The Galaxy Note 3, and its companion device the Galaxy Gear smart watch, is now on sale across Australia.
If you’re wondering whether it’s worth upgrading from the Note 2, or even the original Note, we’ve compiled a quick rundown of the important specs.
For our money, the Galaxy Note 3 is undoubtedly the best of the series, albeit a little pricier than we might have wanted. The stylus functions are better integrated than ever, and even though it’s got the biggest screen of the three, it’s also the lightest and thinnest.
You can take a look at some of the pricing plans from the various carriers here.
