About the Product
The revolutionary design of the Galaxy S8 begins from the inside out. We rethought every part of the phone's layout to break through the confines of the smartphone screen. So all you see is pure content and no bezel. It's the biggest, most immersive screen on a Galaxy smartphone of this size. And it's easy to hold in one hand.
The Galaxy Note 3 lets you see more and do more, with a beautiful 5.7 inch HD screen, S Pen input and powerful battery. It also communicates seamlessly with the galaxy gear so you never miss calls, texts and email alerts.
