review of samsung galaxy note 3, now in canada (with video) - tablets you can draw on

Samsung's new Galaxy Note 3 will be available in Canada on Friday, marking the third-generation launch of the product, which many predict will not survive after its launch.
When Samsung launched the Galaxy Note two years ago, skeptics sneered and guessed it was --
This will lead to a downturn in sales.
"A strange device" "you look stupid talking on it, people will laugh at you and you will not be happy if you buy it.
"But does it have a market ? "
"At the time, I carried a Samsung Note with me as a demo and people would laugh if I lifted it up to answer the phone.
But Samsung ended with a 38 million increase in sales of its original Note and its successor, Note II, and now launched Note II's successor, Note 3.
This is the first of a new class of mobile devices-both phones and tablets are integrated into one --
Created a tablet.
Note 3's early comments did not share the doubts surrounding the original Note release.
"The most powerful Android smartphone in the world is better ".
"The new Note 3 will be available in Canada via wireless carriers this Friday.
Prices have not been announced yet, but MobileSyrup reports on a Bell document that lists twice the $800 contract-free price and $300year contract. From Oct.
Buyers of the Note 3 can add Samsung's new Galaxy Gear smartwatch, released at the same time, at a price below the normal price of $100, which is rumored to be $300. So with a two-
A one-year contract of $500 will provide you with the Note 3 and Galaxy Gear smartwatch.
I met Ken Price, Samsung's Canadian marketing director.
Through the new notes, this is the video of our chat. (function(){pnShowVideo("43YmZlZjrx-

After Ken's demo, I have to make a demo Note 3 and try it out in daily use.
Here are some of my first impressions.
What will be the difference in size, screen and S Pen in a few years.
I turned my head when I took out the original note in the coffee shop, but when I took the new Note 3-which 5. 7-
The inch screen is bigger than the original 5 pieces. 3-
Almost no one noticed.
It's not surprising because a lot of people are now carrying the Galaxy S4 smartphone with less than 5-inches.
But when I turned it on, there was some appreciation for the brightness of the display, a Super AMOLED 1080 of the pixel screen by 1920 with a pixel density of 386.
The pictures look rich and the text is clear-this is a simple screen on the eyes and your photos look great.
Same resolution as Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone.
4-Apple's new iPhone 5S
Inch, resolution 1136 by 640, pixel density 226 ppi. Size-
Smart, like its predecessor, it doesn't slip away from the pocket, however, I find that I often have to put my iPhone in my wallet, because it's easy for me to get it out of my pocket.
Samsung still has a simple snapshot
Once turned off, you have access to the battery, SIM card, and memory card-another advantage that can enhance memory with microSD up to 64 gb.
The rear panel is leather-
Like a surface that is easy to catch, there are black, white and pink.
Samsung has stepped up the use of S-Pen stylus.
This is the key to making the Galaxy Note 3 a useful full device.
This covers all the basics if you don't want to carry tablets and smartphones.
I mostly use headphones when I'm on the phone, although speaking on this oversized smartphone won't cause as many eyebrows as the notes a few years ago.
You can hover the S Pen over the screen for different options, including the operation memo, scrap bookers, screen write, search, and Pen Window.
If you click on the pen window, as I have done in these photos above, you can use the stylus to open a sub-window with some of your most commonly used apps.
You can also use the stylus to capture and copy, just like my YouTube video at the UBC e-health office.
Just stroke this quick circle with S and I can put the video on the scrapbook to share and save it in Evernote or one of many other options.
I found this stylus useful for interview notes.
Note 3 is a multi-function host.
You can run many apps at the same time, although Ars Technica has called for Samsung for artificially increasing the benchmark score for Note 3.
It has a 13-pixel rear camera with image stability, it takes video at 4 k resolution for $800 without a wireless contract subsidy, if you already have a smartphone, but for those looking for a combination of smartphones/tablets-I met a lot of smartphone buyers who chose banknotes for the first time-$300 two
Note 3 is an option that can be considered.
