However, instead of a glossy plastic back, Samsung has given the Note 3 a fake leather back reminiscent of a cheap "pleather" sofa.I wouldn't call that an upgrade. Combined with chromed and ridged plastic edges, it makes the Note 3 feel anything but premium.The samsung galaxy cases is anything but small. A phablet through and through, it has a very large footprint compared to most other smartphones with screens between 4.7 and 5in, and while it's thin at just 8.9mm thick, it certainly feels big in your hand.
The sheer size of the device basically makes one-handed operation impossible. Samsung's given the Note 3 an entire settings menu dedicated to trying to make it easier to use one-handed, but even with my adult male-sized hands it's a struggle to reach even half of the screen without dropping the device.samsung galaxy cases review: bigger, faster and with great battery life, but it's still a phablet.

The samsung galaxy s cases Note 3 is the third iteration of Samsung's popularphablet series that has just become even bigger.With its large 5.7in screen and S Pen stylus, the Note 3 is unashamedly a phablet that will stretch prospective buyers hands and pockets, but provide fast and fluid experience while its at it.Samsung has given the Note 3 a top of the line processor in the form of a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800, and it really shows. The phablet absolutely flies along, with near-instant app loading and no perceptible lag anywhere within the operating system (more on that later).
Even the most graphically intensive games run as smooth as butter, making the Note 3 excellent for gaming, while 3GB of RAM mean it should be up to any sort of multi-tasking you're likely to throw at it.However, like most manufacturers, Samsung chooses to customise the Android experience on its devices. Samsung's modifications are known as TouchWiz, and include things like a custom keyboard, modified settings menus, and a custom home screen.kh2rft3D
Samsung's 'S Pen' stylus also has a high potential for being relegated to just a gimmick. For the most part, there's little you can do with the stylus that you can't with a finger, which is often quicker and more convenient.The Note 3's 'Air command' function brings up a circular quick action menu that allows you to annotate a screenshot, but also provides access to 'Pen Window'.
Some of the drawing and annotation functions within samsung galaxy cases apps such as S Note, SketchBook and Scrapbook could be useful for someone who can draw well, but they're lost on me.On the whole, the stylus doesn't detract from the Note 3's experience, as it slots neatly into the back, but it can often be completely ignored unless you're trying to actually sketch something on-screen.The Note 3 packs the same camera as the Samsung Galaxy S4, which at 13-megapixels produces clean, colourful and sharp images in decent lighting.
In poor lighting, the camera can struggle to focus properly, however, it compares well to most other smartphone cameras and will capture pictures of a similar quality to most dedicated compact cameras.
Samsung's camera software is easy and straightforward to use.Available in black, pink or white, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is a large, flagship phone and therefore commands a premium price. Bought outright, the Note 3 costs £650, which makes it one of the most expensive smartphones available at £100 more expensive than an iPhone 5s and around £230 more than a 5in samsung galaxy cases.
It's also likely be too big for most users looking for a smartphone, who will struggle to fit it in their pockets and will find it near-on impossible to use one-handed. Samsung's i9500 S4 customisations to Android are often gimmicky and confusing, but they can be turned off to save frustration and battery life.Overall, Samsung hopes to continue dominating the phablet category and maintain its 50% market share of a device type that equals tablets and laptops combined in sales in Asia-Pacific. The Note 3 is an improvement on the previous Galaxy Note 2 in every way, and is therefore probably the device to do that.
