The tip of the stylus can be picked up even if it’s just hovering above the phone’s screen, resulting in more precise drawing and selections. The S Pen is long enough to be held, fits firmly in its slot and is comfortable in use.
Camera

With Image Stabilization, the pictures taken will be crisp and sharp, discounting shaky hands. The secondary 2 MP comes with smart stabilization.
The dual camera support lets you use both the camera simultaneously while recording and taking a picture. It captures precious moments in full HD mode.
Battery
The battery life of the new phablet is lot longer than expected. This is due to 3,200 mAh battery fitted in Note 3 which is around 100 mAh higher than its father. Another reason for its better life span is the Qualcomm chip called an envelope tracker which dynamically reduces the amount of power consumption as much as by 30 percent.
