KARAN, 02 May 2013I'm posting here for the first time. So Samsung 5.9 inch s... moreWait until you see the actual footprint of the device. For an instance, Glaxy S4's screen is bigger, but the phone is actually a tad smaller and lighter (check out "dimesions" and "weight" here http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=4238). So actually the Note 3 could be on par with the Note 2, which is my current phone and has a perfectly fine size if you like bigger phones.

        Anonymous, 02 May 20138 cores means battery murder. hahahahahahhaahhahah sil... moreGeez. Stop embarrasing yourself. In case you don't know, all ARM's big.LITTLE architecture used in Exynos 5 Octa chips is about battery saving. Only 4 cores are active at the same time. The "big" A15 ones for high CPU workloads and improved performance and the "LITTLE" A7 cores for low intensity CPU activities and iddle states. Now YOU talk about parroting silly non-arguments based on non-facts. Geezus!

            Insider is completely wrong- octa platform is 4 cores for cpu and four for graphics, total 8.rtfm

              Am I the only one who see that camera reflection on the right phone is from smartphone and on the left phone from real camera? Fake!

                  The two most important things I want are 64gb or 128gb internal storage options and a battery that lasts at least 24 hours of screen on time at full brightness

                      Specs are really imoressive but the design is what put me down.
                      It should be looking like note 2 with the screen size 5.99 inch.

                        AnonD-129591, 02 May 2013If only they could design the Note III body like they did i... moreWhy crap? Because the mobile technology surpassed the hardware of your computer?

                          so is this gonna be another market strategy to get ppl to buy the note 3 like with the s4 cuz they said it will come with octane core but 70% of s4 actually came with SD 600

                            8 CPU cores, 8 GPU cores? Hold on Sammy, it's not about the number of cores, it's the architecture that matters more. How long do you think could normal people be fooled by this stupidity?

                              bobby21, 02 May 20138 cores will remove the lag in android hahahahah8 cores means battery murder.

                              hahahahahahhaahhahah silly samsung fans, prasing the goods, but totally ignoring the bad sides of the products. 8 cores = battery slaughter fest. This is why android phones are so inefficient. It lags, but to compensate for the lag, they increase processing power, however by doing that, means poor battery life as it forces the phone to use more of its of power. lol

                                  Note 1 & 2 were called Phablets due to the screen size but now SG4 joins the same size as Note 2 why call it smart phone. Is samsung thinking customers are fools or they confused. Samsung has just released 15 devices with different screen size with same design language. what are the thinking, definitely they making customers fools. I know a guy who bought Sg3 mini thinking its SG3. Samsung will go down due to their own failing.

But some lag more than others, for example, Android (even on the super Galaxy S4 and HTC One) will always lag 10000x more than the top WP8, BB10, or iOS device (who have less than half it's processing power). So don't leave your statement open ended like "all devices lag" as if they all lag equally
