The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 may have been superseded by the excellent Galaxy Note 4, but last year’s top phablet is now cheaper than ever, making it a great value alternative if you don’t want to shell out for its newer, shinier cousin.
At time of writing, SIM-free handsets now cost around £350, with contracts starting from around £35 a month with nothing to pay upfront for unlimited calls and texts and 4GB of 4G data. This is cheaper than the currently £469 SIM-free Note 4, although the gap has narrowed considerably between the two. If you you can push your budget slightly further, the Note 4 is no longer completely out of reach.
