Went to the AT & T store at lunch and played with a gorgeous white Note 3 - wow - wow - wow!!!! I have been an HTC guy for years, never owned a Samsung - and am not familiar with the Note's ecosytem.....so only a few general observations.......
The screen has to be seen to be believed - vibrant - crisp - bursting with colors and deep contrasts - the phone was surprisingly light and surprisingly thin and felt great in the hand - the faux leather covering was very hard - did not feel like leather but better than the plastic back on the Note 2 - looked to be non-permeable and if smudged seemed it would clean up well (important because it will be my first white phone ) - the system was very snappy - interestingly the small border area between the edge of the screen and the bezeled edge has a small rectangular grid pattern in the background which is very muted - not easily seen in most pictures of the phone I have seen - but is nicely understated a gives the front of the phone a stylish accent.
No stylus was available and as I am not familiar with the UI, I couldn't do much with the many software features but watched a video on you tube and was blown away - blown away - at the quality - interestingly the CSR said she had had little or no foot traffic or interest in the unit yet and this store is in a fairly populated outside shopping mall.
That has to be the most attractive phone....well phablet....I have ever held.......now I just need to be patient waiting for Verizon to release my soon to be new best toy, I mean phone, I mean tablet!!! LOL
