The ridiculous number of features and the $999 price tag mean this is a serious invest and what I would have liked is a free cover to hide the plastic back

Screen DPI set too high
Fonts and icons are too large
Notification UI is a mess and needs to be fixed
Samsung's Android customisations may delay updates
Price compared to the competition
Many TouchWIZ features are gimmicks
Gallery app is sluggish
Tricky to hold
Expensive
S Pen still limited
Tacky plastic rear
TouchWiz needs a refresh. High price
More plastic casing
Even if it does have a nicer back than other Galaxy devices
Features the same bugs and crashes from this year's Galaxy-based smartphones in the Australian region (sigh)
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...
Samsung currently run Android 4.3 on the Galaxy Note 3. Over the air updates are available and can be saved to install at a time convenient to the user. Earlier we noted the presence of 16-64GB of storage and this handset is the 32GB version split so tha...
Abstract: Samsung secured a lead in the plus-sized device space when it released its first Galaxy Note smartphone in 2011. Following the Note's release the market's evolved and, 5in or 6in devices that blur the line between smartphones and tablets have become all t...
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...
There's no question that Samsung's Galaxy Note is big, but despite its huge size, it actually feels a lot slimmer than the previous version. Samsung's reduced the bezels on the latest version of the Note, so that despite a larger 5.7-inch screen, the footprint remains almost identical - and it still measures up at just a slim 8mm thick. Despite its size, it doesn't feel hefty at all, although it'
Samsung phones are often derided for their plastic construction - it may be more durable than a HTC One Max or an iPhone 5s but pretty it is not. To make matters worse, the glossy back cover is gone: instead, there's a dire faux-leather back piece that gives you a little bit more grip, but still feels cheap - especially when you're peeling it off to insert your microSD or SIM card. The phone's ov
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is unashamedly huge, and Samsung's proud of that fact. The South Korean company has taken its previous model, which was excellent, and has refined it even more, stuffing in even more power to produce a blazing fast phone that ...
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...

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...
