Possessor of a Note 2, I use it to give my impressions of this Note 3 Neo, "light" version of Note 3.
The Note 3 Neo is the perfect alternative to expensive option Note 3 and Note 2 which starts dating physically ...
The 6-core Exynos processor house offers excellent performance for everyday use, even in the "Power Save". Its architecture reminds of me Tegra 3 ... Indeed, some hearts are for current tasks while the other part of the heart (less energy) is dedicated to the background process.
The amount of RAM is increased to 1.76 GB, 1 GB of office monopolized by the system ... The arrival of Kitkat should ease a bit from RAM occupied by the system ... It is designed for nothing but currently, either OTA or by USB and Kies.
The battery is consistent and intensive use, autonomy easily spend the day and a half.
The camera is of good quality. Two identical photos taken at the same time with the Neo Note 3 and Note 2 give an advantage to Note 3 Neo ... Indeed, its camera module captures more detail and it generates less digital noise ... I however noted that an autofocus "patina" a little on the Note 3 Neo.
Some light microfreezes but which I think are put on the account of TouchWizz a thousand miles an Android Stock. Disable unnecessary Samsung Apps allows you to return to a less "polluted" environment, more responsive.
After installing my usual applications, I found significant lags and very troublesome blockages of the interface ... So I proceed now to an installation one by one of my applications to determine which causes those annoying lags if ... I'll bet on the Facebook application - coded with the feet -.
The finish is excellent. While all plastic, it is the most beautiful effect. Of course, it is far from the impression of high-end mobile like the HTC One M8 ... But the Note 3 Neo is lightweight, more than the Note 2.
The screen is beautiful, as any AMOLED screen! Oddly, although announced at 5.5 inches, it is smaller than the Note 2, also announced 5.5 "(2mm less and height).
Although these are only a 1280x720px screen, so non-HD, the pixel density is more than enough to read without zooming. In-addition, the number of pixels smaller benefits autonomy.
The effort that brought Samsung to integrate this screen is impressive as the edges are thin. Next, the Galaxy S3 seems archaic ...
On Antutu (Application Benchmark), the Note 3 Neo is doing better than the Note 2 is obvious. This is very visible in the CPU or RAM scores, but is obvious in the rendering of 3D sequences where the number of frames / second is higher. The fluidity in 3D is really nice, the finer textures and aliasing almost invisible.
In sum, the Note 3 Neo is a very upscale PHABLET in benefits but at a reasonable price. It was worth the money.
