The mobile phone that can do everything - BergensAvisen

[Amobil.no] The new version of the Samsung Galaxy Note is enough once thinner, lighter and significantly faster than its predecessor.

screen is larger with higher resolution, and the camera is extensively upgraded. Nevertheless, Galaxy Note 3 only 0.1 millimeters higher, while it is actually 0.7 millimeters thinner than its predecessor. In this package, Samsung has also made room for a battery on the 3200 mAh.


Design Change is in the back

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 looks like a Samsung mobile. The corners are a little less round and the field above and below the screen has become narrower. But the distinctive menu key below the screen is still there. It is also shortcut fields on each side of the key. But in Note 3, the symbols that show key’s function only visible when the screen is lit.

the side of the phone there is a shiny metal frame with stripes in. The strips should be inspired by a notebook with multiple sheets in. This becomes more apparent if you use one of the new covers to protect the screen.

A leather, plastic

The back of the phone is plastic, but the glossy plastic Samsung has used in the past. Now plastic embossed so it looks like leather, with a “seam” along the edge. When we keep the phone feels the back is not quite like leather, but rather as a little hard type of artificial leather.

surface is comfortable and provides a good grip. Moreover, it is easy to wipe off stains and it provides are exclusive touch.

There are those who prefer the plastic looks like plastic, and who believe that anything that is not authentic item is considered cheating. In this case, we believe the design change is for the better.


Removable Cover

casing can be picked off so you can access the battery. Also the SIM card of a MicroSIM, and memory card of the type MicroSD, is located under this cover. The phone supports memory cards up to 64 GB, but the memory card is not included.

keys and ports are located as its predecessor, with the main switch on the upper right side, output on top of the phone, and the volume key on the top left side. These keys are located so that it is easy to operate them while holding the phone to your ear.

The pen is sitting under the phone, which also features a speaker and a Micro-USB port.

USB 3.0

USB port is a little different than what you see on other mobile phones and USB cable included in the box is also special. You can use a standard Micro-USB cable, but the plug on the cable Samsung’ve attached is about twice as wide as a standard Micro-USB connector.

connector makes it possible to transmit data at high speed from other machines with support for USB 3.0. The connector also makes it possible to transmit video in 4K resolution to a TV that supports this (2160p), but then you need a special MHL transition.

4K is the standard that will replace Full HD (1080p). It provides four times sharper TV pictures than Full HD.Bunnpluggen adapted USB 3.0.


Wonderful AMOLED display

Samsung Note 3 have wall-to-wall screen of 5.7 inches and based on the screen size of the ports tab board mobile. The compact design and low weight make sure we still could well envisage that many will use Note 3 as a replacement for a regular smartphone.

screen of the Galaxy Note 3 is not only larger but also significantly better than in Note 2 It is easy to read even in sunlight, great for movies, and generally very pleasant to behold. But we should not deny that the sharp contrasts and clear colors in length can be seen as well intense.

This can compensate for the settings. Here you can select a display mode that suits your taste, such as professional image, which brings more natural colors. The phone can also automatically optimize the color range, saturation and brightness depending on the application you use. This only works in Samsung’s own applications.

Samsung uses AMOLED technology, where each point in the image consists of green, red and blue subpixels. The red and blue sub pixels are organized in a diamond pattern on the green points, with twice as many green pixels as there are red and blue. Pixel density is optimized and the finest details of the image becomes clear.

We note that the screen has a slightly bluish. This marks the first and foremost you compare the screen side by side with phones that have good LCDs.

Similarly, the dark fields on an AMOLED screen completely dark. There is no backlight leakage between quartz crystals, as on LCD screens. Thus, the contrast absolutely superb.


Touch Wiz interface and pen

Samsung Galaxy 3 features Touch Wiz interface. Samsung has developed and refined this for years, and we are of the opinion that the Touch Wiz phone gives added value. This model can also control additional functions without touching the phone.

A sensor sees the movements you make with your hands, while another follows your gaze. Here you can browse images by waving your hand over the phone, or you can scroll up and down web pages by moving your eyes.

Hand Swipe the air works tolerably well, while scrolling using gaze still not working as well as we could hope for. You have to tilt the phone, or lift his head quite significant for it to work.

It does not always work the way we expect, and it’s a pain when the website at irregular intervals starts scrolling across the screen without getting stopped. Function can thankfully be turned off.


Ingesting same orientation as you do

camera on the front of the phone looks of your eyes and keep the screen on while you read it. It’s smart, and it works. It requires proper enough that there is some light in the room. A clever detail is that the phone look if your eyes are level or placed vertically.

That way you can lie on the page and browse the web without the gyro controlled screen orientation rotate the image across the direction you read in.

Air Command

The pen that comes with the Samsung Galaxy 3 is more precise than ever. A new pop-up appears on the screen when you take out your pen. Quick menu called “Air Command” and has links to action notes, scrapbooks, screen writing, S Finder window and pen.

Action Notes allows you to associate actions to the notes you do with the pen. You can call by entering a number by hand, searching for addresses, e-mail, google entries you write by hand, etc. In Note 2 to enter formulas and have them figured out. Now the functionality is significantly enhanced.


Scrapbooks for many purposes

You can tag pages, image elements, Youtube videos and much more with the pen, and then save your brands in a scrapbook. You can have many scrapbooks, and you can share contents.

Screen Writing is a function of the person who will write a note on top of a screenshot. The image you send to your contacts, share on social sites, or save for later use.

S-finder lets you search for solution to the formulas you enter. You can also search for symbols. Penn Window is the function that allows you to draw a square on the screen, and then open an application in this square.

Keeping the pen in the air a few inches above the screen, it pops up a text explaining the function that underlies the various menu options. (ANB)
