Dated design and choice of material for the sides
Lack of proper scaling in UI
Good software features might get lost in the crowd
Abstract: Nokia has just announced its biggest Windows Phone 8 device yet: the six-inch Lumia 1520. How does it compare to Samsung's Galaxy Note 3, one of the most popular ‘phablets' of the moment? NOTE: This comparison review is based on the specifications of the...
Samsung refines its top-tier phablet with the 5.7-inch Galaxy Note 3, a powerful, full HD phone/tablet combo that may be the only mobile device you need....

Abstract: Phablets bridge the gap between phones and tablets. They can make calls and access the internet via a mobile network, but they also have screens that are big enough (just about) to allow you to use them like a tablet. The form factor has already overtaken...
Impressive though it undoubtedly is, the new Note 3 doesn't eclipse the Sony Xperia Z Ultra. The Ultra's screen is larger and more natural in hue; Sony's tweaked version of Android is a darned sight less confusing than Samsung's; the bespoke Sony media a...
Massive, stunning 1080p display, Lighter and faster than before, Dizzying array of software enhancements
Some software enhancements are dubious, Like all phablets, it's huge
Should you get a phone or a phablet? Samsung isn't making the decision easy, thanks to its sheer number of available devices with all manner of screen sizes. For example, the Samsung Galaxy Mega (which we'll have a review of very soon) steps up to an eve...

Powerful, very fast, lots of storage, bursting with features, decent cameras, useful S Pen
Mostly aesthetic: frustrating and clumsy Touchwiz user interface, ugly faux leather backplate, cheap-looking design
This super-fast device is Samsung's lightest and thinnest Note so far. While its design lets the Galaxy Note 3 down, the device is loaded with plenty of business features, and is great for multitasking and heavy workloads....

Too big for most pockets perhaps, not everyone likes the stylus
It's big, but it's beautifully formed, and delivers excellent performance and a world-leading screen. The camera is pretty good too but it's the S-Pen that really sells the Note series, and the new version is ace. View Gallery 6 items Spec...

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...
