got my white unit AND nexus 7 (2013) from aaronac in ss15 subang jaya on saturday.
overall buying experience was so-so only.

the older brother is steady, but the younger one is like a pondan, told me that once box is opened, cannot return/change.  doh.gif

since i had not paid, farked him until his older bro came out and apologize.

took my time to check, first for scratches and other physical defects. then used *#00*# to make sure everything was fine. forced them to give free diamond sp and cheap casing for the fuss that pondan brother made... thumbup.gif

decided not to get microsd card as it is insecure and data loss is high risk.

here's a brief summary (changed from using iPhone 5).
this is my first android phone so pls forgive me.

1) bigger screen (but not comfortable to hold. mirrored myself and it looked silly holding such a big slab next to the ear).
2) s-pen looks and feel cheap. similar to holding matchstick.
3) removing s-pen is clumsy bcos finger will touch the part of the screen near to the s-pen slot.
4) leather feel is so tacky! wondered why they didn't spray the leather smell on it as well.
5) overall interface not so smooth as iPhone 5. still got lag at the homescreen and scrolling.
6) multi-window is cumbersome bcos of smallish screen.
7) action memo, scrap book, and s-find seems great.

...to be continued

hope note4 can have 64 bit proc, s-touch (like touchID) and gold color brows.gif

If you have problems with 1 then i guess you can remain with a 4" device so you can look magical...

Me too. I just realized this morning when I charged the phone there's no beep sound indicating that the phone is charging. Guess note 3 doesnt have that beep sound for charging.

Will wait until 5s reached here. Maybe sell off or give to my staff.

But after watching tutorial, s pen functions are interesting.
*
Well the s pen is the reason for the note's existence. Anyway i hope you will enjoy it more after using the s pen.

Please add yourself via the form in post 4 and read page 1 since it's your first android.

Bcos screen area is big, have to wipe it on my shirt each time after call.
Working under hot sun makes face very sweaty and oily.

Camera seems great. Will test out more...

I hope you will become a happy user of the note3. Do ask if you have questions but read page 1 first.
