At the moment Galaxy Note 3 is arguably the world’s most powerful smartphone and the best of its class. It has maintained the same frame size with a large 5.7″ display than the Galaxy Note 2, but it is slimmer and lighter with a more comfortable grip. When Samsung first introduced the Note Series, the questions were all about the size and how to carry it around.  At the time many wondered whether it was a phone or tablet but that is no longer the case as more people continue to  transfer the computing functions from the Personal computers to mobile devices.

From the look of it Samsung believe that Data is the next big thing if not already the big thing in the country and they are working towards giving the customers the best experience possible in a mobile device. Due to the size, the screen and the speed of the phone the user experience on Galaxy Note 3 is second to none. The most amazing part of the phone is the Multitasking aspect, which has been redefined by the Multiwindow feature. The dual screen mode allows users to open adjacent Windows in I consider the true meaning of multitasking. Users can run a number of apps at the same time in different windows, drag and drop app from one window to the other. It is also possible to navigate recent apps when the phone is Multi Window mode.

When Samsung launched Galaxy S4, early this  year, they introduced something called ADH (Accidental Damage from Handling). For the Galaxy Note 3 , Samsung  has a announced a revamped ADH. Speaking during the launch, Samsung Electronics East Africa Chief Operating Officer, Mr Robert Ngeru said:

“I am excited to announce that our consumers will enjoy a revamped Accidental Damage from handling warranty dubbed Samsung Premium, which has three elements; Smart swap, ADH and Smart value”
