Sifu is coming!!!  rclxms.gif

I can't make a good comparison as I've never gotten more than 5 hrs on the Note2. Wait for benny888 tongue.gif

I used the note 2 for almost a year, the first time you get the note 3 and turn it on you'd go WOW. The screen is just that much sharper, especially on such a huge screen. It's so much snappier, although you won't notice it in whatsapp and fb for some reason hmm.gif Camera is much improved, especially at night, the thing actually focuses properly, as compared to the note 2 which just keeps searching for AF lock. Battery however.. after 2 days, I find that the note 3 is more power hungry than the note 2 sad.gif This could be cause I had a custom rom on the note 2 though, I was getting 6/7 hours of screen on time every day, with 18 hours of it being on. With the note 3 I'm only getting 4/5 hours cry.gif HOWEVER, this is still my third day with the phone, and maybe it's cause I use the camera a lot throughout the day, and now I tend to watch youtube videos cause of the LTE. So there you have it, a simple comparison blush.gif

hm.... still wondering to get note 3 or S4 better

If S4 & Note3 release same time with same price, could be 90% buyer will choose Note3 even the size bigger.

Yeah. Need to press harder at the S-Pen top and long term it might cause the chrome (is it paint?) to peel off. sweat.gif

Yes, my Note II actually had the same issue as well and the paint did come out a bit, not visible...
I'm afraid the same thing happens to this Note 3 again. doh.gif

I have been using scrapbook to collect all user testimonies so far. Tonight I'll dump it all in post 4. The new s pen functionality is incredibly incredibly useful.

wasn't too much of a Spen user but with Air Command, I can see myself wanting to use it more.
The downside, the Spen is so damn difficult to remove now  mad.gif

Could we put/spray WD40/white grease(sikit je!) at Spen hole to make the Spen remove easier. hmm.gif

so does signing in the Dropbox in Note 3 extend the expiry date of your existing free Dropbox space from your previous Samsung devices (S3, S4, Note, etc)?

I got 76GB free from Dropbox!!
50GB from signing in Note 3 and 25GB from HTC One X a year ago.
They don't extend the expiry but they give you extra space, each with its own expiry.

Not scared your hands will be greasy too?
Its tight because the S-Pen head there got a ledge to snap the pen, keeping it from dropping out.
Though its harder to pull out, but I don't really mind biggrin.gif

Does the Note 3 charges up much faster than Note 2? I had a Note 2 before last year and found the charging took long time, especially with power bank.

Yes, you got the extra 50GB from Note 3 coz you did not get the 50GB (actually is 48GB) free from a previous Samsung device. But if you already have a 48GB bonus space (2 years expiry date) from your Note 1 or Note 2, you will NOT get another 48GB more. So i just want to confirm whether instead of giving additional space, do they at least extend the 2 years expiry date from the date we sign in to Note 3.

Charges at about the same rate, unless you start using it. I haven't tried charging with a powerbank though..

Actually about the Spen being "too-tight" to remove, i heard that it would eventually loosen up and it wouldn't be as difficult to remove it.

It's the way they design the ridges at the top. It looks nicer but not practical to easily remove the S-Pen from the silo.
