I have used samsung galaxy note 3 so I know that this phone is not bad it has very good features and very good camera its only bad thing now is that now everyone recognize it as old phone but I think that this is still better than some latest phones the first thing I was attracted to this phone was beacuse of its camera and the screen llikely to say big screen I have used white one so thats good for me but if you want u can even use black and the sound system for a 2013 model is decent and many other features like Snote, Spen and u rven have peel smart remote which u can use for ur house and office tv and ac.
