I have to applaud the lengths to which Samsung has gone to in order to try and make the thing feel useful. This is not a device for people who struggle with applications but for those who love cool devices
Great functionality and apps to kill for this is
5.7” 1080 x 1920 screen in a lightweight
Comfortable body
Snapdragon 800 SoC with 3GB RAM
32GB on-board storage with microSD expansion

The editors didn't like
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)

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...

Great screen, Lots of stylus functionality, Expandable memory
Expensive, Poor low-light camera performance, Complicated to use
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 successfully continues the one Samsung series of phones that no other manufaturer to date has really managed to touch. Stylus phones aren't for everyone, but we have to applaud the lengths to which Samsung has gone to in order to...
