect to see our cogent thoughts on Monday. But for now, how about we take a look at one of the really cool features together, namel...
Abstract: The third generation of the phablet is official – unveiled earlier this month at IFA 2013 in Berlin, Samsung's new Galaxy Note 3 phablet is different to pass generations. Whilst in the past, Samsung has introduced a larger version of its Galaxy S flagship...
Abstract: We test a lot of smartphones here at PC Advisor, but recently two have stood out. The Sony Xperia Z1 and the Galaxy Note 3 are both big Android phones that offer stunning performance and excellent displays. They are part of a new breed of phones alongside...
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...

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...
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...
