Laying Dell's Streak to one side, you
can blame Samsung for starting this
whole VLP™ business with its 5.3-
inch Galaxy Note, which sold in
more-than-decent numbers, as much
to the surprise of its maker as
anyone else, I suspect.
Its successor, the Galaxy Note 2,
upped the stakes by featuring a 5.5-
inch screen and promptly sold in
huge quantities. At the time I called
it the “most complete digital
communications device known to
man”, words I stand by. The moral
here? Bigger, as far as Joe Public is
concerned at least, is quite clearly
better.
So it should come as no surprise
that the new Galaxy Note 3 takes
things a step further, with a 5.7-
inch display, a 2.3GHz quad-core
processor and 3GB of RAM. That’s a
pretty impressive all-round technical
specification but does it make the
Note 3 the daddy of VLPs and, more
to the point, better than the Sony
Xperia Z Ultra? But is it worth twice
the price of its Samsung stablemate,
the Galaxy Mega 6.3?
Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3: even
bigger screen than before – but not
a bigger device
Despite its larger screen, the Note 3
is no wider and even slightly thinner
and lighter than its predecessor.
This is thanks to a thinner bezel
which means more screen in less
chassis. It’s still a bit on the large
size: 151mm tall, 79mm wide and
8.3mm thick. But it’s noticeably
smaller than Sony’s imposing Ultra.
The look
With a certain inevitability, the front
of the Note 3 borrows its design
cues from the Galaxy S4, complete
with chrome-effect speaker grille and
silver-edged physical home button.
Around the edge is a faux-chrome
plastic band which looks just a little
tacky to my eyes. At the top you’ll
find a 3.5mm headphone jack while
the bottom edge houses a USB 3.0
power and data port, a solitary
speaker and the stylus slot.
The faux leather back will fool no
one
Tucked into the sides are the
volume and power buttons but these
aren’t as cleverly placed as those on
the Z Ultra. The volume rocker is too
high to be easily accessible by either
thumb or finger no matter which
hand you’re holding the device in.
The glossy hyperglaze back of the
Note 2 has been replaced with a
leather-effect, but still plastic, cover.
Make no mistake: it doesn’t feel like
leather, though the rubbery texture
and fake stitching may fool some folk
at first glance. It does make the
Note 3 easier to hold than the Note
2 or the Z Ultra, though. But since
most Note users seem to swap the
standard back panel for a flip cover,
this change really makes no odds.
The Note 3’s 5.7-inch display boasts
a 1920 x 1080 resolution which is
the same as the Galaxy S4 and the
Xperia Z Ultra. Given that the Note
3’s screen is larger than the former
but smaller than the latter, it has a
higher pixel density (386dpi) than
the Ultra (344dpi) but a lower one
than the S4 (441dpi). The naked eye
really can’t tell the difference,
though, with even tiny web page text
rendering pin-sharp.
It’s a Note so it comes with a stylus
Videos and images look bold and
vivid on the Note 3’s screen thanks
to the rich colours and deep blacks
of the “Super AMOLED” OLED display
Samsung has used. It’s extremely
bright and rather garish – at times
too garish, which can make some
content look over-saturated. There
are various screen modes you can
choose from to tone things down –
though I have to say I prefer the
more natural hues of the Z Ultra’s
screen.
The Note 3 runs the latest version of
Android, 4.3 Jelly Bean. On top of
that is Samsung’s TouchWiz overlay,
which adds a plethora of extra
functions – not least support for the
very handy S Pen stylus and the
option to run certain apps in
windows.
You also get Air gestures, which
allows you to swipe above the screen
to scroll through images without
touching the phablet and the same
eye-tracking technology from the S4
that will pause video when you look
away from the screen. They’re all
features that are fun to play with
once or twice but some are not
really much more than clever and
occasional diversions.
