The 5.3 inch screen of the Galaxy Note has led the mobile phone into the era of large screen. The Galaxy Note II has been upgraded to 5.5 inches, and the latest generation of Galaxy Note 3 has reached 5.7 inches. In addition to the larger screen, the Galaxy Note 3 also adds advanced features such as Exynos 5420, USB 3.0, and 3G Ram. Without delay, we will play Galaxy Note 3 now.
appearance
The packaging style of Galaxy Note 3 is exactly the same as that of Galaxy S4. Of course, the volume will be larger ▼
There is relevant introduction information behind. We got the international version N900, with a capacity of 16G, using Exynos 5420 1.9GHz "4+4" processor ▼
Open the package, and you can see the truth of Galaxy Note 3 ▼
Like the Galaxy S4, the Galaxy Note 3 screen also has a black protective sticker ▼
The transparent protective sticker on the back has the method of opening the cover and using microUSB. Since the Galaxy Note 3 is added to USB3.0 for the first time, the interface is somewhat different from that in the past. This description is also for "foolproof" ▼
The style of the front of the fuselage gives up the sleekness represented by Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S4, and is more like the return of Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note
As the Galaxy Note 3 uses a narrow border design, the body width is even narrower than that of the 5.5 inch Galaxy Note II, and it is not too much pressure to hold the small knitting hand ▼
The design on the top is known to be made by Samsung even without looking at the logo ▼
The bottom still has the symbolic entity Home key, while the menu and the return touch keys are on both sides of the Home key ▼
Galaxy Note3 uses the full HD Super AMOLED, and the screen is still beautiful ▼
The design of the back of Note 3's fuselage is controversial. It is actually a kind of leather plastic pattern, but it is actually plastic material ▼
S pen ▼ can be pulled out from the lower right corner of the fuselage
There is a 13 million pixel stack camera on the top, aperture F2.2, and parameters are exactly the same as Galaxy S4 ▼
The border material of Galaxy Note 3 is still plastic like that of Galaxy S4, but some stripes are added to increase the friction to a certain extent, and the volume key ▼ is still on the left
On the right side is the switch key. In addition, there is a slot beside it. You can use it to open the back cover ▼
Another tradition of Galaxy series, removable cover+replaceable battery, has certainly been inherited ▼
The information on the back of the fuselage is SM-N900 with a capacity of 16G. What about 32G?
This time, the card slot design is quite special. SIM card and tf card are stacked together, which makes people doubt its service life ▼
There are still infrared sensors, noise reducing microphones and 3.5mm headphone connectors ▼ on the top
At the bottom is a speaker, microUSB 3.0 interface and main microphone, which is also the first mobile phone to use USB 3.0 technology ▼
Finally, let's look at the accessories. This time, the packaging box is still divided into two layers ▼
Accessories include charger, USB cable, headset, pen clip ▼
The model of the charger is also different from that of the past. The charging current is 2.0A ▼
Since Galaxy Note 3 supports USB 3.0, the data cable must also conform to the standard ▼
The Galaxy Note 3 comes with five pen tips that can be easily replaced with the included clip, which also extends the service life of the S Pen. It seems that Samsung is very confident and thinks that users will always use this pen ▼
UI
Galaxy Note 3 uses the latest TouchWiz, based on Android 4.3, and the wallpaper is more colorful ▼
Unlock interface ▼
The drop-down bar is also the same as Galaxy S4 ▼
The setting interface has been changed to some extent. The option setting is different from that of Galaxy S4, which is obviously inappropriate. The user finally got used to the layout of GS4's setting menu, and now it has been changed again, increasing the learning cost ▼
System information ▼
Android 4.3▼
Of course, the most popular improvement of Android 4.3 is OpenGL ES 3.0. Of course, the only game that supports it now is Wild Racing 8, which has yet to be developed. It can also be seen that the GPU is Mali-T628 (actually Mali-T628MP6, six cores) ▼
Start up Ram. Under Samsung's "memory destruction technology", a total of 2.66G Ram is available at about 1.6G, which is acceptable ▼
The available ROM is 11.75G, which is much better than the 8G of the Galaxy S4 in the early days, but it is still not enough (call again: the 32G is good!) ▼
More functions will be added to S Pen this time. A shortcut disc ▼ will appear after pulling out S Pen
Cut and paste, you can share some screenshots ▼
Screenshot graffiti, this function also has ▼ on Note II
The built-in application part supports the floating window, and the biggest feature of this floating window is that it can be adjusted and moved at will, which is very convenient ▼
Hardware performance
What we use here is Exynos 5420 The version of is different from the common versions of the Bank of China, such as Note3 and N9005. Other versions are used 800 2.3Ghz。
Anrabbit 4.0.1
This rabbit doesn't need much introduction, just have a look. The total score is still at the high-end level, but the CPU score is not ideal. The 3D score is good, breaking 10000 ▼
GFXBench 2.7.2
The performance is very ideal. In the test of version 2.7, it is second only to the E330S, and is similar to other Snapdragon 800 phones. However, version 2.5 has set a new high for mobile phones, and is even stronger than the Snapdragon 800 phones ▼
3DMark（Unlimited）
Graphic score and Snapdragon 800 There are gaps, but the physics score is very good with the 1.9GHz Cortex-A15 ▼
BaseMark X
It is weaker than Snapdragon 800, but stronger than Tegra 4 ▼
Graph Performance Comparison Chart
Pi has almost broken through 30s, but it is still a little short
Sunspider 1.0.1 (Chrome Beta V30 test)
Basically at the same level as Xiaomi 3, it is not ideal for the frequency of 1.9GHz ▼
Google Octane V1
This performance is quite strong, even surpassing the iPhone 5S ▼ with the support of iOS7 and Safari
Next, let's talk about the frequency reduction problem. For the Exynos 5420, it is difficult to maintain the high frequency of 1.9GHz all the time. However, through the observation of soft video, it is found that Samsung's processing method this time is very different from common mobile phones. Usually, what we call "high temperature frequency reduction" is that the CPU load is high, and after reaching a certain temperature threshold, the CPU frequency reduction occurs. However, users often need high performance at this time, so excessive frequency reduction is not a good phenomenon. Our common high frequency A15 and Krait cores will maintain high frequency at the beginning, reduce the CPU frequency to varying degrees, and then maintain low frequency. The Exynos 5420 on the Galaxy Note 3 has a slightly different situation. In the one and a half minute soft solution video test, the frequency will constantly switch from high frequency to low frequency, and the number of frames will certainly change. But most of the time it is still at the highest frequency of 1.9GHz, often falling to 1GHz, and the lowest time it even goes to 650MHz... The average number of frames after running the test is 43 frames. Exynos 5420 frequency instability is also rare. I don't know whether this is Samsung's intention or the defect of kernel scheduling. I hope that even if the kernel is improved, the frequency will not suddenly drop to 650MHz. In addition, this is only the case of soft video, and the CPU frequency changes in more scenes need to be observed.
One and a half minutes of video averages 43 frames ▼
With regard to the heating condition, Galaxy Note 3 is in line. After running Modern War 4 for 20 minutes, the maximum temperature of the front side is 45 ℃, and the back side is 43 ℃ ▼
Finally, put some samples of Galaxy Note 3. From the samples, the daytime performance is still very strong ▼
This time, Galaxy Note 3 cancels the night view mode in the scene mode. In fact, we just need to turn on anti shake to get the effect of night view mode. The actual shooting effect seems that the details are pretty good, but the color is obviously red ▼
