I got my Note 3 yesterday from Best Buy and I have to say I'm very impressed. I'm coming from a S4 and the difference in speed on this compared to the Note 2 and S4 is so much better. I haven't seen no lag at all. Very fluid and smooth in my opinion. This screen is better than my S4 also. At first I wasn't to excited about getting the Note 3 because I had the S4. But I must say now that I have it....I'm SOO glad I got now.

I have one and love it. Much nicer in hand then the 2. Thinner,, less bezel, much easier to use with one hand without the special one hand features. It is so fast. The Sprint sales rep could not believe how fast it was.

Got mine yesterday and I am very pleased. I came from an S4 and as a woman was very concerned about the size. However, the benefits completely trump and of my concerns. Typing on this phone is so much better than on my s4. The speed is much improved and I'm loving the screen. It's absolutely beautiful. I also love the new pen features and the s-pen apps. I also have a note 8 which this will replace.

I've had the Note 2 for a year and am very interested in getting the Note 3. Went to Sprint yesterday and played with the Note 3. Love the AMOLED screen and how sharp it is. For those who have both phones, would you list what you like better in the N3, especially new features? Regrettably, I am not eligible for an upgrade until next July but might just purchase it outright. Thanks.

I like this better then my note 2 because it is thinner,, sleeker, much easier to use one handed. Better resolution, sound,,, very fast. This phone is greased lighting.

What about the rotation problem? Did they fix it? My N2 is always stuck when I try to turn it horizontal.
I got mine yesterday. I've been enjoying it. When you're using it heavily, the battery can drain faster than you might think. I dumped 20% of my battery in an hour last night while installing apps over wifi, configuring settings, trying out apps. trying out a movie and just getting to know it and finish the setup. BUt today, in medium use out and about, only a few short calls, 15% battery over 7 hours.
The screen is quite nice. good brightness. Setting it to Movie helps with the color. I've not noticed the white level to be pink, green or blue as is sometimes commented for AMOLED, but I've not had it side by side with other options for comparison.
It's been very fast, nothing lagging yet. At home, the reception is poor. I knew it would be and its true of Verizon, AT&T and T-mobile. They all suck in my neighborhood. Out and about today, the reception has been good (T-mobile). My wifi connections have all been good. Using it as a phone, it's a little long maybe. I think this is one reason it has microphones all over the sides to try and pickup the users voice from different sized heads. I don't have enough experience with it yet to tell if it might be a little weak picking up my voice in conversations, but a conversation today made me wonder a bit.
I've disabled some apps, but not as many as I'd like to. I'm glad they allow you to disable much of the bloat. The Watch On service works well and as a remote it even works with my oddball rebadged Dish OTA tuner. That's only ever worked with it's own remote before, even learning remotes have refused to learn it. The DVD part of the remote has been a little wonky. I probably need to reprogram that .
No problems with my Ultra Sandisk uSD card. Yet. You can access it with the battery installed which is nice. You have to push it in further than it seemed to me at first for it to be fully inserted. That caused me a little confusion. It read a larger music list from the card instantly to my eyes. The volume range is better than my Galaxy Nexus for media playback, external speaker, and for the earpiece when used as a phone. The external speaker isn't bad really, at least not like the reviews led me to think. I don't have the exposure to the range of phones to compare against like the reviewers do, but for what I've experienced its' OK. It's easy to cover the speaker with your thumb while you're holding it, but that's easy to avoid.
I've done very little with the S pen. I've sort of enjoyed using it as just a stylus in the old Palm PDA style which I used for a number of years. My effort at handwriting recognition failed utterly, but I've probably got to learn the whole S pen environment anyway. I don't blame the Note 3 for that failure yet.
This is my first exposure to Touchwiz. There's a lot of bloat. I miss the total control of a rooted vanilla android installation. I miss the recent apps list and the menu button on screen. I think the menu button instead of the recent apps was a mistake in interface. The menu key should light up if there's a menu option so you know you have some more choices at least.
Signing in to my accounts for Dropbox and Evernote automatically gave me my Samsung bonuses. That was easy and nice.
I need to dig a little deeper to optimize my experience with the phone but I'm enjoying it.
My Spigen Crystal screen protectors came today. I haven't installed one yet to see how the touch and spen work with those.

Never had that problem with my note 2, in fact that phone was the only smartphone I ever had with no problems at all. That baby was solid for me.
THE BEAST,,NOTE 3. SIZE IS EVERYTHING!!!
I had the original Note and had to hear the raves about the Note 2, I bought the Note 10.1 to ease the pain. Thank heaven I was eligible to get the Note 3! Keep in the back of your mind that if you wait until you are eligible, you might be able to chose a Note 4! Maybe you can get the Note 10.1 2014 to play with until the Note 4 comes out.
I love this phone, Ive had Galaxy one, 2,3,4 now the note 3 ive had htc evo,evo 3d and moto photon, and iphone 4,4s,5 THIS PHONE is by far the best phone ive had. Thought yes its a big phone its a phenomenal phone very innovative in its own kind. Its super fast responsive.
Yeah, I got a 20% discount at At&t for being a full-time student & traded in my 4S (received $200). The Note 3 was the cheapest phone I ever bought in life.
I completely agree with you. I was also hesitant to get it because of the size and the weight. But after getting it got used to in 24 hours the screen is awesome and the speed is unbelievable. Makes multi tasking so smooth. I am really happy with the design as well and size is not a bother at all. Plus I think design wise it's much better then the note 2 which looked like a dummy phone to me.
