I'm pretty excited for the Note 3. I'm hoping for an improvement in outdoor use with the screen and better battery life. That's all I care about.

Not sure

But I'll have plenty of time to read about it on other carriers before my carrier ( Verizon ) gets it.

will the note 3 be $299 on contract at release? I remember the Note 2 was more expensive then the S3 or S4...

Seriously with each passing rumor the phone just seems more and more appealing. I wonder what they're going announce it can do next:D.

32GB minimum so now there's no two ways about it. Gonna have to put a new iPad on the back burner for a few months so i can purchase this beast.

Starting to be tempted, especially given the 5S innovations this year (finger print scanner and gold colour) just don't interest me. I want to use up my cell upgrade so will consider it.

I can see much use out of that.

Motorola first tried that with the original Atrix. Beats entering a code but yet still retaining security.

The Gold colour option? No...just no.


Yeah it's like Apple just had a taste bypass what with iOS7 pastels and now a gold iPhone ?

Apple used to be about ageless design, these two things are going to look really out of date in 18 months time...

Ha, IOS 7 pastels and a golden iPhone are a "great" combo, the new pimp style :eek:

Sounds like a plan! Seriously phones are getting so high tech. There's really no need to upgrade every year.

So true 3gb of ram in a phone (that's like my first computer) their really isn't such a need to upgrade every year. From those leaked pictures it seems quality will improve however.

I don't think so.why do you think that ?

thought not just wanted to double check. Would be good to know I could just swap over my S4 sim and put it in the note 3 without having to ask my carrier for a new sim.

exciting to think of a 5.7 inch phone with a full HD screen like the S4.. will be beautiful.
