Galaxy-Note-3-Gear-ad

Samsung has today posted an official TV commercial featuring the new Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Gear. The 30-second clip highlights the handset’s new faux leather backing, how its S Pen stylus can be used to “take action instantly,” and a number of TouchWiz features like AirCommand and Multi Window.

There’s also a brief glimpse at the Galaxy Note 3’s official Smart View case.

Samsung’s flagship smartphones have been a big success ever since the hugely popular Galaxy S II, so it’s no surprise to see the latest is doing well. Since making its debut back in April, the Galaxy S4 has surpassed 40 million sales worldwide, according to Samsung CEO JK Shin.

The Samsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch is currently only compatible with the Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy S4, but of course, if Samsung wants to get it into as many hands as possible, it’s going to need to change that. So it’s no surprise to see it will soon be compatible with the rest of the Galaxy S4 variants, and the Galaxy Mega as well.

While the Galaxy Note 3 has received rave reviews since it went on sale last month, it’s has its fair share of bad press, too.

First there was the region lock, which means the device must be activated with certain SIM cards in certain markets to function correctly — and then it became apparent that the device has a locked flash counter that makes using custom ROMs close to impossible without voiding the handset’s warranty.

Now users are reporting that the device is suffering from random restarts and boot loops, and no one knows what’s causing them.

Galaxy-Note-3-apps

While the Galaxy Note 3’s massive display may not be for you, you may wish to run some of the handset’s built-in apps on your smaller Galaxy S4. Fortunately, there are developers out there who are hard at work porting them over, and you can download and install a number of them now.
