There's no question that Samsung's Galaxy Note is big
But despite its huge size
It actually feels a lot slimmer than the previous version. Samsung's reduced the bezels on the latest version of the Note
So that despite a larger 5.7-inch screen
The footprint remains almost identical - and it still measures up at just a slim 8mm thick. Despite its size
It doesn't feel hefty at all
Although it'

DESIGN AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS
At first glance
The
Very big
Cheap faux leather back
Not cheap
Mostly aesthetic
Frustrating and clumsy Touchwiz user interface
Ugly faux leather backplate
Cheap-looking design
Ugly design on phone rear and most of the S Pen stylus features are pointless
Skeumorphic physical design will not be to everyone's tastes
Enormous size will be cumbersome for most
Expensive
Camera doesn't impress in low light
Vast amounts of settings will be confusing for Android novices
Nothing new to shout about
Niche product.
No stunning new features

Jury is out on the plastic/fauxleather combo
Large size not for everyone
Samsung phones are often derided for their plastic construction - it may be more durable than a HTC One Max or an iPhone 5s but pretty it is not. To make matters worse
The glossy back cover is gone
Instead
There's a dire faux-leather back piece that gives you a little bit more grip
But still feels cheap - especially when you're peeling it off to insert your microSD or SIM card. The phone's ov
Mediocre camera in low lighting
Speakers
Low volume/quality
Still too big for constant one-handed use
Design and build could be more premium
Wireless charging without the extra cost would have been nice
Speaker could be better
Colours can be oversaturated in video and photos
Too much Samsung bloatware
Poor low-light camera performance
Complicated to use
S Pen still doesn't feel like a must-have feature
Abundance of added features will be overwhelming for many

A. HTC One maxHTC的UltraPixel相機，強調有三倍的進光量，的確是在夜間拍攝時可以發揮效用，不過也使得亮處容易過曝。One max跟同樣採用UltraPixel的New One、One mini、Butterfly S一樣，強項都在夜間、室內或是近拍等場景，28mm廣角也是表現較為突出的一個項目。一般日拍的表現，跟其它旗艦機相較之下沒有太大優勢，反而是HTC Zoe與Video Highlights這兩項應用才是2013年手機的招牌功能。競爭對手的相機表現不斷進步，UltraPixe...
