Improvement over Galaxy Note 2

The Device is smaller in size and has less weight than in predecessor Samsung Galaxy Note 2, but has bigger screen. Its width is same, but the length and thickness has been reduced.

The S Pen stylus is much improved compared to its predecessors with more functionalities adding to the overall user experience. It has a button that opens up the S Pen menu that allows you to find objects, write memos, copy data etc.

The device would be available in Retail Stores by September 25, but is available for sale in Flipkart.

 

User Reviews on Web suggest that the Battery Backup  has improved compared to earlier phones, though any such opinion can be validated only after the usage of at least one month.

The Galaxy Note 3’s design was intended to carry a more upscale, “premium” look in comparison to previous Samsung devices. Although it carries a similarly polycarbonate-oriented design to other recent Samsung devices, the Galaxy Note 3 has a faux metallic bezel and a rear cover made of plastic leather with faux stitching. With a thickness of 8.3 mm (0.33 in), it is slightly thinner than the Galaxy Note II, and is also slightly lighter as well.  The Galaxy Note 3 is also the first smartphone to include support for USB 3.0, which enables faster data transfers and charging when attached to a compatible port.
