The Galaxy Note 3 is the successor to the Galaxy Note II smartphone launched last year. The new phone features an even bigger 5.7-inch full HD Super AMOLED (1920 x 1080) screen, improved stylus functions, a 13-megapixel rear camera and faster data connection than the conventional 4G network. Samsung added enhanced security solution KNOX to the phone.

The gadget comes with a new addition, the S pen, designed to be fully functional as a communication driver between the phone and the user by creating essential input and control features.

Speaking on the new offering, Vineet Taneja, country head, Samsung mobile and IT, said, "The Galaxy Note 3 represents the next evolution of the Galaxy note experience. It meets the needs of consumers for a smarter larger screen, makes everyday life easier by S pen, and is much slimmer, lighter, more powerful and comes with a beautiful design."
