GOT IT!!! - Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Doesn't seem to matter what phone I've had, iPhone 4, 4s, S3, S4, N3, Nokia they ALL gave me bad signal inside buildings. Haven't noticed any lag on my N3 yet. Too many buttons?! One for one vs. the iPhone. I can see the size being a factor and liking iOS better but the other factors aren't really factors when they're across the board.

The only phones that have good signal inside places seems to be Motorola, they have always been fantastic phones.

They've always had excellent radios. Makes sense seeing as they invented the cell phone lol
iPhones seem to be pretty bad in that regard

Now now. Both my 5s' do just fine indoors as well as underground on the Metro subway.

My sister's 5 always has a few bars less than my S4, and Samsung isn't known for having good radios.

There are many variables, but I will say that my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II performed better than my Verizon Droid razr maxx especially in very low /weak signal areas. People keep saying how Motorola has the best radio, but this was not my experience.

Well I can't say I have experienced lag on the Note 3 even more so that I have rooted and removed The Samsung Apps I have no interest in.
To many buttons are you referring to the physical as that doesn't make sense there is only the home, power and volume, the IPhone has the same. Must be referring to settings etc.
I won't take anything away from Apple in terms of design and build quality.
But I am to attached to open source and the screen size is to small.
I do see apple bumping it up to 4.7" this year or maybe two options this and 5" and that and Ios tweaks will be quite something. But I like Android to much.
But you like what you like and that is cool. I would of given it more of a try though if I was in a vice versa I wouldn't be able to make that fast assessment but that's just me.
Bye bye android and welcome back ios lol congrats though enjoy your 5s again.

Gator...be nice. Android is quite a different snake. He's used to iOS and there's nothing wrong him liking that bird. Heck, I like iOS myself.

LOL, I was being nice! I wasn't digging at the guy. I was just making fun of the 50% wonkiness of the finger print scanner....that's all!
Besides, the S5 has one too and I bet it's just as worthless!

My 5s' fingerprint scanner works all the time for me. It's very reliable and super convenient.

Haha Yeh well from what I have seen from youtube videos the S5's scanner you must use it in a certain way using all of the finger to swipe down.
These scanners have been around and have failed. Now iris scanning that's another level but obviously Samsung is not quite there yet if that will ever materialise.
I'm more for the design and functionality with that one or maybe two little unique features, practicality and usefulness of the device.

iOS and Android are two very different beasts. I had a Ipod touch that I got back before having a smartphone. I can't stand iOS and actually traded it in with my last phone when I got my note 3 on Friday. Nothing wrong with ios but I love Android. I am quite happy with the note 3 so far. My reception is on par with my RAZR Maxx I just got rid of. I think the calls are clearer and this baby is fast. No lags but coming from my maxx which was lag city this baby just flies. Battery life is great. The way it conserves when in standby is awesome. I am really looking forward to seeing what this baby can do as I use it more. So far A+.

If I was given an Iphone FOC, I`d sell it ..just not on par at all to my Note 3.My wife bought me the latest Ipod for Christmas mainly to use with my Pioneer Headunit in my car and I just can`t get used to IOS7 at all....its just not easy to use and is too restrictive as regards pairing via bluetooth with anything other than Apple devices whereas my Note3,S3 and HTC One will connect to and play virtually any video or music format...Android FTW!
My smartphone NEEDS are simple. As long as I have polish in my apps I'm pretty set. Been there and done that with the customizing-the-phone thing.
