    Actually thinking about the note 3 as it was only 400 at scan.

    There's an Google play edition of the lg that's just came out waiting to see how much that is.

    They have been times when I have considered the Nexus 5 for the stock Android experience as I quite like it. But formely having a 5s and quite a few phones I like the screen size of the Note series although I don't care much for Touchwiz. And I like the battery life of the Note series.

    That's not to say the Note 3 is without flaws it has quite a few just like any other phone. Although one has been addressed via getting a Spigen neo geo case for it.

    I think the Note 3 build is terrible and extremely tacky. Although by using plastic it incredibly light which I like. But having bought the case for it, it has really improved the the feel of it just by putting a case on.

    And strange as this sounds even though it has a bigger screen than the Note 2 it's lighter and thinner.

    As for the LG google play edition I have been looking at this but haven;t seen a side by side comparison via youtube against the ipad mini retina and nexus 7 2013 I am not so sure now. While the specs on it are totally fine the screen seem incredibly dim compared to the aformentioned two.

    I love the ipad mini retina and the nexus 7 2013 as both were great devices. But as much as it pains me to say this the ipad mini retina was significantly more powerful than say the nexus 7 2013. So the Lg g pad google play edition tickles my fancy but the lack of screen brightness is a concern truth be told.
