Note 3 in hand soon...questions need answered?

shogunvsgsp · Sep 6, 2013

So...the verizon page lists the N3 as taking 1080p video. I have seen a youtube video of someone taking 4k video with one. Will this feature not be available on US (or verizon) versions or was this an oversight on the part of verizon?

If it was less ridiculous than the S4 launch then that's progress

LMAO! I actually enjoyed that ridiculous launch.

Same with AT&T. Copied from there specs page:

Live video capture and playback: 1080p HD

So did I as well as this last one, but one day it will get to the point that the music stops, a guy gets on stage and the big screen behind him shows the specs and he screams into the mic, "thats it folks, deal with it" and storms out lol

So what's the availability of this with Metropcs? I'm assuming it won't be sold to metro.

May take a little longer, but I wouldn't discount it as they are offering the S4 now.

I've been hearing that 4K recording capabilty and 24-bit sound are features built in to the SoC from the Snapdragon 800. I'm also hearing the LTE versions of the Note 3 will have Snapdragon 800 and 3G version (emerging markets) will have the Octacore SoC.

So, out of curiosity, I stopped by Sprint to see if they had any cluevon release, but also slipped in a question regarding the 64gb and the rep made a good point that I forgot about past 32 and 64 versions. They mentioned it is usually online only exclusive. Still holding out hope I can pick it up at best buy, if offered, but I don't mind the 32gb consolation prize.

Mr. Ed

Have you managed to get the Note 3 in your hand yet???

dalumberjack · Sep 8, 2013

If you do get it in hand, my only question would be is the usb port really usb 3.0?

No video mentions it, no review mentions it. Only one or two articles talk about it, but that's a far cry from confirmation in my opinion.

also a confirmation of a NFC chip since verizon's website doesn't mention it either.

Not yet. Waiting for final product to be delivered to my friend.

Thank you all for continuing to fuel the thread with really good questions!

Gearu · Sep 9, 2013

Does it have FM radio? heh. I heard it does.

The_Chief · Sep 9, 2013

Not sure about FM radio... it's not in Samsung's specs. I know it has 192 KHz, 24 bit audio support. Just like the G2. Now to find an audio source that PLAYS it!

I also know it supports 802.11ac wifi speed, making it the first ac device on my ac home wifi network. N-speed devices scream with this thing (faster than 4G now)... I can't imagine how fast things will load with this!

However, whats up with this Samsung KNOX thing? I'd love to find out more about it, as I have banking and other secure stuff that I would love to lock down tighter.

If this thing comes with FM radio too, then what's left for it to do? Print money? Build an island, transform into a jet and fly you there?

blopeco · Sep 9, 2013

I have been reading the Note 3 might have a Pen Tile screen matrix. Althought high ppi, I will pass if it is pentile. I cannot stand any pentile tech

. Let us hope it is not.

I thought ppi and screen type were in the presentation?

Mr. Ed said:

You are correct. They were. Amoled for sure, but can't remember exact ppi. Definitely higher than note 2, lower than s4 (expected due to increased screen size).

EDIT
Just realized, both mentioned in the Note 2 vs. Note 3 spec thread I started
http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?t=763766

john248 · Sep 9, 2013

I'd rather it not have pentile, however everything else this phone brings is worth it. Otherwise it's go to a different phone with less features that I'd like to use. I'm looking forward to scrapbook.

cosmosan · Sep 9, 2013

I haven't actually gone out and compared a pentile screen to a non-pentile screen at these high ppi's yet, but is it really even distinguishable with normal viewing/usage?

At 386 ppi, that seems too high for pentile vs. non-pentile to make a difference. For me at least...

dalumberjack · Sep 9, 2013

thought this was interesting

I posted my question on Verizon.com about usb 3.0 and NFC chip. Samsung support actually answered and this is what they said:

Hi Dalumberjack,

Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, we cannot speculate on unreleased products or specs. Thank you and have a great day!

Sincerely,

Samsung Support

um.... How is this unreleased? They just had one of the biggest coming out parties anyone could have and yet they still don't want to comment on stuff?

breadnatty08 · Sep 9, 2013

Wow, pretty sure it has both.
