Not only with the S Pen stands the Galaxy Note 3 competition from . (Photo: kwe) Sunday 13 October 2013
Samsung has packed the Galaxy Note 3 to the synthetic leather with fine edge technology and features. All just bravado or the giant smartphone is as good as its specs suggest?
It’s amazing that it’s Samsung succeeded in its Galaxy Note in the third generation to incorporate an even larger display and at the same time to reduce the housing. Thus, the smartphone measures 8.3 mm x 5.9-inch screen, in spite of only 151.2 x 79.2. Also the weight of the Galaxy Note 3 is 168 grams with exceptionally low for a device this size, its predecessor brings twelve grams on the scales.
The slender frame of the Galaxy Note 3 is plastic, the keys of metal . (Photo: kwe) course, this Samsung has again achieved through massive use of plastic, but it plays in the quality of workmanship that has the smartphone, no role at all. The Galaxy Note 3 despite its relatively slim body and light weight in hand a very solid impression. The chrome-colored frame is so stable that you could actually keep it for metal and between the bezel and the screen, there is not the slightest gap in which could get stuck with the time, dust and dirt. The same goes for home button and speaker. Especially pleasant fall the big buttons on the sides, which are really made of metal and have very well dosed pressure points.
USB 3.0 input on the bottom
On the bottom are the most striking features of the Galaxy Note 3: a large micro-USB 3.0 input and the slot for the S Pen are also housed there the microphone and unfortunately somewhat undersized unit’s speakers. Also on the top there is next to the speaker jack and the hands-free microphone is an interesting detail: an infrared interface, which makes the score 3 including a universal TV remote control

Especially with white note 3 is the . leatherette seam taste (Photo: kwe) The back is usual with Samsung’s smartphones from a thin polycarbonate cover that you can pull to insert SIM and microSD card or to replace the battery. The cover fits well to the big camera unit fixed and does not creak, so there is nothing wrong with it. During the week-long test run around but some dust has accumulated under the cover. Presumably he penetrates to the generous openings for USB port and an S Pen.
is positive that Samsung elected this time not a smooth, greasy surface, but has given the battery cover has a grippy, much more comfortable leather surface. However, the imitation seam fringing the back is a matter of taste.
Superb display in the right frame
From the front, the Galaxy Note 3 but without a doubt a gem. The display occupies almost the entire space, especially on the left side, Samsung has only a very narrow frame. Also below the screen Samsung has wasted no place more than the home button and two sensor buttons (menu and back) you would have there can hardly accommodate. The display itself could hardly be better. It solves razor sharp on, offers the typical AMOLED crisp colors and contrasts can shine bright and is easily readable even in extreme angles.
The USB 3.0 port divided into two parts, one can also infect conventional micro-USB cable . (Photo: kwe) worry, it could not be anything about running on the device, buyers do not need to make. In Note 3 lies a Snapdragon 800, the four cores can expect up to 2.3 GHz fast. The Qualcomm chip can access to a whopping three gigabytes of memory. At the end of the test week, the battery has shown great after a few charging cycles that 3000 mAh bring a workhorse like the Galaxy Note 3 loose throughout the day. That the USB 3 connector is not a PR stunt, you realize at the latest, if you transfer a lot of pictures or videos on a computer with the appropriate connector: it is much faster than with USB 2.0

camera takes 360 degree photos
The 13-megapixel camera on the back part of the smartphone class, although it works only conditionally sensor in 4:3 format with 13 megapixels. In 16:9 the images have “only” 9.6 megapixels. The camera focuses extremely fast and delivers in all light conditions at least good results – especially when using the HDR mode. However, muddying details in the distance a little. The photo light is very strong, but not too flash on close objects.
The camera app of grade 3 offers even more features than the Galaxy S4. Thus, the smartphone also take 360-degree panoramic images (Sphere photos) and capture the “golf mode” movements.
With HDR, the camera takes the dusk . Day (Photo: kwe) Although
Galaxy Note 3 is able to record video with 3840 x 2160 pixels, but who has no 4K TV that can safely dispense with the prestigious setting and shoot Full HD. Interestingly, the slow-motion feature, where the camera as iPhone 5S makes 120 frames per second. Time-lapse recordings dominated the Grade 3 also. The focus works very quickly even with videos and photographs are usually well exposed.
course, the Grade 3 also dominates the sometimes very practical, occasionally rather superfluous gestures or eye control, which has already been used with Samsung Galaxy S4. There are no other functions are actually added. When multi-window, in which two apps appear next to or above each other on the screen, but has done something: You can now share files between several apps via drag and drop. Another new feature is that one can draw from the bottom of the screen upwards Samsung flashing Feed counterpart “MyMagazine” with information from different areas.
to a second security system
the Grade 3 also works for the first time Samsung’s new security system, “Knox”, in which a second password protected Android system running in parallel. An exchange between the systems is excluded, only the contacts may be shared. But you can also use a separate Exchange account.
For Knox must apps from the Load Samsung Store . (Photo: kwe) In principle, the system is likely to be a big improvement, especially in the private and professional use of smartphones. Knox could cause starting problems but that it is based on Security Enhanced Android (SE Android), which was developed by the U.S. National Security Agency NSA.
addition to encryption of your device and delete remotely offers the Galaxy Note 3, another feature that is at a loss of the device protecting the personal data of the user: the reactivation lock. This smartphone is additionally secured with a Samsung account. Without access to the device even if a thief can not reactivate if he has been reset to the factory settings.
S Pen immediately ready
Samsung has the S Pen Control by skillfully developed for its new touch smartphone and made a bit more sophisticated. Minor teething has eliminated in the first week of October, a software update. When Galaxy Note 3, a small, round selection widget opens with a selection of five main S-Pen commands when you pull the pin from the device. Optionally, you can also start it by holding the S Pen on the screen and presses its function key.
“S Pen” window can be anywhere on the screen, draw a rectangle, which opens a window in which multiple apps can be opened. It minimizes the window, the app remains as an icon in the foreground on the display. You can store as many S-Pen window.
As soon as the S Pen from the device pulls, restarts the selection . (Photo: kwe) by “S Finder” open to the universal search on the device, where you can try equal to the input via handwriting. By taping the Samsung keypad on the bottom left of the button changes the pencil icon. Even easier: you have to hold the pen just above the input field and then tap the icon writing. Then you can enter text, symbols or formulas. The handwriting also works with e-mails or SMS outstanding.
Gather information made easy
“Screenshot-note” does exactly what you expect. This will create a screenshot, the label can be and then save or send. Especially clever is “Scrapbooker”. So you can save on websites or in Youtube articles, images or videos including metadata in the appropriate Scrapbook App. If you call them on there, for example, to run images of the website from which they were taken, videos can be played directly in the scrapbook. Also in Google Maps or products in online stores you can save as – but not from apps out

As for features, performance and display, there is no other smartphone that could surpass the Galaxy Note 3rd Its functionality and the now very sophisticated pen operation unmatched by any phablet even close. Perhaps the new HTC One Max with its stylish aluminum dress poach a few buyers, but currently is the Galaxy Note 3 unrivaled in its class. However, this has its price, currently costs the device is still around 700 euros.
