How insanely fast this thing charges. This is a HUGE feature for me. Anything else that you love but isn't getting talked about?
 
I think one review could just cover multi-tasking at length. I had no idea how much could run without even a whimper. I only hope some of that ability comes via an update to my Note 10.1.
 
So far I haven't noticed a big difference between the two and three.

Multi tasking, I'm getting about 30 mins for about 15 percent.

I did notice the 3 had more battery left during the idle night.

I like the multi window feature where another window opens up under the original one. Also in call window when a new call comes it pops ups under the app you are in.

Is that a setting in the phone? How do you enable the call pop up while in an app?

I find that the note 3 charges at 1.2 amps whereas the Note 2 changed at about 1.8 amps. I used the galaxy charging current app. Can anyone else confirm?

Go to call settings and activate incoming calls settings. Whenever a call comes a small screen will open up showing who is calling. Very unobtrusive. As I work on the note a lot it's a good way to show up instead of the whole screen showing a call is coming.

Do you have to use the new 3.0 cable for the fast charge (from the wall I mean), or did it also charge as fast with the old 2.0 cables?

You have to use a USB 3.0 cable because the faster charging is made possible by the extra pins in USB 3.0. No extra pins, no quick charging.
 
Charging from laptop takes forever but when using the wall charger it is lightning fast.:)

Using the stock cable and charger? That's odd.
 
I got on Ebay and bought TWO USB 3.0 charging cables. I bought them just for the fact of quick charging !
Both were only $7 with Shipping ! Now I have one for the car- office and home ! :D

I can't wait for the external/desktop charger comes out ! I hate plugging my phone in all together !
