I'm due an upgrade and I currently have a rooted S3. I like the size of the the Note but if the S3 has more or better features I'd rather just get it. So what are yalls thoughts?
 
I just switched from a note 3 to an S5. The note 3 is ok. The S5 is by far the greatest phone ive ever used.

I would wait til Samsung announces the Note 4, I just got the S5 and it's an amazing device.

Unless you want the S-Pen and a bigger screen S5 easily wins this match up.

Pro S5
 
Wait for the Note 4 or you'll kick yourself. While the S5 would be a great upgrade from your S3, I think the Note 4 will run circles around the S5.
 
It depends on whether you want a phone or a phablet. I absolutely love my S5 and highly recommend it, but you've got to be the one to decide which will better suit your needs. If it's a phone, buy the S5. If it's a phablet, wait for the Note 4.

Good luck.
 
I had the same problem back in April and went with the s5...
The note 3 is a great phone and I did regret my choice at first... Now I love my s5 on Verizon (since towelroot made root available)... So my vote is the s5
 
S5 is the better over all phone but I would go with the note for the pen.

S5 hands down. It's a better every day driver than the note in my opinion. Guess it depends on what you are using it for mostly.

I'd try and wait for the Note 4 as it will have all the features of the S5 plus more. Otherwise I'm a note person so I'd take the note 3 over the S5.

I just made the switch from Blackberry and I was going back and forth between the S5 Active and the Note 3. I ended up going with the S5 Acitve because the Note 3 seemed pretty big and I felt like the pen would only be used til the novelty wore off.

JMHO.
 
I just made this choice this past weekend. Also coming from an S3. I chose the S5.

The Note 3 screen would be nice when sitting down to use the phone for an extended period, but a big drawback for general phone uses while on the go. Plus the fake stitching on it looks atrocious.

The size and clarity of the S5 screen is a noticeable step up from the S3.
