I used a spare glass sp I had for my note2. Covers the entire display area nicely.

QUOTE(Positron @ Sep 28 2013, 06:43 AM)
Hello everybody, I just bought the note 3 yesterday and after about a days usage here are my thoughts about it..
Firstly, I had high expectations for this phone.
Unfortunately,the battery life on this phone is so bad..
I started of at 100% and now its 80% after about half and hour.
I did normal browsing only..
Next the worst thing I had experienced is the screen rotation. Personally it took my note 3 about 3 to 4 seconds to rotate the screen.. This is really unacceptable.. my previous note 2 had almost instantaneous screen rotation.. And the speaker quality on note 3 is really bad as compared to note 2.. the bass is flat and not even pleasurable to listen songs on note 3's speakers...
Next the screen. Yes I agree its much sharper than note 2 but its saturation of colour is just so flat, nothing to be impressed...
Anyway dont shoot me down immediately or throw tantrums at me yet..
I did not even install many apps yet and I cant imagine what would happen down the road with more apps.. This is from what I experienced within a day.. And last but not least the loading page on the note 3 when browsing is so bad.. everytime I rotate have to wait 4 seconds and when it finally decides to rotate, it had white screen which implies incomplete loading of the page.. and even after it had finished loading.. when I rotate the screen to a different orientation, the buffering white page appeared...
As for me, I would personally feel that overall the note 2 is still a better choice despite inferior to note 3's specs..
Anyway I would like to know if anybody had experienced this before and would like to share your experiences here.. and please dont shoot me down.. Thanks.. this is my humble opinion only..
*
Battery life is iffy even for me, but I think your unit has a problem with the rotation....never have it on mine.

Loading slow???? Mine is blazing especially on 4G....

I suggest you perform a factory reset and try again.

I still get the same SOT as my Note2. Wonder why I can't ever hit 6 hours.....

Note 3 cable is different from Note 2.  The Note 2 USB connector can't hook up to Note 3 phone.

Any standard microusb cable can be used for charging. See pic in post 3, Specs > Microusb 3.

I suggest you read page 1 and watch some of the videos.

You should get facts correct. However you are at least a little above someone else.

Anyone managed to get the S View cover already?

Went to Gardens and 1Utama today, both no stock. Samsung 1Utama said 10 units came in but was sold out by the time I got there.

I was at Cheras Maluri Jusco...the Samsung center there had stock.

The Samsung center was formerly a Nokia outlet....RIP Nokia.

Whatever anyone says, i will still say ffs, get a case that *encloses* your device. Those that leave the top and bottom bezels exposed are also largely useless.

I also want SGP neo hybrid, but I think it is pre-order only.

Waiting someone kind enough to bulk it.
As I posted very detailed information few pages earlier.

No dents nor chips whatsoever eventhough I heard a solid thump. Fell a about 2 ft from the couch.

Does the screen still need to be replaced together with the digitizer as well? If it is like the note 2, replacing the cracked screen will be expensive...
*
Note1 and Note2 screens assemblies with digitizers were both rm700. I believe Note3 should be no different.

Either pay approx 150-250 for a GOOD and PROPER casing or 700 per occurrence of cracked screen. Or 1/day for insurance.

The choice is yours.
