The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 hit shelves on Friday, Oct. 4. Android's latest device is now available for AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless users.

So far, it's gotten mixed reviews but what most are talking about is the size of the phone (or "phablet"-- a phone in which the display is bigger than 5 inches.) The 5.7 inch screen is much bigger than most smartphones of its kind that are usually between 4.7 and 5 inches. It also comes with an S pen stylus.

The Next Web said the Note 3 is "one of the best Android handsets money can buy, if you can hold it."

The phone also has a unique feature that's not talked about too much.

"This is one of the first mobile devices to offer a USB 3.0 port which doubles as the charging port...The bonus is that the transfer between your computer and phone should be a lot quicker."

The size might be an inconvenient feature for users' pockets and difficult to use with one hand, The Guardian reported that it's "bigger, faster and with great battery life."

It has a similar design setup to its predecessor --Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

However, Samuel Gibbs of The Guardian isn't a fan of the material used to make the device. He wrote, "Samsung has given the Note 3 a fake leather back reminiscent of a cheap "pleather" sofa. I wouldn't call that an upgrade. Combined with chromed and ridged plastic edges, it makes Note 3 feel anything but premium."

ZDNET named it the " world's most capable Android smartphone."

It's compared to the Note 3 as more durable and applauds its large screen.

"That is exactly what it is designed to be..It offers the perfect experience for productivity, media, social, networking and browsing needs."

The contract price of the phone is $300 to $350. The full price is $700.
